SPARTAN PRECISION EQUIPMENT JOINS AS BUSINESS PARTNER

Spartan Precision Equipment has joined forces with the Sportsmen ’ s Alliance to protect hunting nationwide . The United Kingdom-based maker of fine hunting accessories , including bipods and tripods using the patented Spartan Magnetic Attachment System , joined our cavalcade of corporate allies when they signed on to the Business Partner program at the Chairman ’ s Club level .
“ Those of us at Spartan are passionate about not only educating and inspiring the next generation of outdoorsmen and women , but also protecting it for them for many years to come ,” said Hannah Gibson , general manager at Spartan Precision . “ Sportsmen ’ s Alliance does a truly outstanding job at doing just that , and we are extremely proud to be able to support them .”
As a hunter , Rob Gearing , managing director and owner of Spartan , became frustrated by the lack of innovation in terms of versatility and functionality of his equipment , and so he decided to do something about it . He went to work designing equipment he wanted and could use on his mountaineering and hunting escapades . Using carbon fiber and aerospace aluminum , he designed versatile , strong , lightweight interchangeable bipods and the Sentinel system tripod , which works as a mono- , bi- or tripod , as well as trekking poles . The interchangeable system uses a magnetic attachment to give hunters the flexibility to use the platforms with a simple attachment on each of their rifles .
“ Spartan Precision Equipment sincerely wants to support our mission ,” said Dowler . “ Spartan reached
out to us , asked what we do and then they asked how they can help . They ’ re providing quality and reliable products for the new shooters we work with , and they made a cash investment in us during the most challenging year nonprofits have faced . I ’ m proud to welcome them to the Alliance family .”
