Is there any new firearm innovations anymore when it comes to

>>32249796
No, and there likely won't be in your lifetime.

about a year or two ago, some company made a roller lock 1911.

thought it was kinda cool, but cost somewhere around 5k

>>32249796
I don't own a judge. But a gun that fires boolets and slugs sounds like something relatively new.

Probably a lot more "smart gun" bullshit

Only other big thing could be caseless, but don't hold your breath.

Well, pocket pistols and small firearms are being built with lighter materials and are able to handle higher calibers. There's also bullpup pistols - making them even more compact. So, you're essentially getting smaller pistols that pack a bigger punch

No.

hell, there really isn't any innovation in rifles.

jim sullivan's got some stuff in the works for the AR
don't know if any of it'll ever see the light of day

Things can only be improved on so much.
Take hammers. They started out as rocks, and then someone made a hammer, and weve been using more or less the same thing for centuries.

Somewhere along the line ball peens and claw hooks were innovated, but those are just quality of life attachments to what is essentially the same primary tool.

You might see some new materials be some fad or another, but as far as the mechanics of how they work, they are pretty much optimized at this point and only radically different materials might change that.

Probably this is the closest thing.

Ehhh...

What about smart pistols?

The ones that read fingerprints as a safety feature?

LeMat would like a word with you, swine.

That pic makes me wonder why nobody has created guns for babies.

Have I uncovered a new market /k/?

You'd have to get the Federal Government out of the Gun Control business if you ever wanted to see real innovations at a commercial level. Keeping things nice and stagnant at as close to 1800s-level of technology is the entire point of all their efforts in that area.

The last big advancement was Russia and China implementing the helical ultra-high-capacity magazine at scale (something originally invented by Americans decades ago, only to be suppressed by the Feds).

Probably we will see one or the other finally bring out caseless in the new few years, as well. The US Military has supposedly been fielding / field-testing plastic-cased round LMGs over the past decade, right?

Quad-stack magazines aren't anything new, again decades old tech that's just been suppressed by Feds. The particular recoil mitigation they're using is unexplained, but in general recoil mitigation is in the same boat - only has meaning in full-auto fire which is Federally suppressed. They even say in the video 'probably should have happened years ago'.
