Henry Repeating Arms, one of the country’s leading firearms manufacturers, is donating a limited-edition series “Joel’s Wildfire” Golden Boy Silver rifles as part of its Guns For Great Causes program to help wildland firefighter Joel Eisiminger cover the mounting medical expenses associated with his fight against acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a diagnosis he received one day before his 25th birthday.

Eisiminger, originally from Southern Oregon, spent six seasons battling wildfires across the American West. In July 2024, while deployed on a wildfire in Northern California, Joel suddenly became seriously ill and was soon diagnosed with the aggressive form of blood cancer that requires extensive treatment.

His story, published in The New York Times, also helped shine a light on the lack of protection available to wildland firefighters. In response, lawmakers introduced the Healthy Lungs for Heroes Act (S.3183) in November 2025 to reverse a decades-long rule banning the use of respirators.

Henry Repeating Arms expects the sale of the 50-rifle series to generate more than $40,000 to support Joel’s treatment and ongoing care. Read more

The Blue Label O/U series gained attention as a competitively priced option for hunters and sport shooters who wanted the quality, simplicity and performance of a traditional over-and-under shotgun without the premium price tag.

If you haven’t handled an FK BRNO yet, the first thing you notice is that it doesn’t feel like a variant or derivative of something else. That’s because it isn’t: FK BRNO designs purpose-built pistols around their proprietary 7.5 FK cartridge system, an approach intended to push pistol performance farther downrange while keeping recoil and control manager.

FK BRNO is based in Brno in the Southern Moravia region of the Czech Republic. The city has a longstanding reputation for serious firearms craftsmanship. Their modern lineup carries that tradition forward with a distinctly engineering-forward mindset: tight tolerances, robust materials, and a focus on repeatable performance.

FK BRNO PSD Pistol in 7.5 FK

The flagship for many shooters is the FK BRNO PSD Pistol, a single-action, tilting-barrel pistol built around the 7.5 FK system. It’s designed to deliver rifle-like ballistics from a handgun platform, aided by FK’s proprietary recoil-attenuating system to keep the gun controllable and consistent shot-to-shot. The PSD platform is also known for its flexibility: it can be configured to run additional calibers with alternative barrels, giving owners a way to train or tailor the setup to different needs without leaving the FK ecosystem.

FK BRNO Field Pistol in 7.5 FK

If the PSD is the versatile do-it-all platform, the FK BRNO Field Pistol leans hard into precision and long-range capability. It’s an original design and is built on a system that can handle high-pressure performance while remaining ergonomic in the hand. The Field Pistol is positioned for long-range competition use, silhouette shooting, and hunting applications where accuracy and stability matter. Read more
