At SHOT Show 2026, HUXWRX unveiled the new FLOW 45M suppressor, a 3D-printed titanium, modular, flow-through design. It is compatible with a wide range of calibers including .45-70, .45 ACP, 9mm, .357, .458 SOCOM, and .300 Blackout subsonic, with supersonic approval pending. The suppressor ships with a booster and thread protection ring, and is currently available.

This video tests the ballistic penetration capabilities of a 100-pound lead block against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to a .50 BMG. The test demonstrates that while smaller calibers leave minimal marks, larger rounds create significant craters. Notably, even powerful rifle rounds like the .308 and .223 fail to fully penetrate the block, highlighting lead's effectiveness as a projectile barrier. The .50 BMG is the only caliber shown to successfully penetrate the entire block and reach the target behind it.

This video from Yee Yee Life tests the ballistic resistance of steel toe boots against various firearm calibers, from .22LR up to .50 BMG. The expert instructor demonstrates that while steel toe boots can stop smaller caliber rounds like .22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, and .45 ACP, they fail to stop higher-powered rounds such as the .44 Magnum, .50 AE, and .50 BMG, which penetrate the boots and the mannequin used for testing. The demonstration highlights the limitations of standard footwear against significant ballistic threats.

This comprehensive overview of the KRISS Vector Gen 3 SBR in .45 ACP, presented by Brian of 1st Shot Tactical, details its unboxing, key features, and initial setup considerations. The video highlights the firearm's iconic design, SBR configuration, improved Gen 3 controls like the charging handle and bolt release, and the ambidextrous safety. It also touches upon suppressor compatibility, sight options, and ergonomic grip enhancements, with a promise of a future range test. The expert assessment notes Brian's extensive knowledge and clear instructional tone.

This expert analysis debunks myths surrounding .45 ACP's 'deadliness' compared to 9mm. It emphasizes that effective handgun stopping power relies on penetration depth, bullet expansion, and crucial shot placement, rather than raw energy or caliber alone. Modern ammunition has significantly narrowed the performance gap, making shooter skill and preparation the primary determinants of effectiveness.

This video demonstrates the ease of concealed carry, particularly for women, using an FN 509 Compact pistol. It highlights practical holstering techniques for appendix carry and shows how effectively the firearm can be concealed under casual clothing with minimal printing. The FN 509 Compact is presented as a user-friendly option for everyday carry.

Hickok45 reviews the FN Reflex, a micro 9mm pistol, highlighting its internal hammer-fired action as a key differentiator from typical striker-fired micro-compacts. A live-fire demonstration at an outdoor range showed the pistol performing reliably with steel targets. The review emphasizes the FN Reflex's suitability for concealed carry and self-defense.

This video provides an initial look at the FN Reflex pistol, highlighting its standard and MRD configurations. The speaker, demonstrating a high level of expertise, compares its size to the Sig Sauer P365 and notes the inclusion of both 11 and 15-round magazines. The trigger is praised for its crispness, an improvement over the FN 509. The demonstration concludes with live fire at an indoor range, with anticipation for future training once holsters are available.

This review from FN America highlights the FN 510 Tactical and FN 545 Tactical handguns. The presenter, acting as a brand ambassador, expresses enthusiasm for both models, noting their tactical features like threaded barrels and optic-ready slides. The video provides a first look at these high-capacity pistols in different finishes.
