2014 guns reveals....

[snorko]

S&W will introduce a version of the Bodyguard .380 without the built-in laser.

IIRC they did a run for the LAPD without the laser and without the manual safety. I would buy that.

I was just on Springfield armory internets. Looks like they have a 1911 Range officer offering in 9mm now.

 

[BehindBlueI's]

As far as I'm concerned, their new listing had better sell in a price range with Ruger and Smith Wesson or I'm not interested.

They weren't comparably priced with the Rugers and S&Ws of their day when they quit making them, so I doubt they'll be price competitive now even if it comes to fruition. The Colts required more man hours to assemble, and of course the dancing pony emblem and name add to the price. Sort of like a $6 leather wallet becomes a $35 leather wallet if it says "Harley" on it somewhere.

I like Colt, but their cylinder release has to be the slowest and least intuitive design, other than Dan Wesson, on the market. They've got some sweet triggers, though.

Just got the announcement today, Ruger will be manufacturing a standard-hammer version of the LCR .38 revolver, called the LCRx.

I hope your upper teeth were properly protruding over your bottom lip when you typed this.



Pffft, says the man that does not know The Ultimate when he sees it. Your opinion would change if you would dress in sepia colours and grow some facial hair instead of being clean-shaven and wearing that purple Zoot-suit that you wear to the range.

i dont know, i got to shoot a scar 17 it was a nice gun but, i think a fal or hk93 could do the same thing. me i would like to see a savage 20 gauge, 22lr combo rifle myself.

Savage will have a new semi-auto shotgun in 12ga. Sporting type first, tactical version to follow.

More Spoiler Alert Stuff for 2014: New Gun Rumors - What Will We See at the SHOT Show?

New from Henry Arms (Wisconsin facility) in 2014: New Henry Rifles for 2014 - The Firearm Blog

I visited a casting supplier in Ohio this fall that is making the brass receiver blanks for the Henry limited edition. That's some over-the-top pricing for my budget, but it is beautiful and was really cool to see part of it being made.

I was just on Springfield armory internets. Looks like they have a 1911 Range officer offering in 9mm now.

Bradis had one or so on one of their "New Arrival" messages and it seemed reasonable in price, compared to Colt (1K plus) or RIA (prepare to replace LOTS o parts to make a "solid" gun for very high round count). With the increase in interest in 9mm 1911s (pistol-training.com really ramped up people's interest in them), it would be foolish for companies to miss this increasingly less-niche pistol. Low recoil, good power for defense, excellent ergonomics, reliable design if built right, great accuracy and inexpensive shooting, manufacturers take note!

New backstrap/MSH grip treatment from Ed Brown. Chainlink III

Featuring our new for 2014 Chainlink III grip treatment, which takes the Chainlink II (golf ball style treatment) introduced in 2013 to a new level of enhancement. The smaller golf ball pattern and high tech machining of Chainlink III improves cosmetic appearance, and maintains a secure grip without being too aggressive. Also included as standard equipment is our new forged slide stop with a serrated lever for positive engagement. The G10 grips are now standard and look fantastic. We think you'll agree that our new improved Special Forces series are the ultimate 1911 handguns for serious use!

Yeah it is!

I'd be happy if Sig could get the MPX they announce last year out the damn door already. They sold me on the funky muzzle-brake/integral suppressor... and then failed to actually get them on the shelves.

This is becoming about as pointless as an industry auto show where the major manufacturers roll out cool concept cars they have no intention to build and then actually give you yet another bland 4 door sedan that's the same as all the other ones.

I was just thinking about that thing yesterday. Its a fantastic concept, just wish it would be implemented already!

i will have to look out for that. cant wait to see it. i hope they make it and its not a re branded Turkish gun(not necessarily a bad thing).

Yeah, those are my thoughts as well. After reading a lot on the MPX I was willing to give it a try. Yet, here we still are anxiously awaiting this new concept. I would buy one, and SBR the s-o-b.

A friend (and fellow INGOer) works for Savage and is on the design team. He hasn't told me if it's going to be built in-house or farmed out, but at least it will have been designed in the USA...
