SilencerCo Invites Hunters To Visit Their Booth at Buckmasters Expo

Wednesday, August 18th, 2021

August 13, 2021 — West Valley City, UT — SilencerCo will be attending the Buckmasters Expo on August 20, 2021 – August 22, 2021 in Montgomery, Alabama. The show is geared specifically toward deer hunters, and SilencerCo plans to feature their hunting-specific silencers at booth numbers 289 and 290.

Silencers are an important tool for hunters to maintain stealth, reduce recoil and muzzle signature and protect themselves from hearing damage. SilencerCo offers a wide range of suppressors that meet the specific needs of hunters, with the most popular being the Harvester 300, the Omega 300 and the Omega 36M. These products will be featured at their Buckmasters Expo booth.

The Harvester 300, like its name describes, is a purpose-built suppressor designed with the hunter in mind. It is rated up to .300 WIN, but will accommodate all of the most commonly used hunting calibers between .223 REM and .300 WIN. It’s 17-4 heat-treated, stainless baffles and aluminum tubing make it lightweight, yet strong enough for all hunting needs.

For hunters looking for a heavy-duty use suppressor, the Omega 300 and Omega 36M are slightly heavier than the Harvester, but do offer more versatility. Both the Omega 300 and Omega 36M are world-class suppressors commonly used for both recreational and tactical shooting. The Omega 36M is the most adaptable suppressor currently available, allowing for short and long lengths and accommodating calibers ranging from .22 Hornet up to .338 LM.

“Come by booth 289 and see us! We look forward to discussing the benefits of hunting suppressed with you,” said hunting enthusiast and SilencerCo Marketing Manager, Brooklee Grant.

Gryphon Investors’ Mechanix Wear Acquires Chicago Protective Apparel

Tuesday, August 17th, 2021

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 17, 2021 // — Mechanix Wear®, a leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance work gloves, announced today it has acquired Chicago Protective Apparel (“CPA” or the “Company”), a 108 year-old, family-owned manufacturer of personal protective equipment (PPE). Mechanix Wear is a portfolio company of middle-market private equity firm Gryphon Investors. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Founded in 1913 and headquartered in Skokie, IL, CPA manufactures and offers an extensive line of over 20,000 products for arc flash, foundry, and welding applications. The Company’s previous owners, Scott and Myrna Sherman, are retiring after 30 years of service. Vice President John Merikoski will remain with the Company as Director of Production, along with other members of the management team.

Mechanix Wear CEO Michael Hale said, “Our two-year partnership with Gryphon has accelerated our growth and positioned us to expand beyond our core line of work gloves. CPA’s culture of quality and focus on innovation synchronize with Mechanix Wear’s mission of bringing the latest design and material innovation to gloves for working hands. Moving forward, we will integrate and expand on CPA’s product portfolio by looking beyond conventional ideas to innovate the most advanced PPE possible. We are excited to collaborate with John and his team.”

Ryan Fagan, Managing Director in the Consumer Group at Gryphon, said, “We’ve been happy to partner with Michael and his team, and see the impressive growth they have continued to achieve as Mechanix Wear celebrates its 30th year of Hand Built Trust. We are excited to welcome CPA into our partnership.”

Mr. Merikoski commented, “We thank Scott and Myrna for building a trusted company that has attracted a loyal following and enjoyed enormous success. We are now in a great position to grow, and we are delighted to team up with such an iconic brand as Mechanix Wear. With their support, and with Gryphon’s capital and operational resources behind us, we expect to invest in continued innovation and customer satisfaction both domestically and abroad.”

EC M&A served as financial advisor to Gryphon and Mechanix Wear. Kirkland & Ellis acted as legal advisor to Gryphon and Mechanix Wear, and Williams, Bax & Saltzman acted as legal advisor to CPA.

Raven Concealment Systems Releases Lictor G9 Magazine Carrier

Tuesday, August 17th, 2021

Raven Concealment Systems announced today the commercial market release of the Lictor G9 magazine carrier – a product which was been issued to .mil/.gov clients for the last three years.

The origin of the name of this magazine carrier is from Roman history, and is a subtle nod to the client for which this product was initially developed:

“A lictor (possibly from Latin: ligare, “to bind”) was a Roman civil servant who was an attendant and bodyguard to a magistrate who held imperium. Lictors are documented since the Roman Kingdom, and may have originated with the Etruscans.” (source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lictor)

The Lictor G9 is the smallest-footprint double magazine carrier RCS has ever produced. It is also the first pistol magazine carrier they have produced that doesn’t need to be threaded on and off a belt.

These new magazine carriers are ambi, and have relief cuts on the outboard face in order to facilitate rapid magazine access whether worn on the waistline or high up on a vest or plate carrier.

The Lictor G9 magazine carriers were designed to accept mil-spec magazines from all of the “Big 3” modern service pistols (Glock 17/19/45, Sig M17/M18, and Beretta M9), and they also happen to fit a variety of other popular commercial-market 9mm/.40 caliber pistols with similar magazine dimensions (such as the CZ P07, CZ-75, Beretta APX, Beretta PX4, Walther PPQ, and Springfield XD and XDM).

The design securely holds two fully loaded magazines, and offers adjustable retention that can be dialed down for daily CCW or dialed up for overt use on armor carriers — without the need for flaps or bungies.

The belt clip on the Lictor G9 is also a brand-new RCS product, and allows the shooter to quickly don and doff the magazine carrier one-handed. The belt clip can be removed from the carrier, exposing mounting holes which are compatible with a variety of after-market belt attachments and MOLLE/PALS mounting adaptors. This provides end-users with an easy way adapt the carrier to a variety of applications on their body, inside a bag, a vehicle, etc.

This magazine carrier is equally suited for low-vis/CCW roles (like under a sport coat or untucked shirt) and overt roles, like being mounted on a war belt or plate carrier.

The Lictor G9 Magazine Carrier has a retail price of $39.99 and is available here:

rcsgear.com/lictor-g9-pistol-magazine-carrier
