Here’s What Soldiers Think Of The U.S. Army’s Brand New Handgun

Here’s What Soldiers Think Of The U.S. Army’s Brand New Handgun

April 23, 2018

After months of waiting, the Army’s brand new pistols are finally where they belong: in the hands of American soldiers.

On Nov. 28, the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, began fielding the M17 and M18 pistols picked up as the Army’s new Modular Handgun System at the beginning of 2017. And for the first time, the new handgun is being issued to team leaders first, according to Military.com, a policy that will extend to all Army units who will receive the new sidearm over the next 10 months.

“This weapon is going to go down to the team leader, which is not what we typically have in the 101st or across most light divisions,” 10st master gunner Sgt. 1st Class Andrew Flynn told Military.com. “We are putting this weapon into the hands of a lot of younger soldiers who have never fired it.”
