CZ has the DP fiber optic/black out rear, really nice setup. Love a dot but these are nice and simple.

Is it true that Staccato it is very possible in deep financial trouble or is it just rumors?

Reports circulating in August 2026 indicated that Staccato had laid off a substantial number of employees at its Florence, Texas, operation.

In August 2026, Staccato abruptly terminated relationships with a significant number of authorized firearms dealers.

Staccato described the move as a strategic restructuring intended to concentrate resources on fewer dealers.
Some industry discussions estimated that approximately 200 dealers were affected, although that figure remains unverified.

However, on September 18, 2026, Staccato announced a new documentary series featuring law-enforcement tactical teams. It also organized its September 2026 National SWAT Championship.

Do you guys know what’s happening? Why would they get rid of so many FFL dealers if any firearm manufacturer goal is to sale as many as possible?

Recently got approved for my first pistol permit. As per my experience with rifles: I'm a firm believer in the "Try it before you buy it" mentality. So I got a friend to go with me to the range to try out some pistols.

First was the Springfield Echelon 4". Loved the ergonomics. But my shots at 17 yards were all over the place. And this one only had the iron sights.

Second was the .357 Chiappa Rhino. I liked how controllable the recoil was and how the octagonal cylinder felt easy to make sure it was aligned. But again, my shots were all over the paper.

Last was the Springfield Armory Operator in .45 ACP. at 17 yards, I actually managed to get a grouping. Nothing to write home about, but at least it looked somewhat consistent.

Unless this was some kind of weird beginners luck, I'm considering making the Operator my first pistol. But I'd just like some kind of explanation about why I managed to get a better grouping compared to the 9mm.

I’m thinking about putting a stock on my Tisas since I’m in a free state and have a suppressor for it. I figured it’d handle like my C96 and make it easier to shoot.

I’m planning on doing the paperwork just in case the laws change.

Honestly, what do you guys think?

Admittedly don't know too much about lights, and while I can see it's a $50 Amazon piece, it is up to 3x brighter than a TLR-7X.

Been thinking about switching to over pressured .45 ammo for my ccw. Problem is I can only find hollow points which are more expensive. Anyone know of any fmj or training rounds I can use at the range? Thanks in advance.

Look for a new smaller ccw stuck between Glock 48 mos 485$ vs S&W shield x bundle 499$ !!! “Will be using a esp carry I have laying around”

I immediately got a new holster for it. A better than this fake leather holster. Got a hold of FN to see if this had a recall on it. It is one of the ones that don't. Next do some upgrades to it. Gotta get a threaded barrel and a silencer on this thing.

Why do people hate the Taurus judge
For a 45 lc wheel gun isn’t it at least kinda cool

Ive been eyeing the Tisas M1911A1 offered by the CMP, but I have found I can get the Tisas 1911A1 Classic Government for quite a bit less on sale right now. They look identical in pictures except for small differences in the marking. Are there any other differences?

I just picked up my new Shield X today and I need a holster recommendation. I'm more over an OWB kind of person. I leave my shirts untucked. But especially with cooler weather here I'll have hoodies on anyways. I have the threaded barrel specifically so I could carry it with my SAW Shiv if I wanted to. But I'm having trouble finding any holster that would allow that. I also have a Holosun P.ID light, and I don't see to many options for those style lights either. So any recommendations? I have a belly band, maybe that's my best option.

Got banned from r/SigSauer for a P320 joke so hope y'all will enjoy the superior platform instead lol

I asked which one to go and here we are.

12500 NOK with 5 mags, a leather holster, 3 mag holder and a box if ammo.

I think it is a good price especially here.

I’ve pretty much been exclusively shooting with optics since I’ve gotten into the hobby. I really want to get into shooting irons… revolvers mainly, but I’d like to take the dots off one or two of my guns and use the factory irons.

Every time I do, I’m having a lot of trouble focusing. I end up closing one eye so that I can line the sights up properly.

Anyone have any tips for transitioning between red dot and irons? Just more practice, or am I missing something? I’d like to get to the point where I can bring red dots and iron sights to the range on the same day, and use them both.

Its getting to be winter and here in michigan that meams dressing in layers. This can make it hard to conceal everywhere I am going. I want to have an OWB holster with some kind of active retention but i dont want a drop leg holster or anything that looks too tactical.

My edc for this type of weather is a walther pdp compact with 4" barrel. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions outside of a typical duty holster like safariland.
