PWS Announces Partnership with Rescue 22 Foundation Shooting Team

BOISE, Id. September 11, 2024  – Primary Weapons Systems is proud to announce its sponsorship of the Rescue 22 Foundation Shooting Team. PWS will be the team’s exclusive rifle sponsor, providing team members with PWS piston-driven rifles to shoot in competitions.

 

The Rescue 22 Foundation (R22) is committed to addressing the mental and physical health of Veterans with service-connected disabilities. The R22 team works to provide trained service dogs to those with medically complex cases and improve their quality of life.  Each service dog trained is given a new purpose and a chance to make a profound impact on a Veterans life. To promote this cause, the R22 Foundation developed a shooting team composed of Veterans, that compete across the U.S. alongside their service dogs in order to raise awareness for R22  foundation and show the positive impact service dogs have for Veterans.

“Our mission is to offer Veterans the care and support they need,” said R22 executive staff and team member, Jonathan Belton. “Our shooting team raises awareness around Veterans and service dogs, brings back that feeling of community and accountability and showcases the talent of some of our R22 family members. We’re excited to have PWS onboard to help us achieve these goals.”

“The PWS team is passionate about working with those who have proudly served our nation.” says PWS  President Ben Fleming. “Being able to support the R22 shooting team is an honor, and we greatly look forward to seeing them succeed both on and off the competition field .”
