SHORT HILLS, NJ--(Marketwired - Jul 6, 2015) - Umbra Applied Technologies Group (OTC: UATG) Chairman and CEO Alex Umbra announced today that due to greater than anticipated demand, UAT Arms, a division of Umbra Applied Technologies, has opened sales negotiations earlier than expected. Mr. Umbra released that "We have several governments engaged that have expressed interest in the UBR-16 and the PRP-30.

We anticipate beginning the delivery of these weapons platforms in September and have already begun preparations to deliver the first 1000 units."

With UAT Arms getting ready to release its new Umbra Battle Rifle, Mr. Umbra commented about the demand for the rifle, what it represented for the company's future, and how it would impact revenue, "The UBR-16 represents the new standard in battle field weapons platforms. Designed by operators, for operators, the UBR-16 will soon present itself as the standard in special operations weapons platforms." Umbra further expanded, "Currently, its estimated that there is a $489 million dollar market for civilian "sport rifles" in the United States alone. This industry has seen steady growth over the past 4 years. While the primary customer of the Umbra Battle Rifle will be the US Government and its allies, we feel expanding our reach into the civilian market will push revenues and create more shareholder value for UAT Group investors."
