In this morning’s Daily Mail is an article on the new equipment being deployed by the London Metro Police’s Counterterrorist Specialist Firearms Officers. The photos are great and show the unit’s new Arc’teryx LEAF Enhanced Combat Uniforms in Wolf Grey.
Unfortunately, the Daily Mail got the rifle wrong again. Last time they identified the gun as an H&K. This time, they got the make right but the model wrong. Rather than identifying it as an MCX like the one we showed you during DSEI, a London Police source claims it is a 516.
NEWINGTON, N.H. (November 16, 2015) — SIG SAUER, Inc., changed the way the world looked at handguns with the introduction of the modular P250 series. Now, with the introduction of the P250-22, that same versatility is available in a rimfire option.
Built on the same platform as the centerfire P250 variants, the P250-22 offers an affordable option for plinkers, instructors, and newer shooters. Chambered in the venerable .22LR cartridge, the P250-22 is a reliable, fun-to-shoot handgun for all levels of shooter.
“The real benefit to the P250-22 lies in its ability to be converted to fire centerfire rounds, such as 9mm, .40 or .357SIG,” said John Brasseur, Director of Product Development for SIG SAUER, Inc. “This allows newer shooters to work up to the more powerful cartridges, and is a great tool for introducing youth to the shooting sports.”
The P250-22 features the same serialized fire control group as on centerfire models. This unit is the actual “firearm” and can be installed in a variety of grip modules. This versatility allows the P250-22 to be fit to any hand, and with the addition of an X-Change kit, can be converted to centerfire.
Full-size, compact, and subcompact X-Change kits mean the P250-22 can be set up as a centerfire duty pistol, concealed carry gun or backup piece in seconds. The smooth double-action only trigger offers a consistent, clean trigger press, which stays the same regardless of the caliber or configuration.
“The P250-22 is truly a ‘one-gun’ solution,” Brasseur said. “Thanks to the wide variety of caliber and grip module options, the P250-22 can meet any need and fit any hand.”
Offered in the Compact configuration, the P250-22 is now shipping to SIG SAUER dealers across the nation. For more information, please visit us at www.sigsauer.com.
Bravo Company Manufacturing is now offering a line of 300 Blackout upper carbines and upper receiver groups in Recce 16″, 12.5″ CQB, and 10″ pistol configurations and lengths. One of the greatest benefits of 300 Blackout ARs is that they utilize virtually all of the same parts and components as an equivalent 5.56 AR, allowing shooters to use the same magazines and accessories between rifles chambered for either caliber. This modularity extends towards BCM’s 300 Blackout uppers, which come standard with the KMR-Alpha forend.
BCM’s 300 Blackout line is built on their 1:7 twist 11595E Certified Steel Barrels. Both the bore and chamber are chrome-lined, and each barrel features a continuous taper profile “designed to optimize balance, performance and weight”. Additionally, BCM barrels lack the sharp handguard cap shoulder common on AR-platform barrels, the removal of which is designed to improve barrel harmonics and accuracy. The 300 Blackout line also includes the BCM Comp Mod 1 – 762/300 BLK.
BCM Gunfighters Travis Haley and Tom Spooner has this to say about 300 Blackout:
My main requirements in a combat round are versatility and recoil control. In testing 300 Blackout over the years, I have found it performs from CQB range out to, and exceeding, 500 meters. Despite having a slightly more potent impulse, the recoil is still manageable, which means a shooter can engage threats quickly and, given the increased mass, more efficiently.

The ability to have the power of a .30 caliber round, with minimally increased recoil over a 5.56×45 round in a sub 10 inch platform is ideal for most soldiers in Direct Action units. As fielded, in an AR pattern carbine, the operator is already familiar with the operating system and ergonomics of the weapon.

“My journey with the Government Model 1911 pistol started in 1983 when I attended SOT (Special Operations Training) at Mott Lake on Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. Since then I have served an entire career in Special Operations, with 15 years of it in Delta Force. I’ve carried the 1911 in combat, used it in IPSC and IDPA competitions, built custom versions for members of Delta, friends and others in the industry, and used it as the tool it was designed to be in my various handgun related classes. My experience with it has shaped my life in every way imaginable. *Vickers Guide* is a visual guide of the people and pistols that have shaped my life and my relationship with America’s favorite handgun. The one and only 1911. Enjoy.”

NEWINGTON, N.H. (November 12, 2015) — SIG SAUER, Inc., is now offering the P229 Carry chambered in .40 and .357SIG. These reduced-length pistols maintain the standard grip length and magazine capacity as the standard P229, but with a shortened slide and barrel length.
Available in Nitron and SAS models, the P229 Carry features a non-railed alloy frame and durable Nitron finished slide. SIGLITE Night Sights come standard. Black G-10 grips offer a stout grip, even when wet.
The 3.5″ barrel makes the P229 Carry easy to draw from concealment or a duty rig. Ideal for inside the waistband (IWB) carry, the P229 Carry uses standard length, full capacity P229 magazines, making it a great back-up choice.
“As we’ve worked with armed professionals over the years, we kept hearing comments about shorter slides and barrels, but with full-size magazines and grips,” said John Brasseur, Director of Product Management for SIG SAUER, Inc. “This combination offers advantages in certain low visibility applications. One benefit of our New Hampshire-based facility is that we can adapt new designs very efficiently to meet the needs of our users in the field.”
The Nitron model features a DA/SA trigger and the full set of internal safeties found in all Classic SIG SAUER pistols. The SAS model features the Short Reset Trigger system (SRT) and has had the SIG Anti-Snag treatment applied, where all sharp corners and hard edges have been rounded, making for a more comfortable gun to conceal.
Both the Nitron and SAS P229 Carry models are shipping now in .40 and .357SIG. A caliber X-Change kit will also be available to convert .40 and .357SIG variants to 9mm.
