iRayUSA, a Texas-based designer, manufacturer, and distributor of thermal night-vision devices, has announced the release of a new thermal rifle scope line: the InfiRay Outdoor RICO G-LRF. The RICO G-LRF is the first addition to InfiRay Outdoor’s family of Rugged Infrared Compact Optics (RICO) to include an integrated laser rangefinder. The RICO G-LRF Series is available in two models; the GL35R - 384-288-35mm and the GH50R - 640-480-50mm.

“The original RICO MK1 has been extremely popular among hunters who wanted to also include our secondary LRF module” stated Angelo Brewer, director of operations, iRayUSA. “Building a class 3R LRF module into the RICO G-LRF series has resulted in a more compact and easier to use design” continued Brewer.

The RICO G-LRF maintains many familiar RICO characteristics including a 4-button layout, compatibility with the AD-RQD quick release mount, similar software style and menu functions, high-speed germanium objective optics, and an HD OLED display. In addition, the G-LRF brings never-before-seen features to market for InfiRay Outdoor including a new high-density 26650 battery configuration, and InfiRay Outdoor’s newly integrated high-performance 905nm LRF micro-module.

The GL35R 35mm has an MSRP of $3799 and will be available through authorized iRayUSA dealers in late September, 2022. The GH50R 50mm has an MSRP of $5499, and will be available through authorized iRayUSA dealers in the fourth quarter of 2022. As with all iRayUSA products, the RICO G-LRF Series comes with a 5-year warranty, with a 1-week turnaround process. A full list of specifications and an authorized dealer locator can be found on the iRayUSA website, irayusa.com.

Michigan Mayor Looks Down on Guns and Dogs

“If you’ve got a gun, you should be ashamed of yourself,” said Grand Rapids Mayor David LaGrand. NRA-ILA also noted that in his response to a police K-9 chasing down a suspect, LaGrand said: “It is time that we ask, ‘What are dogs good for?’ Like, if you need a dog to find someone in the woods, get a hound dog. If you need to chase somebody in a backyard, why couldn’t you do that with a drone? If my dog did what I saw in that video, I’d put my dog down.”

Coyote Tactics: Stay Flexible

The successful hunters I know do not get hung up on one tactic. They constantly float between strategies in an ever-changing hunting environment. Quite simply, they’re flexible. I take that improvising nature to heart even for coyotes, particularly when they shun my calls for whatever reason. When that occurs, I continue the hunt, but modify my strategy to fit the scenario.
