Find Us at Booth 314

We'll be set up and ready at Booth 314 all three days.

This isn't just a display. Come by and put our rifles in your hands. Talk to us directly. Ask the hard questions about chambers, fit, performance — whatever's on your mind. We love these conversations, and there's no better way to experience a Brenton rifle than in person.

Introducing the WOOX Series 18" Adjustable Rifle

We saved something special for this show.

We're proud to introduce the Brenton USA x WOOX Series 18" Adjustable Rifle — our most distinctive rifle to date, and one of the first opportunities to see it in person will be right here at Booth 314.

What Makes It Different

The WOOX Series is built on the proven foundation of our flagship Scout platform, but it's a distinct rifle in every way that matters. The difference starts the moment you pick it up.

The handguard, grip, and stock are all crafted from the full WOOX Vigilante Kit — premium All-American Walnut. It's a bold aesthetic that sets this rifle apart from anything else on an AR platform. It feels like a hunting rifle should.

Why You Should Stop By

You can read specs all day. There's nothing like holding the rifle.

The WOOX Series is a rifle that earns a second look the moment someone picks it up. The walnut furniture, the fit, the weight — it all comes together in a way that's hard to describe and easy to feel. Booth 314 is your chance to experience it firsthand before you buy.

Our team will be there to walk you through every detail, talk chambers for your specific hunt, and answer anything you want to know about the full Brenton lineup.
