Las Vegas, NV – Shadow Systems, the Texas-based pistol maker, has announced the release of their CR920P, a 9mm subcompact pistol with an integrated compensator. The built-in patent pending compensator does not make use of a threaded barrel, which makes it compliant in jurisdictions that have threaded-barrel bans; instead it uses a self-locking, self-indexing novel method of attachment.

The goal of the CR920P design is to create the most effective use of space in the attachment of the compensator, allowing the CR920P to fit into a G48 holster. With this design, Shadow Systems has eliminated the use of conventional threaded barrel. Instead, Shadow Systems developed a proprietary 3-lug muzzle that works in combination with a centrally located locking lever in the body of the comp. This allows a self-indexing and self-locking attachment method within a very confined use of space, thus creating a compensated subcompact with 13+1 capacity that fits within a G48 holster. The applications of the engineering of this attachment method may give potential for similar attachment of other muzzle devices, such as suppressors, with a compact design and strength that is unmatched in other quick detach methods.

(Accokeek, MD) – Stoeger industries, manufacturer of performance-grade shotguns, personal defense handguns, and air guns, announces the new-for-2023 STR-9MC Micro Compact discreet carry personal defense handgun.

Stoeger’s STR Series has proven worthy in the world of everyday carry personal defense firearms, and for 2023, the STR-9MC provides all the features found in the full-size STR-9 in a pistol that’s easy to conceal and to carry discreetly. Ideal for small-framed shooters and those looking for a handgun that works well in multiple carry positions, purses, and OWB/IWB holsters, the STR-9MC Micro Compact, measuring 6.1 inches long, is a win.

Reliable and functional, this striker-fired handgun offers top-end features at a lower price point than competitive class models. The loaded chamber indicator on the top of the receiver automatically raises when a round is chambered, eliminating the need for “press checks.” Other notable features like the integrated rail, expansive stippling on the grip, precision trigger, and optimized slide serrations boost performance and handling. The trigger is remarkable, and Stoeger provides multiple sight and magazine options to give shooters more customization.

The STR-9MC Micro Compact Discreet Carry is available in four 9mm options. The first pair of Black synthetic Nitride slide handguns come with two magazines (one flush, one extended), low-profile adjustable sights, and magazine capacities of 13+1 (#31766) and 10+1 (#31768). The second duo is available in 13+1 (#31770) and 10+1 (#31771) magazine options and come with three magazines (one flush, one extended, one pinky), Tritium Night Sights, and an optic-ready slide configuration.

(Accokeek, MD) — Stoeger Industries, manufacturer of performance-grade shotguns, personal defense handguns, and air guns, improves its M3020 lineup while giving 20-gauge lovers more options than ever.

Stoeger’s new-for-2023 crop of M3020 shotguns can best be summed as lightweight, durable, and ready to hunt. Like the 2023 M3000 and M3500 series shotguns, the M3020 receives a slew of upgrades that will benefit the shooter and put more game on the table. Powered by an Inertia-Driven System, these semi-automatic shotguns handle 20-gauge 2 3/4- and 3-inch loads with ease. And with improved ergonomics like a slimmer grip, lower profile from the receiver to the rib, and a redesigned forend that ensures a firm grip and positive control no matter the weather conditions, the M3020 is a sub-gauge workhorse.

Stoeger’s M3020 lineup of 20-gauge shooters sport more expansive controls for improved functionality, a largersafety button, and an improved recoil pad with a removable cheekpiece on select models. The Model 3020 incorporates a red-bar front-optic fiber sight for quick and easy target acquisition, and shotgun fans get all of this at a price that puts Stoeger in a league of its own.

Available in various camo options, a turkey-specific model with ghost-ring sights, and a satin walnut/Cerakote Burnt Bronze configuration, the M3020 Shotgun Series comes with IC, M, and XFT chokes. Multiple barrel lengths are also available to suit various clay and hunting needs.
