C&H Precision EDC
The C&H Precision EDC offers impressive value in the micro red dot market. Quality aluminum construction, clean anodizing, and carry-friendly design make it an excellent budget option. Performance matches dots at higher price points, making this a smart choice for EDC pistols.
Harrington & Richardson M16A1
The H&R M16A1 brings an iconic military rifle back to the civilian market through PSA's acquisition. Classic A1 styling with 20-inch barrel delivers authentic retro appeal, while modern American manufacturing ensures quality.
Daniel H9
The Daniel H9 resurrects the Hudson H9 design with Daniel Defense refinement. The 1911 grip angle with striker-fired reliability, lowest bore axis in class, and aluminum frame deliver a unique shooting experience.
PSA SABRE-10
The PSA SABRE-10 extends PSA's duty-grade line to the AR-10 platform. Available in .308 and 6.5 Creedmoor with quality components throughout, this large-frame AR delivers accuracy and reliability at an accessible price.
Glock 45
The Glock 45 combines Glock 17 grip with Glock 19 slide for an interesting hybrid. The longer grip improves control and capacity to 17 rounds while maintaining compactness.
CMMG Banshee Mk57
The CMMG Banshee Mk57 optimizes the 5.7x28mm cartridge in an AR-pattern platform. The 8-inch barrel maximizes 5.7 performance, FN magazine compatibility adds convenience, and CMMG's radial delayed blowback ensures smooth operation.
Springfield Echelon
The Springfield Echelon surprised with its excellent ergonomics and modular design. The stainless steel chassis, innovative optics mounting system, and comfortable grip make this a serious duty pistol contender.
Viridian RFX45
The Viridian RFX45 delivers a closed-emitter green dot at a competitive price point. Quality aluminum construction, extensive mounting options, and impressive battery life make this a solid option for pistol optics. Competes well against more expensive alternatives.
Primary Arms SLx 5x MicroPrism Review
The Primary Arms 5x MicroPrism delivers serious magnification in a lightweight, compact package. With the ACSS Aurora reticle and IP67 waterproof rating, it bridges the gap between LPVOs and red dots for 16-inch rifles.
PSA SABRE AR-15
The PSA SABRE AR-15 represents Palmetto's step up from budget to duty-grade quality. Improved components, better quality control, and thoughtful features throughout deliver more rifle for the money. Excellent value for those wanting premium features without premium pricing.
Smith and Wesson 5.7
The Smith & Wesson 5.7 brings an innovative rotary barrel system to the 5.7x28mm market. The slim profile is impressive for the caliber, and S&W quality is evident throughout. A worthy competitor in the growing 5.7 pistol segment with unique engineering.
Smith & Wesson M&P Shield
The M&P Shield remains a reliable concealed carry option despite personal reservations. The slim profile conceals well, reliability is proven across millions of users, and the price is accessible. Not the most exciting choice, but it works consistently for defensive purposes.
