ACCOKEEK, MD — Stoeger, a trusted name in reliable, hardworking firearms, is proud to announce that its latest video, "The Opener", produced by Reckoning Media and filmmaker Jamieson Crast, has just surpassed 500,000 views on YouTube. As we roll into the waterfowl hunting season, this milestone couldn’t come at a better time, especially as Stoeger celebrates 100 years of being by hunters’ sides through thick and thin.

The Opener isn’t just another hunting video. It’s a tribute to all those who rise before dawn, who know the weight of tradition, and who are proud to pass it down from generation to generation. The video brings viewers along for the ride as hunters prepare for that first shot of the season, with everything from early morning coffee to the sound of wings cutting through the cold air.

"We're celebrating a century of building guns that hunters can depend on, and hitting half a million views on The Opener shows just how strong our community is," said Nick Andrews, Stoeger's Marketing Director. "This isn’t just about the numbers—it's about connecting with folks who live for the tradition of waterfowl hunting. They’re the heart and soul of what we do."

As Stoeger hits its 100-year mark, the company remains focused on delivering shotguns that get the job done season after season. The Opener stands as a reminder of why Stoeger has been trusted for so long. This video isn't just celebrating a season—it’s celebrating every hunter who's ever climbed into a blind, put in the work, and come home with stories worth telling.
