The Glock 17 Gen 5: Building On a History of Success

The granddaddy of all Glocks, the Glock 17 is still one of the most popular Glock models. Hitting the market in 2017, the Glock 17 gen 5 followed the traditions of the original from 35 years prior. Yet, there are more than a few changes and improvements that were added with the fifth generation Glocks. The changes […]

The Shockwave – A Completely Legal Sawn-Off

The Mossberg Shockwave might be one of the most disruptive guns of the last decade. Mossberg is mostly known as that shotgun company. Their name has been long associated with sporting and tactical shotguns. Mossberg 500s occupy deer stands and duck blinds across the country, and the 590A1 is the military shotgun of choice. However, […]

Girl Talk: Which Are the Best Guns for Women?

As in teaching or training, one size never fits all. The same is just as true in the firearms space. And since most of the trainers out there are men, it’s time to stop training with that mentality. It’s also time for men to stop making really bad recommendations on the best guns for women. […]

The Makarov PM Pistol – An Iconic Soviet Weapon

Perhaps the most famous Soviet weapon is the ubiquitous AK-47 which has stood the test of time and is still found everywhere in the world, especially among terrorist groups. Nevertheless, the AK isn’t the only Soviet weapon that has survived the test of time. The much less-spoken-about Makarov PM pistol is still widely used although […]

The Maxim 9 – The Future of Duty Handguns?

There isn’t much true innovation in the gun world. This isn’t the fault of gun makers; it’s just due to a slight stall in technology. Ultimately, until we discover something crazy, like caseless ammo, laser beams, or something similar, the tech will largely remain the same. Every so often, however, something finds a way to […]

The American Mosin Nagant, the Polar Bears, and Winter in Russia

World War I seemingly caught everyone by surprise. No one seemed to have enough rifles when the war came knocking. Prior to the United States’ entry into the war, America was producing rifles for the British and then took a contract from Imperial Russia. Remington Arms and New England Westinghouse accepted the contracts to produce […]

The MG34 and MG42 – How The General Purpose Machine Gun Was Born

World War II changed the world of small arms. The great display of infantry and armored power reformed warfighting doctrine and still affects modern warfighting. I’m not a tactics expert, but I appreciate machine guns, and World War II changed how machine guns would be used. During World War II, the Germans built their infantry […]

Walther P38: The Definitive WWII German Pistol

When discussing German military pistols many people first think of the iconic Luger P08. But I’d argue that the Walther P38 (P.38 in official jargon) should hold the reins. The Walther was truly a beast of burden. It remained the official German military pistol from the outset of World War II until 2004.    A […]

The Kriss Vector – Too Little Too Late for This Space Age SMG?

Most weapons slowly advance and improve over time. We didn’t get assault rifles overnight, after all. One genre of gun that defies this general rule of thumb is the submachine gun (SMG). The SMG advances in giant leaps, or not at all. Maybe because it’s a niche category, or because pistol-caliber weapons are limited. Regardless, […]

The Top 5 John Wick Guns – What the Baba Yaga Packs

The John Wick flicks are some of the best action movies on the market right now. In fact, they’ve changed the way people shoot action movies. John Wick raised the bar and now they’re all struggling to keep up. One big reason why John Wick rocks are the guns. John Wick guns are never just […]
