For years, airsoft players have enjoyed the benefits of battery-powered shooting and the precise control of adjustable field-effect transistors. The Umarex AER16 brings those features to the full-auto airgun world.

Built on a recognizable modern sporting rifle-style body, the AER16 is powered by a rechargeable battery. Proven on airsoft fields around the world, the battery allows up to 12 full magazines (650 rounds) of shooting before needing to be recharged.

A drop-free magazine holds 55 steel BBs, while a fire selector switch moves from safe to semi-auto to full auto. In full auto, the AER16 fires at 450 rounds per minute at up to 440 FPS. A speedloader holds 650 rounds to cut down on reloading times.

An adjustable buttstock, adjustable flip-up sights that are removable and numerous mounting points are available for accessories such as optics or lights.

Columbus, Georgia – Heckler & Koch, a global leader in small arms, is excited to announce the release of the new G36 .22 LR.

Since adoption by the German Bundeswehr in 1997, the iconic G36 has been the gold standard modern rifles continue to emulate. From its ability to fire with a folded stock, its completely modular design, ambidextrous controls, and short-stroke piston system, the combat-proven G36 is still used to protect and serve countries worldwide.

HK has once again partnered with Umarex of Germany to create the most realistic civilian version of the G36 yet. So realistic, in fact, that most of the original accessories and furniture will mount securely to give the same look and feel as the original G36. Whether being used as a fun range gun, or a sub-caliber trainer, the G36 .22 is a high quality and reliable firearm ready for whatever you throw its way.

“The G36 .22 has been a labor of love. The G36 .22 is the enthusiast’s rimfire: from its iconic silhouette, ambidextrous controls, and smooth recoil experience, we ensured that G36 .22 is no mere imitation – it is a fully-functional and fully-featured rifle,” said Nathan Schueth, Director of Sales & Business Development.” Our partners knocked it out of the park. The G36 .22 features wide compatibility with existing G36 accessories and is begging to be customized!”

Units are already on their way to all HK USA Distributors. For more information visit

MURFREESBORO, TN – Barrett Firearms Manufacturing Inc. has announced plans for a new state-of-the-art facility set to redefine excellence in weapon systems manufacturing while delivering jobs growth for the region.

The announcement was made formally by the Department of Tennessee Economic and Community Development (TNECD) Thursday, March 20.

The $76.4 million campus-style industrial precinct, to be known as the Barrett Manufacturing & Technology Campus (BMTC), will be capable of designing, developing, manufacturing, testing, sustaining and distributing Barrett’s expanding range of world-class products.

It will be constructed on a 170-acre greenfield site in the company’s Murfreesboro TN heartland and less than a mile from the current base at which Barrett has become a global leader.

The expansion will double the Barrett workforce over the next five years and enable the company to meet growing worldwide demand for its commercial and defense products.

The facility is planned to open in early 2027. Read more

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has issued an Interim Final Rule removing the Attorney General’s delegation of authority to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to process applications for relief from federal firearms disabilities under 18 U.S.C. 925(c). This action follows more than three decades of Congressional funding restrictions that have rendered ATF unable to process individual applications.

The rule removes outdated regulations and is part of a broader review of firearm-related policies under Executive Order 14206 (Protecting Second Amendment Rights). Upon the interim final rule’s expected publication tomorrow, the DOJ will begin allowing individuals who are not “dangerous to public safety” to use the statute and petition to have their gun rights restored.

Key Points of the Rule Change:

• Since 1992, Congress has prohibited ATF from using funds to process gun rights restoration applications, making the statute obsolete.
• ATF will no longer handle individual firearm disability relief applications under 18 U.S.C. 925(c). DOJ will instead carry out the statute and process petitions for gun rights restoration.
• The DOJ rule goes into effect immediately upon publication and will simultaneously accept public comments on the rule before issuing a final version.

Gun Owners of America remains committed to monitoring this process and ensuring that any future policies respect the constitutional rights of all law-abiding citizens.

Erich Pratt, Senior Vice President of Gun Owners of America, issued the following statement: “For decades, law-abiding Americans who have had their gun rights unfairly restricted have been left in legal limbo—creating an unconstitutional de facto lifetime gun ban. This bureaucratic failure has denied thousands of individuals their lawful opportunity to restore their rights. The DOJ’s decision to finally withdraw ATF’s authority in this matter is an encouraging sign that this administration is serious about protecting the Second Amendment for all Americans.”

Aidan Johnston, Director of Federal Affairs for Gun Owners of America, issued the following statement: “Since its enactment in 1992, Gun Owners of America has fought against the ‘Schumer Amendment’ which defunded the federal gun rights restoration statute. GOA and thousands of would-be gun owners are grateful to President Trump and Attorney General Pam Bondi for once again allowing gun owners to petition to have their gun rights restored by the Department of Justice. We hope to see many more infringements repealed as the federal government carries out President Trump’s executive order Protecting Second Amendment Rights.” Read more

Taking Precision to the Next Level

Real Avid, the leader in DIY for Guns®, is proud to unveil a tough new lineup of fixed torque limiters, the most precise and technically advanced torque limiters designed for serious DIY gun enthusiasts and professional gunsmiths alike.

Achieving the precise torque value on scope mounts, rings, actions screws, and other assorted gun components is critical to firearm performance and to prevent damage to components. Not enough torque and scopes come loose, barreled actions become sloppy, and components may fall off. Too much torque and bad things happen to optics and guns.

Recognizing the critical need for precision at the gun bench, Real Avid developed a simple, cost-effective means to achieve correct torque with their new Smart-Torq® Fixed Limiters. These fixed torque limiters, built for 1/4-inch drivers, are pre-set to the most common in-lb torque specifications found in gun builds and component upgrades.

To use, simply install the appropriate Smart-Torq® Fixed Limiter to any 1/4-inch driver, fit with the correct driver bit, and tighten the screw. The limiter will “click” when the rated torque value is reached. That’s it. Read more
