CZ is closing the book on three longtime members of its iconic CZ 75 family.

Springfield Armory just added its smallest model yet to the double-stack Prodigy family.

The Springfield Prodigy 3.5 AOS packs 18 rounds into a compact double-stack 1911 built for concealed carry, then backs it up with approximately 500 rounds of malfunction-free testing and a best 15-yard group of just 0.61 inches.

Everyone has that one gun with absolutely zero practical purpose. This working A280-CFE Blaster in 22LR turns an AR-15-based build into a Cassian Andor-inspired space gun that keeps finding its way back into the range bag.

The company has officially introduced the GX4 Carry chambered in .380 Auto, giving concealed carriers another option in its popular GX4 lineup.

After more than 250 rounds, the optics-ready Walther WMP proved accurate, comfortable, and ridiculously fun. Its 15+1 capacity, .40-inch best group, and surprising .22 WMR energy make this full-sized rimfire far more than a casual plinker.

The CANiK PRIME RADIAN packs Radian’s RAMJET and AFTERBURNER recoil-control package into a 17+1 micro-compact 9mm that shoots flatter than its size suggests. It is not cheap, and the trigger on this sample did not quite hit classic CANiK greatness, but the range performance makes a strong case for this carry-ready package.

Striker-fired pistols dominate today’s handgun market, but that does not automatically make them the best choice for every shooter. We put revolvers, single action, DA/SA, DAO, and striker-fired handgun actions under the microscope and on the range to see where each one shines.

KelTec completely reworked its original P50 concept with a drop-free 50-round magazine, machined receiver and smarter controls. We ran the KP50 hard, suppressed and unsuppressed, to see whether this 5.7x28mm oddball is genius or gimmick.
