New Guns And Gear July 2026

Looking for a new iron or piece of kit to enhance the one you already own? Check out these 7 new bits of guns and gear to grow your firearms wish list.

The New Guns And Gear:

MAC LMF-Series MP5 Handguard

One of the most iconic configurations of the MP5 is that of the SureFire flashlight foregrip, but old-school models are hard to find and very pricy, and SureFireโ€™s contemporary version is expensive too and doesnโ€™t quite look like the original. Solution? Military Armament Corporationโ€™s new Light Mounted Foregrip (LMF). Itโ€™s compatible with the MAC 5, POF MP5, MKE AP5, Zenith ZF-5 and original HK models. It features an LED flashlight that can put out 700 lumens and 9,000 candela for five hours, powered by two CR123A batteries. The pressure pad integrated into the right side of the grip allows for momentary and constant-on activation, and the bezel features standard scout light threading if youโ€™d like to replace it. MAC even improved upon the original design by moving the light a bit lower from the muzzle to allow for better suppressor compatibility. Better yet, itโ€™s far more affordable than SureFireโ€™s version.
MSRP: $200


PTR The Jack SBS FS

Thereโ€™s never been a better time to buy NFA items with the new $0 transfer tax, and many manufacturers have expanded their catalogs appropriately. Case in point: PTRโ€™s The Jack SBS FS. This short-barrel pump-action shotgun transfers on a Form 4, just like a suppressor, and itโ€™s basically the epitome of compact firepower. Featuring a 7.25-inch barrel and a 2+1 capacity of 12-gauge, The Jack comes wearing Hogue OverMolded Rubber Tamer furniture to help reduce recoil. It has an AR-style forward pistol grip for a pump, and it ships with both a full buttstock and a rear pistol grip. It comes with a removable six-round side saddle as well. Sights? Where weโ€™re going, we donโ€™t need sights.
MSRP: $1,100

Chiappa 92 Core

Lever-action rifles are extremely handy, and theyโ€™ve gotten even more practical in recent years as companies have released models and accessories to modernize their features. In some ways, thatโ€™s great, but along the way, many of these guns lost their classic charm. The new Chiappa 92 Core manages to find the perfect middle ground. Chambered for .44 Magnum, the 92 Core has a 16.5-inch barrel and a capacity of 8+1. It features a black finish and hand-oiled walnut furniture, so it still looks like a lever gun should. Yet, it sports an angle eject action so you can mount an optic via an optional Picatinny rail, integrated M-Lok slots in the forend for accessories and a 5/8×24 threaded muzzle for attaching a suppressor or brake. Traditional looks and modern featuresโ€”what more could you want?
MSRP: $1,100

Banish Stainless Steel Suppressors

Banish has just released two new stainless-steel suppressor models with the goal of offering more affordable options to shooters while still delivering great sound and recoil reduction. The VRMT 223 SS is designed to handle centerfire cartridges .224 and smaller, has an advertised decibel reduction of 25dB and is optimized for bolt-action rifles (although it will work on semi-autos as well). The HNT 30 SS is a .30-caliber suppressor that can handle up to .300 RUM, has an advertised decibel reduction of 30dB and is also optimized for bolt actions. Both models feature an all-welded stainless-steel construction, are HUB compatible and available with either a black or FDE Cerakote finish.
MSRP: $580

Galco has just expanded its Auto Pistol Outdoorsman (APO) belt holster line to accommodate 4.25-inch 1911s, including models wearing a red-dot sight. Made of premium steerhide leather and available in black or tan, the OWB holster features a low-ride position for increased comfort and to help it stay clear of your gear or pack. A traditional retention strap with a polymer tab also ensures that your pistol stays secure, whether youโ€™re hiking through the bush or riding a horse up a mountain trail. The APO holster can fit belts up to 1.75 inches, and it can be worn either strong-side or cross-draw style.
MSRP: $200


Davidsonโ€™s Exclusive Colt Roundbutt Revolvers

If you like snub-nosed snake guns, these two new Davidsonโ€™s Exclusive Colt models should have you excited. Featuring 2.5-inch barrels, semi-bright stainless-steel finishes, and walnut, finger-grooved, round-butt grips with gold Colt medallions, the new models are available in either .357 Magnum as the Python or in .44 Magnum as the Anaconda. The Python model comes wearing an adjustable square notch rear sight and a red ramp front sight, while the Anaconda instead has a HiViz tritium front sight with an orange outline.
MSRP: $1,700
