Introducing the Barnett® Hyper Raptor BCX™ with Cutting-Edge Technology and Advanced Optics

Tarpon Springs, FL (August 5, 2024) – New for 2024, Buck Commander and Barnett® have combined forces to bring a one-of-a-kind crossbow for hunters looking to tag their next trophy! The Hyper Raptor BCX™ sets the industry standard in crossbow technology, blending premium features, cutting-edge innovation, and top-tier technology to deliver the smoothest, fastest, and most user-friendly shooting experience available! Rooted in over 60 years of unwavering commitment to quality, dependability, precision, and safety, Barnett stands as the original pioneer in the modern-day crossbow, earning the trust of hunters worldwide. Buck Commander and Barnett combine everything hunters need in the hard-hitting, lightweight Hyper Raptor BCX.

Lightning-fast speed is one of the many stand-out features of the Hyper Raptor BCX. With a 14-in. power stroke and draw weight of 215 lbs., the crossbow launches a 380-grain HyperFlite™ arrow at 425 FPS. The arrow’s 21% increased FOC (front of center) and .204 small-diameter shaft reduces wind drift, making for a deadly combination of blistering speed, downrange accuracy, and deeper penetration. The BCX delivers an impressive 152 ft./lbs. of kinetic energy, this setup leaves nothing to chance.

Superior accuracy for the lifetime of the crossbow was at the forefront of the design. The Hyper Raptor BCX uses self-timing infinity cams, a hunter-friendly feature that improves consistency and accuracy. Pivoting limb pockets boost durability, and the innovative Halo System guarantees balanced string travel for even better precision. Adding a light, crisp, premium TriggerTech™ trigger improves the shooting experience while providing critical anti-dry fire technology — and an extra layer of safety!

Barnett uses advanced materials in the new Hyper Raptor BCX, keeping its weight at 6.9 lbs. Hunters will love the compact profile in the blind or on a stand. It measures 32.5-in. overall and is only 7.25-in. wide from axle to axle when cocked. An adjustable buttstock allows further length of pull customization.

The Hyper Raptor BCX includes premium features Barnett is famous for, including a custom step-through riser, advanced limbs, and a Soft-Lok Bristle Retainer System. The Veil Tac Black contrast camo finish on the frame and limbs with orange accents on the trigger guard and Halo gives it a distinctive appearance. Integrated string and vibration dampeners on the frame and its fold-down vertical grip minimize the crossbow’s sound and detection during the shot.

Barnett offers the new model Hyper Raptor BCX in one of three optics-mounted packages, including the BUK OPS® Cycloptic-X™ crossbow scope with Primetime Color Vision™ that uses digital technology to enhance what is seen through the scope, BUK OPS X-Factor™ LRF crossbow scope with a built-in angle compensating laser range finder or the Barnett 2-7×36 Speed Dial, Precision Reticle scope.

The Hyper Raptor BCX is compatible with HyperFlite arrows or Headhunter standard diameter arrows with moon nock. The crossbow includes the new quick-detach side-mount quiver bracket, 3-arrow premium quiver, and three HyperFlite 20-in., .204 small-diameter arrows with field points.

Elevate any hunting experience with the powerful Barnett Hyper Raptor BCX.

Hatsan’s Highly Customizable Competition PCP Rifle – Factor RC

Posted on Tuesday, 6 August, 2024 by twobirdsflyingpub

Hatsan’s Highly Customizable Competition PCP Rifle – Factor RC

Rogers, AR (August 5, 2024) – The Factor RC, offered by HatsanUSA, is a remarkably versatile PCP air rifle designed for competitive shooting. It comes in three different calibers (.177, .22, and .25) and offers extensive customization options, allowing shooters to precisely adjust and personalize it to suit their specific competition requirements and shooting preferences.

One of its notable features is its ability to accept commercially available pistol grips and buttstocks made for modern sporting rifles. The Factor RC boasts an ergonomic pistol grip covered in soft, durable rubber and textured to provide maximum grip and control. The 5-position telescoping buttstock also features an elevation adjustable cheek rest that can be moved in 5mm increments up to 40mm tall or removed for low-profile optics. Hatsan’s fully adjustable Quattro Trigger includes a trigger pad that can be moved vertically and rotated left or right for maximum precision and comfort.

The Factor RC’s power output is also highly adjustable, featuring an externally adjustable pressure regulator with an output pressure gauge. A power level knob on one side of the receiver controls the amount of air transferred into the barrel, while a hammer preload adjuster on the other side helps fine-tune the power output and cocking effort. The Factor RC features a removable 580cc carbon fiber air tank with a Foster-style quick-disconnect fill inlet. An integrated color-coded manometer allows the system pressure to be easily monitored at a glance.

The 23-inch-long precision rifled and choked barrel ensures accuracy, while Hatsan’s QuietEnergy technology and full-length barrel shroud reduce noise output. A standard ½” UNF threaded muzzle piece is included to allow a larger sound moderator or air stripper to be added without modifications. The Factor RC also comes with two high-capacity SwingLoad magazines that can be linked to facilitate faster mag changes. A single-shot tray is also included for precision loading. A picatinny rail is installed beneath the forearm, along with a combination optic system accepting picatinny, Weaver, and 11mm dovetail mounts.

All these features add a greater level of precision and consistency. The Factor RC can place over 100 shots on target from a single fill and comes in a package that weighs less than 8 lbs. For ultimate power, performance, customization, and competition, the Factor RC is the ideal choice.

NSSF Celebrates 5 Years of Over 1 Million Monthly Background Checks for Firearm Sales

Posted on Tuesday, 6 August, 2024 by twobirdsflyingpub

NSSF

August 5, 2024

NSSF Celebrates 5 Years of Over 1 Million Monthly Background Checks for Firearm Sales

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, celebrates that July marks 60 consecutive months – or five years – of more than 1 million monthly NSSF-Adjusted FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) verifications for the sale of a firearm at retail. This milestone is demonstrative of Americans’ desire to lawfully exercise their Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms for lawful purposes. The last time monthly background checks associated with the sale of a firearm at retail were below 1 million was July 2019, when 830, 579 background checks for firearm sales were recorded.

Since then, each month, the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) has recorded over 1 million background checks associated with the sale of at least one firearm at retail. July 2024’s total was 1,06,790 – a 4 percent increase over the 1,023,903 background checks recorded in July 2023.

“This mile marker shows the enduring appeal by Americans from all walks of life to exercise their uniquely-American right to keep and bear arms,” said Joe Bartozzi, NSSF President and CEO. “These million-plus monthly background checks over the past five years represent the free expression of Second Amendment rights during tough and troubling times, including the COVID-19 pandemic when certain governors were shuttering gun stores and the Biden-Harris administration’s ‘zero-tolerance’ policy to revoke licenses to sell firearms. During this time, Americans who never previously considered lawful firearm ownership decided to become gun owners. We’re proud of our industry’s work to provide the means to exercise those rights to law-abiding citizens across the country.”

The five years of million-plus monthly background checks included record setting years for lawful firearm ownership. The month with the most background checks for firearm sales ever recorded was in March 2020, when 2.3 million background checks were completed. That year – 2020 – over 21 million background checks for the sale of a firearm had been completed by the year’s end. That shattered the previous annual record set in 2016 of 15.7 million completed background checks. During this five-year stretch of million-plus background checks each month, 86,410,889 FBI NICS background checks have been completed for the sale of at least one firearm at retail. NSSF is grateful for the diligence and ability of FBI NICS to meet the staggering demands year-over-year.

These figures are conservative. Actual retail sales of firearms are likely much higher. Twenty-four states currently have a qualified alternative permit, which under the Brady Act allows the permit-holder, who has undergone a background check to obtain the permit, to purchase a firearm from a licensed dealer without a separate additional background check for that transfer. The number of NICS checks in these states does not include these legal transfers based on qualifying permits and NSSF does not adjust for these transfers.

The adjusted NICS data were derived by subtracting out NICS purpose code permit checks and permit rechecks used by states for concealed carry permit application checks as well as checks on active concealed carry permit databases. NSSF started subtracting permit rechecks in February 2016.

Though not a direct correlation to firearms sales, the NSSF-adjusted NICS data provide an additional picture of current market conditions. In addition to other purposes, NICS is used to check transactions for sales or transfers of new or used firearms.

It should be noted that these statistics represent the number of firearm background checks initiated through the NICS. They do not represent the number of firearms sold or sales dollars. Multiple firearms may be purchased at the same time and at the same location with a single background check, as FBI NICS verifies that the purchaser is not prohibited from possessing a firearm, and not an actual check on the firearm itself. Based on varying state laws, local market conditions and purchase scenarios, a one-to-one correlation cannot be made between a firearm background check and a firearm sale.

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.

Colt CZ Group SE acquires the Mk 47 automatic grenade launcher system technology

Prague (January 3, 2024) ― Colt CZ Group SE (“Colt CZ”, the “Group” or the “Company”) hereby announces that it acquired intellectual property rights for the Mk 47 automatic grenade launcher from General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (“GD-OTS” or “General Dynamics”).

Colt CZ Group, through its subsidiary Colt, has acquired ownership of the Mk 47 40mm Advanced Lightweight Grenade Launcher system, including the Fire Control, from General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems (GD-OTS). The Mk 47 is a reliable, portable 40mm grenade launcher suited for light infantry vehicles and tripod applications. This weapon system provides the warfighter with a decisive technological advantage over enemy forces equipped with older crew-served weapons.

“This acquisition expands Colt CZ Group’s offerings into the segment of larger and more sophisticated weapon systems and crew-served platforms. The acquisition of this highly capable weapon system is fully in line with our Group’s mission to provide innovative and high-quality products that our customers can rely on in any situation. Also, it will nicely complement the efforts our subsidiary swissAA has in the production of 40mm grenades,” said Jan Drahota, CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Colt CZ Group.

“Colt’s Manufacturing Company is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of firearms used by militaries around the world. Colt has a history of producing crew-served weapons and 40mm shoulder fired grenade launchers. Bringing the Mk 47 and Fire Control into the Colt CZ Group will allow our experienced engineering and operations team to expand its capabilities for the Future Soldier requirements,” adds Dennis Veilleux, CEO of Colt CZ Group North America and Member of the Board of Directors of Colt CZ Group.

The Mk 47 is a lightweight 40mm automatic grenade launcher with an integrated fire control system, capable of functioning as a standard automatic grenade launcher or programable airburst capability. The Mk 47 can be tripod, vehicle, air or watercraft mounted. The Mk 47 can launch smart programmable 40mm air burst grenades through in-bore or radio frequency (RF) programming in addition to various unguided point impact rounds. The Mk 47 fires all NATO standard high velocity 40mm rounds, providing firepower against soft and lightly armored targets.

NSSF Welcomes USFWS Expanded Hunting Opportunities on Public Lands

NSSF Welcomes USFWS Expanded Hunting Opportunities on Public Lands

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, welcomes the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) announcement that more opportunities will be opened for sportsmen and women to hunt and fish on National Wildlife Refuges (NWR). The USFWS announced that 53 new hunting and fishing opportunities across 211,000 acres on 12 NWRs are being added to the 400 existing NWRs and 35 wetland management areas where hunting and fishing opportunities already exist.

“This announcement of more and expanded hunting opportunities on National Wildlife Refuges is an accomplishment all the firearm industry celebrates, along with all outdoorsmen and women,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President & General Counsel. “It has long been the goal that hunting opportunities should be opened on public lands and made available to the public. They are the public land owners and the ones who are vested in seeing these hunting opportunities benefit sustainable wildlife conservation. The firearm industry is particularly proud of the conservation investment made by firearm and ammunition manufacturers through the federal firearm and ammunition excise taxes that are the primary driver of wildlife conservation in America.”

NSSF welcomes USFWS’s recent announcement embracing voluntary pilot programs to educate hunters about alternative ammunition options for hunting. Hunters and recreational marksmen should be free to choose the ammunition that will best serve their needs for ethical and efficient harvesting of wildlife. NSSF is disappointed, however, that today’s opening of additional big game hunting opportunities will restrict the use of traditional ammunition. Wildlife management decisions should be based on sound scientific field data. Restrictions on the use of traditional ammunition should only be imposed where the sound science establishes a wildlife population decline caused by hunters’ use of traditional ammunition and there is no other less-costly remedial measure available to effectively address the issue. Today’s “Hunt-Fish” rule does not set forth such science that would justify restricting the use of traditional ammunition on the newly opened big game opportunities.

NSSF is proud that the firearm and ammunition industry has invested over $27.38 billion, when adjusted for inflation, to wildlife conservation in America since 1937 through the Pittman-Robertson federal firearm and ammunition excise taxes. These taxes, paid by the manufacturers, are dedicated solely for the conservation of wildlife, the habitats in which they thrive, hunter education and construction of new, or expansion of existing recreational target shooting ranges to promote safe and responsible firearms skills, handling and ownership. These 10 to 11 percent excise tax dollars collected for the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act are specifically designated to be used by state wildlife agencies for conservation and related purposes. Collectively, purchasers of firearms and ammunition, hunters and the industry are the greatest source of wildlife conservation funding.

In 2024, USFWS apportioned over $1.6 billion to the states for wildlife conservation projects, of which $944 million was sourced from Pittman-Robertson excise taxes paid by firearm and ammunition manufacturers.

Hydra Weaponry Now Offers GLOCK-Style Modular Magazine Wells

Hydra Weaponry Now Offers GLOCK®-Style Modular Magazine Wells

Expanding the Hydra Weaponry modular magwell line to include popular GLOCK® calibers increases options for GLOCK owners.

Hermon, Maine (July 2024) – Hydra Weaponry, Maine’s largest firearms employer, designers, and manufacturers of the truly modular MARCK-15 Hydra® Weapon System, is expanding its line of quick interchangeable magazine wells with the addition of the Hydra H21 and H17 modular magazine wells that accept GLOCK® magazines for 9mm, 10mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP.

For GLOCK owners and law enforcement officers, the new Hydra Interchangeable Magazine Wells offers a new horizon in compatibility allowing users to easily switch magazines from their carry or duty weapon to their rifle seamlessly. The Hydra MARCK-15’s modular construction allows users to easily change calibers without the use of tools. One of the unique aspects of the Hydra MARCK in comparison to any other modular rifle, is the ability to change the magazine well in the lower receiver (along with barrel and bolt head – caliber dependent).

Since their American introduction in 1985, GLOCK pistols revolutionized the firearms industry.

Over 65 percent of law enforcement agencies employ GLOCK service pistols. With the introduction of the new Hydra GLOCK-style magazine wells, both civilians and law enforcement can maximize the use of GLOCK magazines. For law enforcement officers, duty pistols and rifles can easily interchange magazines, and the Hydra MARCK-15 can easily adapt to any other necessary duty caliber, even in the field.

The Hydra H21 Modular Magazine Well fits GLOCK 10mm and .45 ACP magazines and the Hydra H17 Modular Magazine Well fits GLOCK 9mm and .40 S&W. They can also be used with high-capacity drum or stick magazines. MSRP is $275.00.
