Bergara Now Shipping HMR Pro Rifles

Lawrenceville, GA – Bergara has officially begun shipping its hot new HMR Pro Rifle to the trade.  After the company introducing the new model at the 2018 SHOT Show in Las Vegas, customers and dealers have been anxiously awaiting their arrival.  Nate Treadaway, CEO of BPI Outdoors stated, “In my 19 years of working in the industry, I have never been questioned so frequently about the arrival date of a new product, and I absolutely love seeing that enthusiasm!”   Treadaway continues, “I believe that the rifle fills a much needed niche for high-performance at a reasonable price point and the initial excitement certainly seems to substantiate this.”

 

The new Premier Series HMR Pro is essentially an upgraded “pro level” version of the B-14 Series HMR. Both rifles share the same injection molded, internal aluminum chassis stock, giving them a similar look and functional appeal, but that’s really where the similarities end, as the Premier HMR Pro has the many Premier Series component upgrades that the B-14 Series HMR doesn’t offer.

 

These upgrades include our new stainless steel Bergara Premier Action, matched with a 416 stainless steel Bergara Barrel, both hand painted in Cerakote™ for extra protection. Our action incorporates a floating bolt head design, as well as a quick detach firing pin access, allowing the shooter to pull the entire firing pin mechanism with only a 1?4 turn. It accepts Remington 700 compatible bases using 8×40 screws. Standard AICS Magazines are also compatible. Also standard is a TriggerTech™ trigger, featuring Frictionless Release Technology™.

Hatsan Break Barrel Repeater Shown at IWA

Bentonville, AR— Last year, Hatsan introduced the world’s first 14-shot under-lever with the release of its Proxima. But 2018 will usher in something else to the Hatsan line-up – a repeating break barrel duly named SpeedFire.

The SpeedFire is unique to Hatsan’s catalog with its multi-shot magazine and automatic loading mechanism.  With just a single motion, Hatsan’s EZ-Load Action System quickly cocks and loads the gun for up to 12 shots of rapid-fire. For those that prefer open sights, the magazine housing doubles as an adjustable rear sight, and the front sight folds up from its protected storage position – each equipped with TruGlo fibers.

The SpeedFire’s new lightweight barrel is completely shrouded, with an integrated sound moderator for downrange noise reduction. It also features an optics riser rail for both Picatinny and 11mm dovetail mount compatibility, with ample room to put your scope right where you want it. With just the push of a button, the Rapid Performance Mag (RPM) magazine’s spring-loaded receptacle pushes it up out of place, making it easy to remove and exchange with the next full magazine.  Equipped with Hatsan’s signature SAS (Shock Absorber System) and Quattro 2-stage adjustable trigger, it will be hard to beat at an MSRP of $199.99.

U.S. District Court Denies Mass. AG’s Motion to Dismiss Suit

U.S. District Court Denies Mass. A. G. Healey’s Motion to Dismiss Suit against Overreaching ‘Enforcement Notice’

NEWTOWN, Conn. – A U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts judge has denied state Attorney General Maura Healey’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit brought by four federally-licensed Massachusetts firearms retailers and the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the trade association for the firearms and ammunition industry, challenging the overreaching “Enforcement Notice” issued by her office in 2016 that deprived the retailers of their due process protections. The suit, which seeks declaratory relief and a permanent injunction enjoining enforcement, can now move forward.

The retailers, all NSSF members, are Pullman Arms Inc. of Worcester, Guns and Gear, LLC of Agawam, Paper City Firearms of Holyoke, and Grrr Gear of Orange.

“Attorney General Healy overstepped her authority when she issued the ‘enforcement notice’ banning certain firearms that have been lawfully sold in the state since at least 1998. Firearms retailers in Massachusetts were left to determine the meaning or scope of the Attorney General’s Enforcement Notice and subsequent explanations,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF senior vice president and general counsel. “Because criminal penalties can result due to Attorney General Healey’s unilateral reinterpretation of a state statute done without administrative process or input from affected parties, her office exceeded its lawful authority and retailers were deprived of their due process protections under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments.” Read more
