Handguns

Whether the year was 1929 or 1931 – sources vary – it was nearly a century ago when Walther introduced the PPK. It was a revolutionary design at the time because of its double-action trigger and its safety which also decocked the gun.

Springfield Armory’s new 9mm XD-M Elite OSP Tactical sets a new standard in performance and features from a factory striker-fired pistol. Starting with their proven XD-M model, Springfield has refined and upgraded nearly each part of the pistol.

What we wanted and deserved is a high capacity striker fired gun, sized for the human hand. And today, that dream becomes a reality. The XDM 10mm fits all the requirements, and then some. The XDM 10 is identical in grip size to the XDM 45, which is a vastly underrated weapon.

Can the little gun from Brazil hold up against the big dogs in the industry? With a big pile of 9mm, we set out to find that answer for ourselves.

Whether your list is a bucket list, a wish list, or simply a shopping list – this is a Czech you just have to make on it.

The FNX-45 Tactical is an absolutely unique sidearm, complete down to the “Jason Bourne” grade case it ships in. With 3 high capacity magazines, military-grade design, and all the suppressor factors built-in, this one has it all.

Rock Island Armory’s AL9.0 is a six-shot revolver. The surprising part is that it is chambered in 9mm. The steel frame gives weight to the gun and the low recoil of 9mm makes it pleasant to shoot.

The Sig Sauer P320 handgun is modular by design. The ability to swap calibers, frame sizes, and more provides a versatility that is driving a massive aftermarket for parts and accessories. Building a P320 is the perfect way to get exactly the gun you want without having to buy a new gun and throw away parts.

The K6 Deep Cover fills the bill in a lot of ways. The next time you are in your local shop, give one a serious look. You might wind up going home with one.
