Black Collar Arms has released three new products this year at SHOT; the Priapus Grip, Black Box Magazine, and the Desperado. If you aren’t familiar with them, Black Collar Arms is a firearm manufacturing company based in Central Texas that knows how to have fun marketing their products while still releasing useful and innovative firearms and parts.

Kahr Firearms Group has a few updates to some existing product lines, including their new Art Gun Series, new Cerakote finish options for the Desert Eagle pistols, a fancy limited edition Desert Eagle from the custom shop, and some new Thompson rifles.

Oracle Arms is a brand-new company with a unique product that they released this year. This gun is called the Oracle Arms 2311 and it’s a pistol that is still in the prototyping stage.

For example, it can take measurements such as the sideways pressure that you are putting on the trigger shoe and the amount of weight that you used to pull the trigger.

The PTR 63 is a new prototype roller-delayed weapon chambered in 5.56 that will hopefully be available around June of this year. PTR is a clone manufacturer based in our very own Aynor, South Carolina that has been producing great products for over 15 years.

Shadow Systems makes top-tier products and they’ve added two new offerings this year that debuted at SHOT Show.

The Chiappa Little Badger is known for its small size and loud bark because it is a diminutive and lightweight package that could get you through a wilderness survival situation.

Hornady has released a few new products this year, but the ones that we found most interesting didn’t have anything to do with ammunition.

At Industry Day at the Range, I shot the MSM using Parker Bullets and hit a small target at 350 yards in 20-30 MPH desert winds. No lie!
