NEW FIREARMS & ACCESSORIES

We make every attempt to only preview new products when they are actually available on the market. This spares consumers from wasting time trying to locate an item to buy when it hasn't yet left the prototype phase. Please note that during SHOT Show (January of each year) manufacturers often announce new items that are several months from stores: we still announce these despite not being immediately available for purchase.

heritage mfg rr rancher 22lr. msrp 297

1/29/2020

This is exactly what it looks like: a 16.125" barreled version of the Heritage Rough Rider. And it looks good, and I'd definitely buy one if my previous experiences with the Rough Rider hadn't been...um...so rough. I do think a low cost 22 single action revolver is a must in today's market, and Heritage fits the bill, and they've probably sold hundreds of thousands of them, however mine broke after only a few hundred rounds (hand-spring snapped, couldn't get through to Heritage for the replacement part, ordered a replacement from Gunparts which turned out to actually be for an EMF revolver, and wouldn't fit....suffice to say my Rough Rider is now a paperweight). I bought it and was prepared to love it as something I could throw in a backpack or a glove box or anywhere it may get scuffed. And I don't have any objection to a gun that has poor finish and slightly irregular fit, just so long as it shoots without malfunction, and it's inexpensive, and TOUGH as nails. The innards should be made to last generations, not just a box of 300 rounds. That said, if I hear from them that they've ruggedized their lockwork with quality steel parts, and increased capacity to at least 8 rounds (and want to send me a new hand-spring) then I'll return as a customer and advocate. And then the Rancher will definitely be on my list as a wee-roustabout-the-woods gun.

TYPE B Pistol (website)

The Flagship pistol of Archon Firearms, the Type B, features the ground-breaking AF-Speedlock technology. This new unique style of barrel lockup allows the firearm to sit lower in the hand providing the lowest bore axis of any current production pistol. The resulting effect is a completely different shooting experience.
On the Type B, the AF-Speedlock is mated with many features that are not offered by any competitor out of the box. The following features come standard on every Archon Type B pistol:
  • Fiber optic front sight with blacked out rear cut from billet steel. The slide uses a standard Glock dovetail and front sight for ease of change if preferred.
  • Front and rear cocking serrations.
  • AF-Speedlock locking mechanism.
  • Match-grade traditionally rifled barrel coated in black nitride.
  • Three stage recoil rod with uncaptured main spring (for ease of service and tuning)
  • Inner-frame milled from billet steel featuring full length rails.
  • Integrated beavertail with featured contour to activate tendon in hand for better grip.
  • Integrated picatinny rail for weapon attachments up front.
  • Full metal, flat-faced, short reset trigger.
  • Oversized trigger guard for use with gloved fingers.
  • Metal magazine release that is easily reversible for left-handed shooters.
  • Innovative Grip Mapping texture designed to actively fight the direction the gun wants to rotate during recoil.
  • Integrated magwell.
  • Full metal magazine with baseplate designed for ergonomic loading with grid pattern for ease of marking.
The Type B ships standard with the following items:
  • Four (4) Magazines
  • Malterra designed high quality range bag made with 500D Nylon
  • Silver AF USA Permanent Marker (for marking magazines)
  • EEXOX gun oil
  • California Compliant Safety Lock
  • User Manual
The Type B is currently available with the following options:
  • Black Nitride Slide
  • PVD FDE Slide (+) $52.50 USD
  • Fiber Optic Target Sights
  • AFR8 Night Sights (+) $103.95 USD
The Type B truly represents Archon Firearms commitment to redefining the industry standards by driving new levels of technology, performance, ergonomics and functionality never seen before.
All Type B pistols are backed by Archon’s lifetime warranty.

patriot ordnance factory (POF) rebel 22lr

1/26/2020

 
Picture
REALLY interesting mini AR derivative from POF, in 22LR with an 8" threaded barrel, adjustable brace from Mission First Tactical (MFT website), takes Ruger 10/22 mags, has an integral monolithic M-Lok handguard and weighs only 3.25lbs. It breaks down like an AR and can accept AR grips and triggers. MSRP $650, Street $550+. This from their website:

Get ready for the most fun you’ve had with a .22LR.  Brand new for 2020 we bring you the Rebel. To say that we are extra excited about this one would be an understatement. We have yet to have someone shoot the Rebel and not walk away with big smiles. Our love of shooting, training, and prepping future shooters were the driving factors of development. We had to bring a quality to this platform which hasn’t been seen before. Aside from its light weight, the Rebel is equipped with a Mission First Tactical arm brace and threaded barrel with thread protector. The receiver accepts AR-15 pattern stock and brace options, and the trigger and selector are also compatible with AR-15 options.

henry answers the prayers of levergun fans

1/25/2020

 
Picture
Not only is Anthony Imperato one of the nicest guys in the industry but he listens (and responds) to the appeals and requests of his devotees! A couple of years ago we wrote to Mr Imperato requesting the features you see on the rifle above, and he replied "Thanks for your email, watch this space." Clearly plenty others implored him also because lo and behold Henry just launched the new Big Boy X line at this years SHOT Show in Vegas. True to Vegas' gambling spirit I'm betting everything that this'll be one hot seller among fans of the levergun platform for uses outside the cowboy action shooting arena (CASS require guns with original/traditional features). For the modern civilian outdoorsman - who is not partial to the AR - this original assault rifle promises to be the zenith of practicality and power. I’d rather have a Henry 45-70 or 44MAG over my shoulder than any AR in the American wilderness because I know so long as I can place one good heavy round on target I’m fairly likely to implement a full-stop to the threat, no matter how large or pissed off it is. To illustrate this point further I had a neighbor a few years back who was a Vietnam Army Ranger vet who’d fallen foul to a friendly fire incident around the time of the Tet Offensive. He and his team had just detonated an NVA ammo dump and were retreating back to the forest along a dyke when a Cobra gunship came over the brow, mistook them for Vietcong and strafed them. He and one of his team were thrown into the rice paddy, whereupon he dragged the other guy to safety despite bleeding from eight through-and-throughs. Both survived though he spent a year in a Japanese hospital before being sent home with two Purple Hearts. He was one tough son of a gun, and smart, and went on to start a Fortune 500 company in California. Anyway, he was over visiting me in my garage one day where I’d been reloading some 45-70 extreme penetrators and he picked one up to inspect it: “Damn!” he said, “I’d rather have been hit by my eight 7.62mm’s than a single one of these!” From the horses mouth, that just about says it all. The new badass Big Boy X rifles come in all the large calibers from 45-70 to 38spl so whatever your application there’s one for you, and they all boast that exciting new Henry feature of loading gate PLUS loading tube allowing for safe extraction of unfired roads . MSRP is $970 dollars but I’m seeing street price at around $700 which is a heck of a deal for an all-American made rifle that’s tapped for a scope, has hi-vis fiber optic iron sights, a black synthetic stock with swivel studs, a large loop lever, M-Lok and Picatinny rails and has a threaded trapper-length barrel. From personal experience I can tell you if you buy a bone stock Marlin guide gun and add those features via a skilled gunsmith, you’re looking at spending around $1200-$1500. So, if you’re in the market for a 21st Century levergun, then Henry has just provided the apex configuration for true-grit outdoorsmen and I unreservedly predict outstanding sales for this remarkable New Jersey gunmaker. As far as I'm concerned, this is the most exciting new product to debut at SHOT this year, hands down....just sayin'. GOM. Visit the Henry Website here!

B&T usw chassis for 2 popular 9mm brands

1/24/2020

 
Picture
Swiss gunmakers Brugger & Thomet have announced at this years SHOT Show that they'll be releasing USW chassis for two popular 9mm platforms, adding to their own USW-A1, (top left): Glock 17/19 and the Sig M17/320 (black or FDE). They also now have an excellent new US website and will be releasing a range of pistol caliber carbines that'll be hitting the civilian market later this year (more about those soon). This from their website on the USW's pictured above:

GLOCK:
A revolutionary enhancement for the popular Glock 17 and 19 pistols with standard rails (Gen 3-5), the USW-G quickly and easily converts these 9mm pistols into the Universal Weapon configuration complete with folding stock for added stability. Each model comes equipped with an Aimpoint NANO® Micro Red Dot Sight and spring loaded folding stock.

SIG M17/320: The revolutionary USW concept from B&T is now also available for the P320 and M17 from SIG SAUER. The practical polymer conversion kit transforms a normal P320 or M17 (full-size or compact) in less than two minutes into a USW-320 with integrated stock. Just transfer the trigger group, the slide and the magazine release onto the USW-320 or M17 frame. The USW-320 and USW-M17 lowers equal the full-size P320 and M17 lowers, so 17 round magazines (and bigger) can be used.

The Walther Q4 SF (Steel Frame) in standard and optics ready configuration, this from the Walther website:

Outmatched by no one. Walther continues their tradition of superiority with a handgun designed specifically for those who only buy the best and nothing less. This is the ultimate representation of high-class performance in a conceal carry package that just can’t be found anywhere else.

A feat in firearm engineering that simply must be felt to be believed, the Q4 Steel Frame will surpass all expectations with its unrivaled accuracy and performance. Its steel frame – precision machined from solid steel billet – improves ergonomics with a wrap-around grip panel, extended beavertail, full length picatinny rail and recessed slide release. The weight distribution of the steel frame drastically reduces recoil to improve shooter performance, ultimately contributing to overall efficiency.

A testament to Walther’s enduring legacy of excellence, the Q4 Steel Frame delivers peak performance when you need it most. Featuring Walther’s legendary barrel, phosphoric sights as well as front and rear serrations, the advantages this handgun delivers are undeniable.

SCCY have been making quality, affordable compact 380acp and 9mm pistols for some years (over 500,000 units since 1998) and have really toiled to iron out reliability, safety and customer desires in a small concealable package. I honestly admire the fact that Tool & Die maker Mr Roebuck has stuck to his guns (so to speak) and really focused on a single platform with a nice array of options to meet different shooters' requirements. Personally I like a manual safety and have never had an issue with forgetting to disable it upon draw - of all the companies producing polymer handguns these days, SCCY is one of only a couple of manufacturers who provide this feature on a DAO pistol (Ruger being the other).  Now SCCY has been everyone else to the punch by releasing a top rate EDC 9mm with a crimson trace red dot installed for under $350!!! What's more to say, these will move faster than fresh apple cider donuts on a cold autumn day! Kudos. This from their website: 

Magazine: Includes (2) double stack, 10 round capacity magazines with finger extension base installed and 2 additional flat magazine bases.

Barrel: Machined from bar stock with 7 lands and grooves having a 1:16 right-hand twist.

Receiver: 7075‐T6 aircraft grade heat treated aluminum alloy, machined from bar stock.

Slide: Quality Stainless Steel available with Natural Stainless or Black Nitride finish.

Grip & Frame: Made from Zytel polymer, with ergonomic finger grooves and an integral “RE-COIL CUSHION” on the back‐strap.

Recoil System: All steel, fully encapsulated for ease of disassembly and reassembly.

Slide Lock/Release: Steel with a Zytel over molded polymer extension for ease of operation.

Hammer Firing System: Double-action only, internal hammer with inertial firing pin to prevent accidental discharge if dropped.

Double Action Trigger: Specifically designed for shooter comfort and accuracy by designing the system to have a smooth effortless, consistent 9-pound trigger pull.

Trigger Lock: Custom designed to properly fit and be child resistant. Includes 2 keys.

RUGER lcp ii in 22lr w/ lite rack. msrp:$349

1/4/2020

 
Picture
Albeit lite rack, online reviews report light strikes - the two may be connected. 22LR typically requires a stout hammer to ignite the primer so it could be the lightly sprung slide isn't allowing for precise breach closure...however, I'm certain Ruger will fix this issue in the coming months and this will be a top seller for them. This is something I actually spoke to Keltec about a few years back, a 22LR version of their P32 which is an excellent pistol and highly concealable, but they didn't seem interested in the idea and I think they've missed the boat here. Ruger just can't quit innovating and for that I respect them, profoundly. Now, I've been hoping they'll come up with a grip replacement with brace adapter, or a brace-ready-upper version of their MK IV to give shooters the chance to squeeze the maximum accuracy out that stellar weapon. This from the Ruger website:

The gun gods raise the python from the dead!

Finally, something all revolver aficionados have been waiting for, the Odin's sword, the Holy Grail of handguns, the revered Colt Python in 357 MAG. And it comes in the two choice barrel lengths of 4.25" and 6". And it's stainless. And exquisite. What's more to say. If you own one heirloom sidearm, it should be this. California, Massachusetts and Maryland should weep in misery for being denied this icon of DA/SA revolver excellence. MSRP: $1499 and it's likely it'll hold close to this price online too.

This is an exceptional video on this new offering by an old revolver pro:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=HrLYZruNw_g

This from the Colt website: 

Building on Colt’s Snake Gun legacy, the legendary double-action revolver returns in stainless steel in 4.25” and 6” barrel lengths. The 2020 Python features modern stainless steel alloys and a re-designed rear sight. Thirty percent more steel beneath the rear adjustable target sight gives you a stronger revolver and more robust shooting experience. A recessed target crown, user-interchangeable front sight, and Walnut grip with the iconic Colt medallion make this a gun you’ll want to shoot AND show off. The Python is chambered in .357 Magnum and also accommodates 38 Special cartridges. 

CCP M2 .380. MSRP: $469

Picture
This from the Walther website:

Easy to rack, tool-less takedown, reduced recoil. Maximum efficiency. Minimal effort. An achievement born from an unabating commitment to excellence. All in the most comfortable and accessible firearm offered in the market today.

The CCP M2 handgun series represents the next step in the pursuit of perfection at Walther. Before the CCP, the only available easy to rack handgun was the .380 ACP. Once again pushing beyond the boundaries of expectations to meet this demand, Walther released the extraordinary CCP M2 9mm pistol.

The CCP – or Concealed Carry Pistol – is the first polymer pistol with Softcoil gas technology. This technology improves the user’s experience by reducing overall felt recoil and allowing the slide to be easily manipulated regardless of hand strength. The CCP is also the most ergonomic and comfortable handgun in Walther’s dynamic concealed carry lineup. Tool-less takedown and a fixed barrel allow for easy cleaning and maintenance, making this one of the most accessible pistols available today.

With additional popular features such as an external safety, front, and rear slide serrations and a reversible magazine release, the CCP M2 handgun is sure to become a valuable addition to your everyday carry.
