Co-branded with Holosun, the HE509-RD with ACSS Vulcan enclosed mini reflex sight features Holosun’s “Super LED,” as well as the Multi-Reticle System, Solar Failsafe and Shake Awake technology. The ruggedized aluminum housing protects the optic’s lens from drops and impacts, and the enclosed design protects it from ingress of moisture or obstruction. The ACSS Vulcan reticle system boasts a 10 MOA chevron center aiming point: When the optic is centered on a target at arm’s length, this circle falls outside the optic window, leaving only the center chevron for fine precision. If the user’s aim moves off target, the edge of the circle comes into view, guiding them back to center. The sight easily pairs with a milled pistol slide or mounting plate.

Creedmoor Sports’ Enhanced Press Head is a direct drop-in upgrade to the Redding T-7 Turret Press and can be installed in minutes. Manufactured from solid 416 stainless steel bar stock, it has a premium finish and offers high corrosion and wear resistance. The machining process is held to tight tolerances with particular care paid to maintaining flatness of both top and bottom surfaces to help maintain a true perpendicular relationship between the head and die. The die positions are precisely located and cut to offer an ultra-smooth thread which interfaces with industry-standard 7/8-14 threaded dies. The indexing ball is captured during rotation, reducing wear and making transitions from station-to-station extremely smooth, positive and repeatable.

In conjunction with Federal Ammunition’s launch of 30 Super Carry ammunition, Nighthawk Custom introduces two models chambered in the new caliber: The President and GRP (Global Response Pistol). The President model is the second installment of the Boardroom Series. It features a tri-cut slide with lightening cuts to help the pistol cycle faster. The custom grips are made by Railscales, and the DLC finish is equally durable and beautiful. The GRP is a base-model 1911 that uses all fully machined parts — hand fit one piece at a time. Both the front and rear of the slide feature coarse cocking serrations for an excellent purchase when racking the slide.
The War Hawk Officer was designed as a concealed carry option with the same styling of the original War Hawk model. The 1911 pistol is built on an officer frame and has a 3.8″ bull barrel. The tri-cut slide top reduces weight and features top serrations that come to an arrow point. Its Everlast Recoil System utilizes a full-length guide rod, allowing shooters to go at least 5,000 rounds before needing to change springs. The cocking serrations are aggressive to ensure a firm grip on the pistol when racking the slide or performing a press check. A one-piece mainspring housing/mag well allows the user to perform quick and easy reloads.
