New Firearms for 2026
In 2026, firearm manufacturers are pushing boundaries with new calibers, materials, and designs that cater to both performance and practicality. From updated Glock models to lever-action rifles with modern upgrades, here’s what’s hitting the shelves this year.
Glock 43x in .41: Compact Power
The Glock 43x has long been a favorite for concealed carry, but Glock’s 2026 release introduces a .41 caliber version. This new model delivers a higher muzzle energy without sacrificing the slim profile that makes the 43x so popular. The .41 caliber is a smart choice for those who want a balance between stopping power and ease of carry. At F1Firearms, we’ve test-fired this model on our 100-yard range, and it performs flawlessly with minimal recoil for its size.
Cimarron 1878 Coach 12 Gauge Shotgun
The Cimarron 1878 Coach 12 Gauge Shotgun is a modern take on a classic design. Built with a sleek black finish and improved internals, this shotgun is perfect for both hunting and home defense. The 18.5-inch barrel makes it maneuverable in tight spaces, while the traditional styling appeals to enthusiasts of lever-action firearms. We’ve seen a lot of interest in this model from Texas hunters looking for a reliable, rugged shotgun.
Radical Firearms RF 15 in 7.62x39mm
The Radical Firearms RF 15 in 7.62x39mm is a standout in the AR-15 market for 2026. This rifle combines the reliability of the AR platform with the affordability of 7.62x39mm ammo. The 16-inch barrel and nitride finish ensure durability, while the M-LOK handguard allows for easy customization. At F1Firearms, we’ve built and tested several of these rifles on our Spring, TX CNC floor, and they’re proving to be a hit with both range shooters and FFL dealers.
Marlin Model 444 150th Anniversary Edition
Marlin celebrates its 150th anniversary with the Model 444 lever-action rifle. This limited-edition rifle features a premium walnut stock, a brass receiver, and a 24-inch barrel chambered in .444 Marlin. It’s a collector’s dream and a functional hunting rifle rolled into one. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and we’ve already had several pre-orders from Texas customers who appreciate the blend of tradition and performance.
