EXCULSIVE PREVIEW:
The American Handgunner Tactical
2010 Special Edition
 
                     
 
Here's A SNEAK PEEK At What's Inside:
 
                     
  COVER STORY:
KAHR P45
Sammy Reese
   
               
     
               
  With A Touch Of Robar

My first experience shooting a Kahr pistol wasn't a good one. One of my officers brought up his new .40 cal. Kahr to qualify with it for use as a back-up and off-duty weapon. I don't remember the exact model number, but it was the smallest one made at the time.

After firing a magazine I observed his group was rather large for the five yard line. He told me it was hard to shoot due to the small size and asked me to give it a try. I fired two shots and looked up to check my grouping - not bad. The officer tapped me on the shoulder and said - you"re bleeding all over my new gun. My left thumb was cut open from the slide stop. Like a kid who burned his hand on the stove, I was in no hurry to shoot more Kahr pistols. The thumb healed and life went on.

  LASER LIGHTS
Why Your Handgun Needs A Laser
Richard Mann
         
                     
  The first handgun laser I ever saw was at a night-time pistol match I was running for the Fraternal Order of Police many years back. A competitor showed up with a gizmo mounted underneath the barrel of his 1911 and we all laughed out loud, especially after his run through the course. He didn't shoot so well and we rode him pretty hard about it. Fact is, this guy never shot that well regardless of what type of sight system he was using.

  GUNCRAFTER INDUSTRIES
50GI Glock Conversion
Paul Markel
         
                     
  Last month I attended a shooting school and the lead instructor posed a rhetorical question at the outset of training. "What is a pistol? "The answer he provided was "a pistol is a rifle waiting to grow up."

  PISTOLS AND SHOTGUNS
Wilson Combat Style
Clint Smith
         
                     
  Bill Wilson of Wilson Combat needs no introduction from me. I met Bill the first time in 1978 in Berryville, Arkansas at the Mid Western IPSC sectional match which was a pretty cool event for a young cop like myself, because some big name guys like Ray Chapman were present at the match. I went into Bill's dad"s jewelry store where Bill ran his small pistol build shop. Neither of us probably realized then that Bill would take his business to where it is today: being an industry icon and gold standard for small arms construction and support equipment unequaled by anyone in the business.

Paul Makel
         
                     
  Just when the popular gun culture thought there was nothing new that could be done to the time tested revolver, along comes Ruger with something new. At the 2009 SHOT Show the folks at Sturm, Ruger and Company rolled out the LCR, or Lightweight Compact Revolver.
