Down-N-Dirty Outdoors

Lewisburg, KY --(Ammoland.com)- Down-N-Dirty Outdoors, the maker of high-quality, hand-made turkey calls has launched its new Killin’ Krew Series of diaphragm turkey calls with the introduction of the KY H5N1.

Designed by DND Killin’ Krew Pro Staff member and champion caller, Jeff Noel, the KY H5N1 is expected to be even more deadly to the turkey population than the avian flu from which it got its name, H5N1.

The KY H5N1 is a two-reed diaphragm call with a modified Ghost Cut that produces powerful, raspy yelps, cuts and cackles.

“It cuts and cackles so realistically. It also ‘kee-kees’ like a dream, and it will finish with any call on the market,” said Jason Kidd, DND vice-president.

“The KY H5N1 is going to be the deadliest thing to hit turkeys since the bird flu,” said Noel.

The suggested retail price of the KY H5N1 is $11.99.

Through their experience and determination, Down-N-Dirty Outdoors has come to offer hunters the most advanced line of game calls available today.

ATF Study on the Importability of Certain Shotguns
“ATF concludes that USPSA and ISPC events are not considered “sporting purpose” at this time. -  AmmoLand”

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives

Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- ATF announces the publication of the Study on the Importability of Certain Shotguns. To obtain comments from the affected industry, ATF will be accepting comments January 31, 2011, through May 1, 2011, at shotgunstudy@atf.gov

Brief Summary:

Firearm Features
In reviewing the shotguns used for those activities classified as sporting purposes, the working group examined State hunting laws, rules, and guidelines for shooting competitions and shooting organizations; industry advertisements and literature; scholarly and historical publications; and statistics on participation in the respective shooting sports.

Following this review, the working group determined that certain shotgun features are not particularly suitable or readily adaptable for sporting purposes.

These features include:

1. Folding, telescoping, or collapsible stocks;
2. bayonet lugs;
3. flash suppressors;
4. magazines over 5 rounds, or a drum magazine;
5. grenade-launcher mounts;
6. integrated rail systems (other than on top of the receiver or barrel);
7. light enhancing devices;
8. excessive weight (greater than 10 pounds for 12 gauge or smaller);
9. excessive bulk (greater than 3 inches in width and/or greater than 4 inches in depth);
10. forward pistol grips or other protruding parts designed or used for gripping the shotgun with the shooterfs extended hand.

Although the features listed above do not represent an exhaustive list of possible shotgun features, designs or characteristics, the working group determined that shotguns with any one of these features are most appropriate for military or law enforcement use. Therefore, shotguns containing any of these features are not particularly suitable for nor readily adaptable to generally recognized sporting purposes such as hunting, trap, sporting clay, and skeet shooting. Each of these features and an analysis of each of the determinations are included within the main body of the report.

The purpose of this study is to establish criteria that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) will use to determine the importability of certain shotguns under the provisions of the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA).
