Frequently Asked Questions

What were the April 2020 background check numbers in the US?

In April 2020, the FBI reported 2.9 million background checks. This brought the yearly total to over 12 million, a significant increase indicating high firearm acquisition rates.

What are the key features of the new Escort Slugger shotgun?

The Escort Slugger is a budget-friendly, pump-action 12-gauge shotgun with an 18-inch barrel and 3-inch chamber. It features fixed cylinder chokes and a 5-round magazine tube, with a standard model and a 'Tact' version including a pistol grip and Picatinny rail.

Is it legal to put a vertical grip on an AR pistol?

Using a vertical grip on an AR pistol with a barrel under 16 inches is legally ambiguous and generally not recommended. Angled foregrips are a safer alternative to avoid potential NFA violations.

When is premium rimfire ammunition recommended?
