Glock is reportedly ceasing shipments of most of its firearm lines by the end of the month due to ongoing lawsuits concerning the ease of attaching auto sears ('switches'). While compact models like the 43, 43X, and 48 are expected to continue shipping, other models will be affected. Glock is anticipated to implement internal modifications, potentially including the cruciform and striker fire system, to address these legal challenges. Initial post-change batches may not feature MOS (Modular Optic System) compatibility.

FN America has announced the discontinuation of the SCAR 16, 17, and 20 platforms, affecting both RCH and NRCH variants.

SCCY Firearms is reportedly in significant financial trouble, with their building locked up and notices of pending property seizure. The company, known for its budget-priced subcompact 9mm handguns like the CPX series and the DVG1 striker-fired model, previously had a reputation for good customer service and a unique stolen-gun replacement policy. Mass layoffs have occurred, and contact lines are disconnected, indicating a potential cessation of production.

Reports indicate Glock is discontinuing approximately 25 pistol models, with specific calibers like 10mm, .45 ACP, .45 GAP, .357 SIG, and .380 ACP already listed as cancelled on the Glock EU website. While not yet reflected on the US site, rumors suggest this move might be to make way for a potential Gen 6 release at the upcoming NRA Show.
