Calling Coyotes like the Pros AGI 601

American Technologies Network is introducing the latest product in their ThOR series of thermal optical rifle scopes; the ATN ThOR-320. The ATN ThOR series of thermal imaging scopes are based on the same 320 x 240 high resolution microbolometer core technology used by the US Military and law enforcement agencies. The new ATN ThOR-320 is the smallest, most compact and lightweight in the ThOR series. The ThOR-320 uses forward-looking infrared (FLIR) that detects heat to create the visible image. The ThOR-320 provides extremely clear images through total darkness, fog or smoke. Nothing affects the sensitivity of these mini scopes, neither darkness, camouflage nor bright lights.

Freedom Hunter has been asked to take over the Devil Dog Elk Hunt. The hunt takes place on the 600,000 acre Vermejo Ranch. This opportunity comes to Freedom Hunters thanks to Matt Keil and Nick Orchowski. Matt and Nick have both been on the hunt, so they will be the guides to what needs done to have a successful hunt. The hunt was started 11 years ago by three Marines: Lew Deal, Craig Boddington and Goegh Miller. This cow elk hunt has always catered to those severely wounded in battle. Freedom Hunters will be looking for servicemen or women that can not physically hunt elk otherwise. It is a true honor for the organization to take over a hunt with such a long history of honoring our heroes. It is their goal to maintain this hunt as long as there are veterans who need an opportunity to relax in the great outdoors. They would like to find wounded vets from across the country. If you know of anyone who Freedom Hunters can honor, let us know. In years past, travel to NM was the hunters responsibility. If Freedom Hunters can raise additional funds, they would like to see travel covered too. The veterans and volunteers will be staying at the NRA's Whittington Center outside Raton, NM. 

Please let them know if you can help.

Q: Is there any benefit to applying TUF-GLIDE and letting it dry completely?  If I apply TUF-GLIDE and wipe it off in less than 5 minutes is that just as good as leaving it on overnight to dry when it comes to preventing corrosion? I don't mean wipe it off with a TUF-CLOTH. I mean a good quality cloth for a nice polish that will wipe off any visible amount of the TUF-GLIDE. I'm really asking about this for times when I apply it to something I have to dis-assemble to apply the TUF-GLIDE. If it doesn't matter I'll just leave the parts wet and re-assemble. If I need to remove all the TUF-GLIDE before re-assembling something, should I let the parts sit overnight and wipe everything off the next day?  

A: When it comes to protection against corrosion, more protection is always better. However, TUF-GLIDE delivers excellent results when the minimum is used; it will also dry much more quickly. The most important issue is to apply TUF-GLIDE to clean surfaces.  

When lubricating a firearm or folding knife with TUF-GLIDE, it is best to work the action; allow the item to sit for 5 minutes or so, longer if TUF-GLIDE is also being used as the cleaner to remove any other lubricant and then wipe off any excess. When applying TUF-GLIDE to a flat surface such as the side of a pistol slide, magazine or knife blade, if the needle applicator was used to apply it, the needle can be used like a paint brush to spread the TUF-GLIDE film. A thinner film of TUF-GLIDE will dry more quickly. The reality is an excess of TUF-GLIDE is almost always applied and if allowed to penetrate wiping off any excess does not compromise the performance.

Tuff Writer Inc. listened to their customer base and have responded with a new Operator Series tactical pen with the new features their customers requested in the ultimate must-have tool such as allowing the cap to post on the back while writing, an o-ring to help prevent the cap from accidentally loosening and seal out moisture as well as a newly profiled cold-pressed spring steel clip. The new Operator is designed, machined and assembled in the U.S.A. to be the toughest pen on the market, period.  These bad boys are made to withstand environmental extremes of heat and cold and function without fail.  The new Operator is now even stronger with an increased wall thickness to handle additional punishment. The Operator will withstand nearly 750 PSI without breaking a sweat.  A MIL-A-8625 "F" anodizing over a non-marking finish provides a "rock-hard" surface finish to handle the elements and anything else the world throws at it.
