P365 micro-compact 9mm pistols, which come with an included red dot. The new P365X ROMEOZero gets its designation from the fact that it combines the 3.1-inch barrel of the original P365 with the P365XL XSERIES grip module, giving it a 12-round flush-fit magazine, and comes with a factory-installed ROMEOZero red dot. The latest P365 is the P365X ROMEOZero which, as its name suggests, includes a Sig Optics ROMEZero micro-open reflex sight.

The introduction of the P365X ROMEOZero further redefines everyday carry by combining the XSERIES features first introduced with the popular P365XL – including the larger grip module and XSERIES trigger – with the shorter 3.1-inch barrel of the original P365
Smith & Wesson on Tuesday jumped into the micro compact market with both feet by introducing a new line of double-stack The new 9mm M&P Shield Plus, which comes in both standard and Performance Center models, comes with 10- and 13-round mags while keeping the same traditional frame – and therefore holster – size as the legacy Shields. Other new additions are an updated and optimized grip texture and redesigned trigger. S&W says the flat-face trigger will give users a consistent trigger finger placement allowing for more accurate and repeatable shooting, while the new stippling on the grip texture allows the user to manage recoil, keep a firm grip, and not irritate the skin while carrying concealed.
Today s crop of micro compacts are all very similar in dimensions. (Chart: Chris Eger/Guns.com) The Ruger MAX-9 is a game changer, said Ruger President and CEO Chris Killoy. With industry-leading features at a highly competitive price, this American-made handgun will provide a versatile option for consumers looking for a superior offering in the popular micro-compact market. The MAX-9 has a flush-fitting 10-shot magazine with a finger grip extension floorplate that can be added to the mag for comfort and improved grip.

This malfunction is somewhat uncommon, and therefore it is somewhat rarely discussed. My first time experiencing a “brass bungle” was during a major competition. I was pressed up against a wall in a narrow space and experienced the same problem twice, jamming my gun. Hot in the moment, I didn’t recognize what was happening. Brass bungles are tricky like that. As a shooter, there will be a time you shoot near a vertical surface – the wall at the range for example. But it could also be in a tactical situation inside a house or during a competition against a barricade. The close proximity will cause spent casings to bounce off the surface and actually lodge in the ejection port before the gun has fully cycled. That s a brass bungle.
Old P-64 vs. Sig’s P365: Does the Polish “Walther” Stand Up? I’m a proven sucker when it comes to old military surplus guns. Not because I get lemons, but because I just can’t seem to resist these
old firearms. These guns were built to fill the hands of people facing particular moments in history. Old guns like this Polish P-64 have a certain beauty and historical appeal. (Photo: Paul Peterson/Guns.com) Say what you will about military folk and their legendary bureaucracies. My experiences have taught me that’s a fair enough critique. However, some great innovations have also come from those who trust more than their lives to the guns they carry. These old firearms are invested with the hopes, fears, and pride of entire nations.
