Magnum Research is well known for its big and powerful Desert Eagle pistols, but it has been taking a slightly different tack with new variants they were showing at SHOT Show 2017. While they are still big and powerful, Magnum Research has worked to make them lighter and more portable. Take a look at some of the interesting new offerings on show at SHOT Show 2017.

Today’s instruction is what I found is needed between 20,000 and 30,000 rounds. The awesome part of this rebuild is that it’ll only cost you 35 bucks!

While it was once possible to get into a solid American-made 1911 for around $500.00 all day long, that number has almost doubled in many cases. If you are looking for some of the most popular features you may get closer to twice even that. Move up to semi-customs and full customs and the price can reach the stratosphere. For all but a few it’s just too much, prompting a return to basics, and more than a few companies are starting to do just that, including Doublestar.

Two weeks ago, GunsAmerica got the invite to attend the Beretta Tactical Summit hosted at The O’Gara Group training facility in Virginia. The choice of venue was a deliberate step by Beretta as they aggressively step back into the tactical market, and featured toys from across the Beretta line. It was a really nice change from usual product releases, and the facility offered a chance to really wring out the new APX 9mm striker-fired pistol. We had to hold off publishing due to an embargo on info on the pistol, but finally, its day has come.

Many people simply are unwilling or unable to carry a full-size gun on a daily basis. In fact many people want the smallest frame gun they can get. With that information, we are able to narrow our search. In fact, once we narrow it down that far, there is one gun that seems to fit the bill quite well; the Kimber Micro CDP chambered in .380.

This week we are reviewing the Baby Desert Eagle III in .45 ACP, a perfect blend of Israeli military design with a good old American man killer in the magazine. The Baby Eagle III is a double action/single action (DA/SA) pistol in .45 ACP (or 9mm) with combat experience in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), and a lineage traceable through Israel and directly back to the renowned CZ-75 pistol. But let’s get to the real question. Is this gun that is made and Israel and imported by Magnum Research a cool gun? Why, yes. Yes, it is.

Cabot Guns is transforming the science of manufacturing into a form of art with their newest 1911 pistol, the Dragon’s Claw.

I got the chance to spend some time with Mark Serbu during the 2017 SHOT Show. He had lots of cool guns on his table but I could not help myself, I just wanted to talk about the GB-22 pistol.

Tactical Solutions has long been known for making top notch rimfire components, so this year they took the next logical step. Coming soon, a fully built Tactical Solutions Pistol, the TLP-22.
