Ten New Guns Back-Ordered Across the Country, From a 300 Blackout AR to a Knife-Revolver
Ten new guns are reportedly flying off shelves and back-ordering across the country, and a video from Survival Gear breaks down why each one is drawing buyers. The lineup spans everything from suppressor-ready ARs to a knife that's also an NFA firearm, and the appeal in each case comes down to a specific design choice rather than hype.
Key points
- Suppressed-focused ARs lead the pack. Smith & Wesson's M&P 15 X in 300 Blackout uses Gemtech G-Vac tech to cut gas blowback, priced at $1,480 (pistol) and $1,500 (SBR).
- Kel-Tec keeps breaking molds. The SUB-SDP folds a Glock-magazine pistol into a 10-inch package, starting at $600, while the KP-50 updates the P-50's 5.7x28mm P90-fed platform starting at $899.
- Novelty sells. The Mela Gun MG22 hides a six-shot .22 LR revolver inside a fixed-blade knife for $1,499, and it's a real NFA "any other weapon" requiring an SOT FFL transfer.
- Rimfire options are expanding. CVA's Cascade Rimfire bolt-action starts at $399, and the Adler RF224 semi-auto .22 brings AR-style ergonomics to plinking.
- High-end builds stand out. Shadow Systems' E526 AR pistol ($2,179) and Beretta's one-off Titan rifle show how far materials and engineering have pushed the category.
Quick take
This roundup from Survival Gear is less about hard news and more a snapshot of where buyer interest is trending right now, from suppressor-optimized rifles to oddball rimfire builds. Worth a watch if you're shopping or just want to see what's catching fire at the counter.
