The Fee is Gone, The Process remains

$200 Federal Tax Stamp Fee Eliminated: What This Means for You

As of January 1, 2026, the federal tax stamp fee for suppressors and short-barreled rifles (SBRs) has been reduced from $200 to $0. While the financial barrier ($200) has been removed, the legal process (NFA registration) remains in effect.

What Changed: You no longer pay the ATF $200 to register an NFA item.
What Stayed the Same: You must still file an ATF Form 1 (to make/configure an SBR) or Form 4 (to buy a suppressor/factory SBR), submit fingerprints/photos, undergo the background check, and wait for approval.

NEBO Launches the 1K EDC Pocket Light: Power and Portability Redefined

NEBO Launches the 1K EDC Pocket Light: Power and Portability Redefined

Fort Worth, Texas (July 1, 2026) – In today’s world, compact is king. The smaller an item is, the more useful it can be in everyday practice. This principle is particularly true for lighting sources, as what is constantly sought is a light that delivers maximum illumination in the smallest possible package. Such lights can serve multiple purposes on the job site, from crawlspaces to situations that require both hands, as well as in the outdoors, where a large, clunky traditional light may hinder running, walking, or hiking in low light. What is needed is a light that is small, easy to carry, and simple to use hands-free.

This is where NEBO steps in with their new 1K EDC Pocket Light, the compact and powerful pocket and cap light. The NEBO 1K EDC Pocket Light is the ultimate compact LED flashlight for everyday carry, delivering 1000 lumens of cool, crisp light in a sleek, pocket-sized design.

Featuring a water-resistant, durable metal design, the 1K EDC Pocket Light is USB-C rechargeable and includes a magnetic base for hands-free lighting. The steel deep-carry pocket clip also serves as a cap clip, allowing it to be attached to the bill of a cap to function as a hands-free light on the go. This makes the 1K EDC Pocket Light an invaluable tool for individuals working in tight spaces, under houses, or outdoors as the sun sets.

The 1K EDC Pocket Light offers five light modes, ranging from a 1,000-lumen turbo mode to a 10-lumen low mode, along with a defensive strobe. It features up to 10 hours of runtime, Smart Power Control, and is impact-resistant and IPX4 water-resistant. Additionally, it includes a keyring, making it easy for users to keep track of it.

Built for outdoor adventures, emergencies, or everyday preparedness, the 1K EDC Pocket Light combines power, durability, and convenience in an impressively small package.

Striking Distance Just Got Closer

NEW FOR 2026

Striking Distance Just Got Closer

ScentLok® drops classic woods realism onto an abstract foundation across half its new lineup with the launch of Realtree® XT-3™ apparel

MUSKEGON, Mich. (July 1, 2026) – More than three decades ago, Bill Jordan revolutionized the hunting industry by sketching the first true-to-life bark patterns in his backyard and forever changed how hunters interact with the wild. Today, that legacy of relentless innovation takes its next monumental leap forward.

In a powerhouse move, ScentLok is going all-in on Realtree’s® wild new XT-3™ pattern, dropping it onto more than half of their entire new product introductions. This massive joint effort unites the undisputed pioneer of visual deception with the gold standard of olfactory stealth and apparel design. The new look immediately takes over ScentLok’s most elite technical gear, headlined by the Savanna Fuse, Ridge, and BE:1 collections.

Visual Chaos

Modern camouflage design continues to advance, hitting a new peak of visual deception with Realtree XT-3. The Realtree team deployed an abstract foundation built on geometric lines, layered organic textures, and strategically placed color breaks. It actively shatters the human outline through sharp angles and fractured shapes that perfectly mimic the visual chaos found in diverse environments.

By pairing this highly adaptable, multi-location pattern with ScentLok’s heavy-hitting fabrics, the collaboration gives faithful bow and gun hunters an unmatched tactical advantage that adapts to changing light, distance, and habitat conditions.

The Multi-Terrain Hunter

“Putting a Realtree pattern on more than half of our new lineup isn’t a small decision,” said Steve Allie, ScentLok Marketing Director. “Bill Jordan and his team have spent decades figuring out how to make hunters vanish. By combining their new XT-3 design with our technical fabrics, we’re giving guys a system that covers them visually and stops their scent from giving them away. It’s just a damn good combination.”

The pattern is engineered specifically for hunters who demand both the depth of traditional timber and the raw performance of modern macro-disruption. By breaking up the human outline across varying distances, heights, and light conditions, it thrives whether pinned against a mature treestand bark matrix or buried deep in a dense ground blind.

Full-Season Fleet Ready

The Realtree XT-3 pattern spans everything from early-season lightweight apparel to late-season outerwear and essential accessories. The complete suite of gear—including the flagship Savanna Fuse™ and Ridge™ series—is available now. To explore the entire collection and secure your gear, visit the ScentLok Realtree XT-3 Collection.

NSSF Statement on SCOTUS Decision of Gun-Related Petitions

NSSF

June 30, 2026

NSSF Statement on SCOTUS Decision of Gun-Related Petitions

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is elated over the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision today to hear petitions challenging state restrictions on the possession of Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs). Petitions challenging the constitutionality of these state-based restrictions have endured a tortuous legal path to the nation’s highest court.

The challenges, Viramontes v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins, will be heard by the Supreme Court in the next session. These petitions were relisted several times before the Supreme Court ultimately decided to grant cert. Viramontes and Grant challenge Cook County, Illinois and Connecticut’s respective bans on MSR possession, the most-commonly sold centerfire rifle in America, of which there are over 32 million in circulation. NSSF believes that the Heller and Bruen precedents clearly hold that firearms in common use are protected by the Second Amendment.

NSSF contends that review of these challenges by the Supreme Court is long overdue. NSSF was frustrated with the Court’s decision in June 2025 to deny cert in Snope v. Brown and the NSSF-funded Ocean State Tactical v. Rhode Island petitions challenging on Second Amendment grounds Maryland’s MSR Ban and Rhode Island’s ban on standard sized magazines, respectively. NSSF respectfully disagreed with Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s statement then that the Court should wait a “Term or two” before taking action to stop the lower courts from misapplying the Court’s holdings in Heller and Bruen, effectively denying the Second Amendment rights of millions of law-abiding Americans living in the states that have enacted laws banning MSRs and standard capacity magazines.

Rhode Island’s ban on the sale of MSRs will take effect July 1, 2026, and Virginia has since enacted into law a similar ban, which is currently being challenged in courts, including one funded by NSSF.

NSSF continues to monitor the Duncan v. Bonta and Gator’s Customs Guns, Inc. v. Washington petitions, which were held over by the Supreme Court. Both cases challenge state restrictions on standard capacity magazines. NSSF contends that magazines are arms, protected by the Second Amendment and states that ban standard capacity magazines are violating the civil rights of law-abiding citizens of those states.



About NSSF

NSSF is the trade association for the firearm industry. Its mission is to promote, protect and preserve hunting and the shooting sports. Formed in 1961, NSSF has a membership of thousands of manufacturers, distributors, firearm retailers, shooting ranges, sportsmen’s organizations and publishers nationwide.

Primary Weapons Systems Introduces the MK2 MOD 2-M Rifle

Primary Weapons Systems Introduces the MK2 MOD 2-M Rifle

Boise, ID (June 29, 2026) – Primary Weapons Systems (PWS) is spotlighting the MK2 MOD 2-M rifle, offered in both 16-inch and 18-inch barrel configurations, delivering .308 WIN performance in a refined, piston-driven platform backed by the PWS sub-MOA accuracy guarantee.

Each MK2 MOD 2-M is built around a 41V50 stainless steel barrel chambered in .308 WIN with a 1:10 twist, engineered to stabilize a wide range of projectile weights. The 16-inch configuration offers a compact, maneuverable footprint suited for patrol or field use, while the 18-inch model delivers added velocity and extended-range capability. With quality match ammunition, both barrel lengths are guaranteed to shoot sub-MOA.

At the core of the platform is PWS’s proven long-stroke piston operating system with a 3-position adjustable gas regulator. Designed to perform in both suppressed and unsuppressed configurations, the system vents excess gas forward to reduce fouling in the receiver and keep operating temperatures down. The patent-pending Bore Evacuator further manages gas at the muzzle through an expansion chamber that redirects excess pressure via the Venturi effect.

Both variants ship with the FRC 3 Port compensator for recoil and flash mitigation, compatible with PWS PUB suppressor mounts and other common HUB taper mount adaptors. A semi-monolithic free float M-LOK rail secured by a proprietary barrel nut enhances rigidity and supports consistent accuracy.

The rifles feature a 7075-T651 forged MOD 2-M proprietary upper with forward assist and a matching forged lower with fully ambidextrous bolt release and magazine release controls. Premium components include a Radian Raptor charging handle, Radian Talon ambidextrous safety selector, MIL-SPEC Enhanced PTFE-coated trigger with a 5.5–6.5 lb. pull weight, Magpul MOE-SL stock, PWS signature pistol grip, and Magpul 20-round PMAG. Both models are finished in MIL-A-8625 Type III hardcoat anodizing.

With 16 and 18-inch options, and a straightforward sub-MOA guarantee, the MK2 MOD 2-M delivers practical precision in a durable, piston-driven .308 platform.

Athlon Optics Expands Rangecraft Velocity PRO Capabilities with Major Athlon Ballistics App Updates

Athlon Optics Highlights Top Optics for Every Range Day Setup

Lenexa, KS (June 29, 2026) – Range days look different for every shooter. Some are chasing tighter groups from the bench, others are training with carbines at close distances, while precision shooters are stretching their rifles to extreme range. No matter the setup, Athlon Optics delivers dependable performance across every category, with optics designed to match skill level and budget.

Long Range 

Long-range shooting demands repeatable tracking, crisp glass clarity, and confidence behind the rifle. Athlon Optics offers precision-focused optics designed to help shooters push farther with every shot.

The Argos BTR GEN3 6-24×56 is an accessible entry into long-range precision, delivering reliable tracking and sharp glass at a price that won’t break the bank. It pairs a wide magnification range with a first focal plane reticle, making it a strong choice for shooters stepping into the 600 to 1,000-yard game.

For those ready to step up in both optical performance and versatility, the Midas TAC GEN2 5-30×56 stretches the magnification envelope without sacrificing image quality, with enhanced glass coatings providing the edge-to-edge clarity long-range shooters depend on when calling impacts and reading wind.

At the top of the long-range lineup sits the Cronus BTR GEN2 4.5-29×56, the flagship of Athlon’s precision scope family. It delivers elite-tier optical performance through premium glass and a locking turret system designed for demanding use, giving shooters competition-ready glass without the premium brand tax.

Short Range

Short-range and close-quarters setups reward fast acquisition, a wide field of view, and reliable eye relief. Athlon has strong options, whether the shooter is running a pistol or a rifle at speed.

For pistol shooters, the Midas Beam red dot is a compact, lightweight solution that delivers a clean, precise aiming point for competition, duty carry practice, or recreation.

On the rifle side, the Argos BTR GEN3 1-8×24 covers the full spectrum of practical rifle distances, functioning like a red dot at 1x for close work while offering enough resolution at 8x to engage steel or paper at several hundred yards. It is a capable and affordable choice for the shooter looking to do more with one optic.

For those who want Athlon’s best close-quarters performance, the Cronus BTR GEN2 1-6×24 brings premium glass and a true 1x experience together in a refined package. Competitors and serious trainers who spend time on both close-quarters drills and distance shooting will find it punches well above its weight.

Benchrest/Target

Benchrest and target shooting reward maximum magnification, surgical reticle design, and the kind of optical resolution that reveals every detail at distance. These are the optics for shooters who live on the mat.

The Argos BTR GEN3 10-40×56 provides a wide zoom range ideal for card-cutting at 100 yards or tracing groups at 300 yards and beyond, giving shooters a high-magnification option without a high-end price.

Stepping up, the Heras SPR 15-60×56 brings Athlon’s optical expertise to the precision shooting bench in a dedicated target scope configuration. With 60x top-end magnification and a fine reticle designed for the exacting demands of benchrest competition, it gives shooters the clarity needed to analyze every shot.

For those who want the absolute best, the Ares ETR GEN2 15-60×56 represents the top tier of Athlon’s optical engineering. It combines elite glass clarity with precision tracking in a package that holds its own alongside scopes costing significantly more, making it the standard for serious benchrest shooters.

Athlon Optics, known for its industry-leading lifetime warranty and commitment to optical clarity, has identified the right optic for every shooter at every price point. Whether a shooter is just getting started with a quality first focal plane scope or stepping into competition-grade glass, Athlon has an answer.

Every optic is designed to hold up under real-world use and provide lasting value. Athlon’s products are available through authorized dealers nationwide and at athlonoptics.com.

WOOX Introduces the Elegante Sporter Purpose-Built Bolt Action Stock

WOOX Introduces the Elegante Sporter Purpose-Built Bolt Action Stock

The New Standard in Classic Hunting Stocks

Elegante - Family On White - 1

Hickory, NC. (June 24th, 2026)WOOX, manufacturers of Italian-American made gunstocks, axes and knives, crafted with the finest materials and the latest technology, is proud to announce the introduction of the new Elegante Sporter bolt action rifle stock. The Sporter was designed and engineered for hunters who appreciate classic form with modern features, and field-proven performance.

“The Elegante Series began as a true passion project for our entire team,” said Ben Fleming, CEO of WOOX USA. “WOOX has always been known for blending the timeless character of wood with the strength, performance, and modern refinement of metal and aluminum. With the Elegante Series, our goal was to create something that felt classic and nostalgic in appearance, while incorporating modern design elements that enhance repeatability, consistency, and precision.” Fleming goes on to say, “We poured an incredible amount of care, craftsmanship, and intention into every detail of this series, and I’m confident the result is a timeless design that will resonate with end users who value both beauty and performance.”

The new Elegante Sporter stock embodies the essence of the traditional hunting rifle. Crafted from carefully selected Claro American Walnut, this elegant stock showcases the natural beauty and character of the wood while delivering the balance and handling expected from a modern bolt action platform. The Sporter is perfectly shaped and crafted in Italy, and hand finished in Hickory, NC. Weighing in at just 30 ounces, the Elegante Sporter is well under the weight of a traditional wood rifles stock. It utilizes an integrated aluminum mini-chassis to create the perfect balance between weight, repeatability, handling, and performance. This unique stock provides the same precision tolerances and repeatable bedding geometry that gives you chassis level performance in a traditional walnut stock.

The Elegante Sporter stock is built from a single piece of American Walnut with two choices of wood grades, standard or high-grade American Walnut. Each is hand-selected and chosen specifically for grain and character. Because walnut is a natural material, no two stocks carry the same pattern. The one you order is the only one that looks exactly like it, anywhere.

Premium Features include:

  • Full-length standard and high-grade American walnut, hand-oiled
  • Integrated aerospace-grade aluminum mini-chassis
  • Slim forend for fast, natural handling
  • Traditional grip geometry with integrated thumb rest
  • Ebony accents on grip and forend tip
  • M-LOK 2-slot rail at 6 o’clock position on forend for accessories
  • Microcell recoil pad assists in reduction of felt recoil
  • Adjustable length of pull via optional spacers
  • MSRP: Standard American Walnut $569.00 / High Grade Walnut $899.00

*Currently available for: Remington 700 SA/LA · Ruger 10/22 · Ruger

American Gen2

The Elegante Line is WOOX’s first purpose-built bolt-action platform for sport shooters and hunters; designed for those individuals who build or upgrade their rifle to keep and pass on for generations. This new line of stocks represents WOOX’s commitment to offering the finest old- world handcrafted quality in a technologically advanced platform. While other manufacturers put chassis systems inside synthetic or mass-produced wood stocks, WOOX utilizes a single hand-selected piece of hand-oiled Claro American Walnut on the outside with an aerospace-grade aluminum mini-chassis on the inside; precision-machined for chassis-level performance and repeatable bedding.

Like every WOOX creation, they are crafted in Italy, assembled and tested in the USA, and are built to last a lifetime. For more information about all WOOX premium stocks, knives, axes and accessories, please visit www.wooxstore.com and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Guess Which $61 Billion Defense-Tech Giant Wants to Set Up Shop in Israel?

Tech Giant Wants to Set Up Shop in Israel?

As defense technology becomes increasingly software-driven, military organizations are looking beyond traditional defense contractors and toward companies specializing in autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, sensors, and networked warfare. For technology firms operating in this space, access to advanced defense ecosystems can play a significant role in accelerating product development and operational testing.

One of the fastest-growing defense technology companies in the world (Anduril, Costa Mesa, CA) is now reportedly evaluating how to establish a local presence in Israel, with plans that could include both defense sales and participation in research and development activities.

According to reports, the company is currently conducting market assessments and meeting with senior defense and industry officials while evaluating different models for establishing operations. Among the options reportedly under consideration are building a local organization from the ground up or entering the market through an acquisition.

The company is also said to be in the final stages of selecting a local executive to lead future operations.

The potential expansion is notable because the company has become one of the most prominent players in the defense-tech sector. Its portfolio spans autonomous drones, counter-drone systems, command-and-control platforms, interceptors, cruise missiles, autonomous aircraft, sensors, and battlefield networking technologies.

Much of its growth has been driven by a strategy that combines internal development with targeted acquisitions. Over the years, it has added capabilities in areas such as radar technology, satellite intelligence, autonomous aviation, infrared sensing, rocket propulsion, and tactical communications.

From a defense perspective, a local presence could create opportunities for collaboration on autonomous systems, AI-enabled defense applications, command-and-control technologies, and next-generation sensor networks. These areas are increasingly central to modern military operations, where rapid decision-making and autonomous capabilities are becoming as important as traditional hardware.

The company has also placed significant emphasis on software-defined defense systems that integrate information from multiple sensors and platforms into a unified operational picture. This focus aligns with broader trends shaping military modernization programs worldwide.

While no final decision has reportedly been made regarding the structure of the expansion, the move reflects the continuing globalization of defense technology development. As autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, and advanced sensing technologies become more prominent, companies operating in these sectors are increasingly seeking access to environments that can support both innovation and operational deployment.

The reported expansion remains in the exploratory phase, but it signals growing interest in strengthening international partnerships within the defense technology sector.

Shell Shock Technologies’ Sponsored Shooter John Vlieger Takes Home 1st in Carry Optics Division at 2026 Bluegrass USPSA State Championship

Shell Shock Technologies’ Sponsored Shooter John Vlieger Takes Home 1st in Carry Optics Division at 2026 Bluegrass USPSA State Championship

Vlieger also took home Second Overall at the 2026 Bluegrass USPSA State Championship, held June 19 – 21, 2026, in Wilmore, Kentucky.

Eubank, KY (June 2026)Shell Shock Technologies, LLC. (SST), a leading innovator in the ammunition industry, is proud to announce its sponsored shooter, John Vlieger, finished 1st in the Carry Optics Division, as well as Second Overall, out of 91 competitors at the 2026 Bluegrass USPSA State Championship, hosted by the Blue Grass Sportsmen’s League. The match, held June 19 – 21, 2026, in Wilmore, Kentucky, featured 269 competitors across multiple divisions, with Vlieger completing 11 stages, totaling 157.15 seconds, and earning 997.5887 match points—96.85% of the available points.

“The Bluegrass State Championship was another great reminder of why I trust Shell Shock Technologies’ NAS³™ cases,” commented Vlieger. “My match ammo produced a 5-fps extreme spread and performed all weekend flawlessly, allowing me to focus entirely on execution. That consistency helped me secure the Carry Optics title and finish second overall.”

SST NAS3 cases are engineered for enhanced strength, corrosion resistance, and reduced weight compared to traditional brass casings. These benefits have made them a preferred choice among top-tier competitors like Vlieger, who demand peak performance from their gear.

“Taking first in Carry Optics and second overall in a field this competitive demands real skill and discipline, and we’re proud that shooters of John’s caliber trust NAS3 cases to deliver the consistency they need, round after round. His success reflects both his dedication and what NAS3 technology brings to the line,” said Peter Foss, Managing Partner and CEO of Shell Shock Technologies.

Vlieger has fired over 200,000 rounds of ammunition with SST’s NAS3 cases since first becoming a sponsored shooter in 2017. His next match appearance for the 2026 season will be at the 2026 Cheely Custom Gunworks Area 5 Championship, presented by S3 Range Carts, in Lyons, Michigan, from July 23 – 26, 2026.

About Shell Shock Technologies NAS3 Cases:

NAS3 pistol cases are 50 percent lighter than brass cases, offer greater lubricity, and will not abrade, clog, foul, wear out, or damage breach and ejector mechanisms. The cases offer greater corrosion resistance, tensile strength (2x stronger), and elasticity than brass. NAS3 cases will not split, chip, crack, or grow (stretch). The pistol cases are fully reloadable (using S3 Reload dies) and can be reloaded many more times than brass cases. NAS3 cases can be picked up with a magnet.

NAS3 is “Best in Class” for maintaining consistent velocity between rounds. In an independent test performed by H.P. White Laboratory (a major munitions testing facility), rounds fired using NAS3 cases achieved a velocity standard deviation of 0.093 FPS (124-grain FMJ bullet, 4.2 grains Titegroup powder, ten rounds, extreme variation 3fps).
