NEWTOWN, Conn. – The National Shooting Sports Foundation® (NSSF®), the trade association for the firearms, ammunition, hunting and shooting sports industries, has praised the bipartisan introduction of H.R. 788, the Target and Marksmanship Training Support Act of 2017 in the U.S. House of Representatives, sponsored by Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-Calif).

“This legislation would provide state fish and game agencies more flexibility to use Pittman Robertson excise taxes dollars raised from the sale of firearms and ammunition to enhance existing public shooting ranges and to build new ones to meet the growing need for additional places for target shooters to participate in their sport,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF senior vice president and general counsel. “Public shooting ranges provide hunters a place to sight in rifles and shotguns before hunting seasons, for people to take firearm safety and hunter education courses and, for recreational target shooters to enjoy their sport.” Read more

Expect the perfect design for the perfect shot. The right fit of the gun is everything when you want to be a successful hunter or shooter. With that in mind, Blaser introduces the Intuition Series, designed stocks specifically for the lady hunter – the new F16 shotgun and the well-established R8 rifle.

Now, instead of trying to adjust your shooting position to the rifle or shotgun, your gun will easily and consistently slip into your shoulder and rest there comfortably. Taking into account the different anatomy of women, Blaser has developed a Monte Carlo stock, which allows the hunter to effortlessly mount a gun without a second thought. It simply becomes second nature. The lower position of the butt plate allows you to mount the gun to your shoulder, giving you a firm grip on the gun and reducing the felt recoil at the same time, ultimately making the shot more comfortable. Recoil management has been addressed by making the original F16 Microcell recoil pad even softer, ensuring better absorption and steady placement in the shoulder.

For the F16 Intuition, the engineers at Blaser took it a step further and decided to go for a higher drop at the comb and additional cast. The benefits are clear so the shooter can obtain the optimal shooting position. Shoulders and neck will be relaxed allowing better movement from any shooting position and a swifter acquisition of the target.

Both Intuition stocks are shorter, reducing the distance between the pistol grip and trigger as well as the distance between the butt plate and trigger. The pistol grip now boasts finer features to easily accommodate a smaller hand reducing the risk of flinching. Suggested retail for the F16 begins at $4,195 and the R8 $4,385. Read more
