SHOT Show – Standard Manufacturing

Sunday, January 25th, 2015

Following in the footsteps of Kel-Tec and UTAS, Standard Manufacturing has developed their own bullpup pump action shotgun with dual magazine tubes, however unlike the former two shotguns which feature a single barrel that feeds from two tubes, the DP-12 features double barrels. Two shells are chambered with each pump, and the trigger must be pulled twice to fire both barrels. Each tube is capable of holding 7 2 3/4″ shells, for a total capacity of 14+2. The DP-12 is machined from a solid billet of aircraft grade 7075 aluminum, and it features a spring loaded recoil pad.

SHOT Show – Maglula

Sunday, January 25th, 2015

Maglula’s Range Benchloader is a heavy-duty industrial 30-round loader for most standard .223/5.56 magazines, including aluminum, polymer, and steel magazines. The Benchloader’s design allows users to quickly load up to 30-rounds through its single stroke loading action. Its open design allows for examination of rounds prior to loading, and the design reduces wear on feed lips, prolonging magazine life.

SHOT Show – GLOCK

Friday, January 23rd, 2015

Perhaps generating the biggest buzz at the Glock booth was the new MOS or Modular Optic System pistols. The fairly recent trend of mounting miniature reflex optics to pistols has prompted Glock to offer their own optic-ready slides for various Glock pistol models.

Seen above is the Glock 34 MOS. The 34 is a long slide 9x19mm Glock, which has seen use in many competitive shooting events, making it a perfect fit for the new MOS line. The slides come standard with a removable cover plate, for use without an optic, as well as the necessary Torx wrench and screws. The MOS also comes with four adapter plates to accommodate most popular optic models.

Currently, the G34 Gen4, G35 Gen4, G41 Gen4, and G40 Gen4 are the four models slated to come out in the MOS configuration, although if the MOS line turns out to be popular enough it’s likely Glock would expand the MOS slides to other models. We were also told that currently the MOS has to be purchased as a complete pistol and the slides will not be sold separately. They are set to ship shortly after the completion of SHOT Show.

Wilson Combat/Bravo Company BCMGUNFIGHTER 1911

Thursday, January 22nd, 2015

The enhanced grip pattern of Wilson Combat’s X-TAC 1911 has become the standard with hard users who run the 1911 platform in extreme service environments. You can now get this unmatched grip security and styling in a special X-TAC model exclusive to Bravo Company MFG-The BCMGUNFIGHTER 1911.

This outstanding tactical package retains the core features of the X-TAC and adds a tactical light rail and other select performance options that BCM’s experts demanded like the Bullet Proof One Piece Magwell, solid medium trigger and tritium front sight. Wilson’s renowned Armor-Tuff finish was chosen to offer a non-reflective and corrosion resistant finish that can stand up to the most severe global environments. In tandem with the BCMGUNFIGHTER/VZ G-10 grips, the frame’s X-tread pattern locks securely into the firing hand and reduces muzzle flip without snagging on clothes or cover garments.

“Wilson Combat has a legendary history in manufacturing fighting 1911s, and serious hard-use guns are what BCM is all about. We are very excited to collaborate with Wilson on a special gun, built to our specifications with carefully chosen and battle ready options. BCM builds weapon systems that are manufactured to meet the unforgiving needs of law enforcement, military, security and peace keeping professionals in some of the most high stress environments and situations in the world. Forged from a gunfighter’s no-nonsense mindset, we believe the BCMGUNFIGHTER 1911 carries on this tradition in a fighting handgun.”
– Paul Buffoni, President, Bravo Company MFG

The newly announced Wilson Combat/Bravo Company BCMGUNFIGHTER 1911 is available exclusively through Bravo Company.
