SIG Range Day 20 – Blackpoint
January 19th, 2020SIG Range Day 20 – Smart Shooter
January 19th, 2020
Israeli company Smart Shooter demonstrates their SMASH system mounted to a SIG M400 carbine. SMASH is a small arms fire control system that combines a thermal imager and algorithms to acquire a target, lock on to it and then effectively engage it. Once the target is selected and locked, you keep it in your sight picture and depress the trigger. The weapon will knot engage when a proper firing solution is found. Using it, I was able to easily engage moving targets out to 200 meters.
Seen here is the trainer version on a generic stick which is used to show new shooters how to use the system. Thanks to the thermal camera, it can be used in day or night. Additionally, the sight picture can be shared with others via C4 systems.
The system can be used to designate and Additionally, SMASH has been used to engage drones with M4 carbines.
SIG CEO Ron Cohen told me that they are going to work with Smart Shooter in the future and introduce some of their technology into the system such as BDX.
This system makes the average shooter more accurate and can be used for individual precision shots out to 300m. Naturally, you don’t have to use it if you need to engage multiple targets at once.

David Reeder Takes The Helm At “The Mag Life”
January 19th, 2020January 19th, 2020 (Miami, FL)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Mag Life, the official online publication of GunMag Warehouse, is proud to announce that longtime industry insider David Reeder will be taking the helm as Chief Editor on Monday, January 20th ? the same day as Industry Day at the Range kicks off SHOT Show 2020. The timing couldn’t be better.
Daniel Shaw, Director of Marketing for GunMag Warehouse (and HMFIC of both The Gunfighter Cast and Shaw Strategies), says,
“David has been a friend for many years. The quality of his work speaks for itself, and you’d be hard-pressed to find someone in the industry who would not speak highly of his character. As a part-timer over the last few months he has significantly increased our readership. Having him on the team in a full-time capacity is going to help us tremendously to achieve some truly ambitious goals we’ve set for the year, not to mention for the overall future of The Mag Life.”
Reeder is the co-founder of Breach-Bang-Clear and a former Digital Editor at both RECOIL Magazine and Military.com. He is a prolific writer who has contributed to a wide variety of publications, including the Military Times, Guns & Ammo, US News & World Report, SWAT Magazine, Police Link, OFFGRID Magazine, SWAT Magazine, SWAT Digest, Officer.com, the SOLSY Group, and others. A retired USAF/ANG Security Forces SNCO and former (small town) LEO, Reeder spent several years teaching both MOUT and combat tracking, and in his law enforcement role served in a number of capacities including Patrol, Training, SWAT, PIO, a multi-agency drug task force, and OC for the National Homeland Security Training Center ? all of which, he will be the first to tell you, sounds far cooler than it really was.
Michael Lambka, President of GMWH, advises,
“David stands out among his peers for many reasons, but what I like most about him is his voice. He brings a certain tone that is rare in our industry. His finished product often contains an element of humor that is coupled with his knowledge and love for what we do. That love and excitement translates well to the readers of The Mag Life.”
Reeder (@reederwrites) takes over ramrodding The Mag Life as we add a number of other contributors, including Chris Tran, Jeremy Stafford, Mike Searson, Varg Freeborn, Frank Woods, Joe Dawson, Peter Suciu, Michael Kupari, Daniel Bales, and others.
See what Reeder’s up to on The Mag Life. There we endeavor to bring quality information ?
