CMMG Chambers 224 Valkyrie

Boonville, MO–Known for delivering innovative, practical products to market, CMMG continues to live up to its reputation with the release of the new Mk4 DTR2 rifle, chambered in 224 Valkyrie.

U.S. Supreme Court to Hear E-Fairness Cas

The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case that could determine whether or not states can collect sales tax on remote sales.

The state appealed the decision and the case now moves to the U.S. Supreme Court. Justice Anthony Kennedy has suggested that, given the recent growth of internet sales, it is time for the Supreme Court to revisit the 1992 decision. Read more
