New for 2017, Springfield is introducing the XD Mod.2 in a 4” Service Model. This gun was clearly designed to fit into multiple roles, such as a duty gun, concealed carry or competition.

The Hi Power 9mm from Nighthawk Custom takes a classic John Moses Browning design and upgrades it and enhances it for todays shooters.

The R20FFTM from Windham Weaponry is a top-quality .308 AR at a very reasonable price. Packing in Magpul gear, great performance and a surprisingly reasonable price point, this one is well worth a look if you want a “bigger brother” AR for your collection.

I wish we had all these new ideas that have become popular with new gun owners who buy stuff based on their Instagram. All those wasted years carrying a gun in a holster. I got done schooled bitches.

For any of you who have seen my years of Slidefire stock reviews, to me there is nothing cooler than a garden hose of brass coming out of the side of the gun. I’ve never even owned a Class 3 weapon. I just love slide stocks. But I have to say, I’ve had my challenges with getting magazines to run right that hold more than the standard 30 rounds. I’ve had real Beta C mags. I’ve had Korean Beta style mags. My one SureFire 60 rounder works great, but others of the breed have had some bad reviews out there. Enter the Armatac 150 round double drum mag. I’ve seen it around. It’s expensive. But supposedly it runs, with no graphite required. Hopefully we’ll see one in for a review soon.

For competition shooters and other people who are engaged in internet discussion boards, and even some of the news sites, the superiority of the Dillon progressive reloading systems as compared to everyone else is nothing new. And likewise, I’m sure a lot of them have heard of the GSI bullet feeder, because there is always that one guy who has everything and blabs about it all the time.

This year Geissele enters the single stage market with a single stage clean breaking light competition trigger. Towards the end of the video you’ll see how short the pull is, and how close a reset it has. It comes with two spring tensions, and there are a few trigger paddle options as well.

Primos’ new Gen 3 Trigger Sticks offer several improvements on the older generation, making an already excellent product even better.

CZ has come out this year with some new pistols. First and foremost of these is the P-10 C pistol, a polymer-framed, striker-fired handgun ready for duty or CCW use. Also new are the Shadow and the Shadow 2, which are sure to excite fans of the venerable CZ-75 line. The Shadow has been dominating the production class of USPSA for some time now. Also new are some exciting sporting shotguns.
