SUPERSONIC SHIPPING: Qore Performance Announces Expansion of Pre-Paid Customs Program in Partnership with FedEx

Wednesday, April 20th, 2022

Sterling, VA: As part of their relentless pursuit of creating the best possible customer experience and in response to increased demand from Europe, Qore Performance announced an expansion to their DDP or Delivered Duty Paid program with shipping carrier (and customer) FedEx. This expansion of DDP will allow international customers in DDP-eligible countries to receive their orders directly from Qore Performance in two to five business days, direct to their doorstep.

DDP service leverages FedEx’s incredible air cargo network and allows customers to pre-pay their duties and customs during checkout on the Qore Performance website. The result means FedEx delivers orders directly to the customer. The receiving experience is nearly identical to that of a normal domestic shipment.

“DDP means we handle all logistics and shipping, without making our customers deal with brokers, agents, or bureaucrats. That’s certainly the experience we would want as customers! So expanding DDP service is a big priority for us, and you’ll see even more countries come online soon,” said J.D. Willcox, Qore Performance Co-Founder and CFO.

FedEx DDP Service is now available on Qore Performance.com, populating automatically during checkout for the following countries: Canada, France, Germany, South Korea, The United Kingdom, Switzerland, Czechia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, and Poland.

Qore Performance has developed a close relationship with FedEx since winning their Small Business Grant Competition in 2019.

As the inventors of specialized and consumable thermoregulation for PPE users, Qore Performance bridges the gap between human and machine. Their IceAge Ecosystem protects over 35,000 daily active enterprise safety users. In addition to their military, law enforcement, and prepared citizen customers, dozens of America’s Fortune 1000 companies including Raising Cane’s, Dutch Bros Coffee, Boeing, Charlotte Area Transit System, Black Rock Coffee (Arizona), Valvoline Instant Oil Change, Costco, Great Hearts Academies, and FedEx, depend on Qore Performance to safeguard their teams in the field. Qore Performance enterprise customers have worked over 4,000,000 hours since launch in 2017 without a single heat injury.

Sons of Liberty Gun Works Announces Forward Controls Design AR-15 Ambidextrous Lower Receiver Collaboration

Wednesday, April 20th, 2022

San Antonio, Texas (April 20, 2022) – LRF (Lower Receiver, Forward Controls Design) is a collaboration between Sons of Liberty Gunworks (SOLGW) and Forward Controls Design (FCD).

Machined from a solid block of 7075 aluminum, LRF is an ambidextrous AR15 lower receiver with built-in right side bolt release, designed to use our EMR-A (Enhanced Magazine Release, Ambidextrous), a Norgon Ambi-Catch will also work on the LRF.

Design of LRF was completed in 2019. Due to difficulties of Covid-19 induced lockdowns and subsequent buying frenzies of all things firearms related, production was continuously delayed. Neither SOLGW nor FCD are known to rush development or production, we had used this time to further refine the LRF.

LRF was designed with duty and defense users in mind. Its changes from TDP based lowers are based on ergonomics and better protection of magazine releases (both left and right side):

* EMR-A (Enhanced Magazine Release, Ambidextrous) fence on the left side.

* Taller than TDP spec magazine release fence on the right side to ensure TDP spec magazine release button stays below the fence.

* Countersunk take down pin hole on the left, when the user pushes the take down pin in from the left side, the pin can be pushed in further, with more protrusion on the right to pull from.

* Built in trigger guard with the same features as our TGF (Trigger guard, Forward Controls), more info: www.forwardcontrolsdesign.com/TGF-Trigger-Guard-Forward-Controls_p_178 TGF has more usable space forward of the trigger, not behind. It also has a “ramp” to facilitate magazine loading for users that use the rear spline of the magazine to index and “rock” the magazine into the mag well.

* Flared magazine well with a larger opening.

LRF’s changes are subtle and wholly functions based, a duty/defense firearm doesn’t concern itself with aesthetics, nor benefit from them. One will not find it decorated with lightening cuts/holes, or obnoxiously large logos.

A tastefully small Cygnus is engraved on the right side of the LRF magazine well to denote FCD’s involvement in the project’s development, one can easily miss or overlook it, and that’s the point, we don’t intend the LRF to be a walking billboard. It’s designed and made for work, not for show.

Exclusive offering of the LRF will only be through our SOLGW Premier Dealer Network. Some of these online retailers will even have notifications available to let you know when they go live. Be sure to stay up to date with the latest new products coming out of SOLGW and FCD by visiting our websites, signing up for our email alerts, and following us on social media.

U.S. Army Selects SIG SAUER Next Generation Squad Weapons System

Wednesday, April 20th, 2022

NEWINGTON, N.H., (April 20, 2022) – SIG SAUER is honored to be awarded the Next Generation Squad Weapons System (NGSW) Contract by the U.S. Army after a rigorous 27-month testing and evaluation process.

“The U.S. Army is taking a bold step toward command of the 21st century battlefield and SIG SAUER is immensely proud to be the selected provider for this historic revolution in infantry weapons. The fielding of the SIG SAUER Next Generation Squad Weapons System will forever change the dynamic of military engagement for America’s warfighters with American innovation and manufacturing,” began Ron Cohen, President and CEO SIG SAUER, Inc.

The SIG FURY Hybrid Ammunition (6.8 Common Cartridge), SIG-LMG (XM250), SIG MCX-SPEAR Rifle (XM5) and SIG SLX Suppressors meaningfully advance soldier weapons technology to meet the emerging requirements of the U.S. Army.

The SIG 6.8×51 FURY Hybrid Ammunition uses a patented lightweight metallic case designed to handle pressures higher than conventional ammunition, resulting in dramatically increased velocity and on-target energy in lighter weapons.

The SIG-LMG lightweight belt-fed machine gun and SIG MCX-SPEAR Rifle are purpose-built to harness the energy of the SIG FURY 6.8 Common Cartridge Ammunition enabling greater range and increased lethality while reducing the soldier’s load on the battlefield. Both the SIG-LMG and MCX-SPEAR deliver significant weapon and technology advancements to the soldier and provide a solution for battlefield overmatch in comparison to the current M249 and M4/M4A1.

The U.S. Army’s procurement of the NGSW System marks the beginning of an era where combat weapons are coupled with a suppressor as standard issue equipment. The SIG SLX Suppressors are designed to reduce harmful gas backflow, sound signature and flash. SIG SLX Suppressors feature a patented quick detach design for easy install and removal.

“We commend U.S. Army leadership for having the vision to undertake this historic procurement process to deliver a transformational weapon system to our warfighters. This award is the culmination of a successful collaboration between SIG SAUER and the U.S. Army, and we look forward to the continuing partnership,” concluded Cohen.

SIG SAUER is a company that is driven by innovation and we are proud to offer the advancements of the NGSW System in the SIG 277 FURY Hybrid Ammunition (the commercial variant of the SIG 6.8×51 FURY Ammunition round), SIG MCX-SPEAR Rifle, and the SIG SLX Series of Suppressors available to the consumer.
