And you thought it couldn't get any better! Benelli is pleased to announce the release of a special new shotgun, the Benelli Performance Shop Cordoba.

The classic Franchi Renaissance Sporting shotgun is now available in 20-gauge. Weighing in at 7.4 pounds, Franchi's new 20-gauge is nimble, affordable and designed with the requirements of clay target shooters in mind. The Renaissance Sporting is fitted with a sturdy, stainless steel box-lock action to handle a steady diet of high-brass target loads and has 30-inch ported barrels with lengthened forcing cones to guarantee uniform shot patterns and to reduce backpressure for reduced felt recoil. Knurled, extended choke tubes make it quick and easy to change chokes between stations or shots.

For 2009, A. Uberti, is pleased to announce new Stallion Revolvers, an exciting collection of scaled-down, 1873 Army models offered in economical .22 Long Rifle and potent .22 Magnum calibers. Almost from the time that hard riding troopers of the U.S. cavalry first carried it into action, Sam Colt's new 1873 Single Action Army revolver was well on its way to becoming an American classic.

Lightning fast and reliable - shot after shot - in the world of single-action revolvers, Uberti's new hand-tuned Cattleman is truly "the boss," or El Patrón, as the Vaqueros of the old west would say. Over the more than 130 years since Sam Colt first offered models of his 1873 Single-Action Army revolver, the tried and true "Peacemaker" design has established itself as a classic American firearm and an icon of the American frontier. In the 21st Century, A. Uberti, manufacturer of the world's most respected modern replica firearms, carries on the tradition with the El Patrón Single-Action Army revolver.
