Another new gun shown at the 2013 SHOT Show is the Kahr CM45 (Model #4543). The CM series of handguns is the economy version of the PM series that Kahr produces. Adding the venerable .45 ACP caliber to the CM series of handguns should bode well for Kahr, as the CM series has been a…
The MultiCam Rally Fighter is but one of the cool vehicles frequently seen at the SHOT Show. This purpose-built machine was prominently displayed on the ground floor of the convention center, and drew quite a bit of interest from people wandering by.
Kahr announced the new CW380 at the SHOT Show. The new pistol is chamered in .380 ACP and continues the budget line of pistols the company has been putting out for several years. Other calibers in this line include the CW9 and CW40 in 9mm and .40 S&W respectively. The CW380 has a 2.58″ barrel…
Rock Island Armory is introducing two new 10mm pistols at the SHOT Show. Both are 1911-type platforms. Here are the specs on these guns:
It looks like Glock’s big announcement at the SHOT Show (other than “Hey, we have a social network site!”) is the 30S pistol. I mentioned the rumors of this gun a few days ago, but I have now seen one. Essentially, the Glock 30S is a model 30SF frame with a model 36 slide attached to…

HK announced the introduction of the HK45 Tactical to the civilian market. It looks like you will be able to get them in all sorts of tactical colors and with a threaded barrel. Probably the oddest thing about this product announcement is that the HK45 Tactical is shown in a photograph with a “dummy” sound…
As mentioned in a previous report of SHOT Show rumors, Winchester Repeating Arms is re-introducing the classic Model 1873 short rifle in 2013. Considered by some as “the gun that won the west,” the new version of the classic lever action rifle will be chambered for the .357 Magnum and will also short the mild…
The much rumored Ruger SR1911 commander is now a reality after the company announced its introduction on its website. Ever since the introduction of the original SR1911, Ruger and 1911 fans have been asking for a commander-sized gun. The new SR1911 commander is a traditional 1911-style pistol that is slightly shortened in general parameters of…
The Ruger SR45 is now a reality. Just days ahead of the 2013 SHOT Show, Sturm, Ruger & Co announced the big bore addition to the company’s popular “SR” series of handguns. Chambered in .45 ACP, the new SR45 comes standard with 10-round magazines, giving the shooter a lot of firepower. Yet, Ruger claims the…
Weatherby announced they will be producing the new Vanguard 2 Back Country rifles in 2013.

First of all, the rifles are lightweight, coming in at just 6.75…
The new Walther PPX was on display at the NASGW Expo, and regular readers of this site have probably already seen some of the photos of the pistol. Here are some more details on the gun and some of my observations. The new PPX will be available in 9mm and .40 S&W. The 9mm version will…
