NakPPI Posted September 22, 2016 at 02:01 AM Posted September 22, 2016 at 02:01 AM New gun... Ads make it look like they're either opening up a new chain of gyms or possibly an AR...

KingWalleye Posted September 22, 2016 at 02:58 AM Posted September 22, 2016 at 02:58 AM SA is going to rock the gun world by introducing the much anticipated Glock carbine in .45GAP. That's right folks. Don't forget you read it hear first.
AlphaKoncepts aka CGS Posted September 22, 2016 at 11:45 AM Posted September 22, 2016 at 11:45 AM Their ads are stupid - but they got us talking and that was the point. Looks like they are jumping into cross fit or some crap.
NakPPI Posted September 22, 2016 at 12:33 PM Author Posted September 22, 2016 at 12:33 PM HS produkt makes a bullpup rifle called the VHS, there's an off chance they bring that over here too. Hope not...

SycamoreRuger Posted September 23, 2016 at 04:10 PM Posted September 23, 2016 at 04:10 PM Their ads are stupid - but they got us talking and that was the point. Looks like they are jumping into cross fit or some crap.In the forums I have checked out this morning a lot of the talk about Saint and the ads is derisive. SA is setting high expectations for this big release and I hope they can live up to it (although as one poster observed, Smith and Wesson had a similar teaser campaign for the M&P Shield with a "Shield Yourself" video for what ended up being a first-rate product). Here is a story about the "Shield Yourself" video from 2012http://jerkingthetrigger.com/2012/04/07/smith-wesson-shield-yourself-teaser/ and here is the video from Shooting Times (it seems all YouTube versions have been deleted). This tells you a lot more about the product than some Crossfit models do.http://www.shootingtimes.com/gear-accessories/shield-yourself-the-next-big-thing-from-smith-wesson/

Tvandermyde Posted September 23, 2016 at 08:36 PM Posted September 23, 2016 at 08:36 PM they have been rumored to be getting into the AR market
NakPPI Posted September 23, 2016 at 09:34 PM Author Posted September 23, 2016 at 09:34 PM I spent an embarrassing amount of time on the US patent office looking for new Springfield or HS Produkt patents and found little. HS did patent the VHS-2 a couple years ago. I found nothing new for Springfield worth noting, they patented some 1911 and m1a improvements years ago. This leads me to be believe that it almost has to be an AR or some other design that isn't patentable. I easily found the Saint trade mark filing, expect the usual hats, mugs, etc.
C0untZer0 Posted September 28, 2016 at 04:17 PM Posted September 28, 2016 at 04:17 PM I love it when companies come out with new guns! I feel as giddy as a schoolgirl in Spring! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
NakPPI Posted September 28, 2016 at 06:46 PM Author Posted September 28, 2016 at 06:46 PM There's a nasty rumor floating around that this may just be a new social media thing like a Springfield armory forum or some other worthless crap. Hope not.

C0untZer0 Posted October 1, 2016 at 01:38 PM Posted October 1, 2016 at 01:38 PM Did S&W hype the Shield for an entire month? The release date is November 1st... seems like a long run up to a product unveiling

BeardswithoutOperators Posted October 2, 2016 at 01:55 PM Posted October 2, 2016 at 01:55 PM Cool, a day before my bday Is it supposed to be a cool gun? Or a pansy one you stick in your crossfit yoga pants? >.<
Jeff Johnson Posted October 2, 2016 at 03:31 PM Posted October 2, 2016 at 03:31 PM SA was in the AR market many years ago. I had a springfield armory AR15 for several years. They outsourced their parts and receivers. My first wife took that rifle and other guns when she left with her boyfriend. I wouldn't mind having some of the guns back.

If so, they'd be coming late to a pretty crowded market. It would need to be something special.

Ick. Granted, that's my personal opinion, but.... I still think another polygun marketed primarily for CC would either tank itself or would cannibalize the XDS market so badly that the XDS started tanking. But then, I could be wrong. $Despite my explicit instructions, Springfield failed to contact me for input prior to going ahead with the Saint.$ Of course, it may be worth digging back through IMDB or the old books to see what Simon Templar used to carry.
