New Rifle Sling Offers Exceptional Strength, Low Profile Design

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – September 14, 2022 – Butler Creek, maker of smart, field-proven hunting and shooting accessories, announces that the new Featherlight Minimalist Sling is available at retail just in time for this year’s hunting season. The new rifle sling is designed for backcountry hunters needing a simple, dependable sling that doesn’t interfere with their backpack and gear, all while maintaining maximum strength and durability.

While other, bulky rifle slings can get caught up in your backpack straps, the Minimalist Sling has a low-profile design that forms to your shoulder and provides a non-slip grip. When not in use, the extremely compact sling can be rolled up into the size of a baseball and stuffed in a pocket.

“Just as its name implies, the new Minimalist sling offers hunters a functional, modest design that offers all the features you need without extra weight or bulk”, said Monte Koenigs, product manager for Butler Creek. “The new sling expands our popular line of Featherlight models, which includes several of the lightest and strongest slings in the industry.”

Weighing in at only three ounces (including the steel swivels), the Minimalist Sling’s 0.04″ thick hyper-lite material boasts extreme tensile strength at more than 3,000 pounds per square inch. It can also handle extreme temperatures ranging from -22° F to 248° F, so hunters will never have to wonder if it can stand up to the harshest conditions.

The Featherlight Minimalist Sling is available in four colors: black, black and tan, black and orange, and gray with Prym1® camo.

RISE Patriot Trigger Benefiting Folds of Honor

Wednesday, August 31st, 2022

There are more than 1 million disabled and fallen service members. Nearly 2 million military heroes’ dependents are negatively impacted by war. The cost to provide educational scholarships to those dependents is a whopping $9 billion, and 85% of the families don’t qualify for federal aid.

That’s where Folds of Honor comes in. They provide educational scholarships to the children and spouses of those who were killed or disabled while serving our great nation.

Our troops and their families have unselfishly sacrificed, so we can sleep safely each night and enjoy our sweet liberties each day. As Americans, we have to give back.

That’s why RISE Armament is partnering with Folds of Honor by designing and manufacturing special products that benefit the Folds of Honor foundation.

“To say we’re proud to help out and donate to Folds of Honor is an understatement,” says Matt Torres, president of RISE Armament. “Veterans’ families are often overlooked, which is really a shame. Our troops and their families have tremendous courage and have made so many sacrifices. It’s our duty as Americans, as patriots, to take care of them and honor what they’ve done for us all.”

Here are a few reasons RISE Armament is especially proud to team up with Folds of Honor:

• The scholarships Folds of Honor gives honor the sacrifices of those who have given so much to protect our freedom.
• Folds of Honor operates efficiently and respectfully, allowing the organization to donate 91% of every dollar raised to its scholarships.
• Folds of Honor is based in Oklahoma, but it has awarded scholarships in all 50 states, as well as Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
• Since 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded over 35,000 educational scholarships.

To further benefit Folds of Honor, RISE Armament developed the Patriot High-Performance Trigger and is donating a portion of each Patriot Trigger’s purchase price to the Folds of Honor foundation. It’s an easy-to-install, accuracy-enhancing rifle upgrade that gives back to veterans and their families. Each trigger purchase helps fund educational scholarships for children and spouses of fallen and disabled service members.

The Patriot Trigger has a crisp, clean release and ultra-short reset for faster follow-up shots and improved accuracy. It has a light, 3.5-pound pull and straight trigger blade.

A limited-edition item, the drop-in trigger group includes a Folds of Honor and RISE Armament commemorative challenge coin, along with free tools and anti-walk pins for fast and easy trigger installation.

HUXWRX Safety Co – BLASTPHEMY

Wednesday, August 24th, 2022

The new BLASTPHEMY is a blast deflector constructed from 17-4 stainless steel. It’s also multi-caliber and is compatible with all HUXWRX HX-QD muzzle brakes and flash hiders (up to .338).

The BLASTPHEMY is designed to redirect the blast forward protecting the shooter and bystanders from micro-concussions and overpressure. Additionally, it mitigates flash and doubles as a thread protector for your muzzle device.

HUXWRX recommends it for shooting against cover and/or in the prone position. Similar to HUXWRX muzzle devices, the BLASTPHEMY is coated with QPQ black nitride which case-hardens the surface for greater durability and corrosion resistance.

Blue Force Gear Releases Limited-Edition Vickers Medic Slings

Friday, August 19th, 2022

POOLER, GA – Blue Force Gear has released a limited-edition, metal hardware version of its specialty Vickers Medic Sing.

The Vickers Medic Sling was developed based on the input of Special Forces 18 Delta medics and other combat medics. They wanted a sling with a greater range of adjustment than the Standard Vickers Sling but without the disadvantages commonly attributed to tailed slings. The quick adjusters found at both ends of the sling provide increased adjustment for anyone looking for a sling with greater flexibility, not just medics.

“The Medic Sling has been a long-time fan favorite, so it was time we brought it back,” explained Stephen Hilliard, Senior Director of Product Development for Blue Force Gear. “We wanted to do something a little different this time around, and we eventually landed on a limited-edition sling with all metal hardware. We haven’t released a Medic Sling with this configuration since 2011.”

The Vickers Medic Sling works the same way as the Blue Force Gear Standard Vickers Sling but features a Quick Adjuster Pull Tab at each end. This results in a greater range of adjustment, allowing the user to better secure their weapon when in the Rear Sling position. The Vickers Medic Slings also feature machined aluminum quick adjusters and steel triglides, adding another unique element to this special edition sling. All the hardware is made with premium US materials and has a lifetime guarantee.

The Vickers Medic Sling is not a regularly stocked item. This is a limited-edition release, and once they’re gone, they’re gone. For more information, visit blueforcegear.com/vickers-medic-sling.
