There aren’t a lot of new pistols dropping this summer, so I was surprised when I heard Sig Sauer had a new product that wasn’t just a variant of an existing product. Sig introduced their P211-GTO today. At $2300 without optic, the pistol has quite a few interesting features, including: If you want a more […]
Some things are forever right? You can depend on them being there. Like diamonds. And taxes. And the Glock 17 Gen4. Except the last one of those items. Glock is discontinuing a slew of pistols, including the Glock 17 Gen4 and the Glock 17 Gen4 / Gen5 MOS. Along with some of those semi-popular pistols, […]
I know a number of our customers use a thumb rest on their pistols. In general, thumb rests promote a strong left-hand grip for right-hand shooters; it provides something extra to clamp on to. Thumb rests were popularized on the Sig Sauer P320, but have propagated across many pistols. In the next week or two, […]
I’m a fan of DA/SA pistols. The mechanism provides an extra layer of protection for when holstering. When out training for hours, it’s possible to miss that piece of brass inside the holster mouth, or a shirt bunched up in the trigger guard area. But DA / SA pistols provide the ability to holster with […]
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 […]
