If you're a member of our
nation's Armed Forces,

the Department of Defense,
or if your family is,

00:00:27,150 --> 00:00:30,090
we'd be proud to serve you, too.

6
00:00:30,090 --> 00:00:32,520
On this episode of "Defense News Weekly,"

7
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,400
more from our recent trip
to the MCON Conference

8
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:36,930
in Las Vegas.

9
00:00:36,930 --> 00:00:39,900
First, we visit with a former UFC fighter

10
00:00:39,900 --> 00:00:42,600
to hear about our
involvement with We Defy,

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,700
an organization seeking to help veterans

12
00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:47,460
find community through jiujitsu.

13
00:00:47,460 --> 00:00:49,740
Plus, we hear from a company that began

14
00:00:49,740 --> 00:00:52,530
in aerospace engineering
and used those skills

15
00:00:52,530 --> 00:00:54,930
to build precision firearms.

16
00:00:54,930 --> 00:00:58,320
These aren't the rifles
you qualified with in boot.

17
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:02,610
Finally, how has revenue from
arms makers fared recently?

18
00:01:02,610 --> 00:01:05,490
A new report looks at how
the wars in Ukraine and Gaza

19
00:01:05,490 --> 00:01:07,830
have impacted the defense industry.

20
00:01:07,830 --> 00:01:10,920
We've got those stories
and a lot more on tap,

21
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,650
so join us for the latest
in news and analysis

22
00:01:13,650 --> 00:01:15,780
from the Pentagon to the platoon

23
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:17,877
here on "Defense News Weekly."

24
00:01:17,877 --> 00:01:21,377
(upbeat percussive music)

25
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,350
Welcome back to "Defense News Weekly."

26
00:01:40,350 --> 00:01:42,690
Michelle Waterson-Gomez has had a long

27
00:01:42,690 --> 00:01:44,850
and successful career in the ring,

28
00:01:44,850 --> 00:01:47,820
competing at the highest
levels of the UFC.

29
00:01:47,820 --> 00:01:50,820
As a military spouse, she
understands the importance

30
00:01:50,820 --> 00:01:54,720
of community that many veterans
find through martial arts.

31
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,580
At the recent MCON Conference,

32
00:01:56,580 --> 00:01:59,550
Michelle spoke to us about
her work with We Defy,

33
00:01:59,550 --> 00:02:02,610
an organization that seeks
to help veterans find support

34
00:02:02,610 --> 00:02:05,880
through scholarships to
join jujitsu schools.

35
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:06,856
Take a look.

36
00:02:06,856 --> 00:02:11,856
(screen whooshing)
(bright music)

37
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:14,670
- My name is Michelle Waterson-Gomez,

38
00:02:14,670 --> 00:02:16,650
and I am here today at MCON,

39
00:02:16,650 --> 00:02:19,530
and I will be teaching
a seminar on the mats

40
00:02:19,530 --> 00:02:21,851
at the We Defy station.
(crowd applauding)

41
00:02:21,851 --> 00:02:23,083
Have a wipe out!

42
00:02:23,083 --> 00:02:25,170
(crowd laughing)

43
00:02:25,170 --> 00:02:26,190
- [Attendee] I want to try!

44
00:02:26,190 --> 00:02:28,770
- So the seminar today is
gonna be a quick seminar.

45
00:02:28,770 --> 00:02:30,300
We only have about an hour and a half,

46
00:02:30,300 --> 00:02:32,160
so we're gonna just start with the basics.

47
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:33,600
Every fight starts standing,

48
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,160
so we're gonna start the fight standing,

49
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,900
and kind of teach you how to get in

50
00:02:36,900 --> 00:02:38,610
on a good single-leg take down,

51
00:02:38,610 --> 00:02:39,930
so a little bit of wrestling.

52
00:02:39,930 --> 00:02:41,070
And then once we hit the mats,

53
00:02:41,070 --> 00:02:42,930
we're gonna kind of show
you what we're gonna do,

54
00:02:42,930 --> 00:02:45,330
what are some different
submissions that we can attack

55
00:02:45,330 --> 00:02:47,380
once we hit the mats from that take-down?

56
00:02:48,310 --> 00:02:51,780
(attendee speaking faintly)
(bright music continues)

57
00:02:51,780 --> 00:02:54,390
I've been doing martial arts
for as long as I can remember,

58
00:02:54,390 --> 00:02:55,830
since I was about 10 years old.

59
00:02:55,830 --> 00:02:58,170
And then when I got old
enough, I started fighting,

60
00:02:58,170 --> 00:03:00,720
so I fought professionally
for over 18 years.

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,090
I had my black belt in
American Freestyle Karate.

62
00:03:03,090 --> 00:03:07,233
I also have my black belt
in Brazilian jiujitsu,

63
00:03:08,070 --> 00:03:10,800
and I just absolutely love
all things martial arts

64
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,013
because of what it's
done for me in my life.

65
00:03:15,540 --> 00:03:17,460
What brought me here is linking up

66
00:03:17,460 --> 00:03:20,340
with a company called We Defy,

67
00:03:20,340 --> 00:03:22,650
which is a nonprofit organization

68
00:03:22,650 --> 00:03:24,810
that I'm really passionate about.

69
00:03:24,810 --> 00:03:27,090
I am a military spouse,

70
00:03:27,090 --> 00:03:28,830
I come from a military family,

71
00:03:28,830 --> 00:03:32,430
and I really love and support our military

72
00:03:32,430 --> 00:03:34,273
who serve now and who are veterans.

73
00:03:34,273 --> 00:03:37,560
And I believe that there's a
very, very strong correlation

74
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,810
between people in the military

75
00:03:39,810 --> 00:03:41,430
and people who do martial arts,

76
00:03:41,430 --> 00:03:45,150
because it's very singular
focused, singular mindset,

77
00:03:45,150 --> 00:03:48,330
and we bond through doing hard things.

78
00:03:48,330 --> 00:03:51,900
And so what We Defy does is
get veterans on the mats,

79
00:03:51,900 --> 00:03:53,640
and I think it's a beautiful thing,

80
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,090
because a lot of times,
veterans kind of lose their way

81
00:03:57,090 --> 00:03:59,280
when they step away from the military.

82
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,723
They lose their brotherhood,
they lose the structure.

83
00:04:02,723 --> 00:04:06,810
They lose the comradery that they felt,

84
00:04:06,810 --> 00:04:08,580
the discipline that they felt,

85
00:04:08,580 --> 00:04:12,690
and in doing jiujitsu, you
will find all of those things.

86
00:04:12,690 --> 00:04:16,170
So anytime I get the chance
to kind of share my love

87
00:04:16,170 --> 00:04:18,780
and my passion with the rest of the world,

88
00:04:18,780 --> 00:04:21,630
I'm jumping to the opportunity.

89
00:04:21,630 --> 00:04:24,870
So what We Defy does is
they sponsor veterans

90
00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:27,960
to be sponsored athletes
at jujitsu schools

91
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,190
in their community.

92
00:04:29,190 --> 00:04:31,080
And so they have to
vet the jujitsu school,

93
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,060
make sure that it's a legitimate school,

94
00:04:33,060 --> 00:04:35,970
but it really does kind
of give them a space

95
00:04:35,970 --> 00:04:39,330
to lean into themselves,

96
00:04:39,330 --> 00:04:42,360
to give them something to
look forward to every day,

97
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,970
a community that they can grow with,

98
00:04:44,970 --> 00:04:47,490
go and kind of just be themselves.

99
00:04:47,490 --> 00:04:49,800
If you've ever been on
the mats in jiujitsu,

100
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:54,480
you understand that you don't
have to explain yourself

101
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,010
to anybody.

102
00:04:56,010 --> 00:04:58,410
Nobody's gonna treat you any differently,

103
00:04:58,410 --> 00:05:00,330
and that's what a lot
of these veterans want.

104
00:05:00,330 --> 00:05:03,720
They just wanted to be
treated like a normal person,

105
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,550
to come in, they wanna get hard work in,

106
00:05:05,550 --> 00:05:07,086
and they wanna sweat,

107
00:05:07,086 --> 00:05:10,140
they wanna experience
some type of adversity

108
00:05:10,140 --> 00:05:11,540
that's gonna make them grow,

109
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:13,740
and they wanna do it with people

110
00:05:13,740 --> 00:05:15,090
that they love and care about.

111
00:05:15,090 --> 00:05:18,720
We Defy sponsors a athlete
for an entire year.

112
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,270
They pay their tuition on a monthly basis,

113
00:05:21,270 --> 00:05:22,770
they give them uniform,

114
00:05:22,770 --> 00:05:26,040
and give them the head
start that they need

115
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,660
on their jujitsu journey.

116
00:05:27,660 --> 00:05:30,210
So if you're a veteran
interested in receiving

117
00:05:30,210 --> 00:05:31,890
a scholarship from We Defy,

118
00:05:31,890 --> 00:05:34,110
and starting your jujitsu journey,

119
00:05:34,110 --> 00:05:37,080
go to the We Defy website,
fill out the application,

120
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,640
and if you get that scholarship,

121
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,150
they'll be able to link you
up with a affiliate school

122
00:05:42,150 --> 00:05:43,066
in your community.

123
00:05:43,066 --> 00:05:43,899
(screen whooshing)

124
00:05:43,899 --> 00:05:46,800
- [Announcer] When we come
back, we visit MCON's Range Day

125
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,460
to talk firearm safety,
see a new modular handgun,

126
00:05:50,460 --> 00:05:52,320
and discover what happens when a group

127
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,110
of aerospace engineers turn their talents

128
00:05:55,110 --> 00:05:57,300
to building precision rifles.

129
00:05:57,300 --> 00:05:58,204
Stay tuned.

130
00:05:58,204 --> 00:05:59,037
(screen whooshing)

131
00:05:59,037 --> 00:06:02,537
(upbeat percussive music)

132
00:07:05,353 --> 00:07:08,853
(upbeat percussive music)

133
00:07:11,383 --> 00:07:12,540
(screen whooshing)

134
00:07:12,540 --> 00:07:14,910
- [Announcer] Welcome back
to "Defense News Weekly."

135
00:07:14,910 --> 00:07:17,970
MCON's Range Day gives
a wide array of vendors

136
00:07:17,970 --> 00:07:21,240
an opportunity to connect
with the veteran community.

137
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,380
This year, the organization
Pause to Protect was on hand

138
00:07:25,380 --> 00:07:27,120
to bring awareness to the importance

139
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,370
of safe firearm storage.

140
00:07:29,370 --> 00:07:31,290
Service members often need to secure

141
00:07:31,290 --> 00:07:33,570
their personal firearms offsite,

142
00:07:33,570 --> 00:07:36,690
whether it be for a long deployment, PCS,

143
00:07:36,690 --> 00:07:38,760
or during a mental health struggle.

144
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,760
That's where Pause to Protect steps in.

145
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:42,683
Check it out.

146
00:07:42,683 --> 00:07:43,516
(screen whooshing)

147
00:07:43,516 --> 00:07:45,000
- Hey, I'm Matt Wetenkamp
(gun popping)

148
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,580
here at MCON 2025 Range Day,

149
00:07:47,580 --> 00:07:49,890
and I'm here representing
Pause to Protect.

150
00:07:49,890 --> 00:07:51,630
Pause to Protect is a program,

151
00:07:51,630 --> 00:07:53,220
it's funded by the Department of Defense

152
00:07:53,220 --> 00:07:54,720
Suicide Prevention Office,

153
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,220
and we work with firearm businesses

154
00:07:56,220 --> 00:07:58,800
around military installations
around the country.

155
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,810
We provide them with funding
and logistical support

156
00:08:00,810 --> 00:08:04,140
so that they can provide secure
out-of-home storage options

157
00:08:04,140 --> 00:08:06,390
for active-duty military and
their families in the area.

158
00:08:06,390 --> 00:08:08,040
They can use it for kind of whatever works

159
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:09,930
for their business in their community,

160
00:08:09,930 --> 00:08:11,160
anything from using
(gun popping)

161
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,790
the funding to install locker
systems within their facility

162
00:08:14,790 --> 00:08:17,190
so people can come in and
bring their firearms in,

163
00:08:17,190 --> 00:08:19,530
and store them in the lockers there.

164
00:08:19,530 --> 00:08:21,570
Some places, we'll use
it to buy lock boxes

165
00:08:21,570 --> 00:08:22,500
and safes in bulk,
(gun popping)

166
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:25,770
and hand those out for free
to anybody who needs them.

167
00:08:25,770 --> 00:08:27,180
They can use it to cover their costs,

168
00:08:27,180 --> 00:08:30,690
to provide free gunsmithing
services with a 30-day hold,

169
00:08:30,690 --> 00:08:31,560
to cover their costs
(gun popping)

170
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,770
for taking the firearms onto their books

171
00:08:34,770 --> 00:08:36,750
and storing 'em with their inventory.

172
00:08:36,750 --> 00:08:38,550
So kind of whatever works
for the different businesses,

173
00:08:38,550 --> 00:08:41,520
we'll support them with
whatever they want to do.

174
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,932
So having access to the most lethal means

175
00:08:43,932 --> 00:08:47,820
in that moment of crisis has a lot to do

176
00:08:47,820 --> 00:08:49,770
with what we see with the suicide number.

177
00:08:49,770 --> 00:08:51,660
So typically, what we see with suicide,

178
00:08:51,660 --> 00:08:53,094
it's a very impulsive act.

179
00:08:53,094 --> 00:08:55,740
It's an impulsive act
in a moment of crisis,

180
00:08:55,740 --> 00:08:57,630
you know, the worst day of someone's life,

181
00:08:57,630 --> 00:08:59,130
and having access to that tool

182
00:08:59,130 --> 00:09:00,600
that is lethal
(gun popping)

183
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,149
90-plus percent of the time
rather than anything else

184
00:09:04,149 --> 00:09:05,970
has a lot to do with
those suicide numbers.

185
00:09:05,970 --> 00:09:08,190
So in that moment of crisis,

186
00:09:08,190 --> 00:09:09,720
if you have a place that
you can take your gun,

187
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,670
to get it out of the home temporarily,

188
00:09:11,670 --> 00:09:12,990
and it could be for any reason.

189
00:09:12,990 --> 00:09:15,420
Obviously, it's funded by the
Suicide Prevention Office,

190
00:09:15,420 --> 00:09:17,250
so suicide prevention is our focus,

191
00:09:17,250 --> 00:09:18,180
but it could be for anything.

192
00:09:18,180 --> 00:09:20,520
It could be someone's going
on deployment, they're moving,

193
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,770
they've got contractors and construction

194
00:09:22,770 --> 00:09:23,610
going on at their home.

195
00:09:23,610 --> 00:09:25,410
So if anybody ever needs to
get guns out of the house

196
00:09:25,410 --> 00:09:27,570
temporarily for any reason,

197
00:09:27,570 --> 00:09:29,910
they can take them to
one of these businesses

198
00:09:29,910 --> 00:09:32,400
and store their guns there.

199
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:33,240
So what we're doing today,
(guns popping)

200
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,450
we've got a stop box mounted
to the table out there,

201
00:09:36,450 --> 00:09:37,530
and we're timing folks,

202
00:09:37,530 --> 00:09:38,910
and we'll see how long it takes them

203
00:09:38,910 --> 00:09:40,260
to get the box open,
(guns popping)

204
00:09:40,260 --> 00:09:43,320
get the magazine inserted,
and get rounds on target.

205
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,670
So two rounds
(gun popping)

206
00:09:44,670 --> 00:09:46,860
on two separate targets,
so a total of four rounds.

207
00:09:46,860 --> 00:09:48,630
How long does it take
you to get the box open,

208
00:09:48,630 --> 00:09:51,450
magazine inserted, and
four rounds on target?

209
00:09:51,450 --> 00:09:53,505
And the fastest time today
is gonna win a free gun.

210
00:09:53,505 --> 00:09:55,740
(gun popping)

211
00:09:55,740 --> 00:09:58,710
The most common points of
pushback that I will get

212
00:09:58,710 --> 00:10:01,110
when talking about why you
should keep your guns locked up

213
00:10:01,110 --> 00:10:03,210
and secured at all times
is if it's, you know,

214
00:10:03,210 --> 00:10:05,070
they'll say, you know, "If
it's locked up in a safe

215
00:10:05,070 --> 00:10:06,060
or in a locked box,

216
00:10:06,060 --> 00:10:09,030
then I don't have immediate
access to it in an emergency.

217
00:10:09,030 --> 00:10:11,190
There's a home break in, I
need the access to that gun,

218
00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:12,810
and I want access to it immediately."

219
00:10:12,810 --> 00:10:14,670
And so what we're trying
to demonstrate here today

220
00:10:14,670 --> 00:10:16,080
is that you can access it quickly.

221
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,150
There's a lot of great options
out there on the market,

222
00:10:18,150 --> 00:10:20,100
from biometric stuff to something

223
00:10:20,100 --> 00:10:20,933
like we're using today,
(gun popping)

224
00:10:20,933 --> 00:10:23,760
a stop box that uses no
electronics whatsoever.

225
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,560
You can still access it extremely quickly.

226
00:10:25,560 --> 00:10:26,867
Some of the times we're seeing today,

227
00:10:26,867 --> 00:10:28,710
(gun popping)
under five seconds

228
00:10:28,710 --> 00:10:30,540
to open the box, magazine inserted,

229
00:10:30,540 --> 00:10:32,220
and get four rounds down range.

230
00:10:32,220 --> 00:10:33,990
If you have any questions

235
00:10:42,146 --> 00:10:43,110

236
00:10:43,110 --> 00:10:45,210
- [Announcer] Up next,
Stellar Arms started out

237
00:10:45,210 --> 00:10:47,160
as a group of aerospace engineers

238
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,440
with a passion for firearms.

239
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,350
See what happens when you
bring that level of expertise

240
00:10:52,350 --> 00:10:55,138
to milling precision AR rifles.

241
00:10:55,138 --> 00:10:55,971
(screen whooshing)

242
00:10:55,971 --> 00:10:56,804
- How you guys doing?

243
00:10:56,804 --> 00:10:58,140
Scott Melton with Stellar Arms.

244
00:10:58,140 --> 00:11:01,565
We're out here at MCON 2025's Range Day.

245
00:11:01,565 --> 00:11:02,760
We're out here showcasing our products.

246
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:03,600
Right here with me today,

247
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:08,100
I'm holding our Specialist,
which is a 13.9 AR.

248
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:09,960
We're a manufacturer, small manufacturer,

249
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,790
out of Lincoln, Nebraska.

250
00:11:11,790 --> 00:11:14,850
Our roots and our start of our company

251
00:11:14,850 --> 00:11:15,990
was born in aerospace,

252
00:11:15,990 --> 00:11:18,510
building parts for SpaceX,
(gun popping)

253
00:11:18,510 --> 00:11:19,343
NASA,

254
00:11:19,343 --> 00:11:21,960
we do contracts for, like,
Department of Nuclear Energy,

255
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,279
stuff like that.

256
00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:24,360
(gun popping)
doing a lot of one-off,

257
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,410
really special parts.

258
00:11:25,410 --> 00:11:27,690
And so we have a passion for firearms,

259
00:11:27,690 --> 00:11:28,950
so about 15 years ago,
(gun popping)

260
00:11:28,950 --> 00:11:31,290
we started doing some custom ones,

261
00:11:31,290 --> 00:11:33,150
and over those 15 years, we've evolved,

262
00:11:33,150 --> 00:11:34,350
and now, we've gotten to a point

263
00:11:34,350 --> 00:11:36,360
where we're actually launching some lines

264
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,640
and a lot of special releases.

265
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,050
You know, one of the things about us

266
00:11:40,050 --> 00:11:42,330
is coming out of that
aerospace roots, you know,

267
00:11:42,330 --> 00:11:44,160
we build it like, you know,
how an airplane built,

268
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,740
so we've gotten really tight tolerances.

269
00:11:46,740 --> 00:11:49,440
Every single rifle is built by one armer.

270
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,320
That means it gets all the
parts or the machining,

271
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,580
you know, everything
gets anodized, coated,

272
00:11:53,580 --> 00:11:54,990
whatever that may be,

273
00:11:54,990 --> 00:11:57,030
and one armer puts this together,

274
00:11:57,030 --> 00:11:58,740
puts it together from start to finish,

275
00:11:58,740 --> 00:12:00,630
checks all the systems, function checks,

276
00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:01,830
and does test firing on it.

277
00:12:01,830 --> 00:12:05,760
So a lot of passion and pride
goes into building these,

278
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:06,870
so we're excited to be out here

279
00:12:06,870 --> 00:12:09,840
and sharing this with the MCON family.

280
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,280
With the tight tolerances
that we're using,

281
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,710
our same kind of aerospace
standards, you know,

282
00:12:13,710 --> 00:12:14,970
the mate between the upper
(gun popping)

283
00:12:14,970 --> 00:12:17,280
and lower is really important for accuracy

284
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,170
and the functionality of the weapon.

285
00:12:19,170 --> 00:12:20,850
So with all that made really tight,

286
00:12:20,850 --> 00:12:21,683
it makes sure that it's

287
00:12:21,683 --> 00:12:22,516
a reliable weapon,
(gun popping)

288
00:12:22,516 --> 00:12:24,240
and and stays on target.

289
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,230
So with all of our rifles,
we guarantee MOA accuracy,

290
00:12:28,230 --> 00:12:31,775
which is a high-precision
accuracy for an AR platform.

291
00:12:31,775 --> 00:12:32,700
(group chattering faintly)
We actually have

292
00:12:32,700 --> 00:12:35,220
this very same gun, this 13.9,

293
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:38,220
have a guy that's shooting
it out to 1,200 meters

294
00:12:38,220 --> 00:12:39,360
and staying on target.

295
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,340
A couple of the other
features we have with ours

296
00:12:41,340 --> 00:12:43,530
that are unique and proprietary to us

297
00:12:43,530 --> 00:12:44,460
is our charging handle,

298
00:12:44,460 --> 00:12:46,020
and this is called our
throttle charging handle,

299
00:12:46,020 --> 00:12:47,940
so it has really oversized

300
00:12:47,940 --> 00:12:48,773
levers on it,
(levers clicking)

301
00:12:48,773 --> 00:12:49,606
so it's really easy to grab,

302
00:12:49,606 --> 00:12:50,460
especially if you have gloves on,

303
00:12:50,460 --> 00:12:52,320
like you see here with the LPVO,

304
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,170
optics sometimes get in the way
of general charging handles.

305
00:12:55,170 --> 00:12:57,750
And then this one actually has in here

306
00:12:57,750 --> 00:12:59,700
is a gas management system.

307
00:12:59,700 --> 00:13:00,930
So when shooting suppressed,

308
00:13:00,930 --> 00:13:02,640
you build a lot of back pressure up,

309
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,160
that gas can get blown back in your face.

310
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,810
So we have some porting
within the charging handle

311
00:13:06,810 --> 00:13:09,840
that takes that gas and blows
it out past the chamber here,

312
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,610
so diverting all of that gas forward

313
00:13:11,610 --> 00:13:12,443
and away from the shooter,

314
00:13:12,443 --> 00:13:14,580
giving a much better shooting experience.

315
00:13:14,580 --> 00:13:18,210
This particular one here
is chambered in 5.56,

316
00:13:18,210 --> 00:13:22,920
but we do make the same in 6mm ARC.

317
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,140
We have .300 Blackout models,

318
00:13:25,140 --> 00:13:28,590
and, like, an eight-inch
short, great for home defense.

319
00:13:28,590 --> 00:13:31,530
Then we also have the .22 ARC and a couple

320
00:13:31,530 --> 00:13:33,270
different calibers.
(gun popping)

321
00:13:33,270 --> 00:13:36,720
We also have, beyond what
I'm holding here today,

322
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,460
the Specialist,

323
00:13:38,460 --> 00:13:40,200
we have our technician,
which is a 16-inch,

324
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:41,430
a little bit longer,

325
00:13:41,430 --> 00:13:44,820
and then we also offer a 11.5,"

326
00:13:44,820 --> 00:13:45,906
same style grip as this,

327
00:13:45,906 --> 00:13:47,280
(gun popping)

328
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,640
with a pistol brace on it,
so it is legally a pistol.

329
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,770
One of the other features
we have on our Specialist

330
00:13:52,770 --> 00:13:53,760
is the ambi bolt release.

331
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,460
So we have our ambi controls
for our safety here,

332
00:13:56,460 --> 00:13:57,690
and they are 45 degrees,

333
00:13:57,690 --> 00:13:58,950
so as you can see, real quick,
(switch clicking)

334
00:13:58,950 --> 00:14:01,560
so you don't have that full
90 degrees all the way over,

335
00:14:01,560 --> 00:14:02,820
so it is an ambi.

336
00:14:02,820 --> 00:14:04,410
We also have our ambi bolt release.

337
00:14:04,410 --> 00:14:06,900
So for us right-handed guys,
as you go to load a mag

338
00:14:06,900 --> 00:14:08,820
versus having to put your
thumb up here and hand up here,

339
00:14:08,820 --> 00:14:10,230
so the mag goes in,
(parts clicking)

340
00:14:10,230 --> 00:14:12,046
and we simply can release the bolt there.

341
00:14:12,046 --> 00:14:13,590
(gun popping)
So a lot quicker reloads,

342
00:14:13,590 --> 00:14:14,910
keeping it on target,

343
00:14:14,910 --> 00:14:16,988
less focused on other parts of the weapon.

344
00:14:16,988 --> 00:14:18,420
(upbeat music)

345
00:14:18,420 --> 00:14:20,340
Like I was saying, you
know, we put a lot of pride

346
00:14:20,340 --> 00:14:22,500
and passion in what we build,
(gun popping)

347
00:14:22,500 --> 00:14:23,580
and we back that up with a warranty.

348
00:14:23,580 --> 00:14:25,710
So we have a limited lifetime warranty,

349
00:14:25,710 --> 00:14:27,870
so anything goes on with this rifle,

350
00:14:27,870 --> 00:14:30,060
you get a hold of us, send
it back, we will fix it.

351
00:14:30,060 --> 00:14:31,590
You wear a barrel out, we're gonna fix it.

352
00:14:31,590 --> 00:14:33,540
So we put a lot of pride in what we do,

353
00:14:33,540 --> 00:14:35,549
and we back what we say in that, so.

354
00:14:35,549 --> 00:14:36,480
(screen whooshing)

355
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,730
- [Announcer] Archon
Firearms is a fairly new name

356
00:14:38,730 --> 00:14:39,870
in the industry.

357
00:14:39,870 --> 00:14:43,399
At MCON, they showcase
the new modular handgun.

358
00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:44,232
(screen whooshing)
(bright music)

359
00:14:44,232 --> 00:14:47,430
(gun popping)

360
00:14:47,430 --> 00:14:49,380
- Hi, I am Kyle Yoshimura,

361
00:14:49,380 --> 00:14:54,380
head armer over at Archon
Firearms, over here at MCON 2025,

362
00:14:54,540 --> 00:14:57,930
showcasing the Archon Type B Gen 2 Pistol.

363
00:14:57,930 --> 00:14:59,310
Archon firearms is located
(gun popping)

364
00:14:59,310 --> 00:15:01,740
here in Las Vegas, Nevada.

365
00:15:01,740 --> 00:15:03,660
The new features with
the Gen 2 are gonna be

366
00:15:03,660 --> 00:15:05,610
the modular grip system,

367
00:15:05,610 --> 00:15:08,343
and it also is optic cut ready,

368
00:15:09,217 --> 00:15:13,200
RMS, RMR, and ACRO-ready slides.

369
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,110
The gun features our patented
locking block system,

370
00:15:16,110 --> 00:15:17,460
the AF-Speedlock.

371
00:15:17,460 --> 00:15:18,960
This allows the barrel
(guns popping)

372
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,510
to sit as low as possible in the gun.

373
00:15:21,510 --> 00:15:25,590
Actually, the the lowest
bore axis in the industry

374
00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:27,990
as far as striker-fired handguns go.

375
00:15:27,990 --> 00:15:31,650
And I'm happy to get the
release of the Gen 2 here

376
00:15:31,650 --> 00:15:34,200
to you guys for the civilian market,

377
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,810
and also aimed at, you know,

378
00:15:36,810 --> 00:15:38,582
law enforcement military as well.

379
00:15:38,582 --> 00:15:41,830
(guns popping)

380
00:15:41,830 --> 00:15:45,237
So this is the Archon
Type B Gen 2 here today.

381
00:15:46,290 --> 00:15:48,240
They're all optic-ready,
(guns popping faintly)

382
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:53,240
And this is also showcasing
our modular grip assembly here.

383
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,380
As you can see, we've
got three different sizes

384
00:15:55,380 --> 00:15:56,430
we can go between here.

385
00:15:56,430 --> 00:15:58,920
It's all user serviceable.

386
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,300
Just push out a couple pins,

387
00:16:00,300 --> 00:16:01,500
and you can change it to the size

388
00:16:01,500 --> 00:16:02,910
or texture that you would like.

389
00:16:02,910 --> 00:16:06,210
So instead of producing
three different grip sizes,

390
00:16:06,210 --> 00:16:07,860
the idea was you can have all three

391
00:16:07,860 --> 00:16:09,540
in one gun, essentially.
(guns popping faintly)

392
00:16:09,540 --> 00:16:12,513
So this is the gun and the
full-size configuration here.

393
00:16:12,513 --> 00:16:15,780
By adding or removing these sections here,

394
00:16:15,780 --> 00:16:19,380
you can go between the
subcompact size here,

395
00:16:19,380 --> 00:16:21,540
the compact, and the full size.

396
00:16:21,540 --> 00:16:23,730
The grip is user serviceable

397
00:16:23,730 --> 00:16:25,440
by adding or removing
(gun popping)

398
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:26,430
these sections here,

399
00:16:26,430 --> 00:16:29,220
and just pushing out a roll pin,

400
00:16:29,220 --> 00:16:30,480
you can configure it yourself.

401
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,250
The pistol comes with all
(gun popping)

402
00:16:32,250 --> 00:16:33,750
the pieces necessary to go between

403
00:16:33,750 --> 00:16:35,310
these three different grip sizes

404
00:16:35,310 --> 00:16:38,700
and one of each size magazine,

405
00:16:38,700 --> 00:16:42,064
so the subcompact, compact,
and full-size magazine.

406
00:16:42,064 --> 00:16:43,777
(gun popping)

407
00:16:43,777 --> 00:16:44,610

412

00:18:03,604 --> 00:18:04,770
(screen whooshing)

414
00:18:04,770 --> 00:18:05,640
- [Announcer] Welcome back.

415
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,380
On this episode of "Money Minute,"

416
00:18:07,380 --> 00:18:10,020
Jeanette Mack from Navy
Federal Credit Union is back

417
00:18:10,020 --> 00:18:12,180
with her latest tips
on how you can prepare

418
00:18:12,180 --> 00:18:14,071
for a bright financial future.

419
00:18:14,071 --> 00:18:14,904
(screen whooshing)

420
00:18:14,904 --> 00:18:17,310
- As the year winds down,
it's the perfect time

421
00:18:17,310 --> 00:18:20,490
to give your business
finances a fresh look, why?

422
00:18:20,490 --> 00:18:23,400
Because a little year-end prep
can make tax season smoother

423
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,980
and set you up for a
winning start next year.

424
00:18:25,980 --> 00:18:28,320
First, get those expense records in order.

425
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,320
Whether you use a filing
system or accounting software,

426
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,300
organizing now saves you stress later,

427
00:18:33,300 --> 00:18:35,040
especially at tax time,

428
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,710
and helps you spot where
your money's really going.

429
00:18:37,710 --> 00:18:40,260
Next, review your profit
and loss statements.

430
00:18:40,260 --> 00:18:42,420
Compare what you earn to what you spent.

431
00:18:42,420 --> 00:18:44,850
Is there room for a
last-minute performance boost?

432
00:18:44,850 --> 00:18:47,310
Maybe you can pay off a
bill or invest in supplies

433
00:18:47,310 --> 00:18:48,720
before the year closes?

434
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,970
If you sell products, take inventory.

435
00:18:50,970 --> 00:18:53,670
Knowing what's on your shelves
and what assets you own

436
00:18:53,670 --> 00:18:56,010
helps you plan smarter
for the months ahead.

437
00:18:56,010 --> 00:18:57,330
Don't forget your liabilities.

438
00:18:57,330 --> 00:19:00,330
Think accounts payable,
credit cards, and loans.

439
00:19:00,330 --> 00:19:02,490
Managing debt keeps your business strong

440
00:19:02,490 --> 00:19:03,780
and ready for growth.

441
00:19:03,780 --> 00:19:07,170
Finally, use what you've learned
to review your tax strategy

442
00:19:07,170 --> 00:19:08,490
and set new goals.

443
00:19:08,490 --> 00:19:11,820
The efforts you put in now
can mean fewer surprises later

444
00:19:11,820 --> 00:19:14,043
and a stronger start to the new year.

445
00:19:14,043 --> 00:19:14,876

- [Announcer] Welcome back.

467
00:21:04,710 --> 00:21:07,080
On this week's edition
of "Defense Dollars,"

468
00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,450
we check out a new report
examining the revenue

469
00:21:09,450 --> 00:21:11,640
of the world's biggest defense companies,

470
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,370
and learn how global
conflict has affected them.

471
00:21:14,370 --> 00:21:15,313
Check it out.

472
00:21:15,313 --> 00:21:16,146
(screen whooshing)

473
00:21:16,146 --> 00:21:17,400
- Welcome to "Defense dollars,"

474
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,250
a weekly update on the
defense and aerospace markets

475
00:21:20,250 --> 00:21:21,240
around the world,

476
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,190
and what's making the numbers move.

477
00:21:23,190 --> 00:21:24,660
Let's dive in.

478
00:21:24,660 --> 00:21:26,100
First up, we know it's 2025,

479
00:21:26,100 --> 00:21:28,500
but how did defense
companies fare last year,

480
00:21:28,500 --> 00:21:30,690
and what can it tell us about the future?

481
00:21:30,690 --> 00:21:32,850
A new report from the
Stockholm International

482
00:21:32,850 --> 00:21:35,850
Peace Research Institute
found that conflict

483
00:21:35,850 --> 00:21:37,320
in Ukraine and Gaza,

484
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,360
and many countries' decision to increase

485
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:42,757
their defense spending pushed
up profits in this sector.

486
00:21:42,757 --> 00:21:44,970
"The world's largest
arms-producing country

487
00:21:44,970 --> 00:21:49,970
saw a 5.9% increase in revenue
in 2024," the institute said,

488
00:21:50,460 --> 00:21:53,010
that according to a report from the AP.

489
00:21:53,010 --> 00:21:54,360
Much of that revenue was earned

490
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:57,060
by companies based in the US and Europe,

491
00:21:57,060 --> 00:21:59,490
though companies around
the globe saw rises.

492
00:21:59,490 --> 00:22:01,680
A notable exception was China,

493
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,580
where arms industry issues
led to a slight decrease.

494
00:22:05,580 --> 00:22:07,800
In all, US and European countries

495
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,070
earned close to $500 billion in revenue,

496
00:22:11,070 --> 00:22:14,550
fueled by the perceived threat
to NATO nations by Russia.

497
00:22:14,550 --> 00:22:16,350
Speaking of Russia, the two companies

498
00:22:16,350 --> 00:22:17,370
in the institute's list
(person shouting)

499
00:22:17,370 --> 00:22:20,160
also saw increases driven by the war

500
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,610
that despite international
sanctions on Russian firms.

501
00:22:23,610 --> 00:22:25,710
Arms revenue also grew in the Middle East,

502
00:22:25,710 --> 00:22:27,720
led by Israeli companies,

503
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,247
as that country fought a war in Gaza.

504
00:22:30,247 --> 00:22:33,780
"In total, the 100 largest
arms-producing company revenues

505
00:22:33,780 --> 00:22:38,780
totaled $679 billion in 2024,"
the SIPRI's report says.

506
00:22:41,370 --> 00:22:42,480
- How'd you like it?
(screen whooshing)

507
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,100
- So that was 2024,

508
00:22:44,100 --> 00:22:47,010
but how are major defense
companies faring recently?

509
00:22:47,010 --> 00:22:49,020
While a lot of the heavy
hitters, your Boeing,

510
00:22:49,020 --> 00:22:51,690
RTX, Lockheeds, and the like have all seen

511
00:22:51,690 --> 00:22:53,910
rising stock prices throughout the year,

512
00:22:53,910 --> 00:22:56,160
recent world events have taken a bite

513
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,330
out of profits.
(group chattering)

514
00:22:57,330 --> 00:22:58,200
The reason?

515
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,030
Talks brokered by the United States

516
00:23:00,030 --> 00:23:03,480
between Ukraine and Russia
point to a possible resolution,

517
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:07,410
pulling down possible future
arm sales from recent highs.

518
00:23:07,410 --> 00:23:11,280
- We have fully engaged in negotiations,

519
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:15,300
and we are only stepping up our efforts.

520
00:23:15,300 --> 00:23:17,520
Our team is now looking ahead

521
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:20,520
to next very important meetings.

522
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,913
Today, Ukraine is closer
to peace than ever before,

523
00:23:24,900 --> 00:23:28,488
and there is a real, real chance.

524
00:23:28,488 --> 00:23:31,405
(crowd applauding)

525
00:23:32,310 --> 00:23:35,520
- Earlier this week, many of
the US' top defense companies

526
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,130
saw their stock prices dip into the red,

527
00:23:38,130 --> 00:23:40,710
and where they go from
here is anyone's guess.

528
00:23:40,710 --> 00:23:42,960
In November, Defense
Secretary Pete Hegseth

529
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,300
said the Pentagon would radically reform

530
00:23:45,300 --> 00:23:47,130
its acquisition process,

531
00:23:47,130 --> 00:23:49,260
changing the fundamentals
of how it procures

532
00:23:49,260 --> 00:23:52,050
military systems going forward.

533
00:23:52,050 --> 00:23:54,990
- We must wage an all-out campaign

534
00:23:54,990 --> 00:23:56,700
to streamline the pentagon's process

535
00:23:56,700 --> 00:24:00,540
to unshackle our people
from unproductive work,

536
00:24:00,540 --> 00:24:04,200
and to shift our resources
from the bureaucracy

537
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,313
to the battlefield.

538
00:24:06,450 --> 00:24:08,070
- Over in the shipbuilding sector,

539
00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:09,420
things were a little more mixed

540
00:24:09,420 --> 00:24:11,850
for Italian company, Fincantieri.

541
00:24:11,850 --> 00:24:14,010
The military ship-maker holds the contract

542
00:24:14,010 --> 00:24:16,380
for four new ships in the US Navy's

543
00:24:16,380 --> 00:24:19,230
Constellation-class frigate program,

544
00:24:19,230 --> 00:24:21,570
but in late November,
the secretary of the Navy

545
00:24:21,570 --> 00:24:24,930
announced he was canceling
the new line of vessels.

546
00:24:24,930 --> 00:24:28,290
The US Navy had, at one
time, eyed buying as many

547
00:24:28,290 --> 00:24:30,270
as 20 of the new ships,

548
00:24:30,270 --> 00:24:33,390
and two that are already
half-built will be completed.

549
00:24:33,390 --> 00:24:36,450
In a statement, Fincantieri
said it expected new business

550
00:24:36,450 --> 00:24:40,410
to come its way from the Navy
to make up for the losses.

551
00:24:40,410 --> 00:24:43,230
- Today, I can announce the
first major public action

552
00:24:43,230 --> 00:24:44,790
in this reshaping,

553
00:24:44,790 --> 00:24:47,670
a strategic shift away from
the Constellation-class

554
00:24:47,670 --> 00:24:49,170
frigate program.

555
00:24:49,170 --> 00:24:50,910
The Navy and our industry partners

556
00:24:50,910 --> 00:24:52,920
have reached a comprehensive framework

557
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,380
that terminates, for
the Navy's convenience,

558
00:24:55,380 --> 00:24:57,420
the last four ships of the class,

559
00:24:57,420 --> 00:24:59,160
which have not begun construction.

560
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:00,840
- And how has the news impacted

561
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,060
Fincantieri's market status?

562
00:25:03,060 --> 00:25:05,130
Well, as of this week,
the company's stock price

563
00:25:05,130 --> 00:25:08,940
was still up more than 150% for the year,

564
00:25:08,940 --> 00:25:11,460
and has only lost about 60 cents per share

565
00:25:11,460 --> 00:25:13,890
since the November 25th announcement,

566
00:25:13,890 --> 00:25:18,127
dipping from $20 to just under $19.50.

567
00:25:18,127 --> 00:25:19,560
(screen whooshing)
Finally, quick alert

568
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,120
for those deep in military tech,

569
00:25:21,120 --> 00:25:23,550
and following the
Pentagon's emerging needs,

570
00:25:23,550 --> 00:25:26,520
the Marines are looking for
a new GPS landing system

571
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,550
meant for far-flung battlefields.

572
00:25:29,550 --> 00:25:31,740
According to the Naval
Air Systems Command,

573
00:25:31,740 --> 00:25:33,780
which kicked off the exploratory process

574
00:25:33,780 --> 00:25:35,310
for the system recently,

575
00:25:35,310 --> 00:25:37,170
the capability needs to be able to fit

576
00:25:37,170 --> 00:25:40,560
inside one of the Marines'
most used aircraft

577
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,800
and be rugged enough to
handle austere conditions.

578
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,130
That lines up with a system
made by Collins Aerospace,

579
00:25:47,130 --> 00:25:49,530
owned by RTX, formerly Raytheon,

580
00:25:49,530 --> 00:25:53,040
called the Expeditionary
Joint Precision Approach

581
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,290
Landing System, which is a mouthful,

582
00:25:55,290 --> 00:25:58,380
to describe a GPS system
designed to make aircraft landing

583
00:25:58,380 --> 00:26:00,240
simpler and safer,

584
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,280
one to watch if you're
looking at opportunities

585
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,350
in the defense sector.

586
00:26:04,350 --> 00:26:07,200
And that wraps up your "Defense
Dollars" for this week.
