Rosco Manufacturing Unveils New “Purebred” Precision Barrel Series

Tuesday, December 5th, 2017

December 4th, 2017: Rosco Manufacturing; a proud American manufacturer of high quality gun barrels is proud to announce the launch of their newest line of precision barrels titled The Purebred Series.

Rosco is a manufacturer that produces barrels for some of the biggest gun makers in the industry within their Central Falls, R.I. facility. Rosco has recently focused their talents and years of expertise to produce commercially available barrels that challenge what is currently found in the market.

Purebred Series:

Rosco Manufacturing’s “Purebred” series is a testament to precision and quality manufacturing. We took a step back to see how we could create a barrel line that would be a culmination of all the lessons learned through years of making barrels for our OEM’s. The result is a barrel that will produce 1 MOA results out of the box for any shooter looking to take their skills above and beyond.

Our Purebred barrels are made from scratch in our Rhode Island facility and start life as a blank piece of 416R stainless steel. The blanks are then rifled using our proprietary “Rifling & Polishing method” (which produces a lapped smooth surface finish) before they are mated to their polished Nickel Boron extensions.

Aside from making our own barrel blanks, and barrel extensions, we also hold ourselves to the most stringent quality and performance standards. This is the only way that we can make sure that we are producing a product that will perform time after time under the most demanding conditions. We are setting out to re-define the rules and we plan on letting our work do the talking. Preliminary barrels offered will be in .223 Wylde, & .300 BLK. Options to come soon are .224 Valkyrie, 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Remington, 6mm Creedmoor, .243 Winchester, & .308 Winchester.

“With the success of our Bloodline barrels we felt that it was time to start raising the bar in other categories of the shooting world as well.”, “Our Purebred barrels will be an example of what can be accomplished when you take your time and manufacture a product using the right information coupled with keeping all aspects of production in house. We hope to put an end to the popular trend of farming out a product to then just slap a name on the side.” – Gabriel Cabrera Marketing & Sales Director for Rosco Manufacturing.

QinetiQ Emulates Drone Threat for Royal Canadian Navy

Sunday, December 3rd, 2017

30 November 2017 – QinetiQ Target Systems (QTS) has introduced a new service to the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) by emulating the threat posed to large naval vessels by small multi-rotor drones.

The live demonstration was carried out in November 2017 from a Halifax-class frigate under the C$8.5M Unmanned Targets Repair, Overhaul and Engineering contract, awarded to QTS in 2015.

QTS flew its Snyper multi-rotor target alongside Lockheed Martin’s Indago quadcopter using QinetiQ’s Universal Target Control Station (UTCS), which facilitates the operation of multiple unmanned systems from a single command centre.

The RCN has operated fixed wing aerial targets and marine surface targets using QinetiQ’s UTCS for more than 20 years, but the introduction of rotary wing targets is a first for the service.

Peter Longstaff, Managing Director, QTS, said: “Commercially available technologies, like off-the-shelf drones, are becoming more advanced and more accessible to those who wish to use them to cause harm. QinetiQ simulates these new and emerging threats to help the armed forces understand how to protect their people and assets. This is part of our global strategy to modernise test and evaluation by introducing innovative and advanced capabilities that help nations maintain their advantage over potential adversaries. In Canada, we are committed to supporting the Department of National Defence in achieving its vision of being strong at home, secure in North America, and engaged in the world.”

Simon Nadeau, DNR-2 Unmanned Systems Section Head Commander, RCN, said: “The information and results obtained during the demonstration are vital for the RCN’s development of remotely piloted systems use at sea, and the evaluation of ships’ critical defence systems. We are very pleased with the support that QinetiQ Target Systems provided to us during this demonstration.”

The Snyper target is one of several QinetiQ technologies designed to help customers tackle threats from small unmanned aircraft, including the Obsidian detection system and the laser weapon currently in development by the Dragonfire consortium that will be capable of destroying drones mid-flight.
