June 1st, 2026

AUSTIN, TX — June 1, 2026 — Atrius Development Group is proud to announce its “Together We Win” initiative, launching today and running throughout the entire month of June. During this time, a portion of Atrius Development Group’s proceeds will be donated to the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) to support its ongoing legal, educational, and advocacy efforts.

“We are proud to support the Second Amendment Foundation and its mission to uphold and defend the constitutional rights of all Americans,” said Atrius CEO and Founder Ryan Spadafore. “We are proud to stand alongside organizations and a unique team of individuals dedicated to preserving the rights and values deeply important to millions of Americans across the nation, bringing a positive shift to the gun culture.”Atrius specializes in developing innovative firearm forced reset technologies and solutions for the AR-15 platform. Its flagship product, the Atrius Forced Reset Selector, is a 3-position, reverse compatible, compliant semi-automatic solution that allows users to switch between safe, semi and super-semi — a high-speed, forced-reset, semi-auto mode.

Designed for drop-in compatibility with standard AR-15 fire control groups, the Atrius Forced Reset Selector provides a reliable and durable upgrade favored by Americans from all walks of life who share a passion for firearms and responsible ownership. Atrius is a veteran-owned and operated company, and all products are proudly made in the USA, showcasing American craftsmanship and a passion for the Second Amendment that pushes the envelope of what is possible in the 2A space.

“After joining SAF’s corporate partner program just over a month ago, we have seen firsthand the critical importance of the Foundation’s work,” said Spadafore. “SAF remains at the forefront of defending our Second Amendment freedoms, and we are honored to contribute to that mission. We encourage our customers and the broader firearms community to learn more about SAF’s efforts and join us in supporting the fight to preserve our constitutional rights.”

SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut expressed his gratitude for the initiative: “The support of corporate partners like Atrius allows SAF to remain at the tip of the spear fighting against those who wish to trample our Second Amendment freedoms. We are truly grateful they chose SAF as the beneficiary of this unique program.”

Savox Introduces Savox Fire Protect – a Fully Integrated Communication and Active In Ear Hearing Protection Solution for Firefighters

June 1st, 2026

Espoo, Finland – Savox, a global provider of mission critical communication solutions, today announces Savox Fire Protect, the world’s first fully integrated firefighter communication system combining active in ear hearing protection and wireless push to talk (PTT) in a single, purpose designed solution.

Firefighters operate in high noise, high risk environments where communication clarity, hearing protection and ease of use are essential. Existing solutions typically require trade offs between audio quality, hearing protection, usability or resistance to heat. Passive hearing protection can reduce situational awareness, while current wireless PTT solutions are often ergonomically compromised when used under protective clothing or with heavy gloves.

Savox Fire Protect has been designed to remove these compromises

Savox Fire Protect provides firefighters with a complete communication solution that combines active hearing protection, clear audio and intuitive wireless PTT operation. The system can be worn over or under fire resistant protective clothing, or under a chemical diving suit, without restricting movement or usability.

The solution consists of the Savox NC 100 active in ear headset with internal microphone, the Savox TRICS C2 radio control system, and the Savox W P100 wireless PTT control unit. All elements are designed for reliable operation in demanding firefighting conditions and for use with standard protective equipment.

“The requirements of firefighters differ fundamentally from those of other professional users,” said Elmeri Backman, Portfolio Manager, Savox Communications. “Savox Fire Protect is purpose designed for firefighting operations, ensuring reliable communication, active hearing protection and ease of use without compromise.”

The individual technologies used in Savox Fire Protect are based on Savox solutions that have been extensively deployed in real world military and rescue operations globally. With Fire Protect, these proven technologies are brought together into a fully integrated system tailored specifically for firefighting applications.

Savox Fire Protect expands Savox’s portfolio of mission critical communication solutions for professionals operating in safety critical environments, supporting improved situational awareness, communication reliability and user safety.

Smart Shooter Secures First US Navy Contract for SMASH 2000LE Fire Control Systems

June 1st, 2026

The $1.8 million award marks Smart Shooter’s entry into another major U.S. military market segment, following recent contracts with the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Air Force, amid growing operational demand for counter-drone capabilities

[June 1, 2026] – Smart Shooter, a designer, developer, and manufacturer of innovative fire control systems, announced today its first significant contract with the U.S. Navy. Under the contract, valued at approximately $1.8 million, the company’s U.S. subsidiary, Smart Shooter Inc., will supply the U.S. Department of War with soldier-portable SMASH 2000LE (also known as SMASH 3000SA) fire control systems. Delivery of the systems to the U.S. Navy is expected in the second half of 2026.

The agreement represents Smart Shooter’s entry into an additional major U.S. military market segment and marks another strategic step in the company’s expansion with the U.S. Department of War. The contract follows a series of agreements signed over the past year with other U.S. military branches, including the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the U.S. Air Force. These successive awards reflect increasing operational demand among U.S. military branches for Smart Shooter’s solutions in response to the expanding drone threat.

The contract was awarded by the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC), the U.S. Navy’s central organization for research, development, testing, evaluation, and engineering of systems related to surface warfare. The procurement will be carried out through Atlantic Diving Supply Inc. (ADS), a leading authorized provider of tactical equipment, logistics, and procurement solutions for the U.S. Department of War and federal agencies.

Michal Mor, CEO of Smart Shooter, said: “Securing our first significant contract with the U.S. Navy marks an important milestone in Smart Shooter’s continued expansion across U.S. defense organizations. This award reflects our entry into another key military market segment and further demonstrates the confidence placed in our unique SMASH technology. Together with our recent agreements with the U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Air Force, this latest award underscores the growing operational need for precise, reliable, and field-ready solutions to address the drone threat.”

Smart Shooter’s SMASH family of fire control systems is deployed by defense and security forces in the United States, Israel, the UK, Germany, NATO member countries, and additional allied nations, providing enhanced precision, situational awareness, and effective engagement against evolving battlefield threats.

Rampart Range Day 26 – Galvion

June 1st, 2026

During last year’s Rampart Range Day Galvion collected data for their helmet sizing app. This year, they continued the process but for the new Hellbender helmet rather than the Cayman series. Additionally, they collected data on some new helmet accessories I’m not allowed to show yet.

I rally have no idea why I’m looking up but I must have had a good reason.
