Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Savage Impulse rifle?

The Savage Impulse is an ambidextrous straight-pull bolt-action rifle. It features the Hexlock ball-bearing lock-up system for secure locking, a swappable bolt handle for left or right-hand operation, and Savage's signature AccuTrigger for a crisp pull. It's available in various configurations like Hog Hunter, Big Game, and Predator.

How does the Rarebreed FRT-15 trigger work?

The Rarebreed FRT-15 is a Forced Reset Trigger for AR-15 platforms. It leverages the bolt carrier's rearward movement to automatically reset the trigger. This allows the shooter to achieve a very high rate of fire while the firearm remains legally classified as semi-automatic, as it still requires one trigger pull per shot fired.

What are the key features of the KelTec P50?

The KelTec P50 is a pistol chambered in 5.7x28mm. Its most notable feature is its compatibility with 50-round P90 magazines, offering significant capacity. It also has a unique top-opening action for easier loading and a relatively long 9.6-inch barrel for a pistol, contributing to its MSRP of $995.

What new products were announced besides the main firearms?

Gemtech has released the Integra 15-22, an integrally suppressed upper receiver designed for the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22 rifle. Additionally, Heritage Manufacturing introduced the 'Barkeep,' a new compact, short-barreled .22 caliber single-action revolver, appealing to plinkers and collectors.
