Competition

Walther Arms is now offering a long slide conversion kit for existing PPQ owners. At the same time Walther is announcing an updated version of the PPQ.

The CZC A01-LD is a high-end 9mm Luger competition pistol with an enlarged frame and extended slide and barrel built in-house by CZ Custom.

Called the 3G, it’s a straightforward build with a 16-inch heavy HBAR-profile barrel and a slick-sided extruded upper receiver and matching handguard.

MDT has recently introduced a very modular chassis for long-range precision target shooting. It’s not a budget chassis or the cheapest stock you can buy but I think it may be one of the best and most adjustable chassis on the market.

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.

With great ammo, you can turn a $400 handgun into one that shoots as well as a gun that costs many thousands. The opposite is true as well. Sometimes cheap ammo can turn a handgun that cost many thousands of dollars into one that shoots about as well as a cheap one.

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

Sig responded to the customer’s needs by releasing the MPX PCC in November 2018 with upgrades to make their platform competition ready directly from the factory. Input from the members of Sig’s shooting team and influences from the practical shooting community are obvious in the performance enhancing upgrades.

“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.
