Change is both constant and inevitable. Sometimes change comes slowly, while at other times, it can come crashing down like a wave.
Recently, the firearms and associated industries have seen a wave of changes from Colt to SureFire. While some of these may be necessary and have long term benefits, in the short term, there is likely to be some pain. Here’s a taste of what’s going on in the industry.
In current gun news…
IWI US is now selling a state compliant version of the TAVOR in Massachusetts, Maryland and New Jersey. Â The new guns have an 18″ barrel, permanent 2″ muzzle break, an OAL of 30″ and a 10-round magazine. Â It has a full length Picatinny rail for adding optics and spring-loaded back up sights. Â The front sight has a tritium insert for low light use.
The TAVOR SAR RS (model # TSB18RS) is chambered in 5.56 NATO and carries an MSRP of $2,049.
Here is some of today’s gun news…
Davidson’s announced they are now shipping an exclusive purple and black Beretta U22 Neos pistol. Â The new guns use purple inserts in the grip and an anodized purple finish on the gun’s top rail.
I understand that purple is not for everyone, but expanding the firearms color palette is a great way to give people a more personalized choice in arms. Â Sure, Henry Ford sold a lot of black Model T cars, but today you can get a Mustang in eight colors other than black from the factory. Â Consumers like options, and not every gun owner wants black and/or stainless.
