Designed with simplicity, durability, and affordability, the purpose-driven Slugger and Slugger Tact are tailored to meet the demands of shooters looking for dependable performance in home defense or sporting applications. Whether protecting what matters most or looking for a field-ready companion, the Slugger series delivers function without compromise.

The Slugger is built for both security and sporting use. Chambered in 12 gauge with a 3″ magnum chamber and an 18″ barrel with a fixed cylinder choke, the Slugger is engineered for maximum versatility with both shot and slugs. The oxidation-resistant chrome-plated steel barrel is proof-tested at the factory to ensure maximum durability, and its alloy receiver is built to withstand harsh use in real-world conditions. A rugged synthetic stock and forend, soft rubber buttpad, and fixed blade front sight round out a configuration ready for the field, the range, or the home.

For those seeking a tactical edge, the Slugger Tact offers all the core strengths of the original Slugger with purpose-driven enhancements. It includes a rubberized ergonomic pistol grip for superior control, a 5-shell holder integrated into the buttstock for rapid reloads, and a Picatinny rail on the forend for mounting optics or lights. Like its sibling, the Tact features an 18″ chrome-plated, proof-tested barrel, a 3″ magnum chamber, and a rugged alloy receiver. With its soft rubber buttpad and fixed blade front sight, the Slugger Tact is suited for close-quarters engagements and fast target acquisition.

Both shotguns feature a 5+1 capacity tube magazine, manual cross-button trigger safety, mounted sling studs for carry flexibility, and overall lengths of 38″. Weighing in at 6.4 lbs (Slugger) and 6.5 lbs (Slugger Tact), each shotgun is lightweight enough for fast maneuvering, yet tough enough to take a beating. Escort designed every component with a purpose—no frills, just proven materials and a platform that gets the job done. Read more

The roles of firearms are well-defined in modern shooting sports. Often, firearms come with a specific and set purpose, with little room for flexibility. Specific shotguns are designed and built around a task at hand, and while they do jump categories, they rarely succeed with exceptionalism. Charles Daly aims to change that notion and has developed the Triple Threat, a three-barreled shotgun capable of handling a broad and diverse range of tasks with grace and awe.

Each Triple Threat is a three-barreled shotgun capable of delivering the right type of shot at the right kind of target. Manufactured for use with 3-inch or smaller shells, the Triple Threat comes in 12-gauge, 20-gauge, 28-gauge, or 410. The Triple Threat is a three-barreled 12-gauge shotgun with removable Remington threaded chokes. Each Triple Threat is delivered with C, IC, M, IM, and F chokes for various practical applications and uses.

The 18.5-inch steel barrel is supported by a break-action design for ease of use and fast reloading. Manual safety measures protect the firearm from accidental discharge when not in use or in the field. Despite the three individual barrels, the Triple Threat measures 35.5 inches overall and weighs only 8.2 lbs. Read more

(Rogers, Ark.) – Gamo USA’s high-tech line of Swarm multi-shot breakbarrel rifles just got a new big brother, and this one is bigger and punches harder than the rest of the family. Customers have called for it for years, and now a .25 caliber Swarm Magnum Pro is available to the public. The new Swarm Magnum Pro .25 offers smooth performance, pinpoint accuracy and an outstanding shooting experience. The magazine holds eight pellets, so like all Swarm models, all you have to do is break the barrel and shoot. GAMO’s revolutionary horizontal, inertia-fed magazine integration makes it lighter and low profile. The magazine indexes using the inertia force from the recoil of the rifle, creating a smoother and more precise breech-loading process. The metal-jacketed rifled steel barrel sends the pellets downrange at up to 965 fps (with alloy pellets) and the automotive-grade glass-filled nylon stock is durable and comfortable. This air rifle is the ultimate small-game-getter! Read more
