FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Tucson, AZ (10 July 2020)- As the World’s only Military and Law Enforcement Veteran Owned optics company, Riton is focused on giving back to the Military Veteran community. Beyond their industry leading Veteran discount, the company also finds it important to connect with Military Veterans through experiences such as hunting and shooting.
Brady Speth, Riton’s Veteran Founder and CEO stated, “Serving in the Military provides a deep sense of camaraderie. I have found one of the best alternatives is hunting with a good group of people- sharing stories, laughing around camp, and working hard to have a successful hunt.”
The Riton Optics 2020 Veteran’s Hunt will provide one deserving Veteran with a once-in-a-lifetime Barbary Sheep hunt, along with additional hunt opportunities and a prize package. From September 28th through October 2nd of 2020, the nominated Veteran will be joined by Riton Optics Veteran Founder and CEO, Brady Speth, Military Arms Channel Veteran Founder and Host, Tim Harmsen, and Hero Hunt’s Veteran Founder, Joe Towers for this amazing experience at the Flying W Ranch in Sierra Blanca, Texas.
In addition to an all expenses paid Barbary Sheep hunt, the nominated Veteran will also have an opportunity to experience a Coyote Helicopter hunt and win a prize packaging including Riton Optics, a Cerakoted 6.5 PRC Mossberg Patriot/Predator, Hanwag hunting boots, a First Lite camo set and more.
Beyond the experience of the camaraderie through this hunting journey, the nominated Veteran will also be a part of a documented piece for Riton Optics, Military Arms Channel and Hero Hunt.
According to Calley Carpenter, Riton’s Director of Marketing, “We are excited to be able to work with some great Veteran partners and provide this opportunity to a deserving Veteran who can become a part of the Riton family through this experience. This is absolutely the best part about what we do.”

IDAHO FALLS, IDAHO – July 14, 2020 – Amend2 Magazines is proud to announce new 6.5 Grendel magazines. These are the first ever polymer magazines dedicated to the 6.5 Grendel. The new magazines provide a lightweight and durable option for the growing number of shooters who prefer the capabilities of 6.5 Grendel and are ideal for 6mm ARC cartridges, too.
“Amend2’s 6.5 Grendel magazine provides impeccable reliability,” said Matt Bellitti, Amend2 General Manager. “These mags have been designed from the inside out to prevent nose-diving, and to ensure stability and control for the wide 6.5 Grendel cases.”
The Amend2 10 round 6.5 Grendel magazine is a sturdy, reliable AR15/M4/M16 magazine made of an advanced glass-filled polymer. It is a light, durable and excellent alternative to the standard M4/M16 USGI aluminum/steel magazines. The patented design combines internal stabilizing ribs and a new 6.5 Grendel follower. The result is lighter, easier to load, and provides greater reliability than any other Grendel magazine on the market.
Inside the magazine, rounds stack in a staggered pattern that narrows into a single stack at the top for optimal feeding. Because these magazines index rounds with the case wall instead of the case neck, they will also work flawlessly with 6mm ARC.
The first of these new 6.5 Grendel magazines will hold 10 rounds, making it ideal for benchrest and long-distance shooting. The magazines come in a variety of colors, including Black, Flat Dark Earth, OD Green and Gray and are available now.
FEATURES:
• Sturdy Impact resistant polymer with textured grip
• Anti-tilt super follower
• Heavy duty, non-memory, and non-corrosive stainless steel spring
• Made in the U.S.A.
• Material able to cerakote
• Proprietary Grendel internal design
MILLCREEK UT July 15, 2020 — OSS Suppressors LLC has introduced a new variation on their popular 5.56 caliber suppressors – the HX-QD 556Ti.
Built with OSS’s patented and proven Flow-Through® and Torque-Lock® technologies, and a combination of Grade 5/Grade 9 Titanium and 17-4 stainless steel, it is designed with a new flash cap that eliminates virtually all flash. It joins the updated HX-QD 556 and 556k models (with the new flash cap) to offer superior suppression and an unmatched shooting experience for 556 rifle owners. And unlike other 556 titanium suppressors, the HX-QD 556Ti has a stainless-steel core that delivers durability in excess of 40,000 rounds vs. all titanium suppressors that last a fraction of that.
“Only OSS’s unique Flow-Through design directs expanding gas away from the bore line, routing it forward, through coils and deflectors, and then out the muzzle” said Jake VanAllen, Director of Commercial and LE Sales. “Sound levels are effectively suppressed at the shooter’s ear, toxic gas blowback, rifle recoil and flash are mitigated, and weapon performance is improved. It’s a difference you can feel” he added.
“We’re excited to add OSS’s new 556Ti to our line at Silencer Shop,” said Elliot Aquila, Chief Marketing Officer. “Their Flow-Through suppressors have become increasingly popular for us. The HX-QD 556Ti – with its combination of light weight, full-auto rating, superior accuracy and repeatability, will prove to be a strong addition to our 556 offerings.”
The HX-QD 556Ti is available for purchase now. Find an OSS Dealer near you.
US Customs and Border Protection, part of the US Department of Homeland Security is purchasing 285 Brugger & Thomet APC9s by leveraging the US Army Sub Compact Weapon contract.

The B&T APC9K was adopted by the US Army just last year as their Sub Compact Weapon as seen above.
The CBP APC9s will be fitted with Aimpoint optics and Glock compatible magwells. We understand the agency plans to replace their fleet of around 2000 H&K UMPs over time.

FORT KNOX, Ky. — A line formed inside the Fort Knox Military Clothing Sales store July 8 as several recruiting students anticipated being the first to be issued the Army’s newest uniform — the Army Green Service Uniform.
Considered a nostalgic nod to the greatest generation — who fought in World War II — the green and beige uniform has caused strong reactions in civilians and Soldiers alike.
“This is kind of cool, especially for these students, because they’re going to be the face of the Army when they go out there,” said Sgt. 1st Class Wesley Wills, career recruiter and Army Recruiter Course instructor. “To put them in the new uniform makes sense to me because they’re going to be engaging the public. It’s going to be good for the Army.”
In Week 4 of the six-week recruiter course, the 70 Soldiers attending were divided into two groups so Army & Air Force Exchange Service personnel could effectively issue all pieces of the uniform set. The set issued to the recruiters includes a service coat, two pairs of pants, a long-sleeve and short-sleeve shirt each, a pair of shoes, socks, tie, belt, gloves and the distinctive cap.
“This uniform goes back to our historical identity,” said Wills. “When I was out recruiting and wore the Army Service Uniform, a lot of times I was asked if I was in the Air Force. Whereas, I believe these are a little truer to who we are.”
Already a recruiter in Fort Smith, Arkansas, Sgt. Rochelle Walsingham said she was excited to be part of the class that gets the uniform. She noted some differences from other uniforms.
“It’s a little heavier than the other ones. The jacket’s a lot heavier and more durable than other jackets are,” she said. “But the AGSUs are more form-fitting for the females. That was a big problem for the ASU for the females. These actually fit more to your form, and we were told you are able to take them out more or bring them in more, so it helps a lot.”
She said when her unit found out she would be one of the first to get issued the new uniforms, they wanted her to take some pictures.
“They’re very jealous,” said Walsingham. “They said, ‘What?!? You already get yours?’ I said, ‘Yeah, and I don’t have to pay for it.’”
Uniforms will go on sale to other Soldiers who want to buy them beginning July 10. Drill sergeants are expected to be the next group to receive the uniforms, and new recruits are expected to be issued the uniforms in the fall. AAFES officials say other installations will begin receiving them shortly afterward.
Emmanuel Belt, the Fort Knox Military Clothing Sales store manager, said they found out in April that Fort Knox would become the first to receive the uniforms. Excitement at the installation has been building since.
“I’m really surprised at how much enthusiasm there is with this uniform,” said Belt. “I thought people wouldn’t want to spend any more money on uniforms, but they all really want this uniform. And it looks great, too.”
