New “Miss Hoptober” Predator Decoy By Montana Decoy
Montana Decoy
Colstrip, MT --(Ammoland.com)- The new Miss Hoptober is a
foolproof way to trick even the wiliest ol’ coyotes. Utilizing Montana
Decoy’s all new HD photography, this life-like rabbit setups a scenario
too tempting for any coyote to resist.

“As predator hunting has gained in popularity, coyotes are adapting to
the pressure,” said Jerry McPherson, owner of Montana Decoys.
“In order to be successful, hunters need to go a step further. The call gets
the coyote’s attention but the all new Miss Hoptober is the key to make
your coyote commit.”
Miss Hoptober Cotton Tail Predator Decoy By Montana Deco
Developed to fool even the most demanding eyes, the ultra realistic HD
photography on Montana Decoy’s new Miss Hoptober takes realism to
an all new level.
The simple twist-and-stake set up is a hallmark of all Montana Decoys
and the new HD Miss Hoptober fits easily in a predator vest or pack.
Measuring a scant 10×5 inches folded, the Miss Hoptober Predator
Decoy expands to 24×10 inches set up. Weighing in at a mere 7 oz means
it will go unnoticed until you stop to call.
Suggested retail for the Miss Hoptober is $19.99 and will be on dealer
shelves by February 2011.
Visit www.montanadecoy.com or call 888-332-6998 for a full list of
decoys, tips and where to find a dealer near you.
About Montana Decoy
Created in 1996 by Jerry McPherson, Montana Decoy got its start from
an average hunter trying to improve his bowhunting success. Tormented
by an uncooperative bull elk, McPherson returned to his truck, thinking
about how he could design a packable decoy without adding bulk and
weight. McPherson got inspiration from folding band saw blades. He
utilized the same twist-and-fold concept to hold open the decoy image.
Montana Decoy offers turkey, elk, whitetail, mule deer, antelope and
predator options along with a Moo Cow confidence decoy. All share the
same ease of use, light weight and ultra realistic HD photography.

Majority of State Chief Executives Now Members of Governors
Sportsmen’s Caucus
Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation
Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- The bipartisan Governors
Sportsmen’s Caucus (GSC) recently added four new members, reaching
the milestone of 29 member Governors, a majority of the 50 state chief
executives.
The GSC is modeled after the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus (CSC)
in the U.S. Congress in Washington, DC, and the 38 states sportsmen’s
caucuses that make up the National Assembly of Sportsmen’s Caucuses
(NASC).
“Although this Caucus is only a year old, having a majority of
the nation’s Governors joining together in a common purpose
of protecting and advancing sportsmen’s access to resources
is a major accomplishment for our overall state program,”
said Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation President Jeff
Crane.

The GSC was launched July 17, 2009 to facilitate communication and
information exchange between participating offices in support of
legislation and regulations that promote and protect hunting, fishing and
the shooting sports. The members of the GSC work closely with their
respective state sportsmen’s caucuses in advancing sportsmen’s interests
in the states.
“The CSF State Program, including the state legislative
caucuses and the Governors has grown tremendously over
the last few years, complimenting one another and making
sure that sportsmen in their states have access to quality
habitat,” said Bethany O’Donovan, Director of CSF State
Programs.
The collective force of the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus, the
National Assembly of Sportsmen’s Caucuses, and the Governors
Sportsmen’s Caucus, working closely with the Congressional
Sportsmen’s Foundation, serves as an unprecedented network of pro-
sportsmen legislators and chief executives that promote and protect the
agenda of America’s hunters and anglers.

Animal Rights Groups Lie & Twist Facts to Stop NJ Bear Hunt

well meaning supporters to unknowingly spread their half truths as
facts. – AmmoLand.com

New Jersey Outdoor Alliance
TRENTON, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- Below is an announced plan to
stop New Jersey’s black bear hunt by two animal rights organizations.
Readers should keep in mind as they read the plan that although the
organizations reference a recent study by Dr. Edward Tvass,
Dr. Tvass’ PhD is in physical-organic chemistry and not
wildlife management or wildlife biology.
His past works on black bears do not appear to have been subjected to
scholarly peer review, which “requires a community of experts in a
narrowly defined field, who are qualified and able to perform impartial
review. Peer review is generally considered essential to academic
quality, and used in most important scientific publications.”
The plan also states that the during the Black Bear Management Policy
Comment Period 9,287 comments were received and 6,484 (70%) were
against the hunt.
It should be noted that of the 6484 comments against the
hunt more than 3,000 were reported to have been submitted
by the Humane Society of the United States from their
membership ranks, without signatures and apparently
without the knowledge of those whose names were
submitted.
Finally, the animal rights extremists make a claim (below) that “the NJ
Division of Fish and Wildlife, in conjunction with the NJ Fish and Game
Council sabotaged, manipulated, and lied to NJ residents about black
bears to garner support for their brutal hunt.”
Readers should note that the Anti Defamation League lists the Executive
Director of one of the organizations making the claim as a press officer of
a “growing group of tested, well-spoken above ground activists who
will provide the media with information regarding actions by the
underground, along with explanations of their ideology and
philosophy.”
The ADL continues, “the press office is not limited to speaking on behalf
of the Animal Liberation Front (ALF), the nation’s most active extreme
animal rights movement. The press officers are associated with other
animal rights groups, both mainstream and more militant, like Stop
Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) and the Animal Defense League.”
Below is the message from BEAR Group and APLNJ (formerly New
Jersey Animal Rights Alliance) to stop the bear hunt:
————————————
NJ – There are Only 63 Days Left to Save Our Bears
Dear Members, Supporters and Friends,
There are Only 63 Days Left to Save Our Bears Two critical
actions to do immediately – NEW INFORMATION BELOW
Today, representatives from the Coalition to Protect New
Jersey Black Bears are meeting with Robert Martin
(Commissioner, Department of Environmental Protection)
and his chief of staff, Magdalena Padilla.
Today also marks the day when Dr. Edward Tavss’ study is
being released.
This week, we will be releasing every scandal involved with
Black Bear management in New Jersey. How the NJ
Division of Fish and Wildlife, in conjunction with the NJ Fish
and Game Council sabotaged, manipulated, and lied to NJ
residents about black bears to garner support for their
brutal hunt.
NEW INFORMATION
Dr. Ed Tavss’ Study In a study released today, Rutgers
University Professor Dr. Edward Tavss states, contrary to
what the NJ Division of Wildlife (DFW) claims, bear
nuisance complaints in New Jersey have significantly
declined. The Tavss Study took 5 months and utilized 4700
records obtained by the DFW through the Open Public
Records Act.
Dr. Tavss study is here:
http://aplnj.org/EdTavss2010Study.pdf or here:
http://savenjbears.com/EdTavsse2010Study.pdf The Press
Release is here: http://tinyurl.com/393wjqow
Please help us publicize Ed Tavss’ study. Write about this in
your letters to the editor. (See number 2 below.)
ACTIONS: The Governor Governor Christie HAS the power
to stop the bear hunt. In 2000, Governor Whitman stopped
the hunt a few days before it was due to begin. We must
remind the Governor how much support bears have in our
state. The actions below are CRITICAL! We are asking you

to help us make a huge statement for bears over the coming
weeks. We MUST make bears the Number 1 issue in New
Jersey. We need your help to do this. Please forward this
alert to everyone you know.
October 4 – October 9:
1. Please call, write, fax, webmail or write Governor Christie
EVERY single day. Be polite, but firm. Do not allow them to
switch you to another department. Please let us know if you
encounter any problems.
CALL: 609-292-6000 FAX: 609-292-3454 WEBMAIL:
http://www.state.nj.us/governor/contact/ (pick
Environment, then Fish and Wildlife)
Write: Governor Christie Office of the Governor PO Box 001
Trenton, NJ 08625-0001
Talking points:
1. Please read Ed’s Tavss’ report on his study. Please read
the press release. This conclusively proves the nuisance
complaints went down, so Christie’s justification for a hunt
is unfounded. Even if nuisance complaints went up, the hunt
will NOT solve problems. Learn all you can. Time is running
out.
2. The Division of Fish and Wildlife, along with the NJ Fish
and Game Council not only sabotaged nonlethal black bear
management, but deliberately inflated the nuisance
complaints.
3. Ask the Governor to STOP the hunt. He has several
options, several ways he can do this without much political
backlash. Millions of NJ residents are against this hunt and
will be outraged and devastated if it goes through.
2. Please write a short “letter to the editor” to your local
newspaper about Dr. Ed Tavss’ study. Locate their contact
information below. Include your name, address and phone
number for verification purposes. NOTE: Everyone reads
the letters section in their local and weekly papers. We
cannot reach everyone by e-mail, so it is critical that we
keep the issue alive in the newspapers. If you have a local
paper you’d like us to include in future alerts, please send us
the contact information.
In the meantime, APLNJ and the BEAR Group’s efforts will
continue, grow and expand – as needed. Please look
forward to additional alerts, rallies planned, etc. in the
upcoming weeks. Please see below for a sampling of what
we’ve done to date, things in progress and things planned.
We are also open to suggestions and welcome input from
everyone.

“I’m very happy with my performance here at the NC USPSA
Sectional. Having the support of your teammates makes all
the difference in the world; whether it’s identifying

the top five of his division in seven of nine stages of competition.
“The NC USPSA Sectional was one of the best matches I’ve
shot all year. The staff did a great job as the stages were very
challenging and fun to shoot. I shot a strong match with very
few mistakes on my way to a 3rd place finish in the
Production Division,” commented Byerly.
“My teammate Morgan and I were able to formulate effective
strategies for each stage that allowed us to perform our best.
Training together and training smarter has accelerated our
improvement tremendously. “

Say hello to the new Alpine BLUSH.
Bob Proctor, President of Alpine put it this way: “One thing
about Alpine, we listen. We had been getting more and more
requests from the females in our sport to make a bow just for
them.
They wanted a bow that would not only look awesome on the
shooting line but have the performance and accuracy needed
to win. So we went to work.
We combined all the features Alpine is known for; stand out
looks, light weight, shootability and the high-performance
every archer wants.
Alpine Archery Blush Bow - Just For The Ladies
We made it Alpine smooth and forgiving because today’s
woman wants it that way. And, because women want a
distinctive female look we offered the BLUSH in a striking
pink camo with beautiful Rosewood grip.
After all every woman wants to look good on the line and
especially when accepting the trophy. Then we added a nice
little touch to the riser, an antique finished emblem that tells
the world – ‘Because you are as good as he is’.”
The BLUSH may look terrific and shoot smooth as silk but it is all
business with a very un-lady like IBO speed of 290 fps at 27” draw length
and its all available for a bank account pleasing low, out the door price of
only $399.
Now you can afford to travel to the shoots you plan on winning.
BLUSH – Just for the ladies.

Gun Vault
San Bernardino, Ca -(Ammoland.com)- GunVault is proud to
announce that its MicroBioVault was recently honored as “Safety
Product of the Year” by the Shooting Industry Academy of Excellence.
The MicroBioVault’s unique, notebook-style design allows one to
securely transport a handgun or valuables. Incredibly compact and
lightweight, this safe will fit inside a briefcase or daypack and can be
quickly accessed with GunVault’s No-Eyes® keypad and biometric
fingerprint recognition technology.
“We are thrilled to receive this award from Shooting Industry,” said Mike
Baker, president of GunVault. “It’s a tremendous honor to be chosen as
this year’s best when it comes to security products from such an
esteemed group of industry leaders.”
The award was presented on July 23, 2010 during the 8th Annual
Shooting Industry Masters in Grand Island, Neb. The 500-member
academy, comprised of manufacturers, distributors and dealers
considered 114 product entries and 41 service award entries this year.
This marks the 19th year that these outstanding achievements have been
formally recognized by the academy.
The MicroBioVault uses biometrics, specifically fingerprint recognition,
to access the safe contents faster and more securely than ever before. A
high-performance algorithm is used to achieve speedy identification of
enrolled fingerprints and at the same time has a very low False Reject
Rate (FRR). The system can handle up to 60 fingerprint templates.
The MicroBioVault is constructed of tamper-proof, heavy-gauge steel
and features a soft foam interior to protect contents. The keypad triggers
a lid that not only has a high-strength lock mechanism, but also performs
reliably, time after time. Precise fittings are virtually impossible to pry
open with hand tools. Powered by four AA batteries that last one year
under normal conditions, the audio and LED low warning clearly
indicate when the batteries need to be replaced. Back-up key is also
provided for emergency access.

Excellence, visit www.shootingindustry.com.

weapons. These tags include highly secure two way wireless RuBee data
links, as well as, custom sensors and high gain, dynamic amplification
CMOS technology. The tags are based on several custom integrated
circuits designed by VISIBILE. These unique chip designs help reduce
power consumption so the tags have a minimum five year battery life to a
maximum fifteen year battery life in normal field use, with conventional
coin size Li batteries. Long battery life wireless tags make it possible to
permanently seal tags into a MIL-STD-810G rugged package. The
advanced state machine CPU contained in the tags is capable of
providing complex real-time signal processing, waveform analysis, round
interval statistics and a programmable predictor of barrel wear based on
barrel temperature histograms. Independent test of the VISIBLE shot
counter have consistently shown a 99% or better accuracy in basic shot
counting mode.
John K. Stevens, CEO of Visible Assets, Inc. said, “This award
represents an important milestone for our company. We have
made a major investment in this technology and have worked
hard over last several years to meet the high standards set by
the US military for a combat based weapon shot counter. We
are excited to have the opportunity to work with the experts
at Crane as a result of the award. This award will help
optimize our current weapon shot counting tag with many
additional battlefield features so we can improve safety,
reliability and performance of mission critical weapons used
by our troops”
The same shot counting tags also support full weapon visibility networks
within any armory. Armory 20/20™, the VISIBLE automated armory
system, provides real-time secure, fully automated weapons inventory,
weapons issuance check in/out with full exit/entry management and
weapons pedigree. RuBee armory networks provide high security with no

SIG SAUER
EXETER, NH --(Ammoland.com)- Team SIG Captain, Max Michel,
walked away with the US IPSC National Open Division title after
competing at the 2010 US IPSC National Championship, held at the Mid-
Carolina Rifle Club near Columbia, SC on October 1 – 2, 2010.
The US IPSC Nationals, a Level III IPSC Match, serves as one of four
qualifier matches to select the US teams for the 2011 IPSC World Shoot
XVI in Greece. More than 100 competitors from across the country came
out to participate in the match, which consisted of 12 stages and ran
under IPSC rules.
Competing against 47 division competitors, Michel finished in the top
three in all twelve stages, including nine first place finishes, to help
clinch his Open title with a score of 938.8411, or 100%.
Michel is currently in the lead to not only make the U.S team, but also to

“I was unable to attend last year’s US IPSC Nationals, so this
was an important event for me. The selection process takes
your 3 highest scores of the 4 selection matches and with me
not competing last year, it put me in a hard spot with no
margin to fail,” commented Michel.
“However, I am excited to be in the lead for Team Captain
with winning the USPSA Nationals last year, as well as the
IPSC Nationals this year. I am looking forward to competing
with my peers once again in Las Vegas to determine this
year’s USPSA National Champion, as well as Team USA.”

New Jersey Outdoor Alliance
TRENTON, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- The officers of the New Jersey
Outdoor Alliance have determined it is best not to make endorsements in
the upcoming federal elections (congress and US senate) this upcoming
November.
The focus of our organization is primarily on state issues and to perform
the necessary steps to make a fair and thorough examination of all
federal candidates and conclude with an array of endorsements is
currently beyond the capabilities of our all-volunteer organization.
However, as we have in the past, we will on occasion become involved at
the federal level if an individual case can be justified.
In fact, two years ago the NJOA did believe it was justified to endorse
John Adler for congress. Even though we will not be endorsing federal
candidates this year we want to be clear to outdoorsmen and
outdoorswomen that we believe Congressman Adler has done an
exceptional job representing our state’s outdoor interests in Washington,
DC. We also believe it is our obligation to recognize the efforts of
legislators we have endorsed and who work diligently on behalf of our
issues.
Therefore, out of respect to his commitment and efforts to New Jersey’s
outdoor community the officers of the NJOA feel it is appropriate to
forward a letter from Congressman Adler that is addressed to each of
you.
My personal thanks go out to Congressman Adler. I have enjoyed
working with him during the past two years and look forward to our
future joint efforts in advancing conservation and environmental
stewardship.
Sincerely,
Anthony P. Mauro, Sr
Chair
New Jersey Outdoor Alliance
Letter from Congressman Adler follows:
——————————————-
Dear Sportsman-
I am a strong and unwavering supporter of Second
Amendment and sportsmen’s rights. Sporting is a valued
pass-time, major economic contributor and to many folks in
South Jersey and the Shore-area, a way of life. In the many
“town halls” and public events I’ve had in towns like
Manahawkin, Tuckerton and Toms River, I hear regularly
about how critical it is to protect the community’s right to
fish. That is why I am rolling up my sleeves in Congress to
stand up for local hunters and fishermen.
I host a Sportsmen Advisory Board, because I am interested
in the thoughts and concerns of hunters and fishers. As a
member of the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus, I
advocate for pro-hunting policies with members of both
sides of the aisle.
I supported the Omnibus Public Lands Management Act,
which preserves millions of acres of wilderness, establishes
new parks and monuments, and makes other down
payments for the future of sporting and hunting in our great
country. Among the most critical amendments to this bill
was one which protects the Constitutional right to bear arms
in our National Parks. It is critical that taxpayers be able to
hunt on the very land they helped finance.
I will always vote to preserve Second Amendment rights.
When the government tried to intrude on our privacy by
taking away certain weapons designed for hunting, I was
proud to stand tall with our sportsmen. I wrote the
Secretary of Homeland Security to let her know, we can
keep our country safe and free without impeding the rights
afforded to hunters and fishers. I also voted to protect the
right to bear arms in federal housing and in Puerto Rico.
Fishing has always provided a living for families at the
shore. We must work to continue this tradition. I have
introduced legislation to help clean Barnegat Bay and put
into place a plan to ensure its long-term health. My bill will
help protect a valued natural resource, as well as the $3.3
billion worth of benefits that Barnegat Bay brings to our
local economy.
As an original cosponsor of The Flexibility in Rebuilding
American Fisheries Act, I believe that more flexibility is
needed in the process so that unrealistic quotas are not
implemented to the detriment of our fishermen and New
Jersey’s shore economy. Fishery management experts state
that rebuilding requirements are too rigid and may not be
the best way to manage species in diverse environments. The

bill I sponsored can help bring some common-sense to the
way fisheries are managed. I am proud to help keep our
fishermen working.
Hunting and fishing has been a way of life for many
Americans since our great nation’s founding. I pledge to
preserve this tradition for many generations to come.
Sincerely,
John Adler
Member of Congress

RESET and Lewis Machine and Tool Company form Alliance
RIPR - Rifle Integrated Power Rail
Simi Valley, Ca. -(Ammoland.com)- RESET is pleased to announce its
alliance with Lewis Machine and Tool Company (LMT).
This alliance joins RIPR’s power and data rail’s open architecture to an
esteemed weapon and component manufacturer that has
a strong track record of providing weapons and accessories to the Special
Operations Community. The RIPR (Rifle Integrated
Power Rail) is the first working product that brings centralized power
and data transmission to the upper rail of a carbine or rifle
platform.
“We are ecstatic to be working with the LMT design and manufacturing
team. This brings to RIPR, an excellent opportunity to join
up with a high quality weapon platform. From our first meeting at Shot
Show until now, Karl Lewis has had an open mind toward the future and
sees the exciting life saving technology that this teaming can bring to our
military forces. The future of tactical weapons integrating RIPR
technology is going to be very exciting” says Galen Puccini, Chief
Operating Officer at RESET, manufacturer of RIPR.
RIPR brings significant capabilities to the future war fighter. RIPR
provides power and data transmission through a 1913- Picatinny-Nato
rail by attaching a rail with integrated power source onto existing and
future weapons. RIPR’s integrated battery pack is central, universal and
agnostic to the accessories it powers. RIPR power can be modified, and
upgraded without rebuild of the (battery centric) individual accessories
such as lasers, illuminating and thermal devices, optics, and others.
Karl Lewis, President of LMT states, “We are looking forward to LMT
designing and building platforms that can integrate RIPR technology
with “purpose built accessories”. LMT will work on designs that more
directly integrate the RIPR into the upper weapon platform, most
significantly with the fielded M-4 carbine”.
RIPR’s architecture is open to ALL weapon and accessory manufacturers

as well as supports the modernization requirements put forth by U.S.
DOD and NATO. Many of the established accessory companies in the
industry are working towards the RIPR platform, including Laser
Devices Inc. who recently teamed with RESET to provide some of the
first “purpose built “accessory devices. These devices will be powered by
RIPR’s central power pack and are designed to eliminate the individual
devices batteries and battery housing, thus reducing size and weight by
up to 40%. RIPR continues to make significant strides in helping the US
Army meet its SWAP-C (size, weight, power and cost goals).
