Henry Repeating Arms Mini Bolt Youth G2 Rifle
Henry’s Mini Bolt Youth G2 upgrades the classic single-shot .22 bolt-action for young shooters. The main improvement is an integrated feed ramp for smoother, easier loading. Weighing just 3.25 pounds, it features a stainless-steel barrel and receiver, both built for durability in camp and youth programs. The fiber-optic sights encourage confident shooting, while dual safeties—manual thumb safety and exposed cock-ing knob—aid in teaching responsible handling. The G2 is available in black or Muddy Girl camo, making it a strong choice for a first rifle.
MSRP: $335
Beretta AX800 Suprema
When the air gets crisp and quacky, Beretta has just the tool. The Italian firearms juggernaut recently released its AX800 Suprema, a 12-gauge that is certain to become an icon among waterfowlers. Top to bottom, the scattergun is designed to survive and thrive in the rough conditions common to knocking ducks and geese from the sky. But perhaps the most notable aspect of the gun is its B-Link Pro Gas System, which Beretta touts as its fastest and cleanest running design to date. Of course, the gun comes with Beretta Steelium barrels and a host of other bells and whistles—stock adjustment, recoil pad, polymer stock. It’s just the medicine your blind needs.
MSRP: Starting at $2,600
MDT CKYE-POD GEN3
CKYE-PODs are absolute legends in the competitive shooting world, offering more utility than you can shake a precision rifle at. And MDT has only made them better with the introduction of the third generation of the bipods. MDT has enlarged the knobs to make deployment much faster. It’s ARCA and Picatinny ready and compatible with A.R.M.S #17 heads. And the leg-lock system offers more control over the bipods, so they don’t accidentally deploy on the move. Best of all, MDT is offering them in three heights, Single-Pull, Double-Pull and Triple Pull, so you have the option of up to 2 feet of elevation.
MSRP: Starting at $600
Winchester Safes VaultLite
Sometimes you simply need a place to secure your guns. It doesn’t need to be fancy or protect them from a meteor impact—just keep them under lock and key. Winchester addresses this exact need with its drop of the VaultLite safe. The non-fire-rated safe is light, attachable to a building’s fabric and secure. Constructed from 14-gauge steel, 14- and 18-gun capacity options and accessible by both keypad and key, it’s just the ticket for temporary or small locations—looking at you, apartment renters.
MSRP: Starting at $300
Smith & Wesson Shield X Carry Comp Model
Smith & Wesson’s new PC Shield X Carry Comp takes the Shield X platform up a notch, adding a PowerPort-equipped 3.6-inch fluted barrel to cut muzzle rise and soften recoil. Chambered in 9mm with capacities up to 15+1, it pairs sub-compact size with serious shootability. The extended grip improves control and capacity, while aggressive slide serrations and a reversible mag catch keep handling intuitive. An accessory rail and squared trigger guard support lights or lasers. Sights include an Ameriglo LumiGreen front and serrated U-notch rear for fast pickup in any light. It’s also RMSc/K-footprint optics-ready, with a ClearSight Cut to keep gas off your glass.
MSRP: $699
TriStar Arms APOC
Best known for its affordable shotguns, TriStar ventured into new territory recently—striker-fired pistols. Yeah, everyone and their brother seems to have a striker-fired on the roster nowadays, but the Kansas City-based brand’s APOC is worth giving a look. If for any reason, the price of the 9mm puts it well into the budget category, while offering plenty in return. Especially nice, the 4-inch barreled pistol boasts a 15-round capacity and is outfitted with a molded accessories rail. Other notables include fiber-optics front and rear sights, front and rear cock-ing serrations and an optional mag well. It’s a tidy package for the price.
MSRP: $359
Rossi RS22 Pistol
Rossi cooked up something more fun than should be legal. Meet the .22-caliber RS22 Pistol. The latest expansion of the company’s RS22 platform has been shortened and braced (Strike Industries FSA) to deliver countless hours of plinking fun. Best of all, the semi-automatic platform is tailored for suppression with a 6-inch barrel and ½x28 TPI threaded muzzle. The pistol ships with a 10-round magazine but accepts the larger RS22 magazines. It’s outfitted with a Picatinny rail for the easy addition of optics. And it has an accessory rail, so adding a light or laser is a snap.
MSRP: $390
