Meet the Surefire XSC

Let me first acknowledge the no-compromise carry audience. There is a shrill chorus chanting, “Carry a medium- or large-frame pistol with a Surefire X300!” I’m happy to know that untold tens of thousands of gun owners are carrying, regardless of what they carry. Armed citizens exist, and that is a very good thing. A subcompact gun on the belt beats a full-size pistol in the safe.
For those who carry the new breed of subcompact semiautomatic pistols, Surefire has responded to demand for more lumens. Meet the XSC.
Why the U.S. Military Gave Up On the Bullpup-Style Rifle
Meet the Model 45A, a .30 caliber bullpup that was essentially a hybrid battle rifle/light machine gun.
Here s What You Need to Remember: Unlike modern bullpups, which are compact weapons, the Model45A was actually a long gun in every sense of the word as it featured a particularly long barrel.
As part of the U.S. Army’s Next Generation Squad Weapons (NGSW), which will replace both the M4 Carbine and M249 SAW, one option is a rifle that features a “bullpup” configuration from General Dynamics. This layout places the magazine in the stock behind the pistol group which reduces the length of the weapon but could require some additional training for soldiers used to the legacy systems.
LIBERTY A 24-year-old township man is in Trumbull County jail in connection to an early Wednesday shooting at the Oak Tree Apartments off Hadley Avenue in Liberty.
Derek Sanders, of a Trumbull Court address, is awaiting arraignment in Girard Municipal Court on charges of felonious assault, carrying concealed weapons and improperly handling firearms in a motor vehicle.
According to police, officers were dispatched to the apartment complex at 5:21 a.m. to find a victim who was shot in the back. The victim, a 24-year-old Youngstown man, was taken to St. Elizabeth Youngstown Hospital, where he is in intensive care, a report states.
