The 8.6 Blackout is a cartridge that builds upon the popular .300 Blackout. Think of it as the .300 Blackout’s big brother, but for the AR10 platform. It offers twice the reach, double the energy, and triple the lethality. With a simple barrel swap, an AR-10 firearm can be converted to shoot 8.6 Blackout. The cartridge excels in short, lightweight guns, making it handy in the field and quick on target. It utilizes a radical 1:3-inch twist, achieving fantastic accuracy with heavy, subsonic bullets. It is based on a shortened and necked-up 6.5 Creedmoor case, providing maximum subsonic power from a .308-sized platform.

Bear Creek Arsenal now offers the 8.6 Blackout in uppers and rifles. Read more

BELLEVUE, Wash. —— The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has filed an amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in support of Smith & Wesson in its legal fight against the government of Mexico, which seeks to hold the American gun manufacturer liable for criminal acts of third parties in Mexico.

The 23-page brief was submitted by attorneys Thomas R. McCarthy and Tiffany H. Bates of Arlington, Va. It outlines the history of firearms litigation and explains why Congress adopted the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) during the George W. Bush administration.

“As our brief explains,” said SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut, “allowing Mexico to prevail in suing firearm manufacturers for the criminal acts of third parties defies logic and would embolden a new round of lawfare against industry members. Ultimately, these lawsuits would drive many manufacturers out of business and potentially impose requirements on firearm designs that have been rejected by Americans. In the end, it is the American citizen who would suffer, as their choices for arms would be limited to the few surviving manufacturers. The Second Amendment is meaningless without the ability to acquire arms.” Read more
