The new Hydra configured to utilize GLOCK-style 45 ACP magazines is now, for a limited time, on sale for $1,120.00, a 20 percent savings.
Hydra Weaponry, Maine’s largest firearms employer, designers, and manufacturers of the truly modular MARCK-15 Hydra® Weapon System, developed the Hydra modular rifle configuration to meet the demands of the thousands of GLOCK pistol owners looking to enhance their experience with their favorite brand of pistol. With the .45 ACP caliber being the second most popular caliber behind the 9mm for civilian, law enforcement, and military use, the H21 Hydra MARCK-15 Modular Rifle was the next on the production list.
The Hydra Weaponry team designed a Hydra modular lower receiver with a 45 ACP H21 magazine well. With the H21 mag well as the starting point, Hydra included the Hydra Quick Change Barrel Upper Receiver (QCB-D) along with a Hydra 16-inch .45 ACP blowback barrel, a .45 ACP blowback bolt, and a durable B5 Systems stock and pistol grip.
Owners of the new Hydra MARCK-15 .45 ACP H21 Modular Rifle can use this as the base to expand caliber capabilities through Hydra Weaponry’s growing magazine well and caliber conversion kits. Easy to change out, even in the field, the rifle requires no tools to convert to another caliber with the most the user will ever need to change out is the barrel, bolt, and bolt carrier, and the magazine well to the new caliber.
“A modular concept rifle is the most cost-effective system to purchase when money is an issue but you need multiple calibers to accomplish different tasks. That is why our Hydra MARCK-15 Modular Rifles offer the best in the field for quality and accuracy while being kind to your wallet. Now, with our sale in process, it’s the time to get your hands on a base model and as many conversions as possible!” Mack Gwinn III, CEO of Hydra Weaponry, said. Read more

NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, celebrated the announcement that a lawsuit has been filed against Maine’s Attorney General Aaron Frey, seeking declarative and injunctive relief from state authorities enforcing Public Law 2023, Chapter 678, Maine’s new 72-hour waiting period law that denies law-abiding Mainers the ability to take possession of a newly-purchased firearm after they pass an FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) verification. The Plaintiffs have moved for a preliminary injunction to halt enforcement of the law while the challenge is ongoing.
The 72-hour waiting period law was included in a larger gun control package that was enacted by Gov. Janet Mills in August. Several plaintiffs are challenging Maine’s 72-hour delay period by demonstrating that it violates their Second Amendment rights and are asking the court to strike down the law as unconstitutional.
The lawsuit against Attorney General Aaron Frey was filed by several individuals, federally licensed firearm dealers (FFLs), and an organization that provides firearm training. One of the plaintiffs is a domestic-abuse survivor and certified firearm instructor who offers self-defense classes to victims and survivors. The law now prevents the women she assists from adequately defending themselves against abusive partners who pose a credible and imminent threat to their physical safety, as it forces them to wait three days to secure a firearm even when they clear the NICS background check. Likewise, another plaintiff—a federally licensed firearm dealer—has been forced to delay sales to qualified individuals with time-sensitive needs, including a single woman who was being stalked and a married couple whose home was burgled. These stories are emblematic of the countless number of individuals whose rights have been denied and whose safety has been put in jeopardy due to Maine’s 72-hour waiting period. Read more
