Reptilia Announces New Riser for Piggy-Back Red Dot Optic Mounts

Thursday, April 5th, 2018

March 22, 2018 – Reptilia, an American design and manufacturing company creating innovative, premium grade products, has announced the release of the ROF Riser, an add-on plate for their popular ROF90 and ROF45 mounts.

The ROF Riser is a piggy-back red dot optic riser, used to move the mounted reflex sight 2.5mm further from the host scope’s centerline, providing extra clearance for tall turrets or larger-belled scope bodies.

Precision machined from billet 7075 aluminum and protected with Mil-spec type III hard coat finish, the ROF Riser weighs just 8.6g with a height of 2.5mm.

Initially available for the Triijicon RMR, the ROF Riser comes with longer 6-32 screws for mounting.

“Our products are designed to fill voids that will help make current products work more efficiently and effectively,” stated Eric Burt, Reptilia’s President and Head of Design. “We received a request for piggy-back reflex optic mounting solutions which drove us to create our ROF line. When mounting ROF90 and ROF45, some magnified optics have taller turrets or bells so they need more distance from centerline for the red dot to maintain sight picture. We took those requirements and developed something that is functional and efficient.”

Burt, one of the industry’s most respected and sought after Industrial Designers, founded Reptilia with the intent to address issues that were frequently overlooked in the firearms industry. Ranging from simple design tweaks to grander-scale innovations, Reptilia is the vehicle to bring ideas to fruition. Promising an insatiable need to innovate and bridge the gaps that challenge end users. Reptilia stand by their mantra of, “Superiority Through Evolution.” In a world that is always evolving, Reptilia strive to produce products and provide services that are unmatched in this industry.

The ROF Riser will be available April 2018, through the Reptilia web store at www.reptiliacorp.com/store.

Applied Ballistics Wins Military Contract to Advance Extreme Long-Range Sniper Capability

Applied Ballistics Wins Military R&D Contract
Precision Shooting Tech Company Funded to Advance Extreme Long-Range Sniper Capability

Cedar Springs, MI: Applied Ballistics LLC, a Michigan-based tech company focused on advancing the state of the art in long range rifle shooting, has been awarded a $1.3M contract by the Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO) to execute Phase 1 of the Extreme Sniper Strike Operations (ESSO) project.

Phase 1 of the ESSO project is focused on advancing the predictive capabilities of modern ballistic solvers by performing Doppler radar measurement and modeling of current service rounds at Extreme Long Range (ELR) as a function of gyroscopic stability, and refining the models of secondary ballistic effects such as spin rate decay and spin drift at ELR. Phase 1 will conclude with the ballistic modeling enhancements being integrated into the existing Applied Ballistics ecosystem of electronic devices which are currently deployed by numerous US and allied armed forces around the world. Phase 1 is scheduled for completion in late 2018.

Phase 2 of the ESSO project is a potential follow on (2019) that focuses on the development and fielding of an advanced ELR sniper rifle system designed to drastically increase first round hit probability at ELR on man sized targets. The Applied Ballistics Weapons Division is currently conducting research and development on weapons platforms, as well as new cartridge and bullet options, that will maximize ELR ballistic performance from lightweight, practical, magazine fed systems.

Bryan Litz, owner of Applied Ballistics LLC, said: “Our team of Aerospace, Mechanical, Electrical and Computer Science Engineers and Technicians will apply our combined experience including years of testing and competing in ELR Shooting to the successful completion of the ESSO program objectives. This means extending the maximum effective range of US and allied snipers, achieving decisive overmatch on the battlefield. I can’t imagine a better application of Applied Ballistics’ collective efforts.”

Wednesday, March 28th, 2018

Shadow Tech is well known in Sniper circles for their HOG Saddle. They had quite a few wares for the Precision marksman but one thing which stuck out was the Tripod Camo Sleeves by Rauch Precision.

Available in MultiCam and Kryptek Highlander, these sleeves are made from 1000D Cordura with a no-slip backer. They are laced into place with shockcord which can be used to hold foliage or other items like a Kestrel. They also deaden the noise when Tripod legs are banged.

They are a made specifically for the PIG 0311-G Tripod, also from the makers of the HOG Saddle. However, they’ll make custom length versions if you inquire.
