How do you really thank your customers for being dedicated fans of your brand and your products? There’s several ways this can be done. Our social media team will publish user generated content when given permission to do so. We offer sales and discounts through our Umarex Club Newsletter, and we also do as many public-focused events as we can. It never seems like enough, though. We have a great and growing group of fans and that not only feels good, but it has pushed Umarex Airguns up from a relative unknown to THE leading force in the airgun industry.

Umarex Airguns is excited to participate in the World Champion Squirrel Cook Off on Sept. 23. Held at the Ozark Highlands Nature Center in Springdale, Ark., the cook off is a celebration of the Ozarks and the humble squirrel. Forty teams from around the nation are expected to compete for the championship. Each three-person team has three hours to prepare their squirrel dish and a side for the judges.

Everyone loves an underdog story. If you don’t, I have no idea what it could be, but there’s something wrong with you. The little guy sticking his finger up in the face of a greater, more numerous and powerful force and winning should be the story that evokes heartwarming emotions and the desire to shake your own finger in the face of authority… or something like that.

Ok, that is a bit of a sensational headline. To be fair, it was the generosity of Firebird Targets that made our range and everyone else who was shooting on the Vendor Range at the 2023 Pyramyd Air Cup shake, rattle, and rain gravel!

Sometimes you just have to make a decision. I know that when we are looking to buy an item, and it takes a little setting aside of money (and accounting for how many hours of your life you’ll trade for that item) and picking the Right One™ is of the utmost importance. Some people will rationalize the decision over days, even weeks coming up with a list of reasons why this particular item is the Right One™.

What is a transitional space? It’s just a fifty-cent word that describes places like parking lots, hallways, courtyards– any place where you are moving from one location to another. Transitional spaces are places where we are vulnerable to predatory criminals doing their work.

You’ve probably heard the expression, “You’ve got all the time in the world.” This statement is often quipped to young people who are in a hurry to get on with their lives. Us old timer’s know a thing or two, don’t we? Well, we should know that we don’t have all the time in the world. Not to draw to somber a point as to why, but you never know when your ticket is going to get punched.

It’s been a minute or two since air archery came on the scene. We’ve had our AirSaber on the market for more than three years now and it has been a hit all over the world at this point.  However, here in the US, the wheels of bureaucracy turn slow. With that said, what is the current state of legality for hunting with air archery or what some refer to as an airbow?

These days you don’t have to go looking for trouble. Trouble has your address and knows where you are at any given time. Are you ready for it?  Just a short while back my wife and I took a short trip just a few hours away to see some old friends. It was on this little trip that an incident occurred ...

This year almost sorta seems like things are getting back to normal– or at least inflation has slowed down a touch, a certain bug no longer has people paralyzed with fear, and travel restrictions are essentially gone. Yes, it’s not 2019 by any means, but it ain’t 2020 or 2021 either. With this being the case, people are getting out for some serious airgun hunting adventures and seeing the world, too.
