Frequently Asked Questions

What were some of the most innovative firearms seen at IWA 2024?

At IWA 2024, notable innovations included the Walther RSR3 bullpup rifle with its QD suppressor system, the universal Peterson Gun Works Chassis, the Opos Venator pistol with its low bore axis, and the roller-delayed Schmeisser DR9 PCC. A high-quality Slovakian military rifle and the anticipated CZ TS3 pistol were also highlights.

What is the Peterson Gun Works Chassis and how does it differ from others?

The Peterson Gun Works Chassis is a universal pistol chassis made from 7075 T6 aluminum, designed to fit any standard-sized pistol by swapping a tang. It features an M-LOK front section for accessories, offering broader compatibility than model-specific chassis like the Strike Industries Alpha Chassis.

What are the key features of the Opos Venator pistol?

The Opos Venator pistol is characterized by its very low bore axis and an extremely light slide, which contributes to excellent recoil management. Optional tech features include a round counter and temperature sensor, though the pistol functions well without them.

Is the Schmeisser DR9 pistol carbine coming to the US market?

Yes, the Schmeisser DR9 pistol carbine, which features a roller-delayed system, is confirmed to be coming to the US market. It offers a distinct alternative to traditional AR9-style PCCs and is noted for its solid build quality.
