Team SIG’s Daniel Horner Takes Top Spot at 2025 SMM 3-Gun Match

Tuesday, March 25th, 2025

NEWINGTON, N.H., (March 24, 2025) – SIG SAUER, Inc. congratulates Team SIG professional shooter Daniel Horner on his first place win at the 2025 Superstition Mountain Mystery 3-Gun Match. This achievement adds to Horner’s historic achievements in 3-gun competition with the MCX-SPEAR LT rifle, following his team gold at IPSC World Shoot and championship title at Multi-Gun Nationals in 2024.

“Daniel’s dominance in 3-Gun competition demonstrates to the world the versatility of the SIG SAUER product lines,” said Robby Johnson, Chief Marketing Officer, SIG SAUER, Inc. “His titles are proof the MCX-SPEAR LT is competition-ready, while the performance and the dependability of the P320 make it the choice of champions.”

At the 2025 Superstition Mountain Mystery 3-Gun Horner competed through eleven stages equipped with his MCX-SPEAR LT rifle and TANGO6T riflescope, P320-DH3 pistol using iron sights, SIG SAUER Match Elite competition ammunition, KILO10K GEN II rangefinding binoculars, and ZULU6 stabilizing binoculars.

“The Superstition Mountain Match draws the best 3-gun competitors from around the world, and this competition was a grind down to the very last shot. I went stage to stage focusing on mindset and knowing that I could depend on my equipment to perform with accuracy and precision,” commented Team SIG professional shooter Daniel Horner.

The MCX-SPEAR LT rifle was developed for an exclusive special operations military program that has since been adopted and fielded throughout the world. In 2022, the SIG SAUER MCX-SPEAR was selected by the U.S. Army for the Next Generation Squad Weapons (NGSW) program, bringing an entirely new level of performance, reliability, and capability to the soldiers. In 2024, the U.S. Army officially began fielding the MCX-SPEAR as the XM7 as the squad rifle replacing the M4.

The SIG SAUER P320 is among the most tested, proven, and successful handguns in recent history with versions being selected as the official sidearm of the U.S., Canadian, Australian, and Danish militaries, among many other military and law enforcement organizations worldwide. SIG SAUER is proud that all branches of the U.S. military carry the M17 and M18, a variant of the P320.

The 2025 Superstition Mystery Mountain 3-Gun was held in Mesa, Arizona, March 14-16, 2025. For more information about the SIG SAUER equipment used by Team SIG Professional Shooter Daniel Horner visit sigsauer.com.

Spectra Group Train Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) to Use Troposcatter MTTS

Sunday, March 23rd, 2025

Spectra Group (UK) Ltd, a specialist provider of secure voice, data and satellite communications systems, has been supporting the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) to enhance their strategic communications expertise, particularly by maximising the capabilities and hence benefits of using Comtech’s Troposcatter Modular Transportable Transmission System (MTTS).

Spectra Group acquired the global distribution rights for Comtech’s Troposcatter Family of Systems (less USA, Canada and Mexico which is retained by Comtech) in 2024 and late last year Spectra Group also announced opening their Australia office to better support the Asia region.

Tropospheric scatter is a communications capability that uses the Troposphere (up to about 13km altitude) to provide high bandwidth communications. It is satellite independent and works in a GPS/GNSS denied environment, so is suitable for use in a Peer-on-Peer conflict/Multi Domain Integration. Troposcatter inherently has very low latency and can provide huge bandwidth, potentially enabling analysis and manipulation of large data, which combined with its low operating cost makes it suitable for strategic down to tactical headquarters. Troposcatter MTTS is the most flexible, rapidly deployable, modular transit case troposcatter system available for when the operational situation demands high power, typically 500W. Key benefits for the AFP include rapid deployability, exceptional mobility and robust performance in challenging environments, enabling critical voice, data, and video communications in situations where traditional infrastructure is unavailable.

Throughout March, Spectra Group has been providing a comprehensive familiarisation and training package to the AFP to ensure that they are not only able to unlock the full capability of their MTTS Troposcatter systems but also embed indigenous knowledge and expertise to maintain the capability for the future.

Shaun Barry, Business Development Manager at Spectra Group said: “We have been working hard over the last couple of years to develop opportunities in the Asia region and this training programme is a good example where we are directly supporting our customers to not only get the best from their equipment now but also sustain that capability into the future. The region is extremely geographically complex which presents multiple strategic communication challenges for security forces and Spectra Group has have a number of superb systems including Troposcatter, SlingShot and soon GENSS that provide the perfect solution to these challenges.”

American Suppressor Association Endorses Senate Introduction of the PARTS Act

Sunday, March 23rd, 2025

WASHINGTON, DC – On Thursday, March 13th, Senator Tim Sheehy (R-MT), joined by seven colleagues in the Senate, introduced the ASA-supported Protecting Americans’ Right to Silence (PARTS) Act as S. 1039. This bipartisan proposal will reform the outdated definition of “firearm silencer” in the Gun Control Act.

“We applaud Senator Sheehy for standing up for the rights of millions of law-abiding gun owners,” said Knox Williams, president and executive director of the American Suppressor Association. “No one should have to have a law degree to understand the technical serialization requirements for a simple hearing protection device. Senator Sheehy has done gun owners a great service by introducing this bill.”

The PARTS Act is co-sponsored by Senators Mike Lee (R-UT), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Pete Ricketts (NE), Ted Budd (R-NC), Steve Daines (R-MT), Jim Justice (R-WV), and John Cornyn (R-TX). Representative August Pfluger (R-TX) introduced the companion bill in the House of Representatives.

Background

PARTS Act refines the definition of a suppressor, narrowing it to cover complete devices or a single essential component, such as a frame or receiver. This shift eliminates the ambiguity of broader terms that have been used in the past, such as “combination of parts,” which has led to regulatory confusion.

The PARTS Act eliminates unnecessary paperwork that the ATF requires upon the purchase of consumable suppressor parts, such as wipes. This would be similar to the process during the purchase of other non-serialized firearm components. The PARTS Act will ensure greater access to these parts for legal suppressor owners.

The bill also addresses and heads off regulatory concerns that were raised in an open letter to the ATF in November 2023, to prevent plans to classify certain suppressor parts as regulated suppressors.

As suppressor wait times reach historic lows, the PARTS Act will better ensure that the growing popularity of suppressed shooting remains accessible and protected under clear, common-sense regulations.

This legislation intends to protect access to the market for everyday people while avoiding the regulatory reversals which have historically hurt consumers across industries.
