SecureIt Tactical Inc. Launches Agents of Change

Posted on by Emily Bowe

Syracuse, NY (June 30, 2022) – SecureIt Tactical Inc., the global leader in military weapons storage and armory design, and the only company to build a lightweight, customizable gun storage system for the consumer market, is excited to announce the launch of its first television show this summer.  

Agents of Change will air on the Sportsman Channel and highlight the most innovative people, products, and companies in the firearm and outdoor industries.  

Hosted by SecureIt President and Chief Executive Officer Tom Kubiniec, Agents of Change will take viewers across the country to learn about the latest innovations in shooting and outdoor sports. 

The show stems from Kubiniec’s entrepreneurial mindset, as innovation has been the driving force throughout his career. He launched his first company in 1988 but pivoted his product line in 2001 to support the U.S. military as a Department of Defense contractor after identifying a need in the market. Kubiniec became the leading authority in firearm storage and armory design and today, his company is the largest weapons storage supplier with military contracts all over the world. After receiving a patent for his intelligent firearm storage technology, Kubiniec expanded into the consumer market, speaking directly to the pain points gun owners face. 

“Over the course of my career, I’ve experienced first-hand the positive impact innovation can have on people, companies, and industries overall,” said Kubiniec. “The firearm and outdoor industries are deeply rooted in tradition and very resistant to change, but there are so many innovators out there who are thinking differently and doing exciting work. Change is happening, and I’m looking forward to bringing to light the people, products, and companies that will take us into the future.” 

In addition to featuring two different companies, each episode will include an informative tactical tip from Gary Melton, former U.S. Army Special Forces Green Beret, Weapons Sergeant, Special Operations Instructor, and Sniper Team Leader with four combat tours. Melton is also the owner and Lead Instructor for Paramount Tactical Solutions. 

Agents of Change premiers on Thursday, June 30, 2022 at 8 p.m. ET on Sportsman Channel, with new episodes airing weekly. To learn more, visit www.secureitagents.com.

SecureIt honors John Bartolo: A message from President Tom Kubiniec

Posted on by Tom Kubiniec

This weekend, we learned the devastating news that John Bartolo passed away. This is a huge loss for our community, and I am still sitting here in shock trying to wrap my head around it all.  

I had the good fortune of meeting John this past September when I was a guest on his show, and we hit it off immediately. We shared a passion for firearms defense, and when I think about people who have been steadfast in pioneering the need for change in our industry, John is at the top of the list.  

He spoke with an intensity that was unrivaled and pulled no punches. To anyone who knew him or followed his extremely popular podcast, he was not only a great guy but genuine, innovative, and above all else, honest. 

I believed wholeheartedly in the work John was doing for our industry and experienced this first-hand as a sponsor of his show. But it was so much more than that. I’m grateful to call John more than a colleague, but a dear friend.  

My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time. Travel well my brother, you will be missed.

SYRACUSE, NY. (November 22, 2021) – Approaching what experts are saying will be a strong 2021 holiday season with e-Commerce sales predicted to trend up 10-15%, and coming off a record year for the firearms business with 23M guns sold last year, SecureIt Tactical Inc and its consumer-facing brand SecureIt Gun Storage is charging forward with a new and innovative way to safely store firearms. SecureIt started 20 years ago designing armories for the U.S. military. In 2018 SecureIt was listed in Inc. Magazine’s fastest-growing companies.
