Phoenix Weaponry Introduces Sights, Sight Mounts for Lever Actions

Flip-Up Sights For 1873 Winchester’s and a Red Dot Mount For Henry Rifles

Berthoud, CO: Phoenix Weaponry, a custom firearms manufacturer, announces they are launching their reproduction flip-up sights for 1873 Winchester® Model No. 62B rifles. Getting parts or even replacing an old flip-up sight is very tough and generally very expensive. Designed to be as close to the original as possible and has a cold blue finish.

For those that prefer a more modern approach to sights, Phoenix Weaponry also manufactures a red dot mount for Henry® rifles. This mount can be attached to Henry® models 4, 5, 6, and 12 rifles and accepts Burris® Fastfire 3, Holosun® 507K, Vortex® Venom, and Sightmark® Mini Shot. The skeletonized mount design adds minimal weight and can be anodized or Duracoated in most any color offered. Read more

NRA Announces Reincorporation Plan

The NRA announced a restructuring plan that positions us for the long-term and ensures our continued success as the nation’s leading advocate for constitutional freedom – free from the toxic political environment of New York.

The plan can be summed up quite simply: We are DUMPING New York, and we are pursuing plans to reincorporate the NRA in Texas.

To facilitate the strategic plan and restructuring, the NRA and one of its subsidiaries filed voluntary chapter 11 petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division. As you may know, chapter 11 proceedings are often utilized by businesses, nonprofits and organizations of all kinds to streamline legal and financial affairs.

Under the plan, the NRA will continue what we’ve always done – confronting anti-gun, anti-self-defense and anti-hunting activities and promoting constitutional advocacy that helps law-abiding Americans. Our work will continue as it always has. No major changes are expected to the NRA’s operations or workforce.

Importantly, our plans do not impact your membership at any level. Read more
