Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) announced today that the closing of its acquisition of substantially all of the Marlin Firearms assets occurred on Monday, November 23. The agreement to purchase these assets emanated from the Remington Outdoor Company, Inc. bankruptcy and was approved by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Alabama on September 30, 2020. The purchase price of approximately $28.3 million was paid with available cash on hand.
Chief Executive Officer Christopher J. Killoy noted the excitement that has permeated the firearms industry in anticipation of the confluence of these two iconic firearms brands, “Since we announced the agreement to purchase Marlin in September, we have heard from countless members of the firearms community – consumers, retailers, distributors, writers, and collectors – who are delighted that legendary Marlin rifles are now part of the Ruger product family. We are excited to start moving these assets to our Ruger facilities and setting up the manufacturing cells that will produce Marlin rifles for years to come. We look forward to re-introducing Marlin rifles in the latter half of 2021.”

IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE: M&P SHIELD® EZ® PISTOL
Smith & Wesson® Issues Important Safety Recall Notice for certain M&P Shield EZ Pistols manufactured between March 1, 2020 and October 31, 2020.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. – Smith & Wesson Inc. announced today that the Company has identified two M&P Shield EZ Pistols on which the hammers manufactured by our supplier were cracked. In those firearms, the hammer failed to fully engage the sear, causing the round to fire, cycling the slide, and potentially resulting in multiple discharges without depressing the trigger. In all cases, the firearm will NOT fire unless the grip safety is depressed. While this condition has been found only in two hammers, and our investigation suggests that these two incidents are very isolated, any unintended discharge of a firearm has the potential to cause injury. Therefore, we have established this Safety Recall as a precautionary measure to ensure that all M&P Shield EZ Pistols in service meet our design specifications, as any unintended discharge of a firearm has the potential to cause injury. This notice applies ONLY to M&P Shield EZ pistols (including Performance Center® models) manufactured between March 1, 2020 and October 31, 2020, and only to a small percentage of that population. It does NOT apply to all SHIELD™ pistols.
Stop using your M&P Shield EZ pistol until you determine whether it is included in this safety recall, and if so, until it has been inspected and repaired by Smith & Wesson, if necessary.
We are asking consumers of all M&P®9 Shield EZ, and M&P380 Shield EZ, including Performance Center models, to go to MPShieldEZrecall.com and input their serial number, or call 888-871-7114, to determine whether the hammer of their M&P Shield EZ Pistol was from a manufacturing lot that was potentially affected. This notice applies ONLY to certain M&P Shield EZ model pistols, and not all M&P Shield pistols.
If your M&P Shield EZ Pistol is included in this recall, as determined by the website link or telephone number above, please follow the instructions on the website link, or call 888-871-7114 and we will arrange for the return of your firearm to Smith & Wesson for inspection. After inspection, if the hammer from your firearm is affected, it will be replaced at no cost to you. We expect that this entire process will take no longer than 10 business days, and your pistol will be returned as quickly and efficiently as possible. All shipping and replacement costs will be covered by Smith & Wesson. Read more

Broomfield, CO: RECOIL – get ready to be SHOT!
ALLEN Company has introduced two new Shooting Rests that help even the most timid of shooters, overcome recoil flinch.
The ShotTrax and ShotRock shooting rests were formulated after conducting extensive consumer focus groups across the nation.

ShotTrax and ShotRock, both give you a “bullet proof” option targeted right at the price levels consumers are expecting to pay. Read more

WESTFIELD, Massachusetts –– Savage Arms is proud to announce that RENEGAUGE is the Editor’s Choice for Wildfowl Magazine in 2020. Wildfowl’s Editor’s Choice award is the latest in a growing list of accolades earned by the RENEGAUGE family of American made semiautomatic shotguns.
“RENEGAUGE was built to the meet the needs of American sportsmen and women,” Jessica Treglia, Sr. Brand Manager at Savage Arms, said. “Hunters demand guns that run reliably, and the readers of Wildfowl know why—conditions can be demanding. Wildfowl’s Editor’s Choice award shows that RENEGAUGE is up to the challenges wingshooters may face.”
“The big tell?” Wildfowl Editor Skip Knowles wrote in the announcement. “We watched over a dozen people who have never held one before shoot this gun well long before it came to market. A monster of innovation, the big story with this 2020 stunner is the shotgun’s D.R.I.V. dual regulating in-line valve gas system. This system vents excess gas before driving the bolt, ejection you can depend on no matter the size of the load or outside conditions.
“Also, because gas is vented, felt recoil is greatly reduced so it is a 3-inch chamber auto loader that doesn’t make the shooter scream,” Knowles added. “Adjustments, including the length of pull and drop at the heel make fitting a breeze.” Read more
