The Invincible Arex Rex Alpha Gen 2

[@randalljeffs7272]

Swiss engineer with German accent, dropping Newton weight measurements in the explanation. That’s the most beautiful and stereotypical review I’ve ever seen.

[@SerafinaTorgul]

German is the language spoken by the majority of Swiss.

[@dreknows]

The fact they open source grips is very cool most companies don't do that or charge

[@randalljeffs7272]

@@gregkollaeg2365 uh this isn’t a metric versus imperial system issue. Newtons are a unit of force. Not like pounds or kilograms as units of mass. USA uses Newtons too and hardly ever uses the imperial pound-force unit.

[@randalljeffs7272]

@@gregkollaeg2365 correct. But using newtons to express trigger weight rather than kilograms or pounds is a very “engineer” thing to do. That was my point.

I love Arex handguns!! Price, features and overall execution on them is outstanding!

[@americanrepair]

The level of elegance he used to not answer the price was top notch.

[@WholeCosmos]

25 mm is about an inch so 30mm is just a little over 1 inch groups 1.18" at 27.3 yards or 82 feet. that's smoking hot accuracy and precision. That trigger looks amazing.

[@AbsolutionArmament]

I feel like half of the comments didn't watch the entire video lol. "It looks like an X-series" Well yeah, The guy who did the sig X series is the one being interviewed lol. It's obvious he has a style. I also love how politely he dropped what some of us who own sigs, looked at new sigs have been saying. "We will not be on the level of sig (Pricing), But quality wise I think even more." - 5:34 Sig's prices have climbed drastically and the quality is not represented in the product for the price.

[@wcstrawberryfields8011]

The best of SIG engineering and leadership went to AREX. The last SIG (Germany) CEO now leads AREX. You want that old SIG quality? Buy an AREX.

That beaver tail idea is brilliant!!!!

[@Toledotourbillion]

Maybe it's because I've always liked action movies from the naughties but hammer fired guns are so sexy to me.

[@1.8T20V]

agree, just never goes out of style I was so hooked on buying a striker fired pistol for months and still ended up with a CZ Shadow 2 (which i now slightly regret after finding out about Arex, their pistols look sick)

[@Blue-cq2hl]

These grips look sick. I always love their stuff and even considered one for carry but lack of holsters is big suck. I'd like to pick one up as a fun toy at some point though.

[@SymonSR20]

Search "Battle gnome solutions". They are a Slovenian based company so they do have holsters for all Arex models.

[@matthewconnor5483]

Publishing specs so people can print their own beaver tails is a nice touch.

[@mikeadams6036]

I love my arex zero 1, can't wait to buy one of these

[@driftitlikeyouownit]

That's if the atf will let arex import anything. We still haven't gotten the zero 2 tactical.

Any updates on the Zero 2 optic ready or compact models?

[@ericcousinojr5222]

This is really close to the sig x-5ive 226. Definitely a cool looking gun

I have a Rex Alpha and it is amazing. Possibly the best shooting gun I have. Trigger is so sick.

no.

[@benfuct5880]

My Arex is far nicer in fit and finish than any recent sig products.

[@AbsolutionArmament]

@@benfuct5880 Facts, I own 2 sigs and 2 arexs along with buying an arex for my brother. The arexs stomped my two sigs in fit and finish. The only sig that I don't own but would want is the P210 which that's setting a high bar on most production handguns.

[@chuckcribbs3398]

“How much is it?” “It is what it’s worth.” Perfect comeback.

[@aaronfarnsworth7653]

Hopefully these get more coverage than just the group factory visit to promote the original alpha. I wondered if they would ever update it since the zero and delta both have seen updates.

[@SuperiorAutocraft]

What are all those numbers in Coors per freedom eagle?

[@gearbarrel6237]

That trigger is crazy nice

[@teletubbiemidget369]

I love the fact that they release the information for people to print different parts

[@onpsxmember]

Must have missed them. Just there at EnforceTac? Looks like Tim Castagne gave them a good direction and brought over some of the former Sig talent to get this line on track. They'll kick some ass in competitions depending on the pricing. What mags do they use? The Interchangable beavertail is fantastic! Makes it very interesting for different draw techniques and hand sizes. If they can, they should add that to other pistol lines too. The stock options can be huge if a printed adapter can make it fit several chassis systems. One of the upsides is we don't need a damn tax stamp.

[@LonghornShootingSports]

Wonder when/if Arex will bring their gray wolf competition Delta pistol to the US...

[@kittrainbow7]

Very nice pistol, all metal rulez for lower recoil and durability. I shot both polymer striker fired pistols and all metal with external hammer... for me and especially for IPSC I strongly prefer all metal with external hammer. ...but I will choose an all metal pistol, premium quality also for personal protection, just in 4 inches size, the most versatile 👍 It would be cool to have the sport Arex with external extractor (like the tactical) and the tactical with the sport manual safety, better shape. An other evolution will be the addition of a rear steel plate 👍 for quick disassembly and inspection of firing pin, instead of elastic roll pin 👎... firing pin get a lot of wear both from shooting and dry fire on snap caps (the best are polymer and brass base made👍, not aluminium 100%👎). Removal of firing pin safety and decocker will be nice also for simplicity and reliability. I also shot the tactical model in Slovenia, very cool experience I liked it a lot, very kind people 😃🙏 Very nice to see some brands bringing back quality, in a market full of crap and marketing... Nice job, keep it evolving 👍 🇮🇹
