The new Slim Line handgun will feature an aluminum rather than a steel frame along with a thinner profile, which will reduce the weight from 22oz on their standard models to only 12oz on their new version.

Utah-based Culper Precision uses a unique method to replace 50 percent of a factory Glock 19 slide with carbon fiber, which reduces the overall weight of the firearm by about 30 percent. We caught up with the company’s founder and president, Brandon Scott, at SHOT Show 2020 to check out the Atomic 6 for ourselves.

These new XDm Elites are everything that they suggest in the name. I was able to get my hands on all four new additions in order to test them and develop an opinion on them that I can now share. Here’s your first look into the XDm Elites: The trigger is superb, they proved extremely reliable, the grip safety is redesigned and consequently more comfortable and reliably activated, and the magazine capacity is bigger than it has ever been, and so on.

When I have the opportunity to turn an antique firearm in my hands, one concept that jumps out at me harder and faster than others is firearm sighting systems and their development through the years.

Speaking in Turkey, Russian diplomat Andrei Karlov was shot on live television for all the world to see. The gun involved is little-known but powerful.

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!

The KelTec CP33 was one of the most hyped product of SHOT Show 2019 and I couldn’t help but fall into the excitement. However, I was a bit skeptical about its reliability with the radical quad stack magazine design. That said, I want to kill any doubts that you may have because I found this pistol to be extremely reliable, run any ammunition and it was easy to load. This gun quickly became a favorite of mine to bring to the range, take out varmint shooting and just carry around in the pickup for impromptu target practice.

In 1949, SIG made the P210, a fine gun for the Swiss army (the army called it the P49). It has been called the most accurate gun in the world, and one of the latest iterations, the P210 Target, is a good choice for target shooters. Now, they’ve released the P210 Standard, which pays homage back to the original model and is an updated version of the P210 Legend.

With a 6″ bull barrel and chambered in 10mm, it’s a reasonable choice for those who choose to hunt with a handgun. The long barrel maximizes bullet acceleration and its weight helps mitigate the effects of recoil. It’s a handsome firearm in two color configurations, two-tone black and bronze, or tritone black and bronze with a grey slide (pictured here). And yes, it’s only available in 10mm.
