Full-Auto Fun — Shooting the full-Auto vz. 61 Škorpion

The Škorpion freakin’ ROCKS (and rolls)!!!Those of y’all dear readers who remember 5 May 2025 article titled “Firing the Full-Auto Steyr AUG” will recall that I kvetched about that rifle having “that frickin’ progressive trigger made the Steyr *THE* most difficult of the bunch to keep my shots on target, even at a measly 7 […]

SIG Sauer M17/M18/P320 Pistol Just Can’t Seem to Escape Safety Controversies

  The Swiss-German firm SIG Sauer (“SIG” as in Schweizerische Industrie-Gesellschaft, e.g. “Swiss Industrial Company”) is one of the world’s most venerable and respected gunmakers, dating back to 1853, and accordingly, has won many law enforcement and military contracts around the world in its proud history, including with the U.S. Armed Forces and many civilian […]

Helwan Brigadier 9mm Range Report

Besides being my all-time personal sentimental favorite pistol, the Beretta 92FS, aka M9, is a truly iconic combat handgun. Believe it or not, the Beretta 92/M9 pistol series is celebrating its 50th birthday this year, which by happy happenstance (alliterative wordplay intended) falls the year before the 500th anniversary of its manufacturer, which just so […]

Firing the Full-Auto Steyr AUG

Sprayin’ and prayin’ like Karl from Die Hard, I finally got to rock the Steyr AUG in full-auto—and lemme tell ya, that progressive trigger ain’t for the faint of finger.

My First Single-Action Revolver Purchase: Heritage Rough Rider .22 LR/.22 WMR Range Report

As those of you dear readers who also read my stuff on The National Interest may recall, back on 2 January 2025, my review of the Ruger Wrangler .22 LR single-action (SA) revolver was published. (I had acrually test-fired the gun back on 17 December 2024.) Therein, I’d noted that in 30 years as a gun owner, I’d […]

Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount HL-X: A Thoroughly Bright Review

Streamlight ProTac Rail Mount HL-X: A Thoroughly Bright Review In a world that can get unexpectedly dark, whether you’re negotiating the treacherous terrain of your living room chasing a midnight snacky snack or trying to navigate a forest infested with bears, mountain cougars, and God knows what else; having a reliable flashlight is a must. […]

M4A1 Block I: The Special Operations Origins of an American Icon

In the annals of modern warfare, few firearms have risen to such iconic status as the M4 carbine in its various forms and configurations. But before it became the ubiquitous symbol of American firepower, there was the Block I. A weapon forged in the crucible of special operations, where innovation and lethality walk hand-in-hand. The […]

YHM Turbo Integral Suppressed Upper : One Stamp Shop

When it comes to suppressed shorty AR builds, the typical path involves a short-barreled-rifle (SBR) stamp, a separate suppressor stamp, and the patience of Mother Theresa to wait for the ATF to process both. Granted, current wait times as of March 2025 are in the weeks, not months, but still, the annoyance exists. Yankee Hill […]

CZ P10S – The Budget EDC That Gets the Job Done (Mostly)

If you’re looking for a reliable, budget-friendly concealed carry pistol, the CZ P-10 S makes a strong case for itself, kind of like that one friend who always volunteers to drive but has a car that smells like last week’s Indian food. At an MSRP of just $399, you’re getting a subcompact 9mm with solid […]
