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.

nightforce NX8 1-8x24 F1

10/28/2019

 
Picture
This from the Nightforce website:

The NX8 1-8x24 F1 is a class leading, compact and lightweight riflescope optimized for short to mid-range shooting. At only 8.75“ in length and 17 ounces, this riflescope adds minimal size and weight but delivers superior optics and trusted Nightforce performance to any rifle.

With the daylight visible center red dot users can engage targets with speed like a red-dot sight, but as targets increase in distance the intelligent FC-Mil and FC-MOA first focal plane reticles provide precise hold points. For those preferring to dial for long shots, the ZeroStop elevation adjustment allows for a rapid and positive return to zero. Adjustments are a true .2 Mil-Radian or .50 MOA. To aid in fast magnification adjustments, a built-in Power Throw Lever (PTL) is included.

Dan wesson DWX: 1911 and CZ sire a son! $1700

10/25/2019

 
Picture
They call it an experiment but we say the DWX is the spectacular spawn of an illicit union between two unrivaled legends! This from the DW website:

It started as an experiment — a grand melding of Dan Wesson and CZ pistols. Borrowing the crisp single action fire control group of a DW 1911 and combining it with the ergonomics and capacity of a CZ, the resulting pistol emerged as something great.

Designed initially for competition use, the DWX has evolved into much more than that, with both full-size and compact variants. Its locked breech barrel system is simple, ditching the standard 1911 link system and using CZ-style takedown via the slide stop. The easier take-down will be familiar to any hammer-fired CZ owner, as is removing the Match-grade barrel due to the bushing-less barrel system that resembles a P-10 or P-09/P-07. Double-stack magazines boost the capacity of the full-size to 19+1 with flush bases, and many standard 1911 parts enable gunsmiths and competitive shooters to tune the X just the way they like it. Sights are easily customized, using a 1911-style dovetailed sight in the front and a CZ Shadow 2 style sight cut in the rear.

With the grip angle and contours that have made the CZ 75 a stand-out in the realm of pistol ergonomics, the DWX is a natural fit to most hands. The full-size DWX uses standard CZ 75 grips, while the compact DWX uses those from a 75 Compact. Corresponding magwells for the 75 series are compatible as well.

With so many ways to tune and customize, the DWX is sure to shine in USPSA Limited Division!
Full-size DWX pistols use a magazine based on the P-09/P-10 F, while compact variants use that of a 75 Compact.

colt 1911 black army. MSRP: $999

10/19/2019

 
Picture
This from the Colt website:

Throughout American History, Colt’s weapons have given American Servicemen the ability and confidence to succeed in combat. A reproduction based on the original blueprints of the WWI Model 1911 U.S. Military sidearm, this vintage limited run is an accurate reproduction of the design after the early 1918 “Black Army.” In order to increase production for the US Military needs during WWI, the standard Carbonia Blue finish was changed to a finish that was almost black, hence the “Black Army”.

Today's Black Army features a matte blued finish; Colt's Series 70 firing system; original rollmarks and inspector marks; 5” barrel with wide hood; smooth, straight mainspring housing with lanyard loop; WWI-style manual thumb and grip safety; a tapered blade front sight; forged knurled slide stop; and knurled thumb safety and magazine catch.

RUGER PC CARBINE 9MM CHASSIS RIFLE. MSRP $799

10/13/2019

 
Picture
Comes in one standard and two state-compliant variants: the standard model comes with a 1/2″-28 threaded barrel and one 17-round magazine. One state-compliant package comes with a 10-round magazine, threaded barrel and telescoping stock and the second state-compliant package comes with a 10-round magazine, non-threaded barrel and fixed stock for those states with strict restrictions. We'd like to see a fixed barrel pistol variant (8" threaded barrel) with a folding pistol brace. This from their website on the standard package:
  • CNC-milled handguard that is Type III hard-coat anodized aluminum for maximum durability, with Magpul® M-LOK® accessory attachment slots on all four sides for easy mounting of M-LOK-compatible rails and accessories.
  • Factory-installed, barrel-mounted picatinny rail allows for the forward mounting of optics.
  • Interchangeable magazine wells for use of common Ruger® and Glock® magazines. Ships with SR-Series™/Security-9® pistol magazine well installed and an additional magazine well accepting Glock® magazines is included*. Ruger American® Pistol magazine wells are available at ShopRuger.com.
  • Easy takedown enables quick separation of the barrel/forend assembly from the action for ease of transportation and storage. Takedown is as simple as locking the bolt back and verifying that the rifle is unloaded, pushing a recessed lever, twisting the subassemblies and pulling them apart.
  • Dead blow action features a custom tungsten dead blow weight that shortens bolt travel and reduces felt recoil and muzzle rise. Bolt is machined from heat treated, chrome-moly steel to ensure strength, structural integrity and durability.
  • Reversible magazine release and reversible charging handle to support ambidextrous use or one-handed control manipulation while maintaining a proper firing grip*.
  • Cold hammer-forged, chrome-moly steel barrel with ultra-precise rifling provides exceptional accuracy and longevity. The heavy contour barrel provides consistent accuracy, while barrel fluting sheds unnecessary weight and allows for quick handling.
  • Threaded barrel with included thread protector allows for use of standard muzzle accessories.
  • Chassis system features a flared magwell for improved magazine reloading capabilities as well as integrated, rear-mounted QD cups.
  • Lower receiver is fitted with a six-position, telescoping, Magpul® MOE® buttstock on a proprietary receiver extension capable of accepting both commercial and Mil-Spec aftermarket stocks.
  • Ergonomic pistol grip features an extended trigger reach for more precise trigger control.
  • Glass-filled polymer chassis system, with integrated rear 7075-T6 aluminum picatinny rail, allows for the mounting of standard AR grips and picatinny rail-mountable stocks or extensions.
  • Light, crisp trigger pull with minimal overtravel and positive reset utilizing proven 10/22® trigger components.
  • CNC-machined from an aerospace-grade 7075-T6 aluminum billet, the receiver includes an integrated Picatinny-style† rail and is Type III hard-coat anodized for maximum durability.
  • Also includes: one, SR-Series™ pistol magazine and hex wrenches for disassembly of the chassis and aluminum handguard, as well as removal of the charging handle.

standard manufacturing s333 thunderstruck

10/7/2019

 
Picture
Very interesting design! MSRP is $369....this from their website:

The S333 
Thunderstruck™ sets the standard for the ultimate in personal protection by simultaneously firing two rounds of .22 Win Mag with each pull of the trigger. With four pulls of the trigger, eight rounds are fired in only three seconds.

By combining standard ammunition and birdshot, each pull of the trigger will deliver an incredible combination of firepower and very light recoil.

The S333 Thunderstruck™ is incredibly reliable because it functions as a Double Action Revolver. These Revolvers are far more superior to any other automatic pistol which are rendered useless when they jam or misfire. Additionally, the two shots per pull, with four pulls of the trigger, makes the S333 Thunderstruck™ the most redundant and reliable personal protection firearm when your life is on the line.

The S333 Thunderstruck™ also features an articulated safety integral into the trigger and requires a deliberate and full pull of the trigger before the transfer bar will clear from the firing pins and hammers. The resulting S333 Thunderstruck™ is the safest personal protection firearm available.

Our patented design of the S333  Thunderstruck™ is the most compact and concealable firearm imaginable of its type. The small size allows it to be carried in your pocket or purse and can be easily retrieved when needed.

The ergonomic design of the S333 Thunderstruck™ features a comfortable polymer grip, intuitive controls, and no clumsy safety. This makes the S333 Volleyfire™ the ideal choice in personal protection when your life depends on it.
Specifications:Caliber .22 Win Mag.

Capacity 8 Rounds.
Barrel Length 1 1/4.
Cylinder Material High Strength Steel.
System Double Barrel Double Action Revolver, Two Rounds Fired With Each Pull of the Trigger. Frame Material 7075 Aircraft Grade Aluminum with Anodized Finish Safety Integral Articulated Trigger Safety, Transfer Bar Blocks Firing Pins From Hammers
Barrel Material Steel
Grip Polymer
Weight 18 oz

farrowtech CP33 Telescoping brace Adapter

10/4/2019

 
Picture
The Farrowtech adapter, pictured above, bolts onto the rear of your CP33 and allows the attachment of the Gearheadworks Tailhook Pistol Brace. When the brace is attached your CP33 will resemble the one pictured below (providing you have a suppressor stamp and a couple of high-priced optics, that is).
Picture
The Farrowtech adapter will cost you $125 and the Tailhook brace will cost you $100 so all-in-all you can have this ultra cool telescoping non-buttstock contraption for around $250 with shipping. I have to say this setup is exactly what I envisioned when the KelTec CP33 first released so I'm happy it's now feasible and I predict hours of funnery at the range for those who go for it. ED

Rehv Arms Adapter for the CP33 22 Pistol

10/1/2019

 
Picture
We didn't have to wait long before someone came up with an 1913/Picatinny adapter for the new CP33 - this allows the owner to attach a folding pistol brace of the type made by Sig or SB Tactical. Rehv Arms has machined a nifty little widget that bolts right onto the rear end of your pistol (shown in raw aluminum in this photo but comes Cerakoted black) and allows the true potential of this innovative rimfire semi-auto to be utilized.
