Hickok45, “Shooting and showing a very nice 1911, the Warren Tactical Springfield Operator in 9mm.”

This article is something of a shootout between my favorite (and cheap at $400) night vision scope and an interesting new digital night vision product that was made from a converted IR CCTV camera. In my experience, digital night vision normally isn’t worth the inflated pricetag. I’ve even declined to review the couple “clip on” models that I’ve tried because they were just too expensive for what you get. This product, called Digital Crosshairs, is also a clip on that uses your existing scope. But at only $400-$575, it is at least arguably worth the price.

From the Miculek Channel, “Anybody can hit a target at 400 off of a bench- so Jerry mixes it up by picking his up and shooting 3 targets off-hand at 400 yards in under 4.4 seconds!”

Accuracy X is hardly a household name. Tucked in the foothills of the Appalachians in western Virginia, the company is known more for its competition guns than it tactical 1911s.

When you think of Sig Sauer pistols, you think of classic double/single-action. What you don’t think of is striker-fired. While the new P320 clearly inherits some ideas and inspiration from the modular Sig P250 design, the action is all new. It’s a constant action, striker-fired pistol, complete with the internal safeties you would expect in a striker design. And the modularity will allow you to easily swap between calibers and frame sizes.
