BUENA VISTA, GA – Armageddon Gear’s original Big Game Chest Rig was built with hunters in mind, simple, tough, and practical. It featured two dump pockets designed for tags, wind checkers, rangefinders, gloves, or whatever else the day demanded. And for a long time, that setup did exactly what it was supposed to do. But as more hunters put miles on it, one request kept coming back: “I love this rig… I just need a place for my pistol.” Instead of forcing a compromise or bolting on something awkward, Armageddon Gear did what they always do, went back to the drawing board and built a purpose-driven solution. That solution is the Gun Slinger Chest Rig, offered alongside the original Big Game Chest Rig for hunters who want sidearm carry built in from the start.

The Gun Slinger is constructed primarily from Armageddon Gear’s signature double-waxed canvas, chosen for its durability, weather resistance, and quiet performance in the field. Webbing straps keep the rig secure and comfortable without excess bulk, while the binocular compartment uses a magnetic closure for fast, silent access when seconds count. On the carry side, the Gun Slinger features a dedicated pistol holster, positioned for balance and accessibility, and opposite it sits a single dump pocket perfect for essentials without overcrowding the rig.

As the United States of America nears its 250th anniversary, Henry Repeating Arms is announcing the release of The Spirit of ’76 Semiquincentennial Edition, a museum-grade, limited-edition rifle honoring the nation’s founding and the ideals that shaped it. Limited to just 250 rifles, this exclusive offering stands among the most refined and historically significant firearms ever produced by the company.

The rifle is built on the legendary New Original Henry platform, a line-for-line reproduction of the world’s first lever-action rifle patented by Benjamin Tyler Henry in 1860, save for the modifications needed to accommodate the more modern .44-40 WCF cartridge it’s chambered for.

At the heart of the rifle is a nickel-plated brass receiver, fully engraved and selectively highlighted in 24-karat gold, serving as a canvas for a sweeping visual narrative of the American Revolution. The engravings depict pivotal moments and enduring symbols of independence, including Revolutionary War battlefield scenes, Independence Hall, the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the Betsy Ross flag, a majestic bald eagle, and an engraved rendering of the battle sword carried by George Washington.

The rifle is fitted with a polished blued steel one-piece octagon barrel and 13-round magazine tube, and features a buttstock crafted from hand-selected rosewood, personally chosen by Henry Repeating Arms Founder and CEO Anthony Imperato for its richness and character. Completing the rifle is a nickel-plated brass crescent buttplate with a period-correct trapdoor, underscoring the historical authenticity of the design.

“This extraordinary country that we are so privileged to live and do business in was founded by ordinary people with an unshakable belief in their God-given right to freedom,” said Imperato. “With this rifle, we wanted to create something that honors their courage and conviction. Something worthy of being preserved, passed down, and remembered long after this anniversary has passed.”

Each rifle is individually serialized from USA250TH001 to USA250TH250 and is only available factory-direct for $4,115.
