Springfield Armory Introduces Ronin 1911 Pistol in 10mm

From Springfield Armory

Springfield Armory® is proud to introduce the Ronin™ 1911 in 10mm, a powerful and reliable pistol built for a lifetime of service at an MSRP of just $849.

The Ronin 1911 provides shooters with a pistol that combines classic styling with modern features, the result of thoroughly modern precision manufacturing mixed with a traditional approach to quality and performance.

If you’re looking for the company quality in a rifle, take a look at its new 2020.

Configured as a full-size 5″ gun, the 8+1 Ronin in 10mm features a forged steel slide and frame as well as a hammer-forged barrel for unparalleled durability and strength — ideal for a pistol harnessing the impressive power of the ever-popular 10mm cartridge.

The 10mm Ronin sports a beautiful two-tone finish, with a stainless steel forged frame and a forged slide of carbon steel. The slide features a beautiful hot salt bluing treatment that not only brings out the luster of the steel, but also hearkens back to the earliest days of the classic 1911. The flats of both the slide and frame are thoroughly polished, with an attractive matte finish applied to the rest of the pistol.

Despite the remarkably affordable $849 MSRP of the pistol, all Ronins feature upgrades and enhancements well beyond what you would normally see at this price point. Everything you would want on a modern 1911 is present on the Ronin 1911. The pistol features forward slide serrations, a beavertail grip safety with “memory bump” for solid engagement, a fiber optic front/tactical rack white dot rear sight system and an extended safety lever.

Rounding out the package of the Ronin is a pair of Crossed Cannon™ premium laminate wood grips, a stainless steel checkered flat mainspring housing, Springfield Armory 2nd Generation Speed Trigger and a basepad-equipped magazine.


“The Ronin series of pistols — offered in 9mm and .45 ACP, and now 10mm — have proven to be extremely popular with 1911 enthusiasts due to their impressive quality, forged strength and durability, and exceptional features,” explains Steve Kramer, Vice President of Marketing for Springfield Armory. “With the addition of the 10mm chambering, the Ronin family now has even more to offer.”

With this new addition to the Ronin line, 1911 fans have a powerful and capable 10mm pistol that combines classic styling, forged strength for a lifetime of service, and cutting-edge performance.

Hogue Beavertail HandALL Grip Sleeves for the Springfield Armory Hellcat

From Hogue

Continuing the expansion of Hogue’s HandALL® grip sleeve line, models are now available for the Springeld Armory® Hellcat™. Numerous customer requests quickly gained the interest of Hogue engineers since the Hellcat’s initial release. Hogue answered with an all new Beavertail™ grip sleeve guaranteed to enhance the shooting experience of this compact, everyday carry pistol.

The advantages of Hogue’s Beavertail grip sleeves on polymer pistols are evident upon installation. Perceived recoil is signi?cantly reduced by Hogue’s renowned ultra-soft rubber. The beavertail feature provides added protection for the purlicue of the hand, while the ?nger grooves allow consistent grasp and secure hold. It has become common for shooters to resort to custom stippling to upgrade the factory texture of polymer pistols; however, this practice ultimately compromises the original condition of the ?rearm’s frame. To avoid this irreversible trade-off, Hogue has perfected their Beavertail grip sleeve design to ensure a long-lasting, yet non-permanent alternative that will greatly enhance the shooter’s grip experience. Hogue HandALL Beavertail grip sleeves come in a variety of colors and retail at an affordable $12.95.

Here’s a look at the Hellcat in FDE.

Hogue Grip sleeves are manufactured in their family-owned and operated facilities under direct supervision of the Hogue family. Hogue Inc. supports local dealers and encourages customers to purchase Hogue products locally. For more information, please call Hogue Inc. directly at 1-800-438-4747 or visit www.hogueinc.com.

Rival Arms Chassis System for Remington 700

From Rival Arms

Recognized for premium aftermarket handgun and rifle components, Rival Arms® expands its offering of drop-in chassis systems with the new R-700 Precision Chassis for Remington® 700 rifles.

The R-700 chassis is designed to accept the Remington 700 short-action barreled action. The chassis is CNC-machined from aluminum billet and available in three finishes: Type III hardcoat anodize matte black (Item RA90RM01A), KG GunKote™ FDE (RM90RM01B), and KG GunKote Satin Gray (RA90RM01C).

Like the R-22 chassis developed for the Ruger® 10/22 barreled action (released by Rival Arms earlier this year), the R-700 is designed to accept AR-15 grips and buffer tube style buttstocks. This includes the Rival Arms ST-3X Precision Stock or any AR-15 stock that uses a 1-3/16″ 16 MILSPEC buffer tube. This versatility allows builders to add any buttstock that suites their needs, while also accommodating most A2 pattern pistol grips.

Precision inletting means the R-700 is a drop-in fit for factory Remington 700 short-action barreled actions and aftermarket precision actions. The forend/barrel channel delivers barrel free-float with all factory barrel contours and barrels up to one inch in diameter. Fourteen machined M-LOK slots allow builders to install a broad range of readily available accessory mounts to adapt the chassis to any mission. The chassis also comes tapped with a sling swivel stud and is ergonomically designed with a scalloped forend for a positive grip when shooting without a rest.

MSRP for the new Rival Arms R-700 chassis is $381.99. The chassis is currently available on rival-arms.com and starting to ship to dealers and distributors nationwide.

Meprolight’s Advanced MEPRO MOR PRO

From Meprolight

Born out of necessity, red-dot optics revolutionized rifle aiming solutions for CQB—Close-Quarter Battle— engagements. From the beginning, Meprolight® was in the forefront of this category of optics. As a result of their required military service in the IDF, Meprolight’s engineers recognized first-hand the need for an advanced red-dot optic. Out of their experience, the MEPRO MOR family of advanced red-dot optics was designed. Whether you are LE, hunter or a defense-minded individual, The MEPRO MOR Pro warrants your consideration.

Meprolight’s engineers utilized the latest state-of-the-art technology to create a rugged multi-purpose reflex sight incorporating a red dot sight and lasers with multiple power sources that exceeded MIL-Standard requirements. The MEPRO MOR Pro is unique in that it is an all-in-one red dot reflex sight/ IR/Visible Laser in a single unit. Shooters can choose from one of the reticles – 2.2/4.3 MOA Bullseye, or 2.2/4.3 Dot.

The Mepro MOR Pro’s incorporated co-witness sighting system allows you to zero in only one of the systems—Reticle, Visible Laser or IR Laser—and the other systems automatically zero in at the same time. Should circumstances demand it, this feature allows you to zero your weapon the IR laser at night and you are good to go day, low-light or night time. Reticle intensity is adjustable to the shooter’s preference.

Recognizing that consistent power is vital to the operating system, The MEPRO MOR Pro has four independent power sources—Fiber Optic, Tritium and two independent, commonly available AA batteries—that back each other up in the unlikely event one system goes down. The AA batteries, operate as standalone sources and will power the system if one goes dead allowing you to stay in the action. The large crystal viewing window provides a crisp, clear and brilliant point of aim with both eyes open for increased situational awareness

The MEPRO MOR Pro has all the advantages:

  • Operates under all weather and temperature conditions.
  • Totally integrated day/night operation.
  • Passive self-illuminated system.
  • LED for extra bright modes
  • Laser Configuration: red or green and IR.
  • Special cable sensor diagnostics

The MEPRO MOR PRO is used by the IDF and other special forces units around the world to meet critical day, low-light and nighttime conditions. If you want to increase your CQB capabilities, check out the MEPRO MOR Pro.

Galco’s WheelGunner & Ironhide Belt Holsters

From Galco

Galco’s extremely versatile WheelGunner™ and Ironhide™ belt holsters offer ambidextrous design as well as quick on-off capability. Suitable for casual concealment and outdoor sportsman’s carry, they both carry a large handgun high and close to the body.

The WheelGunner secures a large revolver with a combination of hand molding and an adjustable hammer thong. Simply slip the hammer thong off and the gun is cleared for a fast, smooth draw.

I interviewed several custom holster experts, and you may be surprised at how affordable they are.

The Ironhide secures a semiautomatic pistol with a combination of hand molding and a reversible retention strap with a glove-friendly polymer tab. Release the strap and the pistol is cleared for a fast, smooth draw. The retention strap accommodates both hammer-down and cocked-and-locked carry on 1911-type pistols.

Both designs allow right or left hand carry by unsnapping the holster from the belt slide, moving the belt slide to the opposite side of the body, reversing the retention strap (on the Ironhide), and reattaching the holster. Leaving the belt slide attached to the belt, the holster body can also be quickly detached, should the carrier need to enter a “non-permissive environment” and temporarily store the holstered handgun.

Constructed of premium steerhide, both holsters fit belts up to 1 3/4”.

Don’t forget to take a look at the company’s Walkabout 2.0.

Savage Announces Backcountry Xtreme Series Rifles

From Savage

Savage Arms is pleased to announce the creation of a dynamic new series of performance-driven rifles designed for the most rugged and demanding hunts: The Backcountry Xtreme Series. These rifles are purpose-built and define the top tier of the 110 hunting line. Though each is unique, they all embody the most functional refinements Savage builds into its bolt action designs. These 110s can do it all.

“The Model 110 has been evolving for more than six decades,” said Jessica Treglia, Sr. Brand Manager at Savage Arms. “That’s longer than any other bolt-action rifle in production. The new Backcountry Xtreme Series is building on this legacy. These rifles mark the apex of the 110’s incredible journey. These rifles are more capable than any 110’s we’ve ever built. They feature protective finishes, innovative product features, and the best of our patented technologies. These rifles have premium features added and can do it all. The Backcountry Xtreme Series shows what it means to be Savage.”

The extras that define the Backcountry Xtreme Series are all built on the tested foundations that make the 110 so successful. AccuTrigger™ allows users to set pull weights as low as 1.5 pounds. AccuStock™ provides the receiver with the solid bedding needed for repeat accuracy, and AccuFit™ allows for a tailored fit—without the need of a gunsmith.

With the official designation of the Backcountry Xtreme Series, Savage is launching two new Model 110s:

The 110 Ultralite Camo:

Savage teamed up with PROOF Research® to craft a 110 that comes in under 6 pounds. The carbon fiber wrapped stainless steel barrel and melonite skeletonized receiver help minimize weight. This new Ultralite features a KUIU® Verde 2.0 camo for the ultimate concealment.

If you have a youth shooter on your upcoming holiday shopping list, take a look at the Savage Rascal Minimalist.

The 110 Timberline:

The 110 Timberline is built to maximize accuracy with a fluted barrel, overmold surfaces, target crown, and omni-port muzzlebrake. The Model 110 action is secured three-dimensionally along its entire length within the AccuStock internal chassis and AccuFit system lets hunters customize length-of-pull and comb height of the Realtree® Excape synthetic stock. The OD Green Cerakote® on the barrel, receiver and other critical parts protects against corrosion. It will be available in both left-handed and right-handed configurations.

The full line of Backcountry Xtreme rifles can be found here, and include these models:

110 Bear Hunter: A true heavy hitter designed for dependability.

110 Ridge Warrior: Take on targets one day, and trophies the next.

110 Timberline: Built to be concealed and to withstand the elements.

110 High Country: Maximize accuracy on long range shots.

The Weatherby Vanguard® series of bolt action rifles provides the confidence of a match quality, two-stage trigger that breaks crisp and clean plus guaranteed SUB-MOA accuracy out of the cold hammer forged barrel.

GoatGuns Rolls out M16A1 Today

One hundred and sixteen Vietnam vets received a 1/3-size, highly detailed replica of the M16A1—the gun used most widely during the war in Southeast Asia—complements of GoatGuns. Recipients were nominated on the company’s website and there was no charge for those who received the collectibles. In celebration of Veterans Day, the company made them available for purchase by the general public today.

This month I interviewed company owner Brad Lunt about the heavy metal replicas, with working charging handles, tiny inert cartridges, trigger capable of being pulled and removable handguard. GoatGuns has been in business for three years and is based in Utah.

GJS—Is there anything else like GoatGuns out there?

BL—There are miniature pin fire guns that shoot 2 mm objects.  These are much more costly ($200+ per unit) and regulated due to firing capabilities. There are also 1/8-scale model guns and keychains whereas ours are 1/3 scale; much higher quality. 

GJS—What sets you apart from the competitors?

BL—Our models are made from authentic die cast metal. The first reaction we get from most people that handle them is a surprise in the weight. They weigh 8 to 16 ounces per model. Our gun models are 1:3 scale (aside from the 1911 which is 1:2.5), which makes the size big enough to handle and play around with.  

GJS—The detail is incredible, how much research goes into making each one?

BL—Time from idea conception to working product is 12 to 18 months. Lots of work goes into mold creation, testing and refining. We are currently working on a M1 Garand which is proving to be very meticulous and hard! We are also testing loading a round in the chamber and then have it eject the dummy round (all GoatGun models have a closed barrel and are non-firing) 

GJS—Is the metal cast, 3D printed? How is it created?

BL—Die cast metal via dozens of molds. 

GJS—Coming up with patterns on anything is expensive, can you give me an idea how much it cost in time or labor to create each?

BL—Lots of labor. The patterns are done through a Hydrofilm process, which is handled one unit at a time. We have done Electroplating before (Red AK47 for any fans out there who have it “RedTeam”), but this didn’t prove to be a quality product for the long run as the Red dipped parts began flaking. 

GJS—Is the final product hand inspected?

BL—Yes, we have quality protocols in place and working to improve quality continually.  For any users that get a defective product or if a piece breaks, we replace the part free of cost no questions asked. 

GJS—Why are you doing the special promotion for Veteran’s Day?

BL—Although we don’t currently have Veteran Employees; as a company owner I have a deep love and respect for Veterans. I appreciate the Freedoms we have in America and it is a brand goal to continually support and give back to those in service and those who have already served our great country. 

The M16A1 was the predominant rifle used in the Military during the Vietnam war. We had a previous M16 model unit sold during 2019 but then stopped selling it to recreate it to be an exact version of the M16A1.  We are proud of the new model (it is 12.5” in length and a pretty hefty little sucker at 13 ounces). 

We sent out 116 units to nominated Vietnam Veterans for free on Oct. 15. The model itself will be available for public on Veterans Day, 11/11/20. 

GJS—Do you have any other charitable efforts throughout the year or organizations you support that I should mention?

BL—Me and my small staff here in Spanish Fork volunteered at the local food bank during summer months to help give back to the community. In times past we have given to Operation Gratitude and later this year we will make more contributions to other nonprofits. 

GJS—Is there anything else you’d like to add that I didn’t ask?

BL—It is our company goal to make the ‘Greatest of All Time’ Gun Models.  This will mean in long term, historical packs such as ‘Axis’ and ‘Allies’ along with modern day firearms.  We love to have a little fun in our marketing which has led to creators using our products achieving virality. Many posts with GoatGuns on TikTok recently have received 7+ Million views!  We love seeing how much fun users are having with them with their pets (see @tactipet on Instagram), their kids, action figures etc.  We are a new company but love the direction the company is headed to and people can expect to see bigger name brand gun companies getting their lineup ‘miniaturized’ by Sgt. Gunner.

More Deer Season XP® Copper Impact™ Offerings for Your 2020 Season

From Winchester

Deer Season XP® Copper Impact™ ammunition provides devastating terminal performance on deer with increased weight retention and deeper penetration, now available in even more popular calibers including 6.5 Creedmoor, 270 WSM, 300 WSM and shotgun sabot slugs.

Deer Season XP Copper Impact ammunition features an oversized hollow-point bullet that initiates rapid expansion on impact and is protected by a polymer tip in flight for an improved ballistic coefficient. The solid copper construction of the bullet offers improved weight retention over standard jacketed lead-core bullets, which lead to deeper penetration and more consistent pass-throughs.

“With Deer Season XP Copper Impact ammunition, Winchester continues its long-standing tradition of creating innovative ammunition that meets the needs of hunters and shooters,” said Matt Campbell, vice president of marketing and sales for Winchester Ammunition. 

The new loads are now available at a retailer or dealer near you. Make sure you are ready for hunting season!

Deer Season XP Copper Impact ammunition is available in 20-round boxes and can be used in areas that require lead-free ammunition.

SAUER Introduces Ultralight S101 Highland XTC Carbon-Fiber Rifle

From J.P. Sauer & Sohn

J.P. Sauer & Sohn, Germany’s oldest manufacturer of hunting firearms, is pleased to introduce the ultralight S101 Highland XTC carbon-fiber rifle.  Weighing just 5.4 lbs. in the .308 Win version, this highly accurate bolt-action rifle is ideal for strenuous hunts when every ounce counts. 

The S101 features a hand-laid, carbon-fiber stock with advanced recoil absorbing properties.  The barrel is fluted and threaded for additional weight reduction and cold-hammer forged for guaranteed precision of less than one MOA at 100 yards.  The barrel and receiver also feature Sauer’s Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) surface for maximum corrosion protection.

“The DLC layer is 40 times thinner than a human hair while offering key advantages such as superior surface hardness and maximum rust protection and wear resistance,” said Jason Evans, CEO, Blaser Group.  “Many advances were made in the production of the Highland XTC, and it now holds the record as Sauer’s lightest rifle ever.”

Additional features include superb balance, a crisp match-grade trigger, fluted bolt, and Sauer’s Dura Safe direct firing pin safety which operates as an ergonomic slide on the bolt shroud for enhanced safety and optimum operation.  The Highland XTC consistently delivers precision and accuracy even under the most extreme climate conditions. 

The Sauer S101 Highland XTC carbon-fiber rifle is available in all current calibers in the S101 series and, depending on the caliber, in barrel lengths from 20-inches to 22-inches.

MSRP: $3,000
