American rifleman recently posted an article regarding whether revolvers are a good choice for self-defense — in comparison to semi-auto pistols. The article is here and worth the quick read. Here are a few of my thoughts on revolvers: A modern DAO or DA/SA revolver is incredibly simple. Once rounds are loaded into the cylinder, […]
We provide a lot of holsters for Walther PDP pistols. It’s no secret that they’re accurate, reliable, and have great triggers. We’ve handled the PMM version, and it’s quite nice. We have even fit holsters for it, including “nolight” versions. The compensator helps keep the pistol shooting flat, and the trigger is excellent. Guns.com has […]
In case you want an optics-ready 1911 with a rail, Springfield thinks they have the pistol for you: the TRP AOS 1911. Available in 45acp and 9mm, these pistols have features that the FBI Hostage Rescue Team wanted 20 years ago, along with Agency’s optic mount system. Oh yeah, 9mm is new to the lineup. […]

While not a rotating barrel design, this striker fired pistol takes full size Glock mags. Does the world need another striker fired pistol? Perhaps… James Reeves’ […]

Many years ago, we also produced holsters for revolvers. They were quite good. It got me wondering. […]
The Turkish company Girsan has released a stubby 2011 pistol chambered in either 9mm or 45acp. Both pistols feature a short 3.4″ barrel and full size grips, with 17 round capacity (9mm) and 11 round capacity (45acp). They’re dubbed the “Brat.” While I’ve not handled this particular variant, we have tested the larger size pistols […]
Taurus just announced their GX2, a striker-fired compact pistol with 13 round capacity and a rail. At the price point (I found it under $250 on the web), you might forgive that it doesn’t have an optic cut. We have provided our premium holsters for Taurus products (fitted with a light) in the past. Is […]
Laugo Arms appears ready to offer an Alien with a 4 inch barrel, a flush fit 15 round magazine, and an external safety. Though I’m not certain many people will carry a pistol this expensive ($6,308), it’s nice to have the option. Check out a video on the Alien Remus here: At 4:14 in to […]
