Savage Arms®, an iconic firearm manufacturer, is marking the first major news to the AXIS family since its relaunch in Fall 2024. The latest updates include threaded barrels across the entire Savage AXIS line up, while the AXIS 2 models now offer user-adaptable length of pull.
The new enhancement applies to all four models: AXIS 2, AXIS 2 PRO, AXIS 2 XP and AXIS XP. The threaded barrels are compatible with most aftermarket muzzle brakes and suppressors, offering shooters increased customization and performance options.
"Whether you're hunting, spending time at the range or building a more personalized rifle setup, threaded barrels and stock adjustability add meaningful versatility for shooters," said RJ Contorno, Senior Product Manager at Savage Arms. "We're excited to bring that capability to the AXIS platform."
The AXIS series has long been recognized for its affordability and accuracy, catering to a wide range of shooters from novices to experts. The addition of threaded barrels underscores Savage Arms' commitment to providing versatile and user-friendly firearms. This update allows users to tailor their shooting experience further, whether for hunting, target shooting or tactical applications.
User adaptable stocks have been part of the Savage line-up since the introduction of AccuFit in 2018. That same recoil pad spacer set-up now allows AXIS 2 users to change between a compact and full-size stock with two simple screws in the recoil pad.
The AXIS 2 model features an ergonomic stock design, a sleek bolt handle and a reliable action, ensuring consistent performance. The AXIS 2 PRO builds upon this foundation with additional enhancements like Cerakote finishes and spiral fluting, tailored for use in the toughest environments. The AXIS 2 XP models come equipped with factory-mounted and bore-sighted scopes, offering out-of-the-box accuracy. The AXIS XP provides a balanced combination of performance and value, making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious shooters.
By integrating threaded barrels across the entire AXIS lineup and stock upgrades to AXIS 2 models, Savage Arms continues to deliver on its promise of innovation and quality. Shooters can now enjoy the benefits of reduced recoil, improved accuracy and the ability to customize their rifles to meet specific needs and preferences.
