Unlock Smooth Shooting: Renegauge’s D.R.I.V. System

Posted on Friday, 14 February, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

Savage Arms Firearms 101

When we began building a shotgun, we knew it was a crowded market. Many companies make functional semi-automatic shotguns. It wasn’t enough to simply make another one—this one had to be a Savage. The result is Renegauge—Savage’s first semi-automatic shotgun. One look at Renegauge will show it’s different, but what makes it really unique can’t be seen from the outside. At the end of the magazine tube and below the barrel is our patented Dual Regulating Inline Valve (DRIV) gas system.

Renegauge's DRIV gas system uses two valves to cycle the action and reduce felt recoil

As the name suggests, the DRIV gas system regulates the gas that drives the action. As the round fires, expanding gases are vented from inside the barrel by two valves that work together to regulate the pressure needed to eject the spent shell.

The first action of the DRIV gas system will feel familiar. The valves open and use the energy created by the expanding gasses to drive the bolt rearward. This is a time-tested design for semi-autos, and one that—in many guns—creates as many problems as it solves. Low-recoil shells may lack the energy to cycle the bolt. Magnum loads may dump too much gas into a system, which is hard on the shooter and the gun.

What makes Renegauge so versatile is its dual valve design. This patented design allows both valves to relieve gas pressure simultaneously in order to cycle the action. The pressure needed to work the action enters in, but any excess pressure dumps through the front of the gas system. The result is an action that regulates energy with every shot. The DRIV gas system valves only pull enough energy to cycle the action, regardless of the load. Magnum loads and low-brass shells both cycle reliably.

When we say Renegauge is balanced, we mean more than how it feels in the hand. The timing of the DRIV gas system’s two valves allows for even more accurate spring calibration inside the action. As a result, Renegauge is both exceptionally consistent and lightning fast. Shells eject with exacting precision, with empty shells from various loads following the same path. And the reduced impact wear from magnum shells prolongs the life of the whole firearm. The DRIV gas system even features a staggered multi-port arrangement designed to prevent wad shaving.

Renegauge is truly self-regulating. There are no adjustments to make to account for increases or decreases in velocity. 3” magnums will run as consistently and reliably as 2 ¾” target loads and low recoil shells. While the DRIV gas system is at the heart of what makes Renegauge work, there’s more—much more—that makes Renegauge worthy of the Savage name.

Posted on Thursday, 13 February, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

APEX and Woodhaven Introduce NEXT LEVEL Ninja Turkey Loads

Columbus, Miss. (February 12, 2025) – APEX Ammunition and Woodhaven Custom Calls are excited to introduce NEXT LEVEL Ninja TSS shotshells – a new blend of Tungsten Super Shot for turkey hunting. The NEXT LEVEL Ninja features a combination of # 8.5 and # 9.5 TSS, offering the perfect balance between pattern density and knockdown power.

The result of feedback from avid turkey hunters and developed in collaboration with Woodhaven, this premium blend delivers optimized lethality at varied distances, ensuring versatility in numerous hunting situations. NEXT LEVEL Ninja is a lethal turkey load that bridges the gap between the original APEX Smalltown blend and Greenleaf blend – the perfect choice for hunters who prefer medium-sized shot blends.

“At APEX, we’re always pushing the boundaries to give hunters the best possible options when they take to the woods in pursuit of wild turkey,” said Jason Lonsberry, President and CEO, APEX Ammunition. “We’re excited to be back in the innovation process with our partners at Woodhaven Custom Calls. Our new NEXT LEVEL Ninja blend strikes the perfect balance –offering a ‘not-too-big, not-too-small’ solution for hunters looking for versatility. We can’t wait to see it in action this spring.”

“APEX continues to be the industry leader and innovator in the TSS market,” said Mike Pentecost, Founder and Owner, Woodhaven Custom Calls. “The popular Turkey Ninja loads (8.5 shot) that we launched back in 2020 have surely been, and will continue to be, a lethal load, and we are excited to bring a NEXT LEVEL Ninja blend (8.5 – 9.5 shot) to turkey hunters nationwide. I know the NEXT LEVEL will deliver superior performance and give hunters the perfect blend to hunt with.”

Why NEXT LEVEL Ninja?

Balanced pellet size – The perfect mix of dense patterns and hard-hitting power.

Unmatched versatility – Designed to perform across all hunting conditions.

Lethality at varied distances – Whether up close or at range, NEXT LEVEL gets the job done.

Available In:

12 Gauge (3.5″ 2-1/2 oz) – 931 pellets
12 Gauge (3″ 2-1/4 oz) – 854 pellets
20 Gauge (3″ 1-5/8 oz) – 608 pellets
28 Gauge (2-3/4″ 1-1/2 oz) – 569 pellets
.410 Gauge (3″ 7/8 oz) – 376 pellets

With three distinct blends now in the APEX lineup – Smalltown (7.5 / 9 TSS), Greenleaf (9 / 10 TSS), and the new NEXT LEVEL Ninja Blend (8.5 / 9.5 TSS) —hunters can customize their load options to match their hunting style. Whether you prefer maximum pattern density, core tightness, or a perfect balance in between, APEX gives you the power to choose.

All NEXT LEVEL Ninja loads come in 5-round boxes, except for the .410 which comes in a 10-round box.

MSRP: $59.99 – $84.99

The NEXT LEVEL Ninja blend will be available exclusively at the Woodhaven Custom Calls booth (#1401) at the NWTF Convention in Nashville and online at ApexAmmunition.com.

RETAY USA to Exhibit at the National Wild Turkey Federation Convention

Brand Ambassadors Dr. Duck and Billy Campbell to appear at RETAY USA Booth 1854 on Friday, Feb. 14, 2025, from 2:30 – 3:30 pm.

Easton, Md. (February 2025) – RETAY USA, the North American sales and distribution for RETAY ARMS, makers of innovative shotguns, will be exhibiting at the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) Convention at the Gaylord Opryland in Nashville, Tennessee, from Feb. 13 – 15, 2025. Attendees are invited to visit RETAY USA at Booth 1854 to explore the latest innovations in shotgun and firearms technology. RETAY will be offering exclusive show specials on its Gordion and GPS-XL turkey shotguns, giving attendees the perfect opportunity to experience the superior performance and innovation of these field-ready firearms.

As part of the event, RETAY USA will host a special meet and greet with Dr. Duck and Billy Campbell on Friday, Feb. 14, 2025, from 2:30 – 3:30 pm. Dr. Duck, a dedicated RETAY brand ambassador, is committed to growing the waterfowl hunting community and equipping hunters with high-performance gear.

“The NWTF Convention is the perfect opportunity for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts to experience the latest innovations from RETAY firsthand,” commented JP Fischer, VP of Sales for Banshee Brands, Inc. “We’re excited to showcase our new lineup and connect with the hunting community.”

RETAY’s Gordion Rifled Slug Gun redefines performance and reliability with cutting-edge engineering designed for serious hunters and sport shooters. Utilizing a modern deep bore drilling process, it produces an exceptionally straight barrel, eliminating the stress and structural weaknesses often found in traditionally hammer-forged barrels. This results in a stronger, more accurate barrel with dense shot placement. At its core, the Gordion features RETAY’s patented Inertia Plus™ Bolt System, a revolutionary advancement that actively rotates and locks the bolt head into battery, ensuring flawless cycling in any condition—marking the biggest leap in inertia-driven shotgun technology in 50 years. Engineered for durability, the shotgun boasts an aerospace-grade 7075 aluminum alloy receiver, offering exceptional strength without unnecessary weight. It comes standard with a cantilevered Picatinny rail mount and iron rifle sights, delivering versatility and precision for a variety of shooting applications. Oversized controls allow for easy handling, even with gloves or in harsh environments, while integrated sling mounts ensure effortless carry. Unlike many competitors, RETAY maintains a plastic-free design for key components, including the receiver, trigger, and trigger guard, ensuring long-lasting, seamless operation in the field. Available in 12ga and 20ga, the Gordion ensures superior accuracy with every shot, making it a trusted choice for serious hunters and homeowners alike.

The Air Control Extreme (ACE) and ACE TYPE R Shotguns represent the next evolution of RETAY’s Inertia Plus™ system, incorporating 16 advanced features for superior performance. Building on the proven reliability of the Masai Mara, these shotguns offer waterfowl hunters the ultimate combination of precision, durability, and value. The ACE TYPE R features an enhanced raised receiver for optimized handling and a smoother shooting experience. Both models are available in 12ga, 20ga, and 28ga configurations.

The RETAY Gordion Turkey is a high-performance semi-automatic shotgun engineered for reliability across diverse shooting conditions. Featuring RETAY’s advanced “Straight Line” Inertia Transfer Action and “Inertia Plus” bolt system, it delivers consistent, flawless operation. Built with a durable, single-piece alloy receiver, the Gordion Turkey also incorporates RETAY’s patented “Easy Out” Magazine Unloading system for added convenience. Equipped with a precision deep bore barrel, available in both 12ga and 20ga configurations, this shotgun ensures accurate shot placement, making it an excellent choice for both hunters and competitive shooters.

The GPS-XL (Geometric Pump System) pump-action shotgun is built for uncompromising performance in the field. Chambered in 12ga 3.5”, it delivers the power and versatility serious hunters demand. Featuring RETAY’s exclusive floating-forearm technology, along with a dual slide rail and dual latch action, the GPS-XL ensures ultra-fast cycling for quick follow-up shots when every second counts. Designed for superior accuracy and durability, the GPS-XL boasts a fully drilled barrel with an elongated forcing cone for improved pattern density, interchangeable chokes, and a dovetail optics mount.

RETAY’S newest handgun, the RXP22 Pistol is a semi-automatic .22LR pistol built for training and recreational shooting. Designed with a 9mm-like feel, the RXP22 features a compact polymer frame with integrated grip texturing, a smooth double/single action hammer-fired design, and manual safety. The RXP22 boasts a precision-drilled, chrome-finished AISI 4140 steel barrel for superior accuracy and longevity, surpassing typical low-quality barrels. It also includes a threaded barrel for suppressor attachment, an optic-ready slide with pre-drilled holes for RMR and RMSC optics, and a universal mounting plate for a wide range of optics. The RXP22 offers high-quality performance at an affordable price, making it a reliable option for shooters of all skill levels.

Dennis Loosier (Dr. Duck) and Billy Campbell have been waterfowl hunting together for nearly 30 years. Born and raised in East Texas, Dr. Duck developed his passion for hunting while exploring public lands and migratory bird patterns. His dedication to scouting and conservation has led to great success in the field. Today, Dr. Duck owns an air conditioning business but spends much of his time traveling across multiple states, pursuing waterfowl with Campbell. He also hosts the popular DR DUCK YouTube waterfowl hunting show, sharing insights and experiences with fellow hunters.

The National Wild Turkey Federation Convention & Sport Show is an annual gathering celebrating conservation, hunting heritage, and outdoor camaraderie. This year’s event promises to be bigger than ever, featuring new events, exciting giveaways, an expanded Sport Show with more vendors and experiences, and opportunities to recognize NWTF volunteers who are making a difference in their communities.

What does the President’s 2A Executive Order Mean?

Posted on Wednesday, 12 February, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

President Trump Signs Pro-2A Executive Order

Washington, D.C. — On Friday, February 7th, 2025, President Trump signed the first pro-Second Amendment Executive Order in our nation’s history, an action the ASA strongly applauds. This order effectively reverses the unconstitutional firearm restrictions imposed by the Biden administration and directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to conduct a comprehensive review of all executive actions, regulations, guidance, and policies implemented under the previous administration. By March 10th, 2025, the DOJ must present a plan to the President outlining steps to safeguard the Second Amendment rights of all Americans.

This follows a DOJ Memo dated February 5, 2025, by newly confirmed Attorney General Bondi which included the following policy changes regarding ATF resources:

“Shifting ATF Resources. To free resources to address more pressing priorities, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) shall shift resources from its Alcohol and Tobacco Enforcement Programs to focus on matters relating to the other priorities set forth herein. No resources shall be diverted from the ATF’s regulatory responsibilities, such as federal firearms licenses and background checks.”[emphasis added]

Of particular importance to ASA is the review’s focus on firearm transfer applications, which explicitly includes Form 4 applications for suppressors. This presents an opportunity for the DOJ and ATF to further reduce suppressor transfer wait times and establish lasting reforms to streamline the process.

Additionally, the order directs a review of the government’s legal positions in ongoing and potential litigation impacting Americans’ Second Amendment rights. This opens the door for the Administration to weigh in on cases such as the ASA-F and Silencer Shop-backed lawsuit challenging Illinois’ suppressor ban. Furthermore, the review includes an examination of firearm and ammunition classifications, providing an avenue to reassess past ATF rulings on suppressor parts that lack logical or legal justification.

The ASA is committed to working directly with the DOJ and the White House to ensure these critical issues remain at the forefront of the administration’s review. We will continue to advocate for meaningful reforms that protect and advance the rights of suppressor owners nationwide.

Armed Women of America Partners with NSSF’s First Shots Program

Posted on Wednesday, 12 February, 2025 by twobirdsflyingpub

February 11, 2025

Armed Women of America Partners with NSSF’s First Shots Program

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF^®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, is pleased to announce that Armed Women of America has become an official partner of NSSF’s First Shots^® program. First Shots is the introductory and refresher target-shooting program made available through host target-shooting ranges across the country.

A non-profit organization, Armed Women of America organizes local groups of women around the country that meet monthly to practice, learn and grow as shooters. The group says it exists to enable women “to be their own self-protectors, creating freedom, peace of mind and confidence in themselves.”

With more than 250 chapters nationwide, Armed Women of America will work with NSSF’s First Shots to reach thousands of new, intermediate and experienced women shooters to help build their marksmanship and firearm safety skills and to enjoy the camaraderie and fun of the shooting sports. Local chapters of the group can be found on its website.

“The partnership between Armed Women of America and First Shots provides the support and expertise that newcomers and novices are seeking when they’re introduced to recreational shooting,” said Zach Snow, NSSF Director, Member Development. “The partnership also emphasizes firearm safety and the confidence that comes with belonging to a supportive community that enjoys target shooting and training together.

“More Americans want to learn about recreational shooting and owning firearms for personal security. First Shots has been designed to assist them by providing education in the classroom and experience on the firing line,” added Snow.

By providing educational experiences that are safe, fun and memorable, First Shots partners and host ranges are having great success in attracting first-timers, further engaging new gun owners and in reactivating lapsed participants. Surveys show that more than 43 percent of First Shots participants are converted to target-shooting enthusiasts, demonstrating that First Shots is fulfilling a need for providing a supportive environment to those who want to know more about recreational shooting and firearm ownership.

“We are proud to partner with NSSF’s First Shots program, which has introduced thousands of people to recreational shooting and continues to attract participants of all ages. As a dedicated partner of First Shots, Armed Women of America hopes to introduce even more women to the wide world of responsible and safe firearm ownership and the wide world of recreational shooting opportunities for women. We hope more people will discover Armed Women of America, recreational shooting and taking charge of one’s personal security thanks to First Shots,” said Jan Ennenga, AWA Executive Director.

NSSF invites other organizations associated with the shooting sports and industry to consider becoming First Shots partners. The benefits to the organization and to the future of the shooting sports are considerable. Learn how to become a First Shots partner by contacting Ann Gamauf at 203-426-1320 ext. 247.
