Month: March 2023

Beretta has been making the Bobcat (Model 21) pistol for the past 40 years and only recently started making them in colors other than black or Inox (aluminum) and in what they call a Covert model that comes with a factory-threaded barrel, the latter something that many Bobcat owners often pay $125-$200 to have done… Continue reading Beretta Releases Three New Bobcats

Making sure they have all the niches covered, SIG this month has already announced at least four new 9mm handguns, including three P320 variants. The new P320s on the menu include Navy SEAL Foundation and Marine Raider Foundation commemoratives– a portion of the proceeds from the sale of these models earmarked to support those not-for-profits.… Continue reading SIG Announces Four New 9mm Pistols

Savage announced their straight-pull bolt action Impulse series guns a couple of years back and they have, thus far, proved popular enough for the company to introduce additional models.

While the Army’s rifle is chambered… Continue reading Sig Sauer Debuts Civilian Variant of New Army Rifle

North Carolina’s Cosaint Arms has been cranking out double stack 2011 style pistols for a minute and their new model, dubbed the CP series, uses a “uniquely designed” ported slide, and barrel that sort of resembles the integrated comps seen on the Sig Sauer P365 XMacro Comp and P320 AXG Comp. The CP series includes… Continue reading Cosaint Arms New 2011 CP Series

Smith & Wesson is continuing to claw at the air with new products for 2023 by producing a 9mm pistol caliber carbine. As sort of a no-brainer, it is based on their M&P9 pistol but with a longer 16-inch barrel. Of interest, the carbine, dubbed the FPC, has a left-folding barrel assembly that roughly drops… Continue reading S&W Introduces Folding 9mm Carbine, the FPC
