Pistol

If Congress does nothing else this year (which is possible), at least they’ll have helped thousands of government-issued M1911s find good homes.

Earlier this week, I got one of the new SIG LIMA320 frame modules in. And it is everything I thought it would be.

The XD-E is a polymer-framed, hammer-fired single-stack .45 for everyday carry. It’s slim and light and affordably priced, too.

Always bring enough gun. That line writes well. It also embodies a great deal of well-reasoned tactical gravitas. If ever you should find yourself in the midst of a Real World balls-to-the-wall gunfight you don’t want to be the guy suffering a terminal case of pistol envy. However, I always thought that whoever first penned that idiom likely didn’t live in the American Deep South.

Zenith, the emerging face of roller-delayed blowback firearms, is releasing a premium pistol build all-premium features built in.

The Masada is polymer-framed and striker-fired with fully-ambidextrous controls and three interchangeable backstraps, shipping in Q1 of 2018.

The new fully-featured Saint pistols feature a custom free-floating rail, updated pistol brace and blast mitigation device.

There’s nothing like a new Glock, right out of the factory box: reliable, accurate, awesome. In fact, the only thing better — in certain circumstances — is an old Glock with key enhancements.

Like you always do, you’ve done your “homework” and researched the crap out of your next purchase: be it a Smart TV, a camera, handgun or tires for your truck. And as a result of your data collection efforts, you eventually decide on an item knowing that it has “almost” all the features and qualities you had on your wish list.  It is a pretty good bet that the guys who engineered the new SAR 9 from SAR USA have felt the same way.
