First Look at Springfield's Official SAINT Victor AR-10 Pistol in.308 Release

One of the most widely purchased pistols in history is the 9mm Glock 19. You might argue about its aesthetics or ergonomics, but there is no denying that it has lasted the test of time thanks to its simplicity of use, low maintenance requirements, and unwavering dependability. In fact, that could be said of the majority of the pistols in the Glock series, to the point that a cottage industry has developed around the platform to allow customers to turn their Glock 19 pistols into unique models.

Battle with Our Custom Glock 19
The market for Glock modifications is incredibly strong. Zev Technologies and Grey Ghost Precision are two businesses in this specialised sector (GGP). In this episode of “Tale of the Tape,” we’ll compare the packages provided by the two businesses in a bespoke Glock 19 head-to-head comparison of features and performance.

Specifications for the Grey Ghost Combat Pistol
The GGP Combat Pistol Compact features appealing next-generation style with its sculpted slide and radical frame profile, and it nearly has the appearance of a movie prop. It is a really visually pleasing handgun in my opinion. It is delivered from GGP fully assembled with a discreet, elegant, and incredibly powerful Polymer80 frame.

A double-undercut triggerguard, an accelerator cut, an expanded beavertail, and a thumb ledge for right-handed shooters are among the ergonomic elements of the frame. It handles more like a 1911 because the frame has a 107.5-degree grip angle rather than the conventional Glock’s 110.5-degree grip angle. A Picatinny/STANAG rail that is lined up with the bore is another wonderful addition. Additionally, the frame comes in black or cobalt grey for a bit additional diversity.

Other Grey Ghost Characteristics
The slide is made of 17-4 stainless steel that has been precisely machined to crucial tolerances of 0.003 inches for improved accuracy. Compared to an OEM slide, this makes the fit to the frame tighter. It has sharply cut cocking serrations on the front and back. Additionally, it is already pre-milled to accept a Trijicon Ruggedized Miniature Reflex (RMR) sight without the need for an adapter plate. As a result, the slide action is more evenly balanced and the optic is kept closer to the bore line for quicker acquisition. The pistol ships with a G10 cover plate mounted in place of an optic. The slide also has a black nitride coating for improved corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal.

The slide was fitted by Grey Ghost with Night Fision tritium sights, which have a U-notch at the back and a yellow ring around the front sight’s insert. The 416R steel match-grade barrel can be ordered with either a stainless or black nitride finish. Extended controls, a CMC Signature Flat trigger, and three 15-round Magpul magazines are also included with the GGP Compact.

Spartan Details for ZEV Z19
Zev Technologies’ Spartan customising package is anything but thrifty and austere. It has an incredible array of unique components and characteristics that aren’t found on standard handguns.

Zev constructed the Spartan kit I got on a G19 frame provided by the buyer. Zev stippled it on the grip, behind the triggerguard, along the side, above the trigger, and where the thumb of the support hand rests. The stippling is slightly uneven in some places if you look closely, but the real beauty is in the way it feels. I was astounded by how cosy and safe the Spartan felt in my hands the first time I picked it up.

But the Spartan is much more than that. The most noticeable is Zev’s specially cut slide made of 17-4 stainless steel. Additionally, it has a PVD or DLC coating. To save weight and highlight the dimpled, match-grade, 416R steel barrel with a burnt bronze finish, the slide has window cutouts up front. Additionally, the front and back of the weapon include cocking serrations. Zev also pre-milled the top so that a Trijicon RMR could be attached without the use of an adapter plate.

The Strength of Zev
With unique components including the Curved Face Pro Trigger, Zev Pro Connector, and trigger spring, the Spartan makes use of Zev Technologies’ expertise in trigger systems. The majority of the other internal components, such as the Zev Pro striker spring, steel guide rod, stainless firing pin safety, skeletonized striker, and 15-pound recoil spring, are also custom-made.

External controls, such as the enlarged magazine release and slide stop, as well as Zev’s fiber-optic front sight and combat-style rear sight, round out the Spartan. Little of the original pistol has been preserved; that isn’t the full list of alterations, but you get the point. On a customer-provided frame, the Spartan package will cost about $1,660 overall.

Glock 19 Range Duel Custom
I was able to compare the performance and handling of both pistols over the course of a few weeks by taking them both to the range. The outcomes were somewhat uneven. For instance, the GGP Compact’s grip angle and texturing felt excellent and worked well when shooting, but the Spartan’s stippling appeared to really lock the handgun in; it felt like it belonged in my hands.

On the other hand, my large hands frequently get nipped by a G19’s slide. The Spartan also fell victim to this. This problem was resolved by the GGP Compact’s expanded beavertail, and I had no slide bite when putting it through its paces. Although recent generations offer a short beavertail, this isn’t a Zev issue, thus it’s important to note the benefit of the extended beavertail for persons with larger hands.

Glock 19 custom triggers
The triggers varied greatly. The trigger pull on the Spartan was extremely light and precise, breaking at an average weight of 2.88 pounds, with a somewhat brief reset. Although having a light trigger break is fantastic for competition, you should certainly give it some serious thought before adding one to a defensive handgun.

However, the GGP Compact’s trigger snapped at precisely 5.5 pounds. When compared to a conventional Glock trigger, the enhanced, quicker reset is the key benefit. The break was also considerably cleaner and lacked any spongeiness. The reset’s duration was identical to the Spartan’s trigger’s. In fact, it was difficult for me to tell which reset was shorter.

With regard to dependability, neither pistol had any issues with cycle, feeding, or ejection. During the range workouts with Sellier & Bellot 115-grain FMJ rounds, I did have a few light priming strikes with the Spartan. The light strikes, though, were restricted to that specific ammo and could have been caused by hard primers. This wasn’t entirely unexpected given the low level of the competition trigger.

Glock 19 Custom Range Results
Using premium ammo from Federal, Hornady, and Sig Sauer, both guns produced groups that were 1.5 to 2 inches broad at a distance of 15 yards. With an average group size of roughly 1.75 inches, the GGP Compact routinely outperformed the Spartan. The Spartan would typically shoot four shots under an inch for practically every group, but a fifth hole would raise the group’s average size to about 2 inches. The correct loads for individual firearms can be found by end users; nevertheless, that was with the ammunition I had on hand.

The GGP Compact behaved somewhat similarly to the Spartan. Even though the grips were different, neither appeared to have a clear advantage over the other while firing. Each has advantages over the other, with the GGP Compact’s 1911-like pointability and expanded beavertail reducing slide bite on the GGP Compact and the Spartan’s comfort and feel on the Spartan.

Glock 19 Custom Verdict
Neither pistol managed a conclusive knockout. Each one exchanged blows and contributed a unique flair to the fight. The Spartan is more of a competition piece with all the bells and whistles thanks to its light trigger, magazine well, and superb front sight. However, it is simple to replace a few components for carry on a daily basis. The GGP Compact’s outward attractiveness and extremely practical battle gear, however, are its strong suits. This incorporates the low-profile, enlarged slide release and the tritium Night Fision sights.

The only other difference between the two, other from these ones, is that you need to supply a Glock frame for the Spartan bundle, which will cost you an extra $100 if you shop wisely online. Of course, there isn’t much of a difference there. The GGP Compact may appeal to shooters who are more concerned with portability, while the Spartan’s extras may appeal to enthusiasts who are more focused on competition. Each bundle is customised to meet a specific demand or niche. Each sample excels at what it attempts to do. The end customer will be extremely delighted whichever option they select.

The Nighthawk TRS Comp Pistol

Published

on

The Nighthawk TRS Comp Pistol

The new TRS Comp pistol from Nighthawk Custom is a full-sized, government frame 9mm double stack built around a match grade barrel and a monolithic slide. It’s built to compete and starts at $4,599.

The TRS Comp comes standard with a recon rail under the barrel and a dimpled rear cocking design that offers ample traction when racking the slide. It also sports unique dimpled frame and slide textures that match the grip pattern.

Integrated Compensator

The TRS Comp is Nighthawk Custom’s first full-size pistol designed around a double stack frame. It features a 17+1 capacity and incorporates Nighthawk’s Fire Hawk compensator, which boasts a precision-designed port that reduces muzzle flip for quicker follow up shots.

This model also features a unique dimpling texture found throughout the slide and grip, which provides ample grip while being snag-free during holstering. The TRS Comp uses a 14K gold bead front sight that does an excellent job catching light, coupled with a Heinie Ledge Black rear sight for quick target acquisition.

The pistol also features Nighthawk Customs’ Interchangeable Optic System (IOS), which is a dedicated dovetail machined onto the slide and allows for optic mounting with adapters. This system allows for an interchangeable series of sight options to quickly switch rear sights in a matter of seconds.

Interchangeable Optic System

Nighthawk Custom’s Interchangeable Optic System allows a user to switch from a plate with a traditional rear sight to a red-dot optic in seconds. This feature is especially beneficial for concealed-carry practitioners who want to train with a red-dot but still carry a traditional rear sight.

Nighthawk’s unique IOS system involves milling the top rear section of their slide to interface with an interchangeable series of sight options, including a Trijicon RMR and other red-dot sights. This low-profile system also incorporates a suppressor-height rear sight as a backup to the optic’s front sight.

The TRS Comp features a match grade 5.00′′ barrel on a government sized frame with a monolithic slide, a full-length dust cover and an integrated single-port compensator. This combination reduces muzzle flip and delivers faster follow-up shots on the range, a must-have for competitive shooters.

The TRS Comp is finished in black nitride for a sleek, durable look. The lightweight aluminum trigger possesses a serrated flat face and a gold bead front sight does an excellent job catching light, providing quick target acquisition. A Heinie Ledge Black rear sight completes the package.

Match Grade Barrel

One of the most important features of any match pistol is a properly fitted barrel. A true match grade barrel will have zero play in the muzzle or at the hood, and it should glide into battery smoothly without any drag or snag on the slide.

This is achieved by carefully fitting the barrel to all of the chamber hood contact surfaces and the lower locking lug. Once this is done it will have a true target fit and shoot groups that rival a 1911 handgun.

The TRS Comp is the first Nighthawk Custom model to be designed around a double stack frame, offering 17+1 capacity and using their integrated compensator, the fire hawk. The compensator has a precision port that reduces muzzle flip and helps shooters stay on target for follow up shots.

Unique Dimpled Texture

The TRS Comp is the newest addition to Nighthawk’s line up. It is a high-end double stack 1911 that packs a 17+1 punch, as well as a lot of style and class. It also happens to be the most accurate and durable gun in its caliber. It also comes in a variety of colors and finishes, from matte black to high-shine chromium. Its crown jewel is the aforementioned patented integrated compensator, which may be the best thing to happen to your sidearm in years. It is a real head turner, especially for those who don’t usually opt for the sexy gun. The aforementioned gizmo is accompanied by a precision designed port in the rear of the slide that reduces muzzle flip without sacrificing a hefty amount of power. The aforementioned gizmo features a matching name badge aft of the slide, as well as a match-grade 5″ barrel and a full-length dust cover with accompanying nifty-fun accessory rail.

AGP Arms PC Charger Brace

Published

on

AGP Arms PC Charger Brace

The PC Charger is a pistol chambered in 9mm, and it can take Glock magazines. It is very popular and has become more of a sought-after gun than the original carbine.

Many owners of the PC Charger equip it with a brace to give it stability. This makes it a lot more shootable.

Ruger PC Charger

Ruger’s PC Charger is a pistol-caliber carbine (PCC) that combines the fun and utility of an AR style pistol with the reliability and accuracy of a high capacity AR. Designed to take both Ruger Security 9 and Glock magazines, the PC Charger is a highly customizable weapon that makes a great range gun or home defense tool.

Adding a brace to the PC Charger increases its stability and makes it more shootable. The brace can be attached to the MIL STD 1913 rail on the back of the pistol.

The SB Tactical FS1913 Brace is one of the best PC Charger braces available today. It is made of a polymer material that offers quick deployment and a lightweight profile.

This brace is perfect for a shooter who is new to pistol braces, and is looking for a compact and inexpensive option. It is also a good choice for people who are already familiar with the design and use of a buffer tube.

AGP Arms

The AGP Arms brace kit for the Ruger PC Charger is the best way to upgrade the standard stock and barrel. The brace is the logical extension of AGP’s acclaimed pistol grip Gen 2 stock and handguard, allowing users to customize their pc charger to their own specifications. The brace is the brainchild of a dedicated team of military and law enforcement personnel, many of whom have been in the trenches for longer than most of us will ever know. Featuring a modern twist on a classic design, the brace is an understated delight. Its most prominent feature is a cleverly engineered gearbox that enables the user to rotate the entire gun by hand, and then lock it into place using a single pin. The aforementioned pin is mounted in the rear of the gun, where it is tucked under a protective cover for safekeeping. In keeping with the aforementioned design, the brace is also anodized black for a look you can be proud of.

SB Tactical

SB Tactical is the inventor of pistol stabilizing braces. They were started in 2012 by Army veteran Alex Bosco after he designed a brace for his disabled friend so he could continue to shoot.

SB Tactical was the first to introduce adjustable pistol stabilizing braces. This was a big win for the industry and gun owners alike.

After getting pre approval from the ATF, they began selling pistol braces for AR/AK style firearms, CZ Scorpions, H&K MP5 designs, 1913 rails, and more.

The SBA3 is one of the best pistol braces on the market and offers 5-position adjustable adjustment, ambidextrous QD sling attachment points, and a Velcro strap to connect to your arm for one-handed shooting.

The SBA4 is another great choice and offers a sturdy M4-style strut, 5-position adjustable, and an integral QD sling socket. This is an excellent option for a Ruger PC Charger gun with a Glock drum, but it also works well on any pistol without a buffer tube.

Midwest Industries

Midwest Industries is a family owned and operated company that manufactures quality parts, uppers, lowers, rails, barrels, furniture and muzzle devices for AR platforms and many other firearms. They also have a number of innovative products and services that make them a great choice for those looking to upgrade their firearms.

Probably the most useful item that they manufacture is their Combat Rail Handguard in hard coat anodized 6061 aluminum. It features eight functional M-LOK slots and two anti-rotation sling swivels. Its hefty price tag might be a turn off, but its high performance and robust construction is well worth the outlay.

What you might not have known is that they also make the pc charger brace aka the FS1913. Basically the same as the name aforementioned but a lot more durable and the brace actually folds to a compact size for easy transport. They even include a nice looking sling with an integrated bottle opener to boot.

Mini Mamba – A YouTube Star With a Net Worth of $1-5 Million

Published

on

Mini Mamba

Mini Mamba is a famous YouTube Star who has earned a fortune as a professional. He has a net worth of $1-5 Million at the age of 11 years old.

Mambas are venomous snakes of the family Elapidae, which also includes coral snakes and cobras. They live throughout sub-Saharan Africa.

Black mamba

Black mambas are venomous snakes that are found in Africa. They can grow to up to 14 feet in length and are one of the longest venomous snakes in the world.

They are very fast and aggressive, and their venom is particularly deadly for humans. It takes only about 20 minutes for a bite from a black mamba to kill a person.

They live in grassland, savanna and rocky slopes of southern and eastern Africa. They are primarily diurnal and prey on small rodents. They have excellent vision and a highly developed sense of smell.

Green mamba

Green mambas are found in coastal areas of eastern Africa including Kenya, Mozambique, Tanzania and South Africa. These snakes are venomous, which makes them extremely dangerous to humans.

They are a diurnal species, which means they are active during the day. They also spend a great deal of time in the trees and rainforests of western Africa, where they live amongst the forest canopy and thickets.

This snake preys on birds, lizards and small mammals. Its venom isn’t as powerful as the venom of the black mamba or the red mamba, but it can still kill.

Green mambas breed during the rainy season. Females lay eggs, which hatch in about 10-12 weeks. Males seek out and compete for females by following a scent trail or by wrestling or dancing. These combats aren’t biting, but rather a way for the two snakes to establish dominance over each other.

Red mamba

The red mamba is a species of snake that lives in Africa. It is related to the black mamba and can be found in various countries throughout the continent.

It is a medium-sized snake that can grow to be 2 m long. They are mainly found in tree hollows and termite mounds.

They are very venomous and kill their prey quickly. Their venom is highly toxic and can affect the breathing, heart and muscle function of the victim.

They can also paralyze their prey, which they then swallow. They feed primarily on birds and small mammals.

Yellow mamba

The mamba is an African snake. There are four species: black mamba, green mamba, red mamba and yellow mamba.

The Eastern green mamba (Dendroaspis angusticeps), formerly known as the white-mouthed mamba, is a venomous snake that lives in coastal regions of East Africa. It is found from Kenya south through Tanzania, Malawi, and eastern Zambia.

The eastern green mamba is a shy snake that avoids humans when possible and only strikes if provoked or cornered. Its habitat is fragmented in parts of its range and it is listed as Vulnerable by South Africa due to habitat destruction and deforestation.

Blue mamba

Mambas are notorious for their speed and aggression, and they come in a wide variety of species. They are a common sight in Africa’s rainforests, and all have deadly venom.

Of the four types of mambas, the most venomous and dangerous is the black mamba. Known for its lightning-fast speed, erratic behavior, and painful bite, it can strike multiple times in a matter of seconds.

Its venom is highly neurotoxic and cardiotoxic, with fasciculins present to paralyze the muscles of a bite victim. The venom can kill a victim within hours of a bite.
