City, State – The suppressor community is growing rapidly as the numerous benefits of shooting suppressed are being realized by the general shooting public. In most cases, suppressors are being adopted for the sound and recoil reduction benefits. The surrounding communities also benefit when shooting ranges and shooters are operating under a significant sound reduction.

Deer hunters also stand to benefit from shooting suppressed. How many hunters carry and use hearing protection in the field? When a buck steps into a clearing and every second counts, hearing protection is the last thing we remember. Shooting suppressed reduces the sound significantly, helping to protect permanent hearing damage. Read more

Kansas City, KS – CZ-USA’s new CZ 557 American is a hunter’s dream rifle: accurate, durable, and extremely functional. A great choice for a young hunter or a seasoned veteran, the CZ 557 American offers custom features at an over-the-counter price.

The CZ 557 American is part of CZ’s newest centerfire platform, the 557. This line of rifles represents a departure from the Mauser-style bolt found on CZ 550 models. Instead, the 557 bolt actions feature a short extractor and plunger-style ejector for a smooth operation of the bolt and enhanced ejection of spent brass.

The short extractor or “push feed” system also makes it easier to single load the rifle. Many shooters prefer single loading for their range work, while hunters in a hurry often need to get that one cartridge in the chamber-fast.

The CZ 557 American features a 24-inch, cold-hammer forged and lapped barrel. The longer barrel helps squeeze out more feet per second than shorter 16- and 20-inch barrels, especially for the hotter rounds like the 6.5 Creedmoor and the 7mm-08 Rem (both available in the short action 557 American line).

Sheridan, WY – Weatherby is excited to announce two new Mark V rifles the Backcountry and Backcountry Ti in combination with an all new Weatherby magnum cartridge, the 6.5 Weatherby RPM cartridge.

BELGRADE, MT— Imagine owning, shooting and hunting with a rifle that is easy to operate, can be adjusted to fit a wide range of body sizes, is based on a well-known and proven platform, and shoots standard big game calibers most hunters are familiar with.

Kansas City, KS – CZ-USA built the new CZ Quail Over and Under shotgun at the request of Pheasants Forever (PF) – one of America’s premier conservation groups–and the Quail is PF’s 2019 Youth Gun of the Year.

Nearly identical to the popular CZ Drake, the CZ Quail is different in that it has a slightly shorter length of pull at 13 ¾-inches, making it more comfortable to carry and use for youth shooters and smaller-statured hunters. CZ-USA’s deletion on the midrib also trimmed off a noticeable amount of weight from the muzzle end of this O/U, so the shotgun is easier to shoulder and a bit quicker to swing on target.

The Quail also boasts a single trigger and selectable barrels. Read more
