Handguns Descriptions

Brugger & Thomet VP9 Veterinary Pistol

The B&T VP9 is influenced by the welrod pistol used by the OSS, the VP9 was originally designed to be simple, reliable, concealable, and ultimately quiet pistol for clandestine operations. This ultra-quiet 5-round pistol is the ultimate silenced platform. Both pistol and suppressor were developed simultaneously to produce the quietest 9mm pistol possible. The VP9 comes with two suppressors. One made of aluminum for training purposes and a second live suppressor with replaceable baffles for field use. Along the barrel holes have been drilled permitting gases to escape into the expansion chamber, releasing the gases so that the round that is being fired never reaches supersonic speed even with standard ammunition. This produces a noise level as low as 129dB when using standard 124 grain NATO ammunition. This sound reduction can be further decreased as much as 4dB by using subsonic ammunition. This noise is about the same as a car door closing.

Glock 23

The G17 Gen5 features a no finger grooved, multiple backstrapped, rough textured frame with hundreds of miniature spikes which results in remarkable traction for extreme environments and gloved operators. The frame also features a smooth trigger, reversible mag release, and ambidextrous slide stop. The magazine comes with a floor plate which is extended at the front for faster magazine change, and a orange follower, while the flared mag-well makes it easier to funnel the magazine into the mag-well. Glock\'s nDLC finish provides a tougher, more durable protection against corrosion and scratching. The Glock Marksman barrel features a barrel rifling which delivers improved accuracy. his Glock Gen5 model has AmeriGlo night sights (green with orange outline front and green rear) and a 10-round capacity.
