Some people say that revolvers are dead. Some people say that there’s no place for a revolver as a modern concealed carry gun. Those people are wrong.

[Bainbridge, GA] – Taurus USA is proud to introduce the Taurus 66 Combat, the ultimate modern fighting revolver! Medium frame revolvers chambered in 357 Magnum have long been regarded by experts as excellent choices for personal protection, and now the 66 Combat is the final word in fighting revolvers thanks to its incredible list of features:

7 shot capacity: The Taurus 66 Combat is based on Taurus’ successful model 66 revolver, which unlike other medium frame revolvers features a 7 shot 357 Magnum cylinder, giving shooters a 15% increase in capacity.

357 Magnum chambering: this allows the 66 Combat to chamber a variety of rounds, from full house 357 Magnums down to light target loaded 38 Special, and everything in between.

High visibility fiber optic front sight: the fiber optic front sight is perfect for fast target acquisition, and aligns well with the squared off rear sight channel for a crisp, yet fast, sight picture.

Optics-Ready: Additionally, the 66 Combat comes drilled and tapped for the Taurus Optics Ready Option plates, sold separately on www.ShopTaurus.com, so that owners can add optics to their pistol for even faster target acquisition and improved long range accuracy.

3-Inch Barrel: The 3-inch barrel selected for the Taurus 66 Combat balances two key elements, concealability and performance. 3 inches allows most 357 Magnum loads to generate sufficient velocity to achieve ideal terminal ballistics, while balancing the guns concealability by decreasing the overall length.

Combat Tuned Trigger: Saving the best for last is the Taurus 66 Combat’s trigger. This trigger takes the already excellent trigger on the Taurus medium frame revolvers and tunes it for double action only, eliminating the hammer spur for fast draw and creating a smooth-as-glass rolling trigger pull that delight any shooter.

The Taurus 66 Combat was crafted with input from serious revolver shooters, trainers, and end users. It is the definitive statement on what makes a revolver good and would be an excellent choice for concealed carry and home defense models, making it versatile and user-friendly for experienced and new users alike.

A great firearm comes from heritage and prestige, with a cultivated history sought after over other options. Nothing fits that definition better than the lever-action rifle. The design has been cemented into culture since its inception and requires few, if any, changes. Chiappa continues the tradition with the 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown, a firearm worth the heritage and a close look.

The 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown is a modern take on the old lever-action classic. Chambered in 45/70, it is a fully capable rifle that moves to add modern characteristics. Built with a 1:18 twist 16.5-inch barrel and a magazine tube capacity of 4+1, it is a heavy hitter that can easily follow up, shot after shot. The barrel is 5/8×24 threaded to attach muzzle devices, accept thread protectors, recoil mitigation devices, or suppressors.

The stock is skeletonized with an adjustable comb and outfitted with an attachment point for accessories or cartridge holders. An integrated adjustable cheek rest allows for precise comfort. The forend is made from overbuilt aluminum with M-LOK adaptability and features an over receiver rail for optics attachments. The lever is wrapped in black paracord for easy use and comfortable operation.

The 86 Wildlands Angle Ejection Takedown is finished in a matte blued style, adding a tactical look and style. Once fired, spent cases are ejected to the side, accommodating any optic. Read more

Wilson Combat is proud to release the 40th Anniversary Melvin Forbes Tribute NULA. This limited-edition rifle is a testament to Melvin Forbes’s mission to build lightweight, accurate firearms, celebrating four decades of innovative craftsmanship and the enduring legacy of Forbes’s design.

Forty years ago, Melvin Forbes revolutionized hunting rifles, giving us all one of the most innovative firearms of modern times: The NULA Model 20. Forbes dropped rifle weights to unheard of lows by pioneering the use of space-age composites. Not stopping at weight savings, he designed his rifles to an exacting level of precision, giving hunters unfailing accuracy they could depend on. For his work on the NULA, legendary writers like David E. Petzal have called Forbes “…one of the handful of men most responsible for the radical transformation of the American hunting rifle.”

The limited edition 40th Anniversary Melvin Forbes Tribute NULA is chambered for the versatile .284 Winchester, known for its flat trajectory and excellent long-range performance. It features a meticulously crafted tapered barrel with a 1-8.5 twist rate, a Timney Elite Hunter trigger with a smooth 2.75- to 3.25-pound trigger pull, and a redesigned one-piece bolt handle for smoother operation and improved ergonomics.

Following the NULA tradition, each rifle is furnished with an ultra-lightweight AG Composites carbon-fiber stock with reinforced receiver walls for increased strength. Read more
