Leave a comment

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – SK Guns®, the Nation’s only series-driven, limited-edition manufacturer of custom firearms, is proud to announce the release of “SOLO LOBO.” This fourth installment is the latest production in the series featuring the world’s deadliest predators.

SOLO LOBO translates to Lone Wolf, a symbol of strength and independence. A Lone Wolf is a wolf that has left its pack to roam independently. The Lone Wolf embodies resilience and solitude, often choosing to separate in search of a new territory, mate or better hunting opportunities.

“The Lone Wolf has become a powerful symbol in human culture,” said Simon Khiabani, owner and founder of SK Guns. “It is often associated with independence, mystery and self-reliance; it represents those who carve their own paths, unbound by societal norms.” Read more

Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation Settles Lawsuit Against Colorado Wildlife Commissioners

Leave a comment

Sportsmen’s Alliance Foundation and its partner Safari Club International have settled a lawsuit against two Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) commissioners and the commission itself for violating the state’s open-meetings law.

Colorado’s open-meeting law requires that all meetings between two or more public officials where public business is discussed must be open to the public after notice of such a meeting is provided. The law’s purpose is to promote open and informed discussions, which leads to better decision making.

This was not the case when two current Colorado Parks and Wildlife Commissioners, Jack Murphy and Jessica Beaulieu, and former commissioner James Pribyl, coauthored an Op-Ed titled “Current and Former CPW commissioners endorse Prop 127.” The Op-Ed was highly critical of mountain lion and bobcat hunting, declaring that it “in no way contributes to our bright future … in our great state of Colorado.”

The Op-Ed also contained several blatant errors about state hunting regulations. The commissioners claimed that hunters could use drones, which is prohibited by the commission’s own regulations. They claimed that mountain lion hunts guarantee “success at 100%,” when the success rate is closer to 20 percent. And it falsely claimed that wild cats are “not involved in any human conflict,” when Colorado Parks and Wildlife website has numerous press releases to the contrary. The irony is that all these false statements were made while simultaneously declaring that commissioners “are held to a higher standard … of science, not mere opinion and conjecture.”

CPW made the correct decision to settle instead of dragging this out and wasting time and resources. Read more

Joint Statement of Conservation Commissioner Chris Blankenship and Representative Matt Simpson Concerning Jubilees

Leave a comment

A jubilee is a naturally occurring phenomenon that happens in only two locations in the world, Mobile Bay and Tokyo Bay, during which large numbers of fish and crustaceans are forced into shallow water due to low dissolved oxygen in the water. Jubilees are not “fish kills” and the fish, shrimp, and other marine life generally return to normal behavior when the conditions change. However, the events bring sea life right to the shore where they can be seen and harvested.

These events are special times in the lives of coastal residents and visitors. It is impossible to predict the exact location, time, and duration of a jubilee which makes planning uncertain for participation in this uniquely Alabama event. Individuals must abide by creel limits, size regulations, and other laws and regulations that protect Alabama’s valuable marine resources from overharvest during these events.

The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources has worked with Representative Matt Simpson, who represents parts of the Eastern Shore of Mobile Bay where most jubilees occur, to provide information to residents and visitors alike to ensure they can participate in these events within the law and enjoy the bounty of Mobile Bay.

DNR staff holding fish at the Little Manistee River weir during spring steelhead egg take.The annual collection of steelhead eggs at the Little Manistee River weir in Stronach (Manistee County), Michigan, is tentatively scheduled to begin Tuesday, April 15. The facility is open to the public for up-close viewing during egg-take operations.

Steelhead provide one of Michigan’s premier sport fishing opportunities for both open-water fishing on the Great Lakes and tributary stream fishing. Yearling steelhead produced through hatchery operations are stocked in select tributaries of all the Great Lakes.

Since 1968, the Little Manistee River weir has served as the sole source of winter-run steelhead eggs for fish hatcheries in Michigan and the main source for Ohio and Indiana. This year, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources plans to collect 4.5 million eggs. Thompson State Fish Hatchery and Wolf Lake State Fish Hatchery will receive 3.7 million of those eggs, and Ohio and Indiana will each receive 400,000 eggs. Read more

DNR ice storm cleanup updates: State parks, trails, campgrounds and boating access sites

Leave a comment

April 10, 2025

Following severe ice storms in northern Michigan, Department of Natural Resources staff members are assessing damage and conducting cleanup at several state parks, state park campgrounds, state forest campgrounds, boating access sites and state-managed trails.

DNR crews are also collaborating with local agencies and utility companies to clear debris, prioritize the restoration of essential services and ensure access to critical infrastructure. Much of the work is being coordinated with the Michigan Army National Guard.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer declared a 12-county disaster area last week, which includes Alcona, Alpena, Antrim, Charlevoix, Cheboygan, Crawford, Emmet, Mackinac, Montmorency, Oscoda, Otsego and Presque Isle counties.

As a result, the DNR temporarily closed several state parks, state park campgrounds, state forest campgrounds, boating access sites and state-managed trails until safe access can be restored, including hazardous tree assessment and removal. Read more

Leave a comment

50 mm optical performance in a 42 mm frame

ZEISS presents the all-new SFL 50, an extension of the renowned SFL family of binoculars. It combines the outstanding optical performance of a 50 mm binocular in the size and weight category of competitors’ 42 mm frame sizes. The SFL 50 offers superb performance at twilight and dusk and is a pleasure to carry. Available in three magnifications: 8×50, 10×50 and the most anticipated 12×50 model, the SFL 50 binoculars represent a most impressive breakthrough in binocular technology and design. “With the SFL 50, we have been able to combine the optical performance of 50 mm binoculars in a design that is as compact and lightweight as a classic 42 mm model,” says Nur Ölmez, Category Manager at ZEISS.

Bright and Light

Thanks to highly innovative optical designs, with thinner lens elements and optimized spacing between lenses, the all-new ZEISS SFL 50 saves on length and weight while delivering exceptional optical performance. The magnesium housing not only contributes to weight reduction but also ensures ruggedness, durability and better stability between extreme temperature shifts.

The ZEISS UHD Concept creates a light transmission value of 90% and the 50 mm objective allows for an appreciably larger exit pupil – providing for an exceptional amount of light to reach the eyes. Particularly at twilight, when the eye’s pupil becomes wider, the large exit pupil of the SFL 50 ensures a bright, clear image – providing a particularly enjoyable and comfortable viewing experience. The large exit pupil, combined with the generous eye relief, affords quick access to a full image so that even moving subjects can be witnessed effortlessly. Read more
