“The NWTF Convention is the perfect opportunity for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts to experience the latest innovations from RETAY firsthand,” commented JP Fischer, VP of Sales for Banshee Brands, Inc. “We’re excited to showcase our new lineup and connect with the hunting community.”
RETAY’s Gordion Rifled Slug Gun redefines performance and reliability with cutting-edge engineering designed for serious hunters and sport shooters. Utilizing a modern deep bore drilling process, it produces an exceptionally straight barrel, eliminating the stress and structural weaknesses often found in traditionally hammer-forged barrels. This results in a stronger, more accurate barrel with dense shot placement. At its core, the Gordion features RETAY’s patented Inertia Plus™ Bolt System, a revolutionary advancement that actively rotates and locks the bolt head into battery, ensuring flawless cycling in any condition—marking the biggest leap in inertia-driven shotgun technology in 50 years. Engineered for durability, the shotgun boasts an aerospace-grade 7075 aluminum alloy receiver, offering exceptional strength without unnecessary weight. It comes standard with a cantilevered Picatinny rail mount and iron rifle sights, delivering versatility and precision for a variety of shooting applications. Oversized controls allow for easy handling, even with gloves or in harsh environments, while integrated sling mounts ensure effortless carry. Unlike many competitors, RETAY maintains a plastic-free design for key components, including the receiver, trigger, and trigger guard, ensuring long-lasting, seamless operation in the field. Available in 12ga and 20ga, the Gordion ensures superior accuracy with every shot, making it a trusted choice for serious hunters and homeowners alike.
The Air Control Extreme (ACE) and ACE TYPE R Shotguns represent the next evolution of RETAY’s Inertia Plus™ system, incorporating 16 advanced features for superior performance. Building on the proven reliability of the Masai Mara, these shotguns offer waterfowl hunters the ultimate combination of precision, durability, and value. The ACE TYPE R features an enhanced raised receiver for optimized handling and a smoother shooting experience. Both models are available in 12ga, 20ga, and 28ga configurations.
The RETAY Gordion Turkey is a high-performance semi-automatic shotgun engineered for reliability across diverse shooting conditions. Featuring RETAY’s advanced “Straight Line” Inertia Transfer Action and “Inertia Plus” bolt system, it delivers consistent, flawless operation. Built with a durable, single-piece alloy receiver, the Gordion Turkey also incorporates RETAY’s patented “Easy Out” Magazine Unloading system for added convenience. Equipped with a precision deep bore barrel, available in both 12ga and 20ga configurations, this shotgun ensures accurate shot placement, making it an excellent choice for both hunters and competitive shooters.
The GPS-XL (Geometric Pump System) pump-action shotgun is built for uncompromising performance in the field. Chambered in 12ga 3.5”, it delivers the power and versatility serious hunters demand. Featuring RETAY’s exclusive floating-forearm technology, along with a dual slide rail and dual latch action, the GPS-XL ensures ultra-fast cycling for quick follow-up shots when every second counts. Designed for superior accuracy and durability, the GPS-XL boasts a fully drilled barrel with an elongated forcing cone for improved pattern density, interchangeable chokes, and a dovetail optics mount.
RETAY’S newest handgun, the RXP22 Pistol is a semi-automatic .22LR pistol built for training and recreational shooting. Designed with a 9mm-like feel, the RXP22 features a compact polymer frame with integrated grip texturing, a smooth double/single action hammer-fired design, and manual safety. The RXP22 boasts a precision-drilled, chrome-finished AISI 4140 steel barrel for superior accuracy and longevity, surpassing typical low-quality barrels. It also includes a threaded barrel for suppressor attachment, an optic-ready slide with pre-drilled holes for RMR and RMSC optics, and a universal mounting plate for a wide range of optics. The RXP22 offers high-quality performance at an affordable price, making it a reliable option for shooters of all skill levels.
Dennis Loosier (Dr. Duck) and Billy Campbell have been waterfowl hunting together for nearly 30 years. Born and raised in East Texas, Dr. Duck developed his passion for hunting while exploring public lands and migratory bird patterns. His dedication to scouting and conservation has led to great success in the field. Today, Dr. Duck owns an air conditioning business but spends much of his time traveling across multiple states, pursuing waterfowl with Campbell. He also hosts the popular DR DUCK YouTube waterfowl hunting show, sharing insights and experiences with fellow hunters.
The National Wild Turkey Federation Convention & Sport Show is an annual gathering celebrating conservation, hunting heritage, and outdoor camaraderie.
