#Wraith

Since the company’s launch in 2007, Sightmark has produced a spectrum of optics and accessories. Their current product catalog includes eighteen models of red dots, seven binoculars, six spotting scopes, twenty-nine riflescopes (including some day/night digital versions), and more. They’ve just introduced a new digital scope to their Wraith series, and this one differs from their other optics in that it’s a thermal unit. The new Wraith Mini Thermal is now available for pre-order, and you can get more details in Sightmark’s press release copied below.

Sightmark has a new Wraith Digital Day/Night Riflescope called HD 2-16×28. It has a lower magnification to provide the user with a larger field of view while scanning or tracking animals through the riflescope. The Sightmark Wraith 2x is intended for fast-moving hog and varmint hunting.

New at CZ-USA’s booth were two Scorpion pistols in configurations that consumers have been looking for.  The first was a super short pistol with collapsing brace called the Scorpion EVO 3 S1 “Micro”.  The Micro features a 4″ barrel, SB tactical telescoping brace, HB Industries’ short hand guard, a Faux Osprey suppressor (placeholder until one gets a real one) and a collapsed OAL of only 16″.  CZ aims to get this pistol into consumer’s hands by Q2/Q3 2018.

Self described boutique AR manufacturer Houlding Precision Firearms showed up at the Blue August Gun and Outdoor conference with plenty of nice toys for us media folks to play with. While I have grown bored of the AR platform (and it seems most of our readers have too due to “oh look, another AR” in the comments) it is refreshing to see one that has been done just right or is fascinatingly unique. Houlding started in 2011 by Todd Houlding whose family has been involved in agriculture in California since the 1880’s. In fact, over 90% of almonds consumed in the US come from his area!Todd broke into the business because of his passion for firearms, and this passion shows in all aspects of the assembly and manufacturing processes:
