Action shooters who have attended the Bianchi Cup in the last few years are familiar with H&M Blacknitride. The company has announced they are now sponsoring sixteen-time Bianchi Cup Champion Doug Koenig.

Koenig has won over 70 National and World Championships has competed professionally for 26 years. Koenig places a high emphasis in only using equipment that will enhance his performance on the shooting range. The pro shooter's S&W Performance Center DK .38 Super 1911 pistol will be blacknitrided and will debut at the U.S. National Steel Championships.

Koenig said, “It was the right choice to partner with H&M Blacknitride this year. My pistol is exposed to unpredictable weather conditions during a competition season along with the thousands of rounds I put down the barrel. H&M Blacknitride will now protect the integrity of my firearm.”

Shade McMillen, Vice President of H&M Blacknitride said, “We’re looking forward to working with Doug and following his full competition season, as Doug now joins Bruce Piatt, Tony Holmes and completes our circle of world champion shooters.”

Koenig, Piatt and Holmes will be available at the H&M Blacknitride Booth #1919. Visitors can learn how their guns run smoother. See the full schedule below.

Doug Koenig:  Wed. 1/20/16 from 4-4:30 pm, Thurs. 1/21/16 from 9-9:30 am
