Taurus Revolver in .327 Federal Magnum

(Bainbridge, GA) – Taurus, manufacturer of premium handguns for defense, hunting, and sport shooting, is excited to announce that its most popular everyday carry revolver line is expanding with the introduction of a 6-shot model chambered for the .327 Federal Magnum.

The Taurus 856 has proven itself as a dependable, easy-to-carry personal protection handgun for anyone who favors the reliable performance and simplicity of a revolver. The revolver’s compact design, smooth operation, and recoil-mitigating cushioned grip has made it a go-to firearm for everyday carry and deep concealment. Previously chambered only for .38 Special +P, Taurus now offers consumers a revolver based off the popular 856 but chambered for the highly capable .327 Federal Magnum.

The .327 Federal Magnum is one of the “dark horse” cartridges in the personal defense world. Based on a lengthened .32 H&R Magnum cartridge case, the .327 Federal Magnum exceeds the performance of its parent cartridge with velocity pushing toward the .357 Magnum range without the heavy perceived recoil pulse. This makes the .327 Federal Magnum-chambered Taurus an excellent choice for EDC revolver fans looking for a hard-hitting yet easily manageable 6-round capacity handgun in a compact and concealable form.

Bushnell Releases Trophy Quick Acquisition Riflescope

New 1-6×24 Scope is Purpose-Built for Short to Mid-Range Hunting

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. –– Bushnell®, an industry leader in performance optics, has announced the introduction of its new Trophy Quick Acquisition 1-6×24 riflescope, a purpose-built scope designed for short to mid-range hunting applications with lever guns, brush guns, shotguns and ARs.

The Trophy Quick Acquisition scope is built around a 1/2 MOA illuminated dot drop reticle. Hashmarks on the reticle’s vertical stadia are set in 0.2 MOA increments. This allows for instant holdovers of up to 2 MOA. The reticle also features six on/off settings and “off” positions between intensities, so a shooter doesn’t have to return to zero and lose their preferred intensity.

In addition, enhanced optical glass with multi-coated surfaces and Ultra-Wideband coatings improve light transmission, contrast and clarity. Capped turrets protect shooters’ windage and elevation settings in the field, while a lightweight and waterproof aircraft-grade aluminum body withstands the worst elements a shooter might encounter.

Shadow Systems DR920P Pistol with Integrated Compensator

Plano, TX – Shadow Systems, the Texas-based pistol maker, has announced the release of their DR920P, a full-size pistol with an integrated compensator. The built-in compensator does not make use of a threaded barrel, which makes it compliant in jurisdictions that have threaded-barrel bans.

The DR920P is built on Shadow Systems’ full-size DR920 frame, packing a full 17+1 capacity. The comp and slide are machined to give a single-piece appearance, while the novel design allows for rapid removal and attachment of the comp for cleaning. The patent-pending integrated compensator aligns automatically without the need for set screws or other friction devices. The DR920P’s front sight is mounted directly on top of the comp, for faster shot-to-shot tracking.

The DR920P, which fits G34 holsters, comes complete with the features that have made Shadow Systems so popular. These features include an aggressively textured frame with interchangeable backstraps that adjust the point of aim, a flat faced trigger, and a match-grade, spiral-fluted barrel. The DR920P is offered with the Elite model slide, which includes front and rear directional serrations, a weight-optimizing window cut, and Shadow Systems’ patented multi-footprint optic system. The optic cut allows for direct-to-slide mounting of most major brands of red dot optics, without the need for intervening plates or adapters. Read more

Heritage Expands Barkeep Revolver Line

Heritage™ Manufacturing, Inc., producer of the classic-style Rough Rider® single-action revolvers, takes “compact” to a new level with the introduction of the new Barkeep™ Boot series revolvers.

The Barkeep Boot is a downsized version of the recently introduced Barkeep revolver—a single-action rimfire based on the company’s popular Rough Rider series handguns available in two- or three-inch barrel lengths. In the spirit of the Old West, this new revolver from Heritage Mfg. moves the Barkeep from “waistcoat carry” to “boot carry” with its diminutive one-inch barrel and sleek bird’s head grip profile.

Chambered for .22 LR (will accept the Heritage .22 WMR cylinder), the Barkeep Boot comes with a new 1-inch barrel for optimal discreet carry in a revolver. Adding to the Barkeep Boot’s easy-carry nature is an elegant bird’s head-style grip, which offers a comfortable hold and a flowing aesthetic profile with less bulk when compared to the traditional “plow handle” grip.

Beyond the barrel length and grip, the Barkeep Boot delivers the familiar operation and quality construction of the Rough Rider series single-action revolvers on which it is based. This includes a hammer firing system, manual safety, classical notched rear sight, and black oxide barrel, frame, and cylinder finish. Read more
