Lonoke, Arkansas – May 16, 2022 – Remington Ammunition along with sister brand Federal Ammunition is proudly sending a check of $100,000 to support crisis relief efforts in the war-torn country of Ukraine. A t-shirt campaign to support Ukrainian refugees generated a great response, with proceeds from the sales reaching the $100K milestone in less than two months.

“This campaign and the tremendous response exceeded our expectations, forcing several re-orders of the t-shirts,” said Jason Vanderbrink, President of Remington, Federal, CCI, and Speer Ammunition. “I’m so proud of our loyal customers for being willing to pitch in and support the people of Ukraine who are suffering because of the horrors of war. Our ammo brands are proud to do our part.”

The t-shirts, available at www.remington.com/merchandise/apparel/ and www.federalpremium.com/merchandise/apparel/ features the call out from Ukraine’s president needing ammunition to assist in their country’s defense.

The t-shirts continue to receive a tremendous amount of support and are selling out quickly. If the desired shirt sells out, consumers can sign up to receive a notification of when the t-shirt has been restocked.

The $100,000 donation will go to support the humanitarian relief efforts through Ukraine Crisis Relief Fund – GlobalGiving. Remington, along with sister ammunition brands CCI, Speer, and Federal, also donated a total of one million rounds to the Ukraine armed forces. Read more

Federal Ammunition Turns 100

North American Arms is pleased to announce that today (04/26) it became an employee-owned company. After a 30-year run as president/owner of this manufacturer of “Convenient, Reliable, Effective” mini-revolvers and small semiautomatic pistols, Sandy Chisholm has sold the company to an Employee Stock Ownership Trust which, over the course of the next “several” years, will annually distribute equity ownership pieces of the company to the employees of NAA, at no cost to the employees. This is intended to be a retirement and motivational vehicle.

Chisholm explained that he chose this means of exit for several reasons. First was his interest in sharing the success of his small business with the employees who were responsible for building it. “As many people know, I’ve been a very remote owner since I purchased the business in 1992. I have lived in both suburban Philadelphia and now Naples FL, which is some distance from the factory’s location in Provo, UT. While I’ve made literally 100s of trips over the years to visit the facility and my employees, I’ve always depended heavily on those at the factory to operate the business. Apart from financial support and enthusiastic encouragement, my contributions have been very modest”.

Chisholm also acknowledged his interest in maintaining the business’s independence and stability in the Provo community. “Yes, I’ve had several unsolicited “expressions of interest” from other manufacturers in the firearms industry. NAA dominates its small niche for concealed carry firearms and enjoys an over-sized brand and reputation for quality and customer service that would burnish any other manufacturer’s reputation. Unfortunately, that would almost certainly lead to a relocation of this business and the loss of jobs for all those who I want to protect and reward”, he added. “This route assures that stability”.

Whigham, GA – For the absolute tightest patterns, use Trulock® Federal Heavyweight TSS # 9 choke combined with the Federal® Heavyweight TSS 9 shotshell. The Trulock® Federal® Heavyweight TSS # 9 choke is made from high strength, heat treated 17/4 stainless steel with a black oxide finish. This choke has been optimized using hundreds of rounds of Federal Heavyweight TSS # 9 shell to give nominally 400 pellets in a 10 inch circle at 40 yards.

Trulock® Federal Heavyweight TSS #9 Choke and Federal Heavyweight TSS #9 Shotshell 10 inch pattern at 40 yards

Trulock® strongly recommends turkey hunters pattern their gun to make sure they know how the point of impact and the point of aim compare. These patterns are so tight you can miss the bird unless you KNOW where the gun impacts on the target.
