Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of the new Walther Q4 TAC pistol?

The Walther Q4 TAC boasts a 4.6-inch threaded barrel, a factory-cut optic mounting plate, a fiber optic front sight, and adjustable rear sights. Notably, it includes two recoil springs, one for unsuppressed and another for suppressed shooting, to optimize performance with silencers.

How does the Pachmayr Guardian Grip improve handling on small revolvers?

The Pachmayr Guardian Grip features an extension that deploys when gripping the firearm, activated by a switch under the trigger guard. This provides a full grip for users with larger hands without compromising the concealed carry profile of small revolvers like the Ruger LCR and S&W J frame.

What is innovative about the Fightlite Raider pistol's design?

The Fightlite Raider, built on the SCR platform, features a compact design with a 7.5-inch barrel and a unique recoil spring system housed within the pistol grip. This system utilizes a chopped AR-15 bolt carrier and a bar unit, drawing inspiration from semi-auto shotgun mechanisms to achieve its small form factor.

What are essential gunsmith tools for shooters?

Essential gunsmith tools include a good set of punches for disassembly and assembly, a comprehensive screwdriver set like Wheeler's 80-piece kit for various screw types, and a reliable torque wrench for accurately mounting optics and securing barrel nuts on AR-15 platforms.
