CZ SHADOW 2 CARRY

Kansas City

Born from sport, tailored for EDC” is how one could describe the new CZ SHADOW 2 CARRY. It combines practical features with the shooting comfort of a competition pistol—along with an uncompromising focus on safety.

The overwhelming success of the CZ SHADOW 2 speaks for itself. It’s the pistol 65% of top shooters in the IPSC Production and Production Optics divisions. In fact, many of them dominate these divisions with the CZ SHADOW 2 in hand. Nine-time IPSC World Champion and ambassador for the CZ SHADOW 2 family, Eric Grauffel, is proof that pairing top-tier skill with a well-designed firearm is a recipe for success.

Competition shooters can choose from several models built for different shooting disciplines. However, the popularity of the CZ SHADOW 2 COMPACT showed us that the CZ SHADOW 2 platform wasn’t just for winning medals—it also had serious potential for personal defense.

Impressed by its performance, many customers turned to the more compact, lightweight version for concealed carry. Now, with the launch of the CZ SHADOW 2 CARRY, they have a purpose-built option tailored for EDC—without sacrificing the features they love.

The CZ SHADOW 2 CARRY sets a new standard for everyday carry pistols. Read more

California Non-Residents Can Apply for Carry Permit Starting April 22

BELLEVUE, Wash. —— Thanks to a preliminary injunction in the Second Amendment Foundation’s (SAF) case CRPA v. LASD, starting Tuesday, April 22, non-resident SAF members can apply for a California carry permit.

The injunction requires that California accept permit applications from any United States resident outside the state who is a member of SAF or its partner organizations and not prohibited from possessing firearms. SAF was joined in the case by the California Rifle & Pistol Association, Gun Owners of America, Gun Owners Foundation, Gun Owners of California and several private citizens.

“As you might imagine, the state of California is not wanting to make it easy for non-residents to apply for a carry permit,” said SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut. “As a SAF member and non-resident of California, however, you’re allowed to apply. The main thing to keep in mind is that you need to submit your application through the sheriff or police department for the county you plan to visit. The order specifically lists how to apply, so that’s the best place to find the exact information you need.” Read more

Savage Arms Debuts AC30 B.O.B. AccuCan Suppressor

Savage Arms®, an iconic firearm manufacturer, is debuting a new addition to its popular line of AccuCan suppressors. The AC30 B.O.B. (Back Over Barrel) suppressor is the perfect option for shooters looking to enhance balance and reduce overall firearm length while shooting suppressed.

The B.O.B. design partially encloses the barrel, allowing for more internal volume and minimizing the increase of overall rifle length. These modifications improve sound suppression and reduce point-of-impact shift, leading to better accuracy.

“The AC30 B.O.B. is a great addition to our suppressor line that gives hunters and shooters performance advantages and options,” said Beth Shimanski, Director of Marketing at Savage Arms. “This design and option is attractive to a wide variety of hunters as it provides a significant reduction in noise, is more compact, rated for all .30 caliber options and also reduces felt recoil. Competitive shooters will enjoy similar benefits of reduced noise and recoil, without sacrificing maneuverability.”

At a weight of only 13.7 ounces and fully serviceable in the field, the new AccuCan is perfect for backcountry hunting or all-day shooting excursions. Capable of shooting any .30 caliber cartridge up to .300 Winchester Magnum, it is compatible with a wide variety of firearms including most Savage firearms with factory installed Proof Research barrels.

Once fully integrated, this acquisition is expected to yield adjusted EBITDA of $40 million per year with full realization of synergies.

“During our recent Investor Day, we committed to our capital allocation framework,” said Olin’s President and CEO, Ken Lane. “Like the White Flyer acquisition in 2023, this acquisition furthers our Winchester strategy to identify and secure small, bolt-on opportunities that are highly strategic and immediately accretive to Olin. By year three, we expect to have paid one and a half times adjusted EBITDA for these world-class assets.”

Brett Flaugher, President of Winchester Ammunition, noted, “The specialization of the Manitowoc facility will expand our reach into higher-value commercial, as well as international military and law enforcement calibers, while deepening our near full integration across the ammunition value chain.

Court rules in favor of federal and state agencies on Mexican wolf management rule

PHOENIX — The U.S. District Court in Tucson has ruled in favor of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the Arizona Game and Fish Department and against a coalition of plaintiffs in a lawsuit challenging the FWS’s 2022 Mexican wolf 10(j) management rule for the recovery of Mexican wolves.
