GunsAmerica Product Reviews – Pistols

The XDE from Langdon Tactical Technologies is a heck of a shooter. Springfield Armory built a terrific little hammer-fired gun, and Ernest Langdon perfected it.

Ruger has long been a leader in handguns, at least in terms of numbers. But while they have been the King of Rimfire, and arguably single-action revolvers, in my opinion, their polymer guns left something to be desired. That really started changing about 4 years ago, with the advent of the

The SAR K12 Sport, a purpose built race gun for the mind boggling MSRP of $812. But does it perform? Prepare to have your socks rocked off. Yes, it does.
