NRA Gun of the Week: AREX Defense Rex Delta

On this week’s “Gun of the Week,” American Rifleman staff check out a DAO pistol imported to the U.S. from AREX Defense of Slovenia.
The AREX Defense Rex Delta pistol comes to U.S. shores from Slovenia and is a double-action-only pistol chambered for 9 mm Luger that is sized appropriately and enhanced for concealed carry. Similar in size and design as Glock’s G19 pistol, the AREX Defense Rex Delta is privy to an aftermarket of accessories that will further bolster its worthiness to consumers.
Built on a black polymer frame, the ReX Delta pistol provides its operator with thoughtful ergonomics throughout. Replaceable backstraps allow a custom fit without custom pricing. The gun’s magazine release button is a bilateral design that allows users to engage from either side. AREX Defense provides an enlarged trigger guard along with texturing to accommodate myriad shooting styles and situations. An accessory rail along the dustcover is provided, too.
Feature-rich and modestly priced, the ReX Delta ships with two proprietary magazines from Mec-Gar. The extended unit allows for up to 17 rounds and a lengthened baseplate is provided to achieve an additional two rounds of capacity. A loaded chamber indicator sits topside and a red striker-status indicator is found at the slide’s rear. AREX Defense provides a Nitride finish that renders the steel slide of the Rex Delta in a matte black finish.
Watch our NRA Gun of the Week video above to learn more about the AREX Defense Rex Delta pistol.

In my opinion this is the most, or one of the most under rated companies in gun history, I have bought two of the Rex zero 1s, one in nickel and one in the tenifer Finish, which is no longer allowed in America and the nickel boron finish, has withstood salt water and battery acid test, not one hiccup between them in the years that I have owned them, buy them up boys these are going to be worth a lot of money in a few years.

This and the Beretta APX get no love for some reason.
I would take either one over almost any other polymer gun on the market.
Very anxious to see the Gen2 in person!

[@v.german11b]

Nice looking handgun, apparently modeled after the Walther P99, just like the Canik, with a Glock touch. Good presentation 👏🏼
