Trijicon® Fiber Sights added to Illuminated Sights Portfolio

Wixom, MI – Trijicon Inc., manufacturer of Brilliant Aiming Solutions™ is excited to introduce the new line of Trijicon® Fiber Sights to its iron sight portfolio.

Featuring similar fiber optic materials used in the battle-proven ACOG®, the new Trijicon Fiber Sights are engineered to provide a brilliant aiming point while retaining strength and maintaining a refined sight picture. The highly visible front sight and subdued rear sight promotes front sight acquisition for quick, accurate shot placement.

The clear, precise sight picture in the Trijicon Fiber Sights is optimized with a thin, bright front post (.110” wide with .060” diameter fiber). This is intended to minimize obstruction of the target while still delivering attention grabbing brightness to promote front sight focus. The front sight combines with a blacked-out rear sight that features a square rear notch (.125” wide) to allow for a refined sight picture in a variety of shooting environments. The rear sight features rounded edges to reduce snag points and improve ease of carrying. Additionally, the front surface of the rear sight is steeply hooked and strong enough to assist in emergency one-handed slide manipulations. Read more

TenPoint Releases Titan M1 Crossbow

Mogadore, OH. Crossbow leader TenPoint Crossbow Technologies unveiled its new Titan M1 model at the 2019 ATA Trade Show. A radical makeover of the all-time best-selling Titan model, the Titan M1 is an incredible 9.5” narrower, 30 feet-per-second faster, and $100 cheaper than its predecessor. Starting at $699.99, it offers an incredible performance-to-value ratio never seen before in the crossbow industry.

“The Titan M1 is primed to take market share in 2019 due to its combination of extreme narrow width and price point.” Bednar said. “The Titan has been our best-selling model for over ten years. This version is the best in all ways imaginable. It’s radically narrower, faster, lighter weight, and lower priced – changes we believe will extend the model’s incredible run for years to come.”

The NEW M1 bow assembly measures a radically compact 9-inches axle-to-axle when cocked. NEW VX-5™ reverse cams elongate the power-stroke and increase rotation to produce devastating speed of up to 370 feet-per-second and pin-point down-range accuracy.

Federal Appeals Court Dismisses Mass. AG’s Appeal

Firearms Retailers, NSSF Federal Suit Against ‘Enforcement Notice’ Goes Forward

NEWTOWN, Conn. — A three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit on Wednesday, just hours after hearing oral argument, dismissed an appeal filed by Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey in a federal lawsuit brought by four federally-licensed Massachusetts firearms retailers and the National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the trade association for the firearms and ammunition industry. The lawsuit challenging Healey’s 2016 “Enforcement Notice” will go forward unimpeded. In 2018, a federal district court judge in Worcester had denied Healey’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit finding that the plaintiffs had asserted valid federal due process claims.

“We are very pleased that the judges saw the total lack of merit in the appeal and, in a rare move, dismissed it the very same day they heard oral arguments, Attorney General Healey’s frivolous attempt to prevent part of this suit from moving ahead based on state law claims that were not even being made,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel.

The lawsuit states that Healey overstepped her legal authority and deprived the retailers of their due process protections guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution. The action seeks declaratory relief and a permanent injunction enjoining enforcement. Read more

Firearms Industry Opposes Assault Weapons Ban

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the trade association for the firearms and ammunition, today announced that it opposes the Assault Weapons Ban of 2019 introduced in the U.S. Senate this week.

The legislation introduced by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), like earlier versions, relies on wrongfully defining commonly-owned semi-automatic rifles based on certain cosmetic features. The new version of this legislation, however, expands ways to ban the most-popular center-fire rifle in America. Since the original Assault Weapons Ban expired in 2004, more than 16 million of these rifles have been legally purchased for lawful purposes.

“It is disappointing to see politicians continue to pursue a failed policy agenda that has proven ineffective in improving public safety and will deny law-abiding citizens their Constitutional right,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President of Government and Public Affairs and General Counsel. “Despite what proponents may say, the record shows that Sen. Feinstein’s original 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban had no demonstrable impact on reducing crime and this one would be equally ineffective.” Read more

SWAROVSKI OPTIC Integrates Digital Intelligence into New dS Riflescope

Cranston, Rhode Island – SWAROVSKI OPTIK NORTH AMERICA, a subsidiary of the Austrian based company, announces the dS, representing a completely new generation of rifle scope. This product will highlight the optical features of a conventional rifle scope and combine the technology of digital targeting to form an impressive, complete device. Delivery starts in the US market in January 2019.

The new dS shows not only the correct aiming point, but also the key ballistic data in the head-up display without any distraction and in real time. The key benefit for hunters is that the correct aiming point will be displayed automatically in the rifle scope. With the press of a button, the dS measures the exact distance to the target, having factored in the magnification setting, air pressure, temperature, and angle. This takes into account the personal ballistic data for your firearm/ammunition combination.

The windage mark intervals are calculated based on the distance measured, the wind speeds set, and the ballistic data.

The display shows the distance information, bullet energy, and other features in a high-resolution head-up display that clearly provides you with all the hunting data that can contribute to a successful hunt. The design of the dS with its attractive silhouette will look great on any rifle.

The scope requires networking with a smartphone. Exchanging data is simple and straightforward via the Bluetooth® interface. The personal data supplied when sighting in the target are input directly into the app and transmitted immediately. Read more

Halo Introduces the XBS-1 Laser Rangefinding Crossbow Sight

GW: Been waiting for a range finding crossbow sight and this one is more reasonable than others offered so far.  However, as of July 20, 2019, I’ve learned that this optic has been discontinued, so forget it.


Grand Prairie, TX– When it comes to shooting arrows from a crossbow, precise ranging to the target is vital-especially when shooting at live targets such as a deer or elk. Missing the vitals by an inch because an improperly judged distance can mean the difference in being the camp hero and being the camp zero. But even accurate ranging can be tricky – lifting the rangefinder to your eye, taking a reading, then dropping the rangefinder and raising the crossbow to aim through the scope. A lot can happen during this transition, particularly on game that is constantly stopping and going. Halo Optics has built the solution for this dilemma with their new for 2019 XBS-1™ Laser Rangefinding Crossbow Sight.

This high-tech device combines best-in-class ranging capability into an ultra-clear sight so the hunter can bring his eye to aim, range the target and shoot, all in one simple motion. The unit brings all the cutting-edge features Halo rangefinders are known for, including Auto Acquisition, Angle Intelligence™, and Scan Mode. The Auto Acquisition feature provides instant readings to the target with the single touch of a button. Angle Intelligence™ is perfect for hunters working from tree stands, particularly when shooting sharp angles, as it calculates slope to target to determine the proper holdover for the angle-compensated distance. Lastly, Scan Mode allows the hunter to lock in multiple targets at different yardages providing four distance readings per second to each.

The XBS-1 mounts easily to any Weaver-style rail and includes a remote button for instant activation of the rangefinder. The maximum range for the rangefinder is 150 yards. Read more
