From Savage Arms

Savage Arms is proud to announce three dynamic new additions to its catalog. Guns & Ammo Magazine’s Shotgun of the Year for 2020 is now available in sporting model: RENEGAUGE Competition. The 110 Tactical and AXIS II are now being chambered for the 6mm Advanced Rifle Cartridge (ARC). And for long-range hunters, four Model 110s will be chambered in 28 Nosler.

“2020 was a big year for Savage,” Al Kasper, President and CEO of Savage Arms said. “2021 is going to be even bigger. We have our sights firmly set on innovation and really rounding out our catalog. These three models do just that. Each represents something our customers have been asking for. 6mm ARC is a round with a tremendous potential. 28 Nosler is pushing the limits for ethical hunting—and RENEGAUGE keeps on evolving.”

RENEGAUGE Competition

RENEGAUGE Competition builds on the American made 12 gauge’s success and adds some new elements specifically designed to give the platform a competitive edge. The extended magazine tube increases capacity to a full ten rounds. The barrel is finished with Melonite, while the receiver, magazine tube and Extended Skeet2 Light Modified Choke are finished in Cerakote®.

6mm ARC Chamberings

6mm ARC evolved from The Department of Defense’s request for a round that would rival the .308, but one that could be fired from smaller rifle platforms. Savage’s new 6mm ARC rifles make the most of the round’s dynamic flexibility. Tactical marksmen will appreciate 6mm ARC’s potential for weight retention and penetration, and the 110 Tactical is an ideal rifle for the job.

Hunters will appreciate 6mm ARC’s potential for long-range accuracy and weight retention, and the new chambering of the AXIS II provides a proven platform for the innovate new round.

28 Nosler is the most powerful 7mm cartridge commercially available. For long range hunts, 28 Nosler is a winner and these four new 110s are poised to make the most of the chambering.

The four model 110s that will debut the new chambering are well suited for hunting. The new 110 Timberline will be available in both left- and right-hand configurations.

New Guns & Gear for 2021—Streamlight Launches Laser Versions of Rail Mount Lights

From Streamlight

Streamlight^® Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting and weapon light/laser sighting devices, introduced the TLR^®RM 1 Laser and TLR^® RM 2 Laser tactical lighting systems for long guns. Packaged as a system, each rail mounted light features independently operating push-button and remote pressure switches; the kit provides everything users need to mount to long guns. Also available in light-only models, the TLR RM 1 Laser and the TLR RM 2 Laser deliver 500 and 1,000 lumens, respectively.

“The TLR RM 1 and 2 Laser versions offer a precise red aiming laser for tactical and military users, along with a convenient mode select toggle switch,” said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. “They also deliver a powerful beam with extensive range and solid, good peripheral coverage.”

The rail mount systems include an ergonomically friendly, multi-function tail switch, along with a remote switch input option. The remote switch is designed to exit the weapon at a 90º angle, improving wire routing to preserve rail space. The lights feature three modes: Laser only, LED illumination only or both, operated by the new side toggle switch. The facecap offers a ‘Safe off’ feature to prevent unintentional activation.

The new models are designed to quickly and securely attach to any long gun with a MIL Standard 1913 or NATO Rail, without the need for hands in front of the muzzle. The lights offer highly accurate sight repeatability when remounting. Each light includes a key kit to securely fit the light onto a broad array of weapons.

The lights each feature the latest in power LED technology, and include a custom TIR optic that produces a concentrated beam with optimum peripheral illumination. The TLR RM 1 Laser offers 500 lumens, 5,000 candela and a beam distance of 140 meters; the TLR RM 2 Laser provides 1,000 lumens and 10,000 candela with a 200-meter beam distance. The lights also include a selectable strobe feature.

The TLR RM 1 Laser includes one (1) 3 volt CR123A lithium battery, measures 3.2 inches in length and weighs 2.97 ounces. The TLR RM 2 Laser includes two (2) 3-volt CR123A lithium batteries, is 4.6 inches long and weighs 4.95 ounces. Both feature 1.5 hours of continuous run time and three hours on strobe.

IPX4-rated for water-resistant operation, the TLR RM 1 and TLR RM 2 Lasers are constructed with durable anodized machined aircraft aluminum with an impact-resistant Borofloat^® glass lens.

Available in black, the TLR RM 1 and TLR RM 2 Laser Lighting Systems have MSRPs of $398.00 and $415.00, respectively. The TLR RM 1 and TLR RM 2 Laser Light-Only models have MSRPs of $360.00 and $378.00 respectively. Each comes with Streamlight’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.

New Guns & Gear for 2021—KelTec P50

From KelTec

KelTec® celebrates its 30th Anniversary of game-changing firearms innovation in 2021 and to mark the occasion, they’re introducing the P50™, a pistol like no other.

This new semi-automatic pistol features a top-mounted, double-stack magazine that allows a 50+1 capacity of 5.7 x 28mm ammunition, creating a whole new class of pistol. It also features an ambidextrous safety, and a picatinny-style rail for mounting sights, an optic or your choice of accessories.

“It’s only fitting,” said Derek Kellgren, Director of Sales, “that we kick off our 30th Anniversary with the introduction of a firearm that may well be our most innovative yet.”

What immediately catches the eye are the 50 rounds of 5.7 ammo stacked horizontally inside the translucent body of the magazine which stretches the length of the firearm. Sandwiching the magazine in place is the upper and lower assembly. The upper assembly, which is the receiver, houses the barrel and bolt assemblies and rotates open on a hinge like the hood of a car. It’s this action that frees the magazine.

The grip, which comprises the lower assembly, houses the trigger mechanism and release lever. The latter of which locks the upper to the lower assembly and is manipulated by the user’s thumb. “The total weight,” added Director of Industrial Production, Adrian Kellgren, “is 3.2 pounds, which is very light for its capacity. This not only contributes to control, but makes carrying the P50 easy, whether slung over the shoulder or in a bag.
