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. […]
A new pistol is coming to the US market. Nothing new there right. Grand Power, maker of a well-regarded rotating barrel pistol, is bringing their P24 to the US. 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’ […]
TFB has a review of the CZ P-09 Nocturne if you’re interested in the pistol. I’ve ran my Nocturne for a couple thousand rounds and have come to enjoy it. The pistol fits my hands well, and carries well even though it is a bit on the large side. The Holosun 507k mounted easily in […]
We talked with Canik at Shot regarding their newest release, the MC9 Prime. My guess is that this pistol will be popular, coming in just over $600 street price. Taking from the popular Mete MC9, the Prime provides a more aggressive grip texture, 17-round capacity, stronger slide serrations, and an integrated compensator. The pistol has […]
Smith & Wesson announced their new CSX E-Series pistol. This micro-compact single-action pistol now boasts an aluminum frame, optic-cut for Shield RMS-C or Holosun 507k mount optics, and now a modular grip. The modular grip adapter allows you to customize for better concealment or a larger grip size. Supposedly, Smith & Wesson has a feature […]
Kel-Tec has released a lightweight defensive pistol with one interesting feature for those of you in certain states. The PR57 is (you guessed it) chambered in the lightning fast 5.7 round. Due in part to the rotating barrel, this comes in at just over half the weight of the next lightest pistol chambered in 5.7mm, […]
I saw this interesting image posted on AR15.com. Perhaps Canik will have a new pistol for us again this year? It appears to be a compensated MC9L but slightly longer, and with different slide cuts and more aggressive grip stippling. I’ll have to check out the Canik booth to see if the rumor is true!
Shortening or lengthening the barrels or grips of pistols seems to result in endless variations. Springfield has another variation of their Prodigy, the “Compact.” It’s available in either 3.5″ or 4.25″ barrel configurations, and features a grip shortened to fit a 15-round magazine. The pistol also has a shortened beavertail to make it a little […]
