I just received my latest Shooting Illustrated. Lots of new guns out from myriad manufacturers......especially rifle caliber pistols......check out the Remington 700-CP w/Arm Brace. Very handy suppressed rig IMO.

Serious question here. Wouldn't that short of a barrel really reduce the effective range of those calibers? Also seems like if you are right handed and using the brace as intended you'd have to do some contortions to work the bolt or at least change the position.

edit: It looks cool, but how practical is it even as a truck gun?

They are not ideal for long range, however within 200 yards you don’t lose much velocity.......hunting suppressed Sapper Titan uses a bolt 308 cut down suppressed and slays the hogs he shot 4 boars and a sow with the rig this weekend........brace is solid enough for working the bolt....just shorter than the regular butt stock and why they have the longer rail on top for optic eye relief....practical truck gun for hunting but not self defense IMO.......

I've often wondered if there's a time each year when the gun makers announce what new models are soon to be available. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but that appears to be in January during the annual Shot Show.

They have one in .308 at SWFA I handled this weekend....thought about bringing it home. Would be cool as a short range tree stand gun.

SHOT Show or the NRA show are probably the two biggest release times to the public. Dealers usually get a heads up from companies that are good to work with a couple of weeks before

I don't understand the "bolt action pistol." You basically lose all the benefits of a bolt gun over a semi-auto, with the exception of certain state legality issues. It seeks to me that cutting massive velocity, of a 6.5cm especially, defeats the purpose of running a necked centerfire rifle cartridge. But, I don't have to get it I guess. I've never understood peoples desire to own a Desert Eagle either, but they sell.

What’s missing is no one uses the braces as intended, it’s just a little shorter stock. Actually a pretty good idea, shocked no one else has done it.

Not sure what I’m missing, it’s got a mag and looks magpul...their magpul stocks feed well, I suspect this will be no different confused2

It's a bolt action so you manually cycle the action to load each round.

Doesn’t do much for me. Go with a semi 6.8, 6.5 with brace and now you’re talking.

Yeah... a braced bolt action pistol is kinda like an AR that your 3rd cousin's brother-in-law built... shoot, work the action, shoot, work the action... smile ani

Honestly the more braced pistols, the better. Maybe the bigger numbers can help keep the rule-changers at bay!

And with what appears to be an end cap on a threaded muzzle, I can think of a number of tasks in which it would work well.

There are actually 2 times. Shot Show and NRA. Since they canceled NRA there are a lot of new product announcements.
