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.

serbu gb-22 plans. $12

Mark Serbu is one of those outside-the-box designers that only materialize from time-to-time. After receiving his BA in Mechanical Engineering, he launched Serbu Firearms as a Class-2 manufacturer in 1995 and has been innovating ever since. In the early 2000's he built his first Super Shorty Shotguns on the Mossberg and Remington 870 actions - they were greatly sought after and commissioned by the military, SWAT and LEO departments - the success of these was what undoubtedly inspired Mossberg and Remington to make their own iterations. Due to a three year backlog of orders the company now primarily focus on their three 50BMG designs (the RN-50 break action, the BFG-50A semi-auto and the BFG-50 single-shot) so I can only imagine the frustration for a compulsive inventor to be shackled to a CNC machine cranking out duplicates. Anyway, the GB-22 pictured above was whimsically released by Mark on Youtube amid the gun buyback scheme in 2016 and instantly went viral with over a million views. All-in-all over 1,000 copies of the plans have been bought by folks (with various degrees of metal-shop skills) from all over the world - though I doubt there'd be anything illegal in buying the plans, I'd encourage any purchaser to check local laws before actually assembling a homemade pistol - there are an increasing number of places where this will land you in the clink. That aside it's an incredibly clever, ultra simple, 4-part, single-shot firearm that can be gussied up according to your proclivities, available tools and metalwork proficiency. Check it out on their WEBSITE.
