From the depths of Camarillo, California, behind enemy lines, there is an agency so secretive I am in danger of even bringing you this information. Lips were unsealed and blood was shed but I must give my full report on Agency Arms, for I don’t have much time.
Aside from the cloak and dagger, Agency Arms conducts their business in a very top-secret and official manner. If you have purchased or are in line to purchase a handgun from Agency Arms a detailed and informative call from “The Commissioner” might have been received. From what little we know, The Commissioner is not the owner of Agency but one of the higher-ups. If you have purchased a firearm The Commissioner will let you know you are an “Agent” who is now apart of “The Brotherhood”. While all in good fun, and even though it is slightly hokey, the feeling that you get from being apart of something bigger is enthralling to say the least.
Agency Arms is a relatively new business but they are making leaps and bounds in the firearm industry. Being veteran and LEO owned, Agency Arms was started in January of 2015 and they are quickly becoming the foremost customizer of Glock handguns in the US.
If you are one of the fortunate few, you will have one of the Fatal 15 pistols that Agency Arms produced along with SSVI and Blown Deadline. The Fatal 15 line was a limited production of 15 highly modified Glock 19s that sold out within hours and was the cornerstone of fame for Agency Arms. For the rest of us mortals, we can only dream about owning such a pistol. This dream became one step closer to coming true on January 21, 2016 with the release of the NOC.
The Agency Arms NOC release was a highly publicized event during Shot Show 2016, and the turnout couldn’t have been better. Lucky for you guys, TJ was able to get an exclusive with Paul Van Dunk and the NOC at Shot Show 2016 before the official release. The NOC is a Glock-based sight-tracking pistol with a lot of very unique features. While there are other compensated handguns out on the market, the NOC is Agency Arms’ version of a compensated Glock.
When you look at the pistol for the first time, you can’t help but notice the the compensator. Agency had to do a lot of R&D to make sure the comp was tuned to handle a variety of common loads, as well as integrate the front sight and make sure everything was timed perfectly. The NOC supports Warren Sights, and can be changed out by the end-user to meet their specific needs.
The NOC has the frame and slide that are the size of a Glock 19 but the added compensator brings the overall size of the slide assembly to that of a Glock 17. The NOC is compatible with standard Glock 17 holsters which won’t need any modification unless you are running an accessory on the rail. The frame of the NOC is manufactured by Lone Wolf Distributors and was chosen by Agency Arms for a couple different reasons. The Lone Wolf frame has a slightly modified angle which is similar to that of a 1911 and it has a higher beavertail that enables the shooter to get a much better purchase on the grip.
Agency was aiming to create a pistol that appealed to shooters throughout the industry. With the slide they left the option open to the purchaser to install an RMR or not. If you decide not to run an RMR, Agency has included their “Battle Plate” which is standard on all models to fill in the void. The NOC will come with 3 different spring rate packages; 13, 15 and 18 pounds. The different spring rates allow the shooter to tailor the pistol to fit their ammunition of preference. Agency Arms has also included serrations across the front, rear and sides of the slide to aid the user in gripping in their area of preference. The theme of a universal handgun is shown consistently throughout the design and will be a favorite among the large spectrum of shooters.
Agency Arms has a big year ahead of itself with the production of the NOC going in to effect. You can be sure that Tactical Shit will do everything in its power to get a hold of a NOC for testing as this pistol took Shot Show 2016 by storm. While prices of the NOC and Project Classified AR were not listed, one can only guess how much they will cost. This pistol won’t be for everyone, but it wasn’t made for just anyone. If you desire nothing less than the highest quality custom handgun that will outperform everything on the market, look no further then the Agency Arms NOC.
If you were watching the videos Tactical Shit posted to the YouTube page, you would have seen TJ with the new “Project Classified” rifle that Agency will be producing. The base for this rifle is a lightened forged, not billet, receiver set. It is seen sporting a Magpul stock, grip and MBUS Pro sights. This rifle has an ambidextrous magazine and bolt release as well as an ambi charging handle and safety. A special comp is included and permanently attached to a 14.5” barrel making the overall barrel length 16”.
At Shot Show 2016, there was a rumor afloat about Agency Arms producing a 12 Gauge competition shotgun. Even though Agency is keeping everything about this upcoming shotgun a secret, we do know one thing about it. The Agency Arms shotgun will be based on the famous design by our Lord and Savior, John Moses Browning, in the form of the Browning A-5.
Some pretty awesome things are coming from Agency Arms and we will update you with the most current developments on “Project Classified” and the Agency Arms competition shotgun as they roll in. Stay Frosty Shitheads.
