Beretta is expanding their time-tested 92 series with five new models that make up the new line of 92X guns all chambered for 9mm Luger.

Israel Weapon Industries is now shipping the Masada, a full-size polymer-framed, striker-fired pistol chambered for 9mm Luger.

Every new gun evaluation always seems to wind up focusing on one key element of the firearm. For some it’s the trigger, other times it might be aesthetics or accuracy. And although this is the first polymer-framed pistol that SIG has branded with their LEGION moniker, the moment I picked it up I knew what this story would be all about – it’s weight!

Glock updated their E.U. website with two new Model 43X and 48 Slimline pistols, now with accessory rails for weapon lights and laser sights.

The Elite LTT (Langdon Tactical Technology) was introduced by Beretta in 2018. In a brilliant move, Big Beretta let genius firearms trainer, Ernest Langdon, design a handgun. I don’t use the “G” word lightly. The Elite LTT is recognized in the highest Beretta Circles as the ultimate 92.

Since 2010, Florida based Diamondback Firearms has been producing their ultra-small DB380 and DB9 pocket pistols. Diamondback recently added the compact double-stack AM2 9mm to their line which should appeal to those shopping for something larger with additional ammunition capacity.

SIG Sauer is updating their polymer-framed, striker-fired P320 series with a new XFIVE model for competition and improved Professional slide assemblies.

Hunting hogs with handguns is challenging. It adds a layer of interest and skill to a pastime normally undertaken with rifles. If you holster a handgun instead of slapping a magazine into your AR-15, being close isn’t just a fun test of your talent. It’s a necessity.

“That’s a 40?” and “That thing shoots soft” are the most often heard remarks after putting a couple of mags of 40S&W downrange with the just-released MAC (Metro Arms Corp) 3011 SLD (Standard Long Dust cover) Tactical pistol.
