GENESEO, ILL. – Springfield Armory® is proud to announce the release of two new variants of the Hellion™, offering enhanced ballistic performance with 18” and 20” barrel length options and unique features true to the original VHS-2 design.

Based on the internationally proven bullpup employed by the Croatian armed forces in demanding environments ranging from Iraq to Africa and beyond, the Springfield Armory Hellion offers American shooters a semi-automatic version of this highly capable and fully ambidextrous firearm.

While the original Hellion launched early last year featured a short 16” barrel designed to offer the most compact package possible, the newly released variants feature extended 18” and 20” barrels. The result is a 5.56mm that still offers the compact handling characteristics of a bullpup, but with enhanced velocity and downrange performance. Read more

Knoxville, Tennessee – In a dangerous situation professional and personal defense practitioners agree if you can only have one firearm, the ideal choice is a shotgun! A shotgun takes the lead above all other firearms in versatility, adaptability and overall effectiveness in close quarter engagements for home, survival or mobile defense. The choice of those who “know” will be Military Armament Corporation’s MAC 1014 Semi-Auto because of their reliability, durability and ease of use, and, MAC 1014s are priced to meet departmental budgets!

The MAC 1014 12-gauge features a steel receiver designed with a self-regulating gas piston system which allows it to cycle with shotshells from 1-ounce up to the heaviest 3-inch magnum loads. Gas not needed to cycle the action is vented through a unique system, thereby reducing recoil and allowing for quicker follow-up shots. A large, knurled charging handle ensures excellent traction even when wearing gloves. The MAC 1014’s serrated cartridge drop lever promotes no-fumble operation. The safety located behind the trigger, can quickly be moved from safe to fire without changing hand position.

The MAC 1014 has a 5 + 1 magazine tube which is compatible with Benelli™ Read more

Tampa, FL – B&T USA is excited to announce that due to continual requests by those familiar with the project, we have been persuaded to produce a limited number of integrally suppressed APC9K SD2 models complete with its scalable suppressor system. This variant was submitted for consideration during the United States Army Sub Compact Weapon (SCW) trials, with said branch ultimately selecting B&T USA’s APC9K and awarding it the SCW Contract.

“To win a US Government contract, you must submit a product that as closely meets their defined specifications as possible — not necessarily what you think the end user needs or even a product that is scalable to best suit its future needs — as was the case with the SD2; the advanced platform was not what the Army required in 2019, but one we anticipate it may in the future” said Chris Mudgett, Vice President of Marketing, B&T USA. “At less than 15-inches in overall length, the APC9K SD2 is the shortest integrally suppressed submachine gun currently available. It is optimized for low visibility carriage and discreet deployment; while delivering unsurpassed accuracy, controllability, and ergonomics. With its advanced scalable suppressor system, the SD2 is a solution for your future mission.” Read more

If you’re the type of hunter who hones your skills by shooting at varying distances throughout the year, the X-Bolt Speed LR from Browning is ready to impress. From the pop of lead hitting steel at over a thousand yards away to setting your crosshairs on a trophy buck, the Speed LR has the features and out-of-the-box accuracy to give you confidence in your shot.

Built on the most popular X-Bolt rifle ever, the Speed LR rifle takes the same winning features and adds a sporter contour barrel for increased long-range accuracy. Barrel fluting reduces the weight of the barrel, increases the exposed surface area of the barrel (reducing barrel heating), and offers a more rigid barrel with less weight. The barrel is also belled at the muzzle and features 5/8″-24 TPI suppressor-ready threads. This threading also accepts the Browning Recoil Hawg muzzle brake. The action is bedded in the stock to free-float the barrel and ensure consistent accuracy. The barreled action is protected by a Smoked Bronze Cerakote finish. Cerakote is a superior, non-reflective, and corrosion-resistant coating that is more durable than traditional bluing or bare stainless steel. Read more
