<h3 class="wp-block-heading">457 VPT MTR</h3>



<p>Always a favorite in our rimfire line, the Varmint Precision Trainer gets a boost in accuracy with the addition of a barrel borrowed from the Match Target Rifle. With a match chamber and a stiff 16.2-inch heavy barrel, it’s threaded 1/2&#215;28 to allow easy installation of a suppressor or muzzle device. New for 2022, the Manners carbon fiber stock now features an adjustable cheekpiece. The forend is recessed, drilled, and threaded for use with an Arca rail.</p>

It might be a classic, but this knife is built to perform in the modern world.</p>

<p>Holosun brings a new optic to market in the AEMS Core. The AEMS Core is a small package that provides Core features at a competitive price point. The AEMS Core is constructed with a cast aluminum housing offering excellent protection and durability. It features a crisp 2 MOA dot with 12 brightness settings, 10 daylight and 2 night vision-compatible, that are easily controlled by buttons located on the left side of the housing opposing a 2023 battery compartment. Battery life is up to 50,000 hours of continuous operation at a medium setting and power is conserved using Shake Awake, which puts the optic to sleep and reactivates it when motion is detected. It comes with a 1/3 co-witness mount to perform across all these various setups.</p>

<p>DARC stands for Discrete Advanced Reflex Concealment and packs superior clarity, precision, and durability in a micro pistol red dot sight. The DARC’s 1X magnification, scratch-resistant, hydrophobic coated glass lens features an Advanced LED Technol lighting system with a 3 MOA dot for precise aiming. The micro pistol dot automatically adjusts to the surrounding light levels and also offers a manual override for individual preferences, and is also night vision compatible with two NV settings.</p>



<p>The DARC’s lightweight aluminum housing with matte black finish is tough enough to withstand day-to-day use. The DARC also has ten brightness settings and two-night vision settings, both with a 12-hour auto-shutoff to save on the always-on battery life (expect two to three years average use with four years dark storage).</p>



<p>The DARC fits directly in the factory slide cuts for the Springfield Hellcat, SIG P365, and the Glock 43/48 MOS without needing an adapter plate.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">CZ Bren 2 MS Carbine</h3>



<p>Based on the select-fire Bren 2, this handy rifle operates via a short-stroke gas piston system with a return spring contained within the action itself. Without the need for a buffer tube, it features a folding, adjustable stock. At 35.6 inches long, the folding stock brings its length down to just 28 inches — making it much easier to transport or store.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">DRD Tactical</h2>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">APTUS</h2>



<p>The Aptus uses DRD Tactical’s patented internal recoil system that eliminates standard buffer tubes and springs associated with most AR style rifles. This feature allows it to be fired with the stock folded and maintain in the ready for close quarter battle situations. Discreet and designed for compact portability, it can go from box-to-built in 60 seconds without the use of tools.

</div>


<p>The Nomad Trigger offers one-of-a-kind, patented Pivot Technology to provide users with the most forgiving and precise trigger on the market. This new technology allows the trigger to adjust freely to the shooter&#8217;s natural position and minimize error through each individual trigger pull. The Nomad Trigger is engineered to move and index correctly every time, allowing the firearm to remain stable through a variety of shooting positions and trigger pulls. In short, the trigger freely adjusts left-to-right and the shoe itself rotates to the natural position of the shooter rather than the other way around. Besides the forgiving pivoting nature of the trigger, users will enjoy a very crisp 3-pound pull, a short .017-inch reset and a lifetime warranty.</p>



<p>The housing and trigger are both of anodized 7075 aluminum with 440c stainless steel for key internal components, and S7 tool steel for maximum durability of the hammer itself.&nbsp; These components are machined to medical grade fit and finish to ensure a smooth, crisp, and consistent pull.</p>

<p>Savage Arms is adding 6.5 PRC to its line of 110 Precision rifles. The new chambering provides outstanding short-magnum potential from an adaptable rifle platform that will be chambered in both right and left-hand configurations.</p>



<p>“The 6.5 PRC was originally designed as a long-range hunting round,” said Jessica Treglia, Sr. Brand Manager at Savage Arms. “This is essentially a magnum version of the 6.5 Creedmoor—but much of what makes the 6.5 PRC cartridge great for hunting makes it a contender on the competition side, too. 6.5mm bullets are known for their exceptional ballistic coefficients and the 6.5 PRC adds more velocity from its short-magnum design. They are performing really well and are especially capable in adverse conditions.”</p>



<p>The 110 Precision line is built around Savage’s 110 action. With a custom LSS stock designed by the accuracy experts at Modular Driven Technologies (MDT), the 110 Precision is fully customizable. From the adjustable comb height and length of pull to the capabilities of its AccuTriger, this aluminum-framed rifle is built for exacting performance.</p>



<p>Features:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>24-inch barrel</li>



<li>Savage factory blueprinted action</li>



<li>Matte black carbon steel heavy barrel, threaded 5/8-24</li>



<li>MDT LSS XL Chassis with FDE Cerakote</li>



<li>Exclusive skeletonized stock with fully adjustable comb height and length-of-pull</li>



<li>1.5 to 4-pound user adjustable AccuTrigger</li>



<li>20-MOA, one–piece EGW rail</li>



<li>AICS magazine</li>



<li>BA Muzzle brake</li>
</ul>

<p>Andro Corp., a Florida-based designer and manufacturer of quality AR platforms, uppers, lowers, and AR parts, announce the popular ACI gold polished titanium nitride hard coat BCG for AR15/M16’s is back in stock.</p>



<p>The gold polish adds more to the ACI BCG than just gun bling; it actually lengthens the life of the TiN nitride BCG by providing additional lubricity while combating friction. ACI’s full-auto profiled AR15/M16 TiN BCG is machined from 8620 alloy, heat-treated, and ultrasonically cleaned. The hard chrome bore is physical vapor deposition (PVD) coated gold and polished. ACI’s gold-polished BCG is meant to accept the punishment of continuous use in any environment while maintaining optimal performance.</p>



<p>Additionally, the 9310 alloy bolt, machined 4140 tool steel alloy extractor, 4130 chromoly steel alloy gas key, and 4340 chromoly steel alloy camp pin are all PVD coated and polished for additional lubricity and corrosion resistance.</p>



<p>ACI’s AR15/M16 TiN Gold Polished BCG is HP proof tested without evidence of failure 100 percent by using a high-pressure M197 or SAAMI commercial equivalent. MPI testing occurs after the successful HP proof test, using the ASTM E1444 inspection standard five-turn magnetizing coil.</p>



<p>ACI’s AR15/M16 TiN nitride BCG is 100 percent made in the USA and fully backed by ACI’s Lifetime Warranty.</p>

The APC9 Pro K can be ordered with a corresponding lower to accept B&amp;T, Glock, SIG 320, Walther P99 or HKSPF9 magazines.</p>

CMMG’s FourSix is built on the company’s BANSHEE, Mk4 platform which features AR-15 controls and modularity. Best of all, the patented CMMG 40RD 4.6x30mm magazine will seat into a standard AR-15 magwell, which means users can pair their existing AR-15 lower receiver with a CMMG FourSix upper receiver and magazine.</p>

<p>The OG Honey Badger was developed at AAC by previous owner and Q founder Kevin Brittingham and his R&amp;D team at the request of an elite U.S. Special Operations group looking to replace their MP5-SD’s with an upgraded platform. Requirements included the ability to shoot a rifle caliber round while maintaining low visibility and excellent signature suppression. Developed in conjunction with 300 AAC Blackout, the Honey Badger was born, exceeded expectations, but never made it to the commercial market.</p>



<p>Enter the Honey Badger SD by Q. At first glance, this Honey Badger appears to be the same as the original. Q focused on taking the iconic Badger to the next level and improved upon every technical aspect of the first-generation design. From the proprietary, under-handguard suppressor, custom gas system, custom AR trigger, and its telescoping stock – HB 2.0 does not disappoint.</p>



<p>Want a Honey Badger, but don’t want to deal with the hassle of a two-stamp gun? Q offers the Honey Badger SBR with a short handguard and no can making it 6 inches shorter, overall, as shown below.</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Action:</strong> Semi-Auto</li>



<li><strong>Caliber: </strong>300 BLK</li>

Not only can it adjust in height, it can also maneuver forward and backwards and side to side on a 360-degree radius. Modular capabilities also allow the shooter to quickly detach the top mini tripod and go prone on another surface.</p>
