New Kahr Arms CT Series Pistols
Kahr Arms was a fairly unknown company for its first few years, but quickly moved from the fringe to a major competitor in the CCW and mid-range priced pistol market. Though there have been many detractors, Kahr Arms has survived the naysayers with their (7) firearms patents and the production of several quality handguns. At SHOT Show this […]

...Street Force Rapid Deployment Duty Gear
Perhaps the most innovative new patrol equipment advertised during SHOT Show this year was the Duty Smith, Street Force Rapid Deployment Gear. The Street Force gear covers just about everything an officer needs on their duty belt, except for their holster. The innovative design of the Street Force Gear is how the gear pouches open […]
Galco’s New Holsters
GalcoGun Leather has been making very popular holsters since 1969, and has announced several new additions at SHOT Show 2015. Originally named “The Famous Jackass Leather Company”, it was no joke when the Jackass shoulder holster system gained worldwide fame as a common selection for detectives on the 1980’s hit T.V. series, Miami Vice. That model defined the “Miami Classic” style of shoulder holster. After moving to Phoenix, Arizona in 1980, the company name changed to Galco Gun Leather, but the quality of holsters only continues to improve.
...Walther CCP Compact 9mm
Walther released their CCP compact 9mm pistol at SHOT Show this year. Richard and I were able to put our hands on one at the Industry Day at the Range. Unfortunately, they were only allowing reporters to fire one 8-round magazine each, so our personal experiences were limited. However, we were able to make some […]

Walther released their CCP compact 9mm pistol at SHOT Show this year. Richard and I were able to put our hands on one at the Industry Day at the Range. Unfortunately, they were only allowing reporters to fire one 8-round magazine each, so our personal experiences were limited. However, we were able to make some interesting observations about this new compact pistol.
...The “American Sniper’s” Rifle
I’m always glad to take time to visit the precision rifle geniuses at GA Precision while touring the massive SHOT Show floor and conference rooms. Founded by George Gardner in 1999, GA Precision of North Kansas City, Missouri, has become world-renowned for producing extremely accurate long-range rifles. This year they had a very special rifle decked […]

...Coonan 1911 in .357 Magnum
Coonan may not be as familiar in the 1911 world as Colt, Remington, Kimber, Springfield, or Rock Island Armory, but that hasn’t stopped them from thinking outside of the box. This year at SHOT Show Coonan introduced their Model 1911 .357 Magnum Automatic, in both Classic and Compact configurations. Dan Coonan is not new to […]

...Universal Training Munitions (UTM)
UTM RBT training kit. The officer uses his personalized rifle, with UTM bolt carrier and magazines. A few years ago, we were invited to attend a special showing of the Universal Training Munitions (UTM) while we were at SHOT Show. I’m really glad that we attended. During that UTM showing, Richard and I were able […]

...Glock Modular Optic System (MOS)
Though so many Glock fans were looking for the announcement of the Glock single-stack compact 9mm pistol, Glock did not feed that hunger at SHOT Show this year. I’m beginning to think that Glock won’t produce what the market demands, simply so they can maintain some kind of twisted belief that they are in charge of the market. Instead […]

...Motivational Police Videos
Usually we don’t focus our posts on videos, and instead add videos to support our instructional narrative. However, recently there have been a few videos posted to YouTube that are so moving and inspirational that they need to be seen by a wide audience of law enforcement officers and their families. Your job is […]

...Mission First Tactical AR-Magazines
Mission First Tactical has made their name famous for developing several innovative firearm products, and one tongue-in-cheek trademark question, “Are you a M’Fer?” This year at SHOT Show Mission First Tactical announced they are now offering their very own AR-15 magazines. The first offerings will be their Standard Capacity Polymer Magazine (SCPM556) with a 30-round capacity, […]
