In this episode of TFBTV Show Time, @JamesReeves visits the Arex booth to learn about their new maritime-oriented and extremely well-featured Arex Delta pistols made to fulfill a contract from an unnamed NATO partner. These handsome pistols are duty guns that are basically one step away from competition pistols while also being optimized for maritime operations.
