Report Reaffirms Outdoor Recreation as Significant Economic Driver

Newly released economic data on the national and, for the first time ever, state levels reinforce what the outdoor recreation industry has long believed: Outdoor recreation is a powerful driver of national and local economies and it is growing faster than the U.S. economy as a whole.This is the second consecutive year that the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce, has released formal, national-level data, a notable milestone for the industry now identified as a unique sector of the economy. For the first time, BEA also released preliminary data on the outdoor recreation economy at the state level for all fifty states and the District of Columbia. Having a rich set of both state and national data on outdoor recreation to draw upon will inform decision-making by businesses, policymakers, and managers of public lands and waters. Read more

Don’t Come and Take Them, We’re Giving These Molon Labe Rifles Away

MOLINE, IL — “Hell yes, we’re coming to take your AR-15, your AK-47,” said 2020 Democratic presidential contender Beto O’ Rourke, as he detailed his plan for a “mandatory buyback” of firearms that he and other gun-grabbers find icky. That’s why Guns & Gadgets Daily is proud to introduce our latest giveaway, which we’ve created in Beto’s honor: the Molon Labe Giveaway. Between now and midnight on October 31, 2019, we’re giving away a custom-painted, one-of-a-kind AR-15, and an AK-47 to match, to one lucky winner.If you’re a student of history—or just someone who enjoys Frank Miller movies—you know that the taunt “Molon Labe,” was how Sparta’s King Leonidas responded to Xerxes’ demand that he and his 300 Spartans hand over their weapons. The translation from the Greek is, roughly, “Come and Get Them,” and we here at Brand Avalanche are reminding American gun owners everywhere that the spirit of Leonidas lives on in all of us…protected by the Second Amendment.

Colona, IL – Rock River Arms, manufacture of a diverse line of reliable and accurate Modern Sporting Rifles and pistols for personal defense, hunting, and competition is now shipping the new LAR-22 series rifles.

Tactical Carbine – For those who favor an MSR with a free-float barrel and handguard configuration, the LAR-22 Tactical Carbine is an optimal choice for tactical training or target plinking. Select between a forged aluminum upper and lower receiver set or RRA’s own polymer lower receiver set for a lower-cost option. Both rifles feature the RRA NSP-2 CAR, six-position stock, A2 pistol grip, two-stage trigger, and 15-inch 3G free float rail handguard that is M-LOK® compatible shrouding a 16-inch chrome moly barrel.

Mid A4 – Designed for those who prefer a more traditional A4-style firearm, the Mid A4 LAR-22 is also offered with either forged aluminum upper and lower receivers or the RRA polymer upper and lower receivers. Standard A2 grips, mid-length handguard with heat shields, six-position tactical CAR stock, single-stage trigger, and a 16-inch chrome moly barrel round out the key features.

NM A4 CMP Trainer – Built to be a stand-in practice rifle for CMP National Match competition, this rifle combines a precision 20-inch stainless steel heavy barrel with RRA’s NM CMP TRO free-float rifle-length handguard (with three TRO modular rails and a National Match sling swivel). Another precision upgrade is the RRA Two-Stage Match chrome trigger group.

The Wraith 1911 From Dan Wesson

CZ-USA and Dan Wesson add to the company’s suppressor-ready pistols with the DW Wraith, featuring a 5.75-inch, factory-threaded barrel. The Wraith features High Night Sights to accommodate a suppressor, as a suppressor usually blocks out some or all of the standard 1911 sights.

A full-sized 1911, the DW Wraith is available in 45 ACP, 10MM, and 9MM Luger. The frame and slide on the DW Wraith are made of heavy-duty, forged stainless steel, and are coated in Dan Wesson’s distressed version of the gun maker’s Duty finish. Non-distressed parts are finished in black.

The DW Wraith’s G10 grips feature an edgy and very functional stippling. The extended grip and thumb safeties make the DW Wraith easy to use even with gloved hands. For added support, sharp, 25 lines-per-inch checkering is found on the front strap and mainspring housing. The Wraith’s undercut trigger guard provides a higher grip for better handling and stability.

The Wraith’s ejection post is lowered and flared for better ejection of spent brass. Forward slide serrations provide a nice texture for racking back the slide. The beveled magwell means easier and faster magazine changes.

All DW Wraith’s come with a thread protector, and ships with two (2) magazines, a Signature Series pistol case, a barrel bushing wrench, one (1) cable lock, and an owner’s manual.
