NICS Checks Top 530,000 for ‘Black Friday’ Week

WASHINGTON, D.C. — NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, revealed that the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) completed 530,156 background checks related to firearms for the week leading up to, and including, “Black Friday,” one of the busiest shopping days of the year. That figure is down from 2024’s total of 613,380 for the same time period. The 2025 total is a 13.6 percent decrease from the 2024 figure.

NICS completed 165,183 background checks on “Black Friday” alone. The figure approximates firearm sales at retail on that day, although it also includes background checks for other purposes related to firearms such as approvals for concealed carry permits. NSSF will later this week release its Adjusted NICS figures for November reflecting only those background checks related to the sale of a firearm at retail.

NSSF has worked with firearm retailers to spread out special sales offers to customers throughout the week leading up to “Black Friday” so as not to overwhelm FBI NICS on a single day, which can result in longer than normal wait times. Read more

U.S. Army Awards Mossberg Contract for Additional 590A1 Pump-Action Shotguns

O.F. Mossberg & Sons, Inc. is proud to announce that it has been awarded a contract for approximately $11.6 million dollars to supply the U.S. Army with additional Mossberg® 590A1™ pump-action shotguns. First adopted by multiple branches of the U.S. Military in 1987, the Mossberg 590® proved its reliability and durability by successfully completing the rigorous MIL-SPEC 3443E testing protocol.

Following its adoption, the U.S. Military requested a purpose-built variant capable of withstanding sustained, high-volume use in the most demanding environments. That requirement led directly to the development of the Mossberg 590A1 — a strengthened, mission-ready evolution of the original 590 platform.

“Mossberg is honored to receive an additional contract from the U.S. Department of Defense for the battle-proven 590A1 shotgun,” said John MacLellan, Mossberg’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “This award reflects our long commitment to supplying rugged, mission-capable firearms built to exacting standards — and reinforces our pledge to provide timely solutions that support the safety and effectiveness of U.S. service members.” Read more

NEXTORCH Introduces WL25 Tactical Weapon Light with Green Laser

Seattle, WA –– NEXTORCH North America, the primary U.S. distributor of global manufacturer NEXTORCH Industries, proudly introduces the WL25 Tactical Weapon Light with Green Laser. This rail-mounted tactical light blends a high-output white light with an integrated green laser for fast and precise target acquisition in low-light and no-light situations. Delivering up to 1,200 ultra-bright lumens and 44,100 candela, its focused beam can reach a distance of up to 459 yards.

The WL25 state-of-the-art tactical weapon light was designed in Germany and engineered to meet the demands of law enforcement, military personnel and professionals requiring crucial forward illumination and aiming in time-critical situations. It features a three-mode toggle switch control (Laser / Laser + White / White) for quick and intuitive operation, even with gloves on. The ambidextrous toggle switches allow users control from either side; a single click for constant-on, a press-and-hold for momentary-on, and double-click to switch between high and low modes. Once switched off, this intelligent weapon light resumes the previous brightness setting when powered back on.

Laser aiming calibration is simple and easy; its click-to-adjust system enables fast, repeatable zeroing. Use of a hex-wrench allows precise micro-adjustments of 1.5 MOA per click at 10 yards. A front-loaded battery access system enables lightning-fast battery swaps without removing it from the firearm. The tool-free quick-detach rail mount system guarantees a secure mount even under heavy recoil. Five adapter plates support compatibility with mainstream pistol rails. Built to endure real-world use, the WL25 combines high-output illumination, precision laser aiming, and mission-ready ergonomics; delivering dependable performance when every second counts.

MDT Launches the Hand Cannon Slingshot

A Precision-Built, Fully Modular Evolution of a Timeless Classic

MDT, a leader in precision shooting innovation, is proud to announce the launch of the MDT Hand Cannon Slingshot, a modern reimagining of a childhood staple, engineered with the same rigor and performance-driven mindset behind MDT’s Chassis Systems.

Built from CNC-machined anodized aluminum and designed around a fully modular architecture, the MDT Hand Cannon Slingshot elevates simple backyard fun into a precision shooting platform. With interchangeable grips, sighting options, accessory interfaces, and tunable flat bands, it adapts to nearly any shooting style: competition, training, hunting, or pure recreation.

The MDT Hand Cannon Slingshot is built as a modern precision tool, far beyond the simple slingshots most shooters grew up with. Its rigid 6061 aluminum body eliminates flex, giving every draw and release a consistent, controlled feel. The result is a level of repeatability that turns casual backyard shooting into something far more refined.

Customization is at the core of the design. A rotating ambidextrous handle mount allows shooters to position the grip left, right, or centered to match their preferred draw style. With multiple grip options, including small, large, and AR pistol-grip compatible choices, users can create anything from a compact, minimalist build to a full-featured setup with added palm support.

The platform’s modularity takes things further. Integrated Picatinny rails, sling studs, and bolt-on sight interfaces give shooters room to add lights, lasers, SEND iT levels, lanyards, and other accessories. Whether kept clean or fully outfitted, the system adapts to the shooter’s needs. Read more

Trump Admin Enacts FPC Proposal to Create New DOJ Second Amendment Rights Section

Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) welcomed reports that the Trump Administration will establish a dedicated Second Amendment rights section within the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice—an action that directly reflects FPC’s top executive-branch recommendation and a priority first proposed by FPC during the previous Trump Administration. The new office is expected to officially ramp up in early December.

FPC has consistently called for the creation of such a legal arm as part of a broader, long-term strategy to challenge and dismantle unconstitutional state and local restrictions on the right to keep and bear arms. The new section represents a vital infrastructure piece needed to confront what FPC has described as the ‘Axis of Authoritarianism’—governments that continue to defy Supreme Court precedent and block the exercise of fundamental rights.

FPC described the administration’s move as a major step toward properly recognizing the Second Amendment as protecting a real right that warrants the same institutional protection as all other enumerated rights. FPC also emphasized the importance of appointing leadership with deep expertise in original-public-meaning jurisprudence to ensure that the new section’s work remains faithful to the Constitution, as recommended in FPC’s White House briefing.
