The dog days of summer are around the corner, and the thought of hot and muggy firing-line sessions isn’t much of an incentive to purchase new guns and gear. The slight sales decline in early summer is annual, but it presents an interesting cash-flow challenge for manufacturers.

With the heavy holiday shopping season approaching—and this year’s contentious presidential election looming—now’s not the time to risk idling and potentially losing experienced staff. Yet, there’s serious financial risk in continuing production at full capacity. Investing too much in an inventory collecting dust and, sooner or later, it’s tough to keep the lights on.

Some companies launch smoking-hot sales, offer rebates or add incentives to keep operations running smoothly and ensure the skilled hands they rely on can still bring home the bacon. For larger firms, the promotion season has become something of a tradition.

Either way, here are some of the best deals out there right now—more will likely be announced in the next few weeks. Bear in mind, each have specific limitations and are not allowed in certain areas of the nation. All federal, state and local laws and regulations apply.


Beretta—Whether you’re into busting clays, trying to find a California-compliant pistol or eager to claim a popular APX A1 pistol for yourself, Beretta’s offering rebates that run from $500 to $50—depending on firearm selected. The promotions expire either on July 31 or Aug. 31, depending on gun.
