About Big Horn Armory:

Big Horn Armory was founded in 2008 with the expressed intention of designing a Browning-type lever-action gun chambered in 500 Smith & Wesson Magnum. The Big Horn Armory Model 89, made in America, closely follows the work of John Browning with refinements courtesy of modern metallurgy and machining capabilities. The first rifles began shipping in September of 2012 and since then, BHA has added to their big bore lineup with a Model 90 Carbine in 460 S&W, the Model 90A in 454 Casull, the Model 90B in .45 Colt, the Model 89A in 500 Linebaugh and the Model 89B in .475 Linebaugh. In 2017, Big Horn Armory took a departure from its lever-action series and developed the AR500 Auto Max, the most powerful short-range, semi-auto based on an AR .308 platform.

NSSF’s Project ChildSafe and Local Leaders Launch "Project ChildSafe Louisville" to Promote Firearm Safety

NSSF’s Project ChildSafe and Local Leaders Launch “Project ChildSafe Louisville” to Promote Firearm Safety

NSSF and partners to distribute 6,000 free gun locks to Kentucky residents to encourage secure firearm storage and help prevent accidents

LOUISVILLE, KY., December 11, 2024 – NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, and its Project ChildSafe® program today announced the launch of “Project ChildSafe Louisville” in collaboration with Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman, Mayor Craig Greenberg, the Louisville Metro Police Department and various state and city leaders and local organizations. The comprehensive citywide initiative aims to promote responsible firearm ownership and secure firearm storage practices across the community to prevent accidents, thefts and misuse, including suicide.

“Secure firearm storage is a critical step in protecting our communities from accidents and keeping them safer,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF President and CEO. “That’s why we’re honored to be working with so many partners to give away thousands of gun locks and educational materials across the city. Firearm accidents are preventable — our hope is that what begins here in Louisville will spread across the region and entire state of Kentucky to help raise awareness of how gun owners can practice secure firearm storage in the home and in vehicles.”

“We’ve all seen and heard the news about Aubree Goss, the three-year-old girl who lost her life here in Louisville when she found an unsecured gun,” said Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg. “Her death was preventable, and we can honor her memory by making sure this kind of tragedy never happens in our city again. I am calling on our community to join this effort and safely secure any guns in your home.”

Additional Background

During a press conference at the Louisville Metro Police Department Third Division headquarters, city officials and local leaders gathered to emphasize the importance of simple, everyday actions gun owners can take to help prevent firearm-related accidents, thefts and suicides. Following the press conference, five gun lock distribution events were held throughout the community, allowing Louisville residents to pick up free Project ChildSafe® gun locks and learn about other secure storage devices at local sites, no questions asked.

“The Office of the Attorney General is committed to protecting families,” said Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman. “We’re grateful for the collaboration with NSSF, Project ChildSafe, and all our partners in this important effort.”

Project ChildSafe Communities is a nationwide program of the NSSF, focused on promoting responsible firearm ownership and storage. The program works closely with local leaders and organizations to address each community’s unique needs and help spread firearm safety messages through trusted local channels.

In addition to Kentucky AG Russell Coleman, Mayor Craig Greenberg and the LMPD, partners include:

● State Representative Ken Fleming

● State Representative Keturah Herron

● State Senator David Yates

● Louisville Deputy Chief of Police Emily McKinley

● Whitney/Strong Organization

● American Foundation for Suicide Prevention – Kentucky

● NAMI Louisville

● Maryhurst

● Goodwill Industries of Kentucky

● Wood’s Armory, LLC

● Bud’s Gun Shop

● Obsidian Sportsman & Defense Club – NAAGA

● Women for Gun Rights

● League of Kentucky Sportsmen

NSSF’s Project ChildSafe has delivered more than 6,000 cable gun locks and educational materials to local partners for distribution among Louisville residents at no cost. A digital and outdoor advertising campaign will also run throughout the city, providing residents with information on where to obtain free gun locks and emphasizing the importance of secure firearm storage.

For more information on Project ChildSafe Communities and how to get involved, visit projectchildsafe.org.

About Project ChildSafe: NSSF, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, launched Project ChildSafe in 1999 (originally as Project HomeSafe). Since 1999, the program has provided more than 41 million free firearm safety kits that include gun locks to firearm owners in all 50 states through partnerships with thousands of law enforcement agencies across the country. That’s in addition to the more than 70 million free locking devices manufacturers have included, and continue to include, with new firearms sold since 1998. While helping to prevent accidents among children is a focus, Project ChildSafe is intended to help adults practice greater firearm safety in the home. More information is available at projectchildsafe.org.

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.

NSSF to Host 4^th Annual Governors’ Forum at SHOT Show 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, proudly announces the 4^th Annual Governors’ Forum at SHOT Show® 2025 is shaping up to host several state governors to discuss the importance of the firearm industry to their states, Second Amendment rights of their citizens and their insights to challenges and opportunities ahead for gun rights in the United States.

Idaho – Governor Brad Little
Montana – Governor Greg Gianforte
Nebraska – Governor Jim Pillen

NSSF is hosting the Governors’ Forum, moderated by Sean Davis, CEO and Co-Founder of The Federalist, to discuss the importance of the industry to their state, the legislative landscape and what can and should be done to protect the industry from gun control special interests threatening the firearm and ammunition industry and Second Amendment rights. More governors may be added to the forum as schedules permit.

“These governors are the leading voices for protecting Second Amendment rights and the firearm and ammunition industry that provides the means for Americans to lawfully exercise those rights,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President & General Counsel. “NSSF’s Governors’ Forum provides a unique opportunity for SHOT Show attendees and industry media to hear directly from those governors, especially in a year when the nation will transition to a new Trump presidential administration. NSSF has regularly welcomed governors to SHOT Show, but the Governors’ Forum is a rare chance to hear directly about the issues and opportunities facing the firearm industry and Second Amendment freedoms to their states.”

NSSF’s Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor Trade Show (SHOT Show), will take place at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas from Jan. 21-24, 2025. NSSF will host the annual Governors’ Forum at SHOT Show Wednesday, Jan. 22 from 1-2 p.m. at the Venetian Expo, Lido Room 3101A.

Big Horn Armory Unveils the AR500 NEXT GEN Line

Experience the unmatched firepower with the AR500 NEXT GEN Complete Upper Assembly and AR500 NEXT GEN Pistol.

Cody, Wyo. (December 2024) – Big Horn Armory (BHA), makers of big-bore firearms, is excited to announce the launch of its AR500 NEXT GEN series. Available as a Complete Upper Assembly or the new AR500 NEXT GEN Pistol, this line builds on the legacy of the original AR500 Rifle to deliver unmatched power and versatility for discerning shooters and professionals. Watch the video announcement for more details.

The AR500 NEXT GEN Complete Upper Assembly allows users to transform their existing AR10 lower into an AR500 rifle. Using a non-proprietary DPMS-style upper, this kit includes everything needed to experience the unparalleled power of the AR500. Using modified SR25 magazines, the assembly is both compatible and highly customizable. The kit features a complete assembled upper, an 18” barrel, adjustable gas block, muzzle brake, M-Lok hand guard, bolt carrier group, buffer and buffer spring, and a five-round magazine. With an MSRP of $1,200, the Complete Upper Assembly delivers exceptional value and performance.

“Whether you’re hunting big game or preparing for tactical scenarios, the NEXT GEN Complete Upper Assembly allows you to tap into the unparalleled power of the 500 Auto Max with the AR10 platform you already own,” said Greg Buchel, Owner of Big Horn Armory.

For those seeking power in a more compact format, the AR500 NEXT GEN Pistol redefines what’s possible with a semi-auto pistol. Chambered in 500 Auto Max, the pistol offers the strength of the original AR500 Rifle in a maneuverable and portable design. With its 10” barrel and compact AR platform, the AR500P is ideal for close-quarter use and rapid response scenarios. The MSRP for the AR500P is $2,599.

The 500 Auto Max cartridge is a rimless version of the 500 S&W Magnum. This versatile cartridge accommodates bullets ranging from 350 grains to an astounding 700 grains, making it suitable for applications ranging from precision shooting to stopping the largest game animals. The combination of this cartridge’s power and the AR500 platform creates an unparalleled shooting experience.

AG Composites Torture Test Video Series No. 2: How Much Can They Take?

Posted on Wednesday, 11 December, 2024 by twobirdsflyingpub

AG Composites Torture Test Video Series No. 2:
How Much Can They Take?

OWENS CROSS ROADS, Ala. (Dec. 10, 2024) — When it comes to touting how tough and durable hunting products are, many companies talk the talk, but do they really walk the walk in terms of actual torture testing? One company, AG Composites — the leader in the design and production of custom rifle stocks for both hunters and the world’s top competition shooters – not only takes torture testing to the limits but has made testing by independent YouTubers available, unedited, for you to see in an exciting new video series.

In Video No. 2 of the Torture Test Series, independent testers take an AG Composites Visigoth carbon fiber stock into the field and try and destroy it by aggressively running an ATV over it, spinning high-speed doughnuts on the stock as they try and demolish it. The result? A couple of minor paint scratches but no structural damage, and the accessory ARCA rail and sling swivel studs remain intact. This follows up on Video No. 1 of the Torture Test Series, in which the testers hung a total of 180 lbs. of barbell weights from the front sling swivel stud of a Privateer carbon fiber stock with no ill effect.
“No matter how ugly things get on the outside, you can trust that inside each AG Composite carbon fiber stock lies uncompromising strength and functionality,” said Matt Tandy, AG Composites owner. “We wanted to show our customers just how far our company has pushed the boundaries of carbon fiber technology in creating reliable rifle stocks for avid shooters and hunters everywhere in an entertaining and educational way. This series of short videos does just that. You won’t want to miss it.”
You can Be sure to check out the video series on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/p/DAbTJjAuv4P/ , or on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqTpz3ru_9jSNqBT0KPYHdQ/videos?app=desktop&view=0 To learn more about designing your own custom rifle stock, as well as finding more information about the company’s entire line of custom stocks, bottom metals, and accessories, visit their website, https://www.agcomposites.com/, or by calling 1-833-AGSTOCK or 256-723-8381.
AG Composites doesn’t just create products—it pushes technological boundaries. Its commitment to innovation is evident in every stock it designs, and the torture test video series proves this dedication.

Unleash the Ultimate Stability: The Swagger Bipods QD42 for Predator Hunts

Posted on Wednesday, 11 December, 2024 by twobirdsflyingpub

Unleash the Ultimate Stability: The Swagger Bipods QD42 for Predator Hunts

Grand Island, NE. (December 10, 2024) — The popular QD42 bipod from Swagger Bipods has become a staple in the predator hunter’s arsenal. The QD42 is a pinnacle of bipod technology and has become as essential for predator hunters as the electronic caller. It merges rugged durability with adaptable functionality to meet the demands of different hunting environments across the country and beyond.

The Swagger Bipods QD42 highlights a unique Quick Detach (QD) system, allowing rapid attachment and detachment while maintaining rock-solid stability. This bipod is engineered with a patented Quick Adapt Technology that ensures versatility. Hunters can effortlessly adjust the bipod’s height and angle to accommodate uneven terrain, providing a stable shooting platform regardless of the landscape, all while keeping their hands free to use game call remotes, hand calls, or lights when hunting at night. The QD42 is compatible with a picatinny rail as well as a standard swing swivel stud with the included adapter.

Key features of the QD42

Adjustable Height and Swivel Capability: The QD42’s patented Quick Adapt Technology offers a wide range of height adjustments and a full 360-degree swivel, allowing hunters to track moving predators quickly and precisely.
Durable Construction: Built with high-strength aluminum and reinforced composite materials, the QD42 is designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions and repeated use.
Quick Detach Mechanism: The innovative QD system ensures rapid setup and takedown, allowing hunters to respond swiftly to changing scenarios.

Predator hunters will find the Swagger QD42 indispensable for its flexibility and ease of use. Whether stalking through dense woods or setting up in open fields, the QD42’s ability to conform to conditions and shooting angles maximizes accuracy and the hunting experience. Its lightweight design and small profile ensure it can be easily carried and deployed in the field.

The QD42 is proudly molded and assembled in the USA with domestic and foreign components, ensuring high-quality craftsmanship and durability. The Swagger Bipods QD42 is available through authorized dealers and on their website.

At Swagger, we are confident our bipods will do for you what no bipod has ever done before, and back this claim with our Limited Lifetime Guarantee.

Hydra Weaponry H21 MARCK-15 GLOCK Style 10mm Rifle Packs a Punch

Posted on Wednesday, 11 December, 2024 by twobirdsflyingpub

Hydra Weaponry H21 MARCK-15 GLOCK® Style 10mm Rifle Packs a Punch

The Hydra MARCK-15 H21 rifle, configured to use GLOCK-style 10mm magazines, is the ultimate rifle partner for GLOCK G20 and G29 pistol owners for tactical, hunting, and defensive uses.

H21 Hydra MARCK-15 Modular Rifle

Hermon, Maine (December 2024) – Hydra Weaponry, Maine’s largest firearms employer, designers, and manufacturers of the truly modular MARCK-15 Hydra® Weapon System, introduces the new Hydra MARCK-15 H21 rifle built to use GLOCK-style 10mm magazines. This will become every GLOCK 20 and GLOCK 29 pistol owner’s new rifle partner. With the rise of the popularity of the 10mm again, the Hydra H21 rifle makes a powerful deer hunting tool in most states with the 10mm round for its high-velocity and flat shooting capability.

The 10mm cartridge was designed in response to the cataclysmic 1986 FBI Miami shootout in which FBI agents using 9mm caliber pistols were seriously outperformed. The caliber was later decommissioned as it was found to be too recoil-heavy for trainees and the 10mm pistol grips were too large for smaller-handed agents. The .40 S&W was developed and replaced the 10mm, although it is still used by many law enforcement officers for its greater firepower and flat shooting. Handgun hunters have increasingly switched out to 10mm firearms, including the full-sized GLOCK 20 10mm pistol. This makes the Hydra H21 MARCK-15 modular rifle in 10mm a perfect pairing for those who already carry the GLOCK 20 or compact GLOCK 29, or those looking to utilize a 10mm AR deer hunting platform (check state and local laws for AR and caliber allowances for deer/and or any other hunting regulations).

The Hydra Weaponry team designed a Hydra modular lower receiver with a 10mm H21 magazine well. With the H21 mag well as the starting point, Hydra included the Hydra Quick Change Barrel Upper Receiver (QCB-D) along with a Hydra 16-inch 10mm blowback barrel, a 10mm blowback bolt, and a durable B5 Systems stock and pistol grip.

Owners of the new Hydra MARCK-15 10mm H21 Modular Rifle can use this as the base to expand caliber capabilities through Hydra Weaponry’s growing magazine well and caliber conversion kits. Easy to change out, even in the field, the rifle requires no tools to convert to another caliber with the most the user will ever need to change out is the barrel, bolt, bolt carrier, and the magazine well to the new caliber.

“A modular concept rifle is the most cost-effective system to purchase when money is an issue but you need multiple calibers to accomplish different tasks. That is why our Hydra MARCK-15 Modular Rifles offer the best in the field for quality and accuracy while being kind to your wallet. Now, with our sale in process, it’s the time to get your hands on a base model and as many conversions as possible!” Mack Gwinn III, CEO of Hydra Weaponry, said.

The Hydra MARCK-15 H21 10mm Modular Rifle weighs 10 lbs. and measures 21” x 3” x 7” in a black finish. Inserts for the handguard include MLOK, KeyMOD, and Picatinny. MSRP $1,400 to $1,538.00. Order online and pick up at your local dealer.

Dealers interested in carrying the new Hydra MARCK-15 10mm H21 Modular Rifle should contact Tanner Smart for the Hydra Dealer Program.

Hydra Weaponry is the future of small arms.

Introducing Galco’s SB30 Masterbilt Holster Belt!

Introducing Galco’s SB30 Masterbilt Holster Belt!

December 2024

Introducing Galco’s SB30 Masterbilt Holster Belt!

An excellent companion to the Masterbilt™ holster series, the SB30 Masterbilt Holster Belt features double rows of stitching and Galco’s flat-back buckle design featuring our Masterbilt logo medallion.

The Masterbilt series combines our finest-quality premium leathers with the skills of our most experienced craftsmen. It’s the pinnacle of leather holster construction, unrivaled by anything on the market.

The polished, solid brass buckle is investment cast in our in-house foundry, and features a circular medallion embossed with our Masterbilt logo on an antiqued black background.

The Masterbilt buckle’s unique post-style attachment allows it to lie flat. Traditional mechanical or plate buckles require the leather strap to wrap around the buckle attachment point, creating three belt layers when worn – versus only two layers with this design.

The sturdy 1 1/2″ belt strap is constructed of two layers of steerhide with double rows of stitching. Seven holes spaced 1″ apart allow a broad range of fit and adjustment.

Available in black or tan with a polished, solid brass buckle.
