It looks like they may actually have a functional web site now.

They have also revamped their product line. The AR-style rifle now looks a lot more AR-like. And the mid-size 1911s now have 4-1/4" barrels, like a Colt Combat Commander, rather than 4" barrels like so many of the Colt wannabees.

Those revolvers are externally clones of the Colt Police Positive/Detective Special (the internal lockwork is like later Colts such as the Python), and they are VERY affordable.

This is relevant to my interests. I like that they still sell a nickel Super. That has been on my wish list for a long time.

There's just something hypnotizing about polished nickel guns. And .38 Super just adds to the flavor of it. If I was to buy one, on days it was my carry piece I would feel I had to dress in a suit and Fedora.

Wish they also offered a Super Commander.

They released their first 10mm pistols on Black Friday, with more to come!

Checking Google I see they have 10mm ammo, don't see any guns listed though. Of course they don't have the ammo listed either.

Also,  $20 for 50 .38 Super ball seems to be a good deal but at Midway it's a little cheaper than that but sold out.  Magtech is a little faster and heavier and in stock but for a few dollars more. ANd Magtech's is nickel cased so if you really wanted to coordinate your gun's anesthetic with your ammo's then that would be the way to go.

For me, a border-stamped Tribute pancake from Simply Rugged.

I've been reloading .357 mag since 1987 or so. the only cases I've ever had split on me are Magtech nickle plated cases. I won't buy it.

I'm not fond of their pancakes (at least with revolvers, they position the cylinder right over my hip bone), but I love their carved 120-style holster.  I think that would be a better fit with a pretty 1911.

Nice, but unfortunately not offered for flatguns.

I haven't had fit/comfort issues with the Sourdough pancakes for my 3" 65 or 4" 686, but I'm a lardass, so...
