Handguns

The 45th Anniversary CZ 75 B will feature a bright, high-polish blued finish, scrollwork on the frame and slide along the muzzle and engraved blonde wood grips to match the scrolling.

At-home gunsmithing firm 80 Percent Arms just announced a newly designed Glock-pattern 80 percent pistol system with a modular frame.

I had the chance to do some testing recently with two new self-defense rounds made by Federal Premium Ammunition: Syntech Defense in 9mm and .45 Auto; and, Train + Protect, also in 9MM and .45 Auto.

The Altor Corp. is showing off an extremely simple single-shot pistol for self-defense at this year’s NASGW trade show.

The wait is now over. The Israeli Weapon Industries Masada has shipped and is now available in stores and online, with one lucky person getting one free.

After a long, and for some absolutely excruciatingly painful wait, Colt is now offering a full-size King Cobra revolver chambered for .357 Magnum.

Smith & Wesson is reintroducing the Model 648 double-action revolver. Chambered for .22 WMR the full-size gun has a stainless finish and a 6-inch barrel.

I had handled Canik pistols a couple of years ago at the SHOT show and have a couple of friends that shoot them but was a bit skeptical of how the Century Arms imports were going to perform; after all, they have an MSRP below $325, how good of a gun should you expect at that price point?

There are a lot of handguns that can be called “iconic”, but that word seldom applies more accurately than when used to refer to the Desert Eagle by Magnum Research.
