The gun is manufactured in Slovenia fellas. Even though not too many super great pistols have come out of there, I think this sets a new benchmark in quality for less quantity($$$) still standing by for the news on when a compact will come. This is something I'll follow for a long time. Been watching for almost 5months now. The FIME group said in an email about the AREX 1S Compact: basically they have no idea when to expect a compact model. But that it is manufactured and sold overseas. Now we have to wait. Hopefully not for too long.


I've really been enjoying mine! Glad I bought it and will most likely be getting a Compact as well. I had been looking at getting a Legion 226 until I found this gun.... can buy the 1S and the 1CP for the price of the Legion.... was a no brainer to me. Still love my CZ's the best though!

Wife: Is it broken?
Me: No.
Wife: Then why does it need to be fixed?
Me: I knew you wouldn't understand.
Me: You're way smarter than I am babe.
Wife: Ok, so if it's not broken and not fixed, what exactly is it?
Me: It's taking time Hun. Just taking some time.

Glad you like the new pistol.  I'm intrigued as the company has never produced a handgun before but all the reviews are glowing.  There aren't many real owner reviews out there on the Rex Zero 1 yet, it would be great to see what you think of it as a real owner.

So far still haven't seen one. At all. No link? It doesn't exist in the USA.

[Mods agree... Lack of a link is very poor manners]

Has anyone done a complete tear down yet? I can't figure out how to remove the hammer spring.

I just found a couple of the 1CPs at buds. Only thing is they're the same price as the 1s. Now I think there must be some sort of markup on the compact. Thanks for the links guys. Appreciate it.

I have a Rex Zero 1, and *love* it.  The factory trigger is extremely nice, albeit DA is on the heavy side, though not too much for a carry/duty style pistol.

I fully intend to get the "battle ready" model that was shown @ SHOT 2017, with the red dot plate, suppressor sights and threaded barrel.

Also, K-Var is now offering the Hogue G10 grips in 3 colors to upgrade the factory plastic panels, without having to buy the special edition Rex Zero 1 with the Hogue knife. Those were the grips on Tim Harmsen's Zero 1 that he ran through Military Arms Channel's torture test last year.
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

I realize that this is an old thread, but it's directly related to a pistol that I'm interested in.  I was looking at purchasing a Sig P226 in 9mm and ran across the Arex Rex Zero 1 S as an alternative.  They're available on GunBroker for $371 delivered to me.  Are there any updates on them?  Are these still worth purchasing?

trigger pull sucks, but otherwise a solid gun
