Social Media Censorship Fuels Print Media Revival

Leave a comment

Firearms News’ Facebook Page Getting Deleted Is Part of the Reason Why

DENVER – The saying “what comes around, goes around” rings true today as Firearms News, a leading voice in the Second Amendment community since 1946, announces a renewed commitment to print media as social media censorship further restricts free information flow. The publication’s Facebook page, a top resource for nearly 1 million followers, was recently deleted without warning, underscoring the growing challenges faced by conservative and pro-Second Amendment voices online.

Firearms News has long balanced the legacy of print media with the immediacy of digital content, publishing both monthly issues and daily updates online. Despite digital disruptions, the publication remains steadfast in its dedication to delivering unfiltered Second Amendment news, historical firearm insights, and gun reviews.

“Social media censorship shows the importance and value of our print roots,” notes David M. Fortier, Executive Editor at Firearms News. “Our community relies on us for unbiased journalism, and print is a key part of ensuring our message reaches those who value freedom and transparency.” Read more

APEX Ammunition Introduces New 20-Gauge Waterfowl Load

Leave a comment

Columbus, Miss. – APEX Ammunition is expanding its popular TSS/S3 Steel Waterfowl Blend line of shotshells with the addition of a 20-gauge, 3-inch load combining 7/8 oz No. 2 steel and ¼ oz No. 7.5 Tungsten Super Shot. These handcrafted “duplex” loads are versatile for a variety of hunting situations with the steel patterning especially well for closer shots over decoys followed by the TSS which has greater retained energy at longer ranges for improved terminal performance to reduce crippling.

“Our waterfowl blends represent the pinnacle of performance and value, offering unparalleled pattern versatility,” remarked Jason Lonsberry, President and CEO of APEX Ammunition. “We employ premium zinc-plated steel pellets, ensuring consistently round pellets with anti-corrosion properties, resulting in superior patterning performance in a steel load. When combined with TSS in our blends, hunters benefit from lethal patterning across varying distances.”

The zinc coating on APEX’s S3 Steel pellets reduces friction, resulting in more consistent pellet drop when loading the shotshells and better movement of the pellets against each other in the firing process. These blended loads also use the same Tungsten-grade wad system found in APEX’s iconic Turkey TSS shotshells. The combination delivers lethal patterning, maximum barrel protection, and unmatched shot-to-shot consistency.

APEX TSS/S3 Steel Blend waterfowl shotshells are also available with No. 4 steel and 7.5 TSS.

MSRP: $48.99 per 25-round box or $479.99 per 250 round case. Read more

NSSF Supports U.S. House Oversight Investigation of Biden-Harris, Gun Control Collusion to Target Firearm Manufacturer

Leave a comment

NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, wholeheartedly supports the U.S. House of Representatives Oversight Committee’s subpoena of The White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention to investigate allegations that the administration wrongfully colluded with gun control groups and the City of Chicago to bring an unfounded lawsuit against a firearm manufacturer. It is proper and fitting that the House of Representatives exercises its oversight authority to demand records of the office led by Vice President Kamala Harris, which appears to have weaponized the weight of the federal government to bring “lawfare” against an industry the Biden-Harris administration politically disfavors.

NSSF calls on The White House to comply with the subpoena, end its collaboration with special interest groups to deny Americans their Constitutionally-protected Second Amendment rights and abandon their support for the City of Chicago unfounded claims that amount to another example of “lawfare.”

“The White House already ignored requests to voluntarily provide this information to the House Oversight Committee. This office – led by Vice President Harris, the administration’s ‘gun control czar’ – appears to have manifested the firearm industry’s deepest concerns that it was never formed to improve community safety,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “Rather, it appears this office is a taxpayer-funded effort to do the bidding of radical, special interest groups to weaponize the courts through ‘lawfare’ and advance an agenda to deprive Americans of their Second Amendment rights, guaranteed by the Constitution. NSSF urges The White House to comply with the subpoenas and provide the information to Chairman James Comer.” Read more

Riton Introduces 3 Tactix 3X Magnifier

Leave a comment

The 3 Tactix 3X Magnifier provides additional magnification for those who appreciate the simplicity and size of a red-dot optic, but want to take advantage of the downrange performance their AR-style rifle is capable of, without losing the ease of use or flexibility.

The new 3 Tactix 3X Magnifier adds magnification to your 1X dot-style optics when you need it, and stays out of the way when you don’t. A simple push-button design flips the magnifier out of the way when you prefer to run your dot without additional magnification, while still being easy to flip into position to take a longer shot when the conditions warrant. The button can be manipulated with just one hand, and returning the magnifier to the locked-in position can as well. This means you can keep one hand on the fire control of your rifle while you transition from close to far and back again. Read more
