Big Daddy Unlimited Offers M781 40MM “Chalk” Rounds, Grenade Launchers

Citizens can legally purchase and own grenade launchers, 40mm “chalk rounds,” and specialty ammo.

Gainesville, FL – Big Daddy Unlimited is proud to announce it now sells grenade launchers, barrels, and 40mm rounds to private citizens through Big Daddy Ordnance (BDO).

The M781 “chalk round” is a 40x46mm round designed to mimic the flight path of the M433 High-Explosive Dual-Purpose round.

“Bringing the M781s to market through Big Daddy Ordnance represents a decisive change in how 40mm ammunition is distributed for the civilian market,” said Sean Lindley, Government & International Sales Director. “Previously, ammunition only arrived on the civilian market from military overruns.”

Despite supply-chain-related issues for .38 S&W blanks, Big Daddy Unlimited has been able to leverage its position to have new production rounds manufactured. The goal is for Big Daddy Unlimited to always have M781s and other specialty munitions including 37mm and 40mm in stock and ready to ship to customers. In addition to specialty rounds, Big Daddy Unlimited sells destructive devices including grenade launchers and barrels as well as “less-lethal” ammunition to civilians and law enforcement. Read more

HEVI-Shot Introduces New HEVI-Hammer Bismuth-Steel Upland Load

SWEET HOME, Oregon –– HEVI-Shot is proud to announce new HEVI-Hammer Upland loads. New for 2021, HEVI-Shot is offering 12- and 20- gauge options in shot size No. 5, or 7 shot to cover all the needs of hunters targeting large and medium upland game. HEVI-Hammer loads are manufactured using 15-percent high density bismuth (9.64 g/cc) and 85-percent precision steel. That small but mighty leading layer of bismuth over steel delivers nearly 50-percent more down range energy than pellets consisting of all steel at 40 yards.

“We know HEVI-Hammer Upland will help hunters achieve more success in the field,” said Scott Turner, HEVI-Shot’s Product Line Manager. “Upland game is such a beloved and traditional sport. The camaraderie of the hunting with others, watching sporting dogs do what they do best, and to enjoy hiking around, not having to sit in silence are all things upland hunters love about their sport. And we at HEVI-Shot love it too.”

Because HEVI-Hammer pellets feature a layer of 9.6 g/cc Bismuth, hunters can generally shoot one shot size smaller than steel for the same lethality, but with a much higher pellet count for increased probability of contact. New HEVI-Hammer loads are superior nontoxic shotshells for areas where lead is prohibited or for the environmentally conscious hunter. The bismuth-enhanced steel loads provided hunters with an option that had more velocity and more power than just standard steel shot yet is the same size as steel respectively. Read more

New for 2021, HEVI-Shot is offering 12- and 20- gauge options shot size No. 7 shot for hunters targeting smaller upland game birds such as dove.

“At HEVI-Shot, we have always been about innovation and density. Density is the secret sauce. It leads to tighter patterns, higher speeds, and more downrange devastation,” said Scott Turner, HEVI-Shot’s Product Line Manager. “Our customers spoke up and we listened. They wanted a highly effective product that was non-toxic to use in areas that restrict the use of lead.”

New HEVI-Hammer loads are superior nontoxic shotshells for areas where lead is prohibited or for the environmentally conscious hunter.
