About the Redring Optical Shotgun Sight:
The Redring helps beginners and seasoned shooters achieve better aim on the moving target and hit more targets successfully. Unlike traditional sights sold on the market, the Redring features smart technology that allows the shooter to immediately take fast and instinctive shots with both eyes open. This sight is not for aiming, it’s for fast shotgun shooting. It gives the hunter another reference point to confidently bag the birds with less-to-zero collateral damage to game.

It works by a specifically designed and placed magnet in an adjustable hiking pole style housing with comfortable padded handle and convenient wrist strap. The magnet is designed and placed to cause the hulls to “walk” up the side of the lower few inches of the pole, thus preventing “cluster” at the end and allowing a box of 25 or more to be retrieved at one time, which can then be easily “rake” off into any container.

Video of Product in Action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xwssngq6poQ

Works well on hard ground, in the water, mud or snow and doubles as a handy walking or wading pole.
Convenient removal of hulls ensures that most, if not all will be removed from the field, contributing to better relations with land owners, which helps all hunters and shooters.

The poster is available in two sizes–the standard 8.5 x 11 inches and a larger 11 x 17 size–and is suitable for displaying at shooting ranges, firearms retail shops and outdoor-equipment stores, as well as sharing on websites, blogs and social media sites.

The poster encourages firearms owners to know the rules and regulations related to shooting in fire-prone areas; to minimize the risk of fire by not using ammunition that is steel-jacketed or has steel-core components, and by not using tracer rounds or exploding targets; to remember that a vehicle or ATV’s hot exhaust pipes could ignite a fire; and to properly extinguish campfires, among other fire-prevention measures.

Wildfires have many possible causes, and target shooters and hunters who are aware of their surroundings, cautious and responsible can make sure they are not among them.

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The marked success of the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s FFL Compliance Consulting Program, in which NSSF provides financial assistance to allow one of its team of retired Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) experts to make a personal visit and consultation to member retailers, has significantly increased demand for this service. Consequently, NSSF has announced the addition of two highly qualified, retired ATF inspectors, Jean Zabel and Gene Baker, to its consulting team to lend their expertise to the industry’s premier firearms retailer inspection program.

Through the NSSF FFL Compliance Consulting Program, member retailers requiring assistance contact NSSF, which coordinates requests with former ATF compliance officials participating in the program. A compliance advisor will then personally visit the retailer to assess its level of ATF compliance, conduct a review of internal controls over firearms and record keeping and train the retailer and staff to help the business to be prepared for an ATF compliance inspection and pass it with flying colors. The price of this service for members is only $499. NSSF, as the trade association for the firearms, ammunition, hunting and shooting sports industry, also will pick up other fees of compliance advisors, including all travel expenses.

“NSSF is fortunate to be able to bring Jean Zabel and Gene Baker to the FFL Compliance Consulting team,” said Patrick Shay, NSSF director, retail development. “Their incredible amount of experience in dealing with ATF inspections will allow them to provide highly constructive insights to any visit they make to a retailer’s business.”

Each ATF compliance advisor brings a wealth of experience to the job, having conducted and supervised hundreds of firearm retailer compliance inspections.

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation^® (NSSF^®) has launched a new Project ChildSafe^® website as part of its “S.A.F.E. Summer” campaign. The new site, and the campaign, are designed to focus attention on the importance of safe and responsible firearm storage, to reinforce that anyone who is going to own a firearm should respect it and secure it, and to provide educational resources that can help prevent firearm accidents and misuse.

The enhanced site at www.projectchildsafe.org features several new interactive tools to help educate visitors on how to properly store firearms when not in use. Visitors can also make a commitment to be a responsible gun owner. Examples of these new tools include:

• An interactive quiz to help owners determine how safely their firearms are stored
• An online pledge to practice and encourage responsible firearm ownership, shareable on social media
• A new infographic designed to help firearm owners choose a safe storage option based on their lifestyle and needs
• Links to information on where to get a Firearm Safety Kit in their area
• Tools for law enforcement agencies looking to partner with Project ChildSafe in distributing firearms safety kits and encouraging firearm safety

“We want to do as much as we can to help responsible firearms owners become powerful voices in sharing safety messages with family members and others in their communities,” says Steve Sanetti, NSSF president and CEO.

With “SAFE” serving as an acronym for Secure your firearms when not in use; Be Aware of those around you who should not have unauthorized access to guns; Focus on your responsibility as a firearm owner and Educate yourself and others about safe firearm handling and storage, “S.A.F.E. Summer” is focused on equipping gun owners take responsible action to keep their families and communities safer, particularly while children are home from school and more likely to be unattended.

NSSF launched Project ChildSafe in 1998 (prior to 2003 the program was called Project HomeSafe) as a nationwide initiative to promote firearms responsibility and provide safety education to all gun owners. While children are a focus, Project ChildSafe is intended to help young people and adults practice greater firearm safety in the home. The program has provided more than 36 million free firearm safety kits to gun owners in all 50 states and five U.S. territories. That’s in addition to the more than 70 million free locking devices manufacturers have included with new firearms sold since 1998 and continue to do today.

Project ChildSafe was originally supported by federal grants provided by the U.S. Department of Justice. Since 2008, when this funding was cut, the firearms manufacturing industry has solely funded the Project ChildSafe program through the members of NSSF.
