Stag Arms has been a leader in the AR side of the house, most notably the only major manufacturer to offer left-handed models. I don’t suffer from wronghandedness myself, but I appreciate a company stepping up the engineering to solve a problem.

Sabatti Target Rifles. Italians are used to making the best quality almost everything, so it is no surprise that their long range precision target rifles would be meticulous and inventive.
Uzkon Bullpup 12 Gauge Gas Shotgun Takes 1919 Mags – SHOT Show 2017
BY Paul Helinski Updated: February 4, 2017There have been rumblings about this gun for several months now, so it was nice to run across it at a small booth at SHOT. So far the gun has an importer, EAA, and the initial samples have been sent to ATF. That should be smooth sailing to get a gun in hand by later this year. At a pricepoint under $1,000, the gun should do very well in the US market, and we hope to see one soon.

New Kahr Arms Pistols from SHOT Show 2017
BY Clay Martin Updated: February 4, 2017Kahr Arms is best known for concealed carry pistols, and that is exactly what they brought to the party this year. The CM line of pistols has new colors, and some new upgrades. The color is Tungsten Grey, with gray most certainly being the favorite new color of the gun industry. The Kahr Arms Tungsten is a darker gray, with a matte finish. It makes for a beautiful gun, and I am starting to really dig this “guns don’t always have to be black” attitude.
