It seems hard to believe that the SIG Sauer Cross could get much smaller or lighter, but it has. The new Cross TRAX model is even more streamlined than the original. Let’s see how they accomplished that feat.

European American Armory has two new MC14 .380 ACP handguns that hearken back to other designs. The MC14G84 and MC14BDA are new takes on the Cheetah platform. Let’s take a look at the features. 

Ruger might be a relative upstart compared to Smith & Wesson, Colt or Remington, but it’s been around a long, long time—75 years, in fact, as of 2024. And to celebrate this milestone, the crew at Ruger is set to party hearty with four new commemorative firearms. We are getting two pistols, a special-edition LCP MAX and a Mark IV, and two different commemorative takes on the 10/22 rimfire rifle.

Almost a year after announcing a new series of bolt-action rifles, Colt is growing the lineup with the new CBX Tac Hunter. The new series of CBX bolt-action rifles debuted in January of 2023, and as we told you then, these rifles are directly related to the CZ 600 action. No surprise there, since CZ now owns Colt. Back then, the CBX Precision rifle system paired the CZ 600 action with an MDT chassis, available in either .308 Winchester or 6.5 Creedmoor for your precision shooting pleasure.

Clone nerds, rejoice! Nightforce has released a limited batch of SOCOM contract ATACR scopes with all of the accouterments. Two different models (S-VPS and P-VPS) are available at retailers now. 

There is a new addition to the SIG Sauer P322 family. The new P322-COMP adds a compensator and other competition-oriented upgrades to the standard pistol. It also includes a red dot sight from the factory. 

Last month, PTR Industries Inc., well known for their US-made G3 rifles announced that they imported  Archon B Gen 2 and Gen I pistols to the US. PTR will also begin manufacturing those pistols and handle customer service within the US. They already started training technicians who can work on Archon pistols.

The term “pistol caliber carbine” (PCC) refers to a short rifle chambered in a cartridge usually seen in pistols. So why not take a pistol, add a longer barrel and stock, and call it a job well done? That’s what the Extar EP9 Carbine is. On the market now at an affordable price, this PCC should be familiar to many shooters because of its family history.

Magpul has a new, affordable stock for the standard Ruger 10/22. The new MOE X-22 stock adds the features we have come to expect from Magpul to the run-of-the-mill 10/22. It is a whole lot of stock for under $70.

SIG Sauer’s latest generation of the MCX now has its own Rattler model. The MCX-Rattler LT combines the features of the LT family with the compact size of the Rattler. How does it differ from earlier Rattlers? Let’s find out.

Walther has a new competition model. The new PDP Match Steel Frame builds on the existing Match polymer frame model but adds a steel frame (hence the name). Let’s see what other features it has.

For a long time, Savage Arms built straight-shooting rifles at affordable prices, but lately, they’ve been adding a lot of options for hunters who appreciate the finer things of life. The latest entry along these lines is the KLYM rifle series. Intended for big game hunters on the move, the KLYM series adds modern materials to the long-running 110 platform as well as the newer straight-pull Impulse platform.

Today marks the official launch of Barrett’s newest rifle, the MRADELR.  Designed for Extreme Long Range (ELR) shooters, the MRADELR is a larger version of the existing MRAD chambered in .416 Barrett. Barrett was kind enough to send us the press release and answer questions about their newest extreme long-range offering.

That headline is not clickbait or a joke. Langdon Tactical Technologies actually did it. Though it may have started as their 2022 April Fool’s joke, it has now come to fruition. So what makes this mouse gun so interesting? Let’s take a look.

The SIG Sauer P320 XTEN is back… in a special edition, with an all-weather finish that looks likely to attract both collectors and outdoorsmen. Retailers are now pushing the new SIG Sauer P320 XTEN Endure, which they tell us is hitting the market in a 2,500-gun production run.

Wood-and-blued-steel tactical shotguns are back in style! But if you want firepower with a little less recoil, your sub-gauge options are limited. Now, Tokarev USA is bringing in the TX3 20HD A1 pump-action to offer that retro look with a bit less kick. Or if you want, you can order it in a stainless marine finish for use as a boat gun.

Arken Optics is moving into the night vision space with the new Zulus 5-20x digital day/night scope. It features an integrated IR illuminator and 1920×1080 resolution. Let’s take a closer look at the rest of the features.

Good news, cowboy action shootists – the Marlin 1894 is back on the market in .357 Magnum chambering. If you’ve been paying attention, you should remember the Marlin 1894 returned to the market last July, after months out of production when previous brand owner Remington went bust. Now, Ruger is building these rifles in North Carolina, but upon their reintroduction, they were only available in .44 Magnum.

LaRue Tactical has an interesting new take on the classic carry handle mounting rail. The AccARizer rail runs from the carry handle to the front sight post with one continuous rail surface. Let’s take a look at the details. 

Brownells, once the unquestioned leader in the retro AR space, is beefing up their lineup once again. These three new retro uppers add a newer twist to the range. Let’s break them down.

Silencer manufacturer Griffin Armament is getting into the optics game. Their first two products are a 1-8x LPVO and an enclosed micro red dot. 

A little more than three years ago, Leica Sport Optics introduced their first thermals. It’s now time for an upgraded version called the Leica Calonox available in four different versions: Leica Calonox 2 View and Leica Calonox 2 Sight, both with Laser Range Finding versions.

Modular Driven Technology is now shipping their Field Stock for Ruger American short action rifles. This stock is a drop-in replacement for the factory stock but with added features. Let’s take a look.

Partizan Solutions is expanding its line of micro red dot mounts for the Trijicon ACOG family. The newest models are compatible with LED ACOGs like the TA-02 and TA-110. Let’s take a closer look. 

Hornady’s new 2024 releases are not limited to cartridges, bullets, and ammunition. There are also new additions to the range of gun storage options. The Mobilis series of safes are modular and available in various sizes. Also new is a range of welded gun cabinets in varying sizes.

In this episode of TFBTV, Hop visits CMMG to shoot the newest variant of the Dissent, and the newest variant of the Mk47. But it’s the same gun. The Mk47 “Mutant” is a beefed up AR chambered in 7.62x39mm that takes AK mags, and the Dissent is CMMG’s compact action recoil system that allows for the use of folding stocks. Put them together and you get an AR that shoots 7.62x39mm, takes AK mags, and has a folding stock. So does the AK even still need to exist?

If you’ve always wanted to build your own HK416 derivative, Brownells has you covered. Their newly manufactured, assembled BRN-4 uppers are the perfect starting point. These uppers fit on a standard AR-15 lower receiver. 

Palmetto State Armory continues to add to its Sabre line with the new Sabre-10A1. This new model echoes some of the styling of the new M-110A1 but keeps it in the price bracket that PSA is known for. Let’s dig into some specs.
