Thompson/Center Arms, America’s Master Gunmaker, proudly announces the return of the all-new Triumph®, a modern evolution of one of the most trusted muzzleloaders ever built. Re-engineered with cutting-edge performance, a bold new design with an economical price point, the Triumph carries on Thompson/Center’s 60-year legacy of innovation, reliability, and accuracy in the field.

The Thompson/Center Triumph has set a new standard for magnum muzzleloaders. Featuring a fully Nitride-treated barrel, Cerakote-coated toggle-lock action, Speed Breech XT breech plug, and LimbSaver Recoil Pad, the Triumph is the latest in break-open muzzleloader technology. Triumph’s unique locking trigger guard design allows the pressure to be removed from the hinge pin (Patent #7,621,064), creating easy access to the breech plug for cleaning or priming/depriming, while delivering an unprecedented gas seal of the primer for reliable ignition. A fully nitride-treated barrel provides enhanced abrasion and corrosion resistance, delivering a low-friction surface for easier loading and cleaning. With only four moving parts, the Triumph provides durability and reliability through a lifetime of use.

“Hunters asked, and we listened,” said Gregg Ritz, President and CEO of Thompson/Center Arms. “The Triumph is back: stronger, sleeker, and more capable than ever. This platform has earned the trust of countless muzzleloader hunters, and our team is proud to reintroduce it as a cornerstone of the Thompson/Center lineup.”

Triumph will be available in two finishes and stock configurations, making it a versatile option for the whitetail woods, western plains, and everything in between. Backed by Thompson/Center’s tradition of accuracy, durability, and a limited lifetime warranty, the Triumph gives hunters a muzzleloader ready to perform, season after season. Read more

FN America, LLC is pleased to announce that it has delivered test and evaluation samples of two all-new weapon systems – LICC-IWS and LICC-AMG – along with ammunition as part of a long-term development contract with the Department of Defense’s Irregular Warfare Technical Support Directorate (IWTSD). FN also conducted new equipment training (NET) and armorer’s training for both systems to demonstrate maintenance at the unit level.

FN America developed the weapon systems with feedback from individual operators, based on the U.S. Government goal of providing overmatch against near-peer threats. The systems were recently assigned National Stock Numbers (NSN), simplifying the acquisition process.

The LICC-IWS program is comprised of the 6.5×43 LICC (Lightweight Intermediate Caliber Cartridge) ammunition, the LICC-IWS (Individual Weapon System) with FN® IPC (Improved Performance Carbine), purpose-built magazine and signature suppressor. The LICC-AMG is based on the success of the prototype LICC ammunition and LICC-IWS system and is comprised of the LICC-AMG (Assault Machine Gun) belt-fed machine gun, signature suppressor, family of common ammunition, and lightweight links. Multiple users will test the operational samples , providing critical feedback to aid FN and IWTSD in the final development of the systems.

“FN’s ultimate goal is to advance from development into production and field a final solution that provides operators a system that is easier to operate, more accurate and more effective than anything available today,” said Mark Cherpes, President and CEO for FN America. “After this test and evaluation phase, our plan is to take user feedback, fine-tune the systems and move into low-rate initial production.”
