Building off of the Incredible Success of the Performance Duty Pistol (PDP), Walther is proud to announce it’s now available in 5” versions for both Full Size and Compact models.

Walther, a company, defined by over a century of engineering passion, precision workmanship, and innovation, has entered a new manufacturing era with its flagship elite handgun. The PDP has been painstakingly designed by Walther to perform no matter what so the shooter can focus on being READY.

With revolutionary Red Dot Ergonomics engineered into the pistol, the PDP platform has been designed around making the switch to the popular red-dot sight system easier for the new RDS shooter and faster for the RDS veterans. The SuperTerrain serrations are uniquely shaped to protrude above the surface of the slide, allowing for quicker and more responsive hands-on engagement with the pistol. Walther’s brand new Performance Duty Trigger shortens the length of travel and increases the tactile definition of the trigger break making the best striker-fired trigger on the market even better. The PDP is the most modular and versatile pistol ever designed by Walther, and every PDP model comes red dot READY. Read more

ACCOKEEK, MD – French gun maker Chapuis delivers high performance in the field while boasting exquisite aesthetics with the Faisan Classic and Artisan over-and-under shotguns. The two shotguns infuse classic lines with modern technology to deliver a unique look of prestige. Chambered in 12, 20 and 28 gauge, both shotgun models are now available to dealers and consumers.

“Pheasant hunting is one of the time-honored traditions of gentleman hunting,” said Chapuis Product Manager Tom Leoni. “Faisan is French for ‘pheasant,’ and these two shotguns honor the classical beauty associated with upland shotguns from the days of yore along with providing great in-field performance with modern technology. Anyone who goes afield with a Faisan will surely be proud to show it to others.”

Built from a single block of forged steel, the action of the Faisan shotguns provides maximum resistance and durability. The action’s low profile also allows the support hand to be very close to the bore axis for instinctive pointability. Modern updates such as an automatic safety, ejectors and the convenience of current chokes round out the features of both guns. Read more

CODY, Wyo. — The authority in ethical long-range hunting — The Best of the West (BOTW) — has now changed the muzzleloader market forever with its new Signature Series Long Range Muzzleloaders. Available in .45 and .50 caliber, the new Best of the West muzzleloaders are tested and proven to shoot between .5 and 1 MOA at an amazing 550 yards to ensure a true long-range advantage at well beyond this range.

The Best of the West long-range muzzleloader features a side-discharge brake that directs the bulk of smoke away from the line of sight while significantly reducing recoil. The dual side port brake and specifically designed crown, along with the included funnel, make pouring loose powder cleaner and more efficient.

The muzzleloaders use The Best of the West’s Express Priming System, which is a patent-pending design that can store and feed three primed inserts from a magazine, much like a centerfire rifle. The non-saboted bullets have an advertised ballistic coefficient of .453 and maintain over 1,000 foot-pounds of energy at 800 yards. The result is dramatically better accuracy at longer distances over traditional muzzleloaders. Read more
