Accokeek, MD – This year, Stoeger Industries reaches a milestone that only a small club of firearm manufacturers can claim —100 years of operation. For 2024, Stoeger Industries celebrates its centennial with the introduction of the Model 3000 Signature shotgun.

Based on the company’s proven M3000 semi-auto chambered in 3-inch 12-gauge, pays homage to the 100th anniversary and legacy of fine guns and quality craftsmanship that have been an integral part of Stoeger’s firearm history since its founding in 1924. Blending classic styling with the contemporary design and performance found across the Stoeger M3000 shotgun series, the Signature distinguishes itself with an appeal to the eye and to the tradition of fine sporting arms.

The receiver, for example, is made of satin-finished nickel and features a striking fleur-de-lis engraving in the spirit of European bespoke shotgun design. In a nod to conventional use, the receiver is drilled and tapped for optic mounting. Inside, the Signature boasts an inertia-driven system that provides flawless cycling and clean operation. An enlarged, knurled bolt handle and bolt release ensures positive control in field environments, even when wearing gloves.

Accenting the nickel receiver is a polished blued 28-inch barrel sporting a stepped rib and fiber-optic front bead sight. The receiver aesthetics are further complimented by black controls, bolt, trigger guard, and lifter. Read more

Accokeek, MD – Single-action revolver fans understand the fun of running their favorite Old West six-shooter on the range. Now Uberti is giving classic revolver fans a new excuse to strap on vintage-style iron with the release of its new 1873 Hunter Revolvers.

Chambered in .45 LC and .44 Magnum, the 1873 Hunter models are based on Uberti’s popular 1873 Cattleman single-action revolver series. The difference is that the 1873 Hunter Revolvers come with a frame-mounted Picatinny rail. This is ideal for SSA enthusiasts who wish to hunt medium- and large-size game with the proven .45 LC or .44 Magnum cartridges but are not comfortable doing so with the traditional iron sight configuration.

With the inclusion of the Picatinny rail, shooters can now add modern optics to this American heritage revolver and enjoy point-of-aim, point-of-impact performance at typical hunting distances. The rail is suitable for mounting either a long eye relief low-power handgun scope or a compact red dot optic. The red dot option is also the perfect choice for recreational shooters whose eyes struggle with open sights, making the 1873 Hunter Revolvers as suitable for a day at the range as a day in the hunting fields.

Both 1873 Hunter Revolvers come with a 7.5-inch blued barrel, fluteless cylinder, classical color case frame, and an elegant walnut grip. These guns feature the longer Uberti 1860-style grip to better accommodate the shooter’s hand while wearing gloves. Each boasts a six-round capacity and a comfortable MSRP of $799. Read more
