The Arex Rex Zero 1S<\/a> pistol is a breath of fresh air for me. And at odds with the polymer trends so prevalent today, it\u2019s made with a full-metal frame. The pistol, imported by Fime Group<\/a>, looks SIG-inspired in design and configuration\u00a0and has a blocky industrial look like a modern city in a Soviet satellite country before glasnost<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Arex pistol is definitely handsome and eye-catching. Can you spot the 1911-inspired feature?<\/p><\/div>\n

Not long after firing the Arex Rex Zero 1S I realized there was something unique and pleasing about this pistol. Now that I have spent quality time with the Rex\u2014literally months\u2014this seemingly traditional double-action\/single-action (DA\/SA) full-size pistol is a well-thought-out design. I have had less than zero failures with the pistol. It hits where I aim it and it is offered at a price that makes the frugal Yankee in me grin.<\/p>\n

But, one of the key features of the design may come as a surprise to those who may just write this off as a SIG clone. As I am sure you know, the classic series of SIG pistols feature no manual safety and have a non-ambidextrous decocking lever. The intent of the design is for you to carry it with the hammer down, and shoot a long, heavy, double-action trigger pull for the first shot like a DA revolver. All subsequent shots are single-action with the slide cocking the hammer. When you are done firing, decock the pistol and reholster it.<\/p>\n
