Springfield Armory is known for their production of US Military weapons in the first half of the 20th century. They produced millions of M1A's and M14's carried by troops from WWII through Viet Nam. In our opinion, they currently produce some of the best 1911 handguns you can buy for under $1000. Their XD/XDM line of polymer striker-fired pistols represents a great buy with one of the best "out of the box" triggers on the market.

3 Gun Shotguns

More often than not, matches are won and lost by the shotgun. This is because shotguns possess very diverse capabilities, are the most practice intensive to master, and are the most unforgiving of misses (due to very limited ammunition capacity). Understanding of variances in shot size, powder charge, and choke patterns are keys to mastery of this element of the game. The use of slugs and buckshot in addition to standard shot is common place in shotgun arrays as well. With the exception of Open and Heavy Metal, 3 gun shotguns are generally conventional tube fed semiautomatics chambered in 12 gauge (20 gauge is often allowed, but rarely used). Magazine capacity is generally limited to 9 rounds at the start of the stage, but, once on the clock, capacity is unlimited. Recently, this has led to a shift from traditionally short compact tactical style shotguns to field length guns with vastly extended magazine tubes.
