Florida School Hires 2 Combat Veterans to Take Down Active Shooters

Don't know if everyone got a chance to see this in the news this week, but thought it was interesting. Looks like they are running Kel-Tec RDB's and Glock 19X's. Unsure from the picture if they are running body armor or some type of chest rig. Florida School Hires 2 Combat Veterans to Take Down Acti...

Re: FN 57 Magazines dissected ***added more pictures***

Great pictures of the comparison.
I wonder if anyone has ever attempted to make an after market mag follower?

I was looking at a orange 5th gen Glock mag the other day and got wondering that. I seen the gray one in the start of the thread but don't recall ever seeing any others.

It is nice to see some .22 caliber products being introduced again. If they work, I think they will be a big seller.

Seeing a lot of exciting stuff lately.
CZ is releasing the P-10 family of pistols(including the optic ready) from it's Kansas City headquarters. The 19 shooter is pretty nice. It's nice to see more things being made(or assembled) in the USA.
