New Gun Releases

Rifle shooters are constantly on the lookout for aftermarket items to enhance the shootability and their own accuracy with their gun of choice. With unique customization in mind, Arisaka Defense has created the Stock Angle Adapter to make rifles even more ergonomic and comfortable to shoot.

Praecore Performance’s Mike Olivella has been in since the ground floor on the creation of the Arisaka Defense Stock Angle Adapter. Olivella had the following to say about the adapter:

“The Stock Angle Adapter is the first installment in a series of precision rifle focused, ergonomic upgrades. The geometry of most popular carbine stocks support a variety of shooting techniques and work well within those requirements. However, if we take a look at any modern, precision focused bolt gun chassis, you will note that all of them feature a 90 degree angle for the recoil pad. This isn’t by accident. This geometry promotes greater contact surface area for one of the critical alignment components of a shooter’s position behind the rifle.

Arisaka took my requirements and went a step further by incorporating a simple and lightweight solution to the critical fitting components of recoil pad height and cant. Different optic mount and shooter requirements have shown in testing there is almost no wrong configuration, but I do have my favorites. The finishing touch that can’t be overlooked is how Arisaka made this accessory to not only work with a few common carbine stocks but also allowed it to accept a popular aftermarket recoil pad. For gas gun precision rifle shooters, this upgrade offers your rifle a lightweight, custom fit solution for your recoil pad with an extra bump up in surface area for your rear support.”

Features of the Stock Angle Adapter include:

• Alters the angle of the recoil pad, shifting it perpendicular to the bore axis
• Makes the recoil pad adjustable for both height and cant
• Use of the adapter makes the stock compatible with the use of Magpul SL pads
• Ships with either the MOE SL Enhanced Recoil Pad or the Magpul SL Limbsaver Recoil Pad (one of the two pads must be used with this model)
• CTR Bag Rider (additional pieces increase cost)

The Arisaka Defense Stock Angle Adapter is designed to aid in the alignment and recoil management of semi-auto gas guns. This adapter was specifically made with models like the LMT MWS and KAC SR25 in mind. Being able to adjust both the height and cant means the shooter can customize fit more precisely to their own physiology. The end result makes the CTR stocks similar to a precision bolt gun stock. According to the manufacturer, an OEM CTR pad won’t work with the Stock Angle Adapter; rifle shooters must use our favorite, either the SL Limbsaver recoil pad or a Magpul SL recoil pad.

Base MSRP $59.00. Price increases when optional add-ons are included.

Choosing a holster for concealed carry doesn’t have to be difficult, but it can be. If you have a Sig P365 XL and are in the market for a new option for your EDC (EveryDay Carry), DeSantis Gunhide has you covered. The latest addition to their Pegasus Kydex by DeSantis line, the Uni-Tuk, is now available for the Sig P365 XL. Even better, it can be used with P365 XLs that have red dot sights mounted to their slides.

The DeSantis Gunhide Uni-Tuk is made with a durable Kydex shell and breathable, synthetic back component so gun owners get the best of retention and comfort. Thanks to the unique design of the back piece, airflow makes it through, preventing excessive sweating or skin sticking to the holster itself. This holster comes with the company’s proprietary Tuckable 360 C Clip, which is both height and cant adjustable with an impressive 360° of rotation. It also features a built-in Spur, a claw created to improve concealment.

This holster is compatible with the Sig Sauer P365XL, a 9mm pistol made for serious concealed carriers. In fact, it can even be used with a P365XL that has a red dot sight mounted to it.

DeSantis Gunhide Un-Tuk Features

• Adjustable height
• Adjustable cant
• Claw for better concealment
• Breathable back for comfort
• Molded Kydex shell for resistance to wear and greater retention
• Multiple tensioning points so retention can be adjusted by the user as needed
• The proprietary clip can be rotated 360 degrees
• Red dot compatible
• American made
• Available for left-handed shooters

DeSantis Gunhide has been in the business of making high-quality holsters for more than five decades. They’ve come a long way from their early days and remain, as always, a family-owned and operated business that produces its holsters in the United States using premium American steerhide. They are considered one of the top holster makers in the firearms industry.

Regarding their Uni-Tuk holster, DeSantis Gunhide had the following to say:

“The Uni-Tuk, #206, is the latest in our Pegasus Kydex by DeSantis line. This IWB holster features a precision-molded Kydex front married to a back component which is an all synthetic and a “breathable” platform. This allows airflow for a “keep cool” IWB carry. The Uni-Tuk features multiple points of tensioning for a customizable fit. It’s equipped with our proprietary Tuckable 360 C Clip, which can be adjusted for both height and cant with 360° of rotation. The built-in Spur which acts as a “claw”, is an integral part of the holster body, enhancing concealment.”

In addition to this latest P365XL/P365 w/red dot sight model, the Uni-Tuk is available for the Glock 43, 43X, 43X MOS, and 43X MOS (with or without reflex sight) and the Springfield Armory Hellcat OSP 3 inch or Hellcat 3 inch. MSRP $89.99.

One of the greatest challenges in selecting a holster comes when you try to find one made to fit your gun while it has a light or laser mounted to it. The good news is, if you have a Taurus TX22 with a Viridian E-Series laser, you can now get a holster to fit it from UM Tactical. The company’s latest holster maintains the quality and performance expected from their work and enables gun owners to include their Viridian E-Series laser on their carry guns (if it’s a Taurus TX22).

This is a versatile holster that can be used for more than one method of carry including OWB (On the Waistband), IWB (Inside the Waistband), and Appendix. It’s also being produced in both right and left-handed models which is a great feature for many shooters. Not only does this cater to the many left-handed shooters in the gun world, it makes it possible for shooters to train mirror with their Taurus TX22s (meaning, for example, a right-handed shooter would shoot left-handed).

Carry method can be adjusted by using the included IWB clip for concealed carry and replacing that clip with the Qualifier Strip for OWB carry. Appendix carry can be done with either attachment although it’s most commonly done concealed.

From Viridian:

“UM Tactical’s Qualifier Holsters are handmade and constructed of 4332 Boltaron. Boltaron has a much wider temperature range before cracking under arctic cold or deforming under high heat, it also has an ultra-high impact resistance over Kydex. All our holsters are made in-house resulting in unmatched quality control. The user can easily and quickly convert from inside the waistband to outside simply by removing clip and installing the qualifier strap. The OWB Qualifier strap holds the holster tight to your body without sacrificing the manipulation of retention. Built for Taurus TX22 with Viridian E Series Laser.”

This holster is made for the Taurus TX22, a 22LR-chambered, semi-automatic pistol. The gun has a capacity of 16 +1 and weighs 17.3 ounces empty. For gun owners who carry their Taurus TX22 daily and wish to do so with a Viridian E-Series laser for improved accuracy and rapid target acquisition, the UM Tactical design is an enormous help.

Features of the UM Tactical Qualifier Holster for the Taurus TX22 with Viridian E-Series compatibility:

• Made using 4332 Boltaron
• Left or right-handed available
• IWB/OWB convertible as well as appendix capable
• Precision molded
• Adjustable click retention
• Conceals tightly against the owner’s body whether carrying IWB and OWB
• Flexible Qualifier Strap for unmatched comfort
• Adjustable Cant (0-20 degrees)
• Made in the USA

The holster ships with the following:

• Holster
• OWB Strap (Flexible Qualifier Strap)
• IWB clip
• Attachment screws (2)
• Adjustable retention

MSRP $49.99.

If any handgun cartridge has seen significant growth lately, it’s 5.7x28mm. For those who are fans of the cartridge—and of FN America’s Five-seveN handgun—there’s a new silencing option available. B&T USA has launched a new product, the Five-SeveN Suppressor and Barrel Kit. The kit includes both the barrel and suppressor and is specifically made for FN’s Five-SeveN handgun.

Jon Scott, Vice President of Sales at B&T USA, had the following to say regarding the company’s newest offering: “With the recent resurgence in popularity of the 5.7x28mm cartridge, we’re excited to introduce B&T’s sound suppressor and barrel kit designed specifically to work with FN America’s Five-seveN handgun. In order to make this project work, and uphold the quality B&T is known for, we partnered with Jarvis Inc. who custom made a high-quality, match-grade, 10x1mm threaded barrel to our specific specifications. This barrel and suppressor combination matches the look, feel and reliability of FN America’s Five-seveN pistol, while extracting all the performance potential out of the gun and cartridge — all in a package that’s a whole lot quieter.”

This B&T USA thread-on suppressor is made for specific use with the FN Five-seveN Pistol. According to the manufacturer, they are the OEM suppressor manufacture FN prefers in Europe.

Check out the video below for another look at the suppressor:

B&T’s suppressors have a reputation among many industry professionals for being high-quality and technologically advanced. They’re designed to be rugged enough to withstand rough environmental conditions and high rates of fire. Durability and longevity are vital for suppressors. When you’re choosing a suppressor for your handgun, quality matters, and B&T strives to design and manufacture products that stand the test of hard use.

The B&T threaded barrel is designed for use with the Five-seveN model suppressor. It’s manufactured using gun barrel certified chrome moly steel that’s been heat-treated to 40-44RC. The combination of the steel and heat treatment process is meant to give the barrel superior strength and durability. Having the barrel available as part of a suppressor kit means you don’t have to search for the right barrel to go with your new can; B&T USA did the work for you.

Sig Sauer’s P365 pistol line has proven itself not only popular but reliable. Building on its success, Sig has now launched the latest addition to that lineup: the P365-380. As the name suggests, the new pistol is chambered in 380 ACP and as one might expect, it’s a micro-compact designed with concealed carry in mind.

Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President, Commercial Sales, Sig Sauer, Inc., shared his thoughts on the new gun: “The Sig Sauer P365 is the most popular concealed carry pistol on the market today.  We have shipped millions of these pistols and until now it has only been available in one caliber. The P365-380 uses the same grip module and fire control unit as the legacy P365 with a lightened slide, a 380 barrel, and a lighter recoil spring making it easier to rack for an overall exceptionally smooth handling experience.  This pistol was designed for everyone but is an ideal option for shooters with smaller hands, as well as those who find the manipulation and recoil management of larger caliber pistols challenging.”

Perhaps one of the greatest design features of the new pistol is its compatibility not only with existing P365 holsters and aftermarket items, but its modularity. Yes, the P365-380 has the same fire control unit and grip module as the original 9mm P365. Standard capacity is 10 rounds, but 12 magazines are also an option. Also, the 10-round magazine with finger extension might be a good option for those with larger hands.

To learn more about the Sig Sauer P365-380, take a look at the YouTube video the gun maker released:

The Sig P365-380 has an overall length of 5.8 inches, a width of 1.0 inches, and height of 4.2 inches. Its 3.1 inch, carbon steel barrel is designed for longevity and the stainless steel slide is optics-ready. It has an empty weight of 15.7 ounces.

This pistol has a Heinie Black Ledge rear sight, a 14k gold bead front sight, and a one-piece magwell. And as the company puts it, the durable DLC finish will keep the Treasurer looking new for years of concealed carry and the Railscales custom grips top off the pistol with a cool look and perfect texture.

Every single detail of this gun, whether it’s aesthetics or the functionality of the gun, we keep a tight tolerance; a thousand’s, a half a thousand’s.”
