[SHOT 2023] LIONHEART Industries NEW Vulcan 9

Lionheart Industries, known for its modern reworking of the DP-51/K5 pistol from South Korea, is releasing the newest evolution of the design. The new Vulcan 9 is a combination of heirloom quality with modern machining and materials. It still has the unique Double-Action Plus operating system the original Dp-51/K5 pistol is known for but now has all the modern comforts that consumers want in a pistol nowadays.

From top to bottom, the Vulcan 9 has been reworked while still holding true to the original design. The slide comes optics-ready, compatible with any RMRcc pistol dot. The Vulcan 9 mounting system is a plateless system, so your dot is low as it can be overbore. The trigger on the pistol has been reworked, with a new “J” trigger shoe for ideal accuracy and finger placement. The grip of the pistol has been reworked to have a natural-feeling integrated gas pedal on the left side. The magazine capacity has been increased with the Vulcan 9 having a flush fitting 15 round magazine, another feature of the magazines is one of the provided magazines comes with a NANO sight tool that is retained securely in the aluminum baseplate. These are only to name a few of the features of their new modern redesign. The Vulcan 9 is expected to be available starting April 2023 with prices starting at $1199.
