Industry News - Highland on the up again

Highland on the up again

Highland Outdoors has continued its recent expansion, adding three new brands to its roster in the last month. Firstly they will be distributing Effecto airguns from April. Part of the Turkish Huglu group and with markets in 60 countries, the team at Effecto have collective experience of over 100 years in air rifle production. Effecto pledges to all its users that they will enjoy higher efficiency and more accurate shots with all Effecto products. Taking pride in their versatility, Effecto strives to be accessible by marksmen of all ages and sizes, and aim to make its brand widely known by all audiences.

Highland will also be acting as the distributor for TriggerTech triggers TriggerTech offers the only triggers to operate without sliding friction. This departure from sliding friction enables TriggerTech to engineer the ideal release characteristics into all of its triggers.

• Zero-creep: Triggertech’s FRT triggers offer an exceptionally crisp break (like a glass rod) and guarantee that your accuracy and precision will improve.

• Reset: Triggertech’s TKR technology ensures reset is extremely short, yet remains tactile and forceful enough for you to make follow-up shots with accuracy, precision and confidence.

• Overtravel: Triggertech’s TKR Technology minimises overtravel so your sight picture experiences less disruption and sets you up for the perfect reset.

• Adjustability: Triggertech’s CLKR Technology features an easy-to-access adjustment screw that provides positive feedback, enabling you to adjust your trigger’s pull weight quickly and with full confidence.

Last but not least, and also starting in April, Highland will distribute well-known Arken Optics, headofficed in the US and manufacturing in China.

Arken scopes are designed to be rugged and protect against the introduction of tracking errors, which Arken reckons can be as high as 1.5% in some scopes after they have been used for a while. Using the best materials and the most advanced features available, Arken Optics is the first in the industry to offer a precision tracking guarantee and stand behind its products 100% by providing a Lifetime Warranty on every scope they build.

“We are hugely excited to be working with Arken Optics and have made a substantial commitment to carry a comprehensive range of their products. Exciting times ahead!” said Steve Kelly, Commercial Sales Director. www.arkenoptics.com
