KEL P-3AT 380ACP OD GREEN GRIP


The P-3AT is a semi-automatic, locked breech pistol. It has been developed from the highly successful P-32 pistol with negligible increase in weight and size. The slide stop has been eliminated and the magazine capacity reduced to 6 rounds due to the larger cartridge. Thanks to its locking dynamics and superior ergo design-- perceived recoil and practical accuracy are comparable to much larger guns. The P-3AT is mainly intended for plainclothes police officers as a secondary weapon, or for concealed carry by licensed citizens. The small grip size and light trigger pull make the P-3AT ideal for female shooters.

Magnum Research Desert Eagle XIX 50AE, 6 Inch, Brushed Chrome, 7rds


The Desert Eagle is precision cast and machined to strict military standards from high quality steel. The barrel is locked in place, assuring a high degree of accuracy. The polygonal rifling reduces barrel wear and enhances the obturation between the bullet and the bore, thus increasing accuracy. When the last round in the magazine is fired, the slide remains in its maximum recoil position,permitting rapid change of magazine and immediate chambering of a round for instant resumption of firing. The 7/8" dovetail rib on the barrel has cross slots to accommodate scope rings.

New Kahr PM4544


Taking the original design of its smallest model, the .45 ACP PM4543, Kahr Arms recently released the newest addition to the .45 ACP line: The all black PM4544. The all black PM4544 offers a new choice for buyers, and a new look to its hard-hitting, compact .45 ACP model.
The new all black PM4544 features a black polymer frame, just like its PM4543 match, but offers a matte blackened stainless slide to add to the overall “black-out” effect of the gun. The PM4544 matte stainless slide is blackened using an ultra hard and super thin coating. This coating has been used successfully in the knife industry to protect blades from corrosion and scratches. Not only does the blackened slide offer a new more aesthetically desirable looking gun, but it also provides a tougher coat and protection for your slide. This aids in keeping your Kahr looking just as good as it did the day you bought it, even after some wear and tear.
Just like its counterpart, the PM4544 has an overall length of 5.67,” height of 4.49,” and a 3.14” polygonal rifled barrel. The weight of the new all black .45 ACP is 17.3 oz without the magazine. The magazine capacity is 5+1 in a single stack configuration. The PM4544 also matches the PM4543 with drift adjustable, white bar-dot combat sights with optional tritium night sights available. The all black PM4544 has an MSRP of $903.00.

Smith&Wesson 500 Magnum Revolver


Leading the way for Smith & Wesson was the Model 500, a .50-caliber revolver that was advertised as the world's most powerful handgun when it debuted in early 2003. The marketing pitch echoed that for the .44 Magnum revolver, which was touted for its unrivaled stopping power when it debuted in 1955. With three times the muzzle energy of Dirty Harry's classic .44 Magnum, the Model 500 was a success with both consumers and critics, earning Handgun of the Year honors from the likes of American Rifleman.
The Model 500 was ostensibly designed to cater to the needs of hunters. Smith & Wesson pitched the product as "the ultimate dangerous game defensive handgun," able to halt most any hard-charging buck or rhino. The company's revamped marketing team, consisting of former executives from Coca-Cola and Black & Decker, made sure the Model 500 was featured on TV: The company produced a hunting-and-firearms-collecting show, Smith & Wesson USA, that aired on the the Men's Channel. They also got the revolver's name plastered on the car driven by Kerry Earnhardt in NASCAR's Busch Series and presented the racing scion with his very own Model 500 in one prerace ceremony.
But as Smith & Wesson quickly discovered, the $989 Model 500 proved as popular among affluent urban collectors as among more outdoorsy types. Many of these consumers wanted the revolver for the same reason a Manhattanite might want a Hummer—not to use it as intended, but rather to burnish their macho credentials. With a barrel that maxes out at 10.5 inches long on the special "Performance Center Magnum Hunter Model," the Model 500 sure is something to look at; it also features a jarring recoil that even expert shooters aren't always prepared to handle.
The Model 500 is in fact so colossal that it got some free publicity in Los Angeles when police Chief William J. Bratton lambasted the gun, saying that its firepower "reinforces the total insanity of gun manufacturers in America." Gun enthusiasts struck back by pointing out that few criminals are likely to lug around an 82-ounce weapon, especially one so huge that it can't be easily concealed beneath a jacket.
Once the Model 500 became a hit, Smith & Wesson decided to expand its offerings for big-bore fans. It rolled out a snub-nosed version, featuring a shortened 4-inch barrel for customers who didn't want to pack a laptop-sized sidearm. It also ramped up development on another big-bore revolver, the Model 460 XVR, which has extended the company's dominance over a sector that the trade press commonly refers to as "hand cannons." Competitors have answered with their own big bores; Sturm, Ruger developed the Super Redhawk Alaskan, which is pitched as a more portable alternative to the Model 500. But for the moment, Smith & Wesson is making—and selling—the bulk of these bulky guns.
The question now is how quickly the supersize trend will fade, and where Smith & Wesson's renaissance goes from here. It will be tough to make inroads in the pistols market, where Smith & Wesson is behind on market share. (A revolver's bullets are stored in a rotating cylinder; all other handguns are referred to as pistols.) Austria's Glock has become the sidearm of choice for law-enforcement agencies, and price-conscious consumers have increasingly taken a shine to low-cost imports from Brazil's Taurus. And Sturm, Ruger's .22s still reign supreme among the smallest-bore revolvers, a category favored by female consumers looking for purse-sized weapons.
Still, Smith & Wesson's new brain trust deserves plaudits for recognizing that, even in an industry as fraught with emotional and political baggage as handguns, one of the most basic rules of American consumerism still applies: Bigger, please.

The Taurus Raging Bull .500


The Raging Bull is a revolver manufactured by the Brazilian Taurus International firearm company.
In its larger calibers it is marketed as a hunter's sidearm because it is a potent weapon with plenty of stopping power. The .454 Casull cartridge has been used to hunt animals as large as Cape Buffalo[1] and African elephants.[2]
The Raging Bull has a thumb ported barrel and a red rubber strip along the back of its grip, which cushions the shooter's hand and lowers perceived recoil. Functionally, the Raging Bull has a manually operated front cylinder latch, whose release can be seen on the crane in the picture. Front cylinder latches are required for such high powered double action revolvers, and are found on the Ruger Super Redhawk and the S&W Model 500 revolver, but they are actuated by the rear cylinder latch. The manually operated latch on the Raging Bull is simpler (and thus less expensive to produce) yet equally strong but requires two hands to open the cylinder.

Glock 19 AAC Evolution 9 Suppressor Package


To satisfy the requirements of a major U.S. Military Anti-Terrorist unit, AAC has made a number of improvements to the Evolution-9 silencer. The Nielsen Device is now completely integrated within the 1.25 in diameter, aerospace quality aluminum body, yielding a sleek appearance that belies the fact that this is a recoil assisted design. Improvements to the baffle stack and initial expansion chamber have further reduced first round pop and increased the overall level of sound reduction. The Evolution-9 delivers flawless semi-automatic operation with traditionally recalcitrant Browning inspired designs from Glock, Heckler & Koch, Sig Sauer, and Walther. The Evolution-9 is delivered with a comprehensive operators manual, takedown tool, and one Nielsen Device piston assembly. Additional piston assemblies are available in ½-28, ½-32, and M13.5 x 1 LH threads so that operators may use their Evolution-9 on a variety of 9mm host firearms. Incredibly quiet and reliable when mated to a Glock 19.

The most powerful handgun in the world!

For those of you who have become bored shooting your wimpy .454 Casull or your anemic S&W .500, you now have a choice to move on up to something a bit more manly, the Austrian Pfeifer-Zeliska. Here's a couple of short quotes from his site on the Pfeifer-Zeliska:
The world’s most powerful pistol is the Austrian Pfeifer-Zeliska .600 Nitro Express Magnum. It is chambered to fire the British developed .600 caliber rifle bullet originally made by Holland and Holland. This revolver was not originally a full production model but a one off, built especially for a wealthy Swiss gent...Mr. Zeliska.
With a Bullet Weight of 900 grains and a Muzzle Velocity 1950 fps, it produces Muzzle Energy of 7591 ft/lbs or 3½ tons !! the Pfeifer- Zeliska .600 Nitro Express Magnum is 8 times more powerful than a Smith and Wesson.44 magnum and 3 times more powerful than the Smith and Wesson .50 Magnum.
