(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

MARYVILLE, TN. – Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ Global Select: SWBI), a leader in firearm manufacturing and design, announces today the release of the M&P Shield X series.

This exciting new sub-compact platform is the next iteration of the Shield series and is built around versatility. The Shield X is an ideal concealed carry pistol, chambered in 9mm, with capacities of 13+1 and 15+1 for standard models, and 10+1 for a compliant variant. It boasts an improved ergonomic frame design, including a lengthened grip, undercut trigger guard, and extended beaver tail that provides a better fit and feel no matter your hand size. Upgraded features include aggressive front and rear serration coverage for easier manipulation, a 3.6-inch stainless-steel barrel, and an Ameriglo® Trooper LumiGreen front night sight and blacked-out serrated u-notch rear sight. An integrated front rail and squared-off trigger guard allows users to mount a variety of light and laser accessories and an RMSc/K optics ready footprint provides direct-mount red dot capabilities. When utilizing an optic on the Shield X, Smith & Wesson’s ClearSight™ Cut is designed to divert gasses away from the red dot glass, preserving an unobstructed view.

“When designing the Shield X, a key focus was enhancing ergonomics to deliver a superior fit and feel across all hand sizes. Drawing inspiration from the Bodyguard 2.0, we introduced several refinements to the frame including undercutting the trigger guard, adding a slight beaver tail, and slimming specific areas at the back of the frame.
