As a purveyor of gun-things-different the Caracal pistol had my attention. What I didn’t know was that the Caracal Model F had actually been in development since 2002, and had already made a brief appearance in the United States while I was over in Afghanistan (2005). The original model had to make a hasty retreat […]
DoubleStar has been stealthily crafting some incredible rifles. Their Midnight Dragon not only looks cool, but has given us the best ten-shot grouping we’ve ever accomplished when mixed with Nosler ammunition. Aside from accuracy and build quality, part of what sets DoubleStar rifles apart is aesthetics. Looks may not be the officially important, but I […]
The Llama MicroMax is a 1911ish pistol scaled down for a different Bronwing cartidge, the .380acp. We first took a look at this compact firearms in an earlier article. Like most guns chambered in .380acp the Micromax is blowback-operated which requires a careful balance of slide weight, spring rate, and calculation of the expected energy […]
Many of us learned to shoot with rifles and pistols chambered in .22lr. Personally I had nearly forgotten the caliber when ammunition got scarce and I sought bigger booms. Ammunition has returned to shelves and one simple truth remains; .22lr is an excellent training caliber. Walther Arms understand this and offers a 5″ PPQ in […]
We’ve seen shotguns based on the AK system, and shotguns that look like ARs, but American Tactical has released something revolutionary. The Omni .410 is a shotgun upper that mates to any standard AR lower. This means your favorite furniture and trigger can now be used to sling slugs, birdshot, buckshot, or any of those […]
When Honor Defense released their Honor Guard sub-compact single-stack 9mm handguns a lot of noise was made and attention paid. It was not only a new handgun, but an entirely new manufacturer. The Honor Defense cadre consists of experienced members of the industry. For one reason or another they left their jobs with the big […]
Axelson Tactical and Hurricane Group, and Cabela’s have teamed up to raise money for hurricane relief. We gave you a tabletop look of this rifle here. this rifle is truly a piece of art. Aesthetically and physically the rifle was built with purpose. It is truly a dream build. 6.5mm Creedmoor is not a round […]
Previously we gave you an tabletop look at Smith & Wesson’s new M&P M2.0 Compact in 9mm. The latest offering updates the M&P line not only cosmetically, but also in features. Now it’s time to hit the range and see how the Compact performs. In the video below you’ll see our standard full-mag +1, multi-load […]
“Elite Performance Ammunition” is a presumptuous name. How does it perform? Sig Sauer’s 168gr .308 ammunition is competitively priced and performs well. With a couple boxes for testing we recently had the chance to run it through our 26″ Marlin X7VH. The X7VH has a preference for 168gr so we knew it would be a match. […]
A few months ago we brought you the ST9 from Sarsilmaz. This gun is imported by T R Imports and has a lot to offer. See the original article here. Fully ambidextrous, 17+1 rounds of 9mm, and H&K styling make the ST9 an attractive design for those wanting a full-featured gun without the full-featured price […]
