T/C Arms Introduces IMPACT Muzzleloader
Posted by: | Comments
Thompson/Center Arms Company, Inc., a Smith & Wesson company, continues to set the standard for quality and innovation in modern hunting rifles, with the introduction of the new IMPACT muzzleloading rifle. Engineered with a sleek and compact design, the IMPACT offers hunters all of the features they seek while delivering the accuracy and reliability that has become synonymous with the Thompson/Center name.
Designed for durability and operational simplicity, the IMPACT features a new sliding hood breech that provides for easy cleaning via access to the removable breech plug with a simple pull of the ambidextrous lever. The rifle has also been designed with youth and smaller frame shooters in mind, especially the development of the IMPACT’s rugged composite stock. Capable of adjusting length of pull from 12.5 to 13.5 inches, the IMPACT can easily be modified to meet the needs of individual shooters. The IMPACT also employs Thompson/Center’s patented hammer and trigger mechanism for quick, safe and simple operation.
