DoubleStar Corp. is introducing a new .308 pistol, the STAR10-P, which features a new Stronghold Pistol Grip. The STAR10-P is designed with enough power for varmint control, self-defense or just a day at the range. Built with the same billet upper and lower as the original STAR10 rifle, the STAR10-P puts the power of the .308 Win. cartridge into a very manageable package. The STAR10-P also has features such as the new Strongarm Pistol brace and Stronghold Pistol Grip, taking AR-platform pistols to a whole new level.

The Stronghold Pistol Grip has G10 M-Lok panels, which use a patent-pending design featuring a lightweight, anodized-aluminum frame. The palm swell provides a comfortable surface for the shooter’s hand, and the high-quality US-made G10 panels round out the grip.

M-Lok is a useful method for mounting accessories while maintaining a low weight on your firearm and keeping and a low profile on your handguard. The question is, though, what do you do with what is left uncovered by your accessories. DoubleStar’s G10 M-Lok panels solve this problem by covering the empty areas on your handguard with the security of G10 panels. At just 0.5 ounces per panel, including mounting hardware, these panels are 3.25 inches long and CNC-machined from the highest quality G10 in order to provide a textured surface on any M-Lok-compatible handguard.

Tech Wisdom: Snakes vs. Patches

My friend and I have a few different handguns we use on a regular basis. Some are for competition, some are for personal defense, some are for casual shooting and I even hunt big game with a handgun.
