Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Nighthawk Custom Firehawk?

The Nighthawk Custom Firehawk is a 1911 pistol chambered in .45 ACP, featuring a compensated barrel for reduced recoil and muzzle flip, slide cuts for an optic like the Trijicon RMR, and custom G10 grips.

How does a compensated barrel affect shooting?

A compensated barrel has ports that redirect propellant gases upward, effectively pushing the muzzle down and reducing the perceived recoil and muzzle rise. This allows for faster follow-up shots and a flatter shooting experience, as demonstrated with the Nighthawk Firehawk.

Which caliber had the most penetration in the book test?

The .50 BMG round fired from a Barrett M82A1 demonstrated the most penetration, easily clearing the entire stack of books. This highlights the immense power difference between magnum rifle cartridges and handgun calibers.

What was tested besides the Nighthawk Firehawk?

The video included ballistic tests using a 9mm Sig P320 in a Flux Brace, a .50 AE Desert Eagle, a .308 Win Springfield SOCOM 16, and a .50 BMG Barrett M82, comparing their penetration power.
