Gun Review: Arex REX zero 1 S

By Jeremy S.

If it looks like a SIG, shoots like a SIG, and sounds like a SIG…it might actually be a REX zero 1. Which, incidentally, is not a bad thing to be at all. In fact, it might just be a swan . . .

A company by the name of Arex is responsible for what is “the first pistol ever to be produced entirely in Slovenia,” and it’s being imported into the U.S. by FIME Group, the company responsible for loaning me this T&E sample. Back in September, we posted a First Look piece on the REX, and I’d still recommend jumping over there for the awesome Arex factory tour video that Polenar Tactical created. Serious machinist eye candy there. Well, CNC machinist, at least.

Jumping right to the swan, duck, or elephant in the room — metaphors aren’t my cup of bourbon — the REX offers a few things you won’t find on a SIG P226. What’s a slide stop on a SIG is actually a manual safety on the REX.
