Recoil Management For Fast Double Taps: Shoot Faster with Better Shot Placement

One of the goals that many shooters aspire to is being able to put fast, accurate double-taps on target. Definitions vary, but for most people, that’s getting one sight picture and putting 2 rounds on or incredibly near your point of aim in rapid succession (.1-.2 seconds between shots) without getting a second clear, crisp […]

AR vs AK: Which is Better? - TheArmsGuide.com

Best Modern Sporting Rifle: AR vs AK

One of the fiercest, and longest running, debates within the firearms community is this: which is the better “battle rifle:” the AR or the AK. The topic has been done to death, so I thought I’d feature the two rifles in a different setting: working together. The video embedded above features an AR-15 and an AK-74. […]

Lessons from the Great Mills School Shooting and Training

On Tuesday, a student at Great Mills High School in Maryland stole a pistol from his father and went to school and shot his ex-girlfriend and another student. Initial estimates are that, within a minute, a resource officer from the St. Mary’s Sherriff’s Department, Blaine Gaskill, audibly observed what was happening, and based on his […]

1911 Pistol Bits and Pieces: Shoot It Until it Breaks

One of the most common questions I see asked on internet forums and social media groups that center around the 1911 style pistol is, “What parts should I replace on the new XXXX brand 1911 pistol I just bought?”. This is a very subjective question that has thousands of answers. My simple answer to that […]

Top 10 Reasons Dry Fire Beats Live Fire Practice

Ask any world class competitive shooter or high speed tactical shooter about dry fire and they’ll tell you that it’s the secret to their success…it’s what separates the men from the boys. But ask a typical Facebook commando about dry fire and you’re likely to hear something along the lines of, “I shoot once a […]

Does Anyone Consider the .380 ACP a Manstopper?

There exists a continuing debate about the effectiveness of the .380 ACP cartridge in self defense scenarios. Because I possess, and exercise, my concealed carry permit, I’ve also put a great deal of thought into the caliber of pistol I  choose for CCW. My limitations to what I can effectively carry vary depending on my […]

DIY Resetting Glock Trigger Mod: Free and Deceptively Simple Dry Fire Trigger

I want to tell you about a ridiculously simple invention called “Dry Fire Cord.”  Here are 3 versions of it: I’m going to tell you why you want one and, even though it’s patented, how to make your own. First off, here are the advantages… Dry Fire Cord holds a Glock out of battery enough […]

Eight Great AR Dry Fire Tools: Safer Dry Fire With the AR-15

Dry fire is critical to performance.  In fact, dry fire training is better than live fire for many skills. But what you may not know is how to safely do dry fire practice with your AR-15. Keep in mind that it’s 100% impossible to have a negligent discharge while doing dry fire. This is because […]

Most Effective Long Gun For Close Quarters Battle? I Vote for the Shotgun

The shotgun…One of the most revered, respected, and arguably the best and most effective close quarter fighting long gun you can employ. Throughout history, the shotgun, mainly the 12 gauge variety, has played a pivotal role in warfare and day to day survival and protection, even to this day. It has been trusted to protect […]

Pop or Click? Troubleshooting Misfires

One of the most terrifying experiences I’ve had with a firearm happened when I was duck hunting, using 3″ goose loads that had spent a little too much time soaking in my “dry” box. Though they’d gotten a little crusty after a few seasons of being lugged around, the primers still looked passable. After taking […]
