Frequently Asked Questions

What are suppressor-height sights and why are they important?

Suppressor-height sights are taller sights designed for firearms equipped with suppressors. They ensure the shooter can still acquire a clear sight picture over the top of the suppressor, which would otherwise obstruct standard-height sights.

How can Talon Grips improve firearm handling?

Talon Grips provide a textured surface that can be applied to a firearm's frame or slide. This enhances grip, preventing slippage and making it easier to manipulate controls like the slide, especially on firearms with slick factory finishes.

What is the historical significance of the Colt New Service revolver with RNWMP markings?

Revolvers marked RNWMP (Royal Northwest Mounted Police) are historically significant as they were adopted by Canadian police forces. This indicates the firearm's service with law enforcement in Canada during the early 20th century.

Why did Colt adapt the New Service revolver to .45 ACP?

Colt adapted the New Service revolver to the .45 ACP cartridge to standardize ammunition with the popular M1911 pistol. This simplified logistics, especially for military use, by reducing the need to carry multiple types of .45 caliber ammunition.
