Handguns Descriptions
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.

Kimber Rapide Black Ice
A truly unique 1911 with stepped cocking serrations, striking two-tone Kimpro finish and DLC coated barrel for extreme durability. Equipped with Kimber Stiplex TM front strap stippling and new G10 grips with matching accents for extra gripping confidence. The Black Ice follows the success of Kimber’s Rapide that debuted in 2019 on Guns & Ammo TV. Our first sample was black with a titanium nitride (TiN)-coated barrel that distinctly gave it a gold contrast to the black-colored frame and slide. That black is an extremely hard ceramic material that improves the substrate (i.e. steel) surface resistance to wear and corrosion. The Rapide line is one of Kimber’s Special Edition series, which is further distinguished by stepped cocking serrations and slide lightening cuts that show off the original barrel’s golden appearance. It was available in .45 ACP or 10mm.
