With few southpaw AR-style rifles available on the market, Stag Arms wanted to give lefties a variety of options in a sea of mostly right-handed guns. One of the options available is the Model 7L, which includes a safety selector installed on the right side of the gun, and an upper receiver with a left-side ejection,all of which should appeal to the 10 to 15 percent of the population that are left-handed. Designed with hunting in mind, the rifle is chambered in 6.8 SPC which extends the effective range and increases terminal performance.
While many short-barreled rifles available today are based on the latest designs, there are a few classic models in the mix, too, such as Auto-Ordnance's M1 Carbine SBR.
Garmin doubled down and, hot off the introduction of its Xero C1 chronograph, introduced its next-generation Xero C2, which provides some added capabilities and features over the original.
One of the latest options in EAA's line of 2011-style handguns is the Witness2311 CMXX, which incorporates a large, single-port compensator at the muzzle end.
New small arms with groundbreaking designs are rare in an industry where new products tend to be evolutionary rather than revolutionary. Fortunately, Freedom Ordnance marches to the beat of a different drum and invested its creative energy into developing the unique, innovative FM-9D.
