Firing the Full-Auto Steyr AUG

Even if you don’t know the Austrian-made Steyr AUG bullpup-style assault rifle by name, if you’re a fan of the original film in the Die Hard film franchise, then you’ll at least recognize the AUG by sight, as it’s the fearsome-looking weapon wielded by Karl [the late great Alexander Godunov , the crazed terrorist with […]

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 […]

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 […]

The Home Defense AR-15 – Setting Up for Success

The home defense AR-15 has become quite popular in recent years. The AR-15 is America’s most popular rifle, and it’s easy to see why someone would choose the AR-15 for home defense. An AR-15 by itself gets you most of the way there, but there are a few accessories you should consider investing in. These […]

The Brutal Reality of the Flamethrower and the Men Who Carried It

Fire as a weapon has a very long tradition. Notably, in the 7th century AD, Greeks created Greek fire. The flamethrower truly rose to prominence during World War I, and the Germans were the first reported widespread users of flame weapons. By the time World War II came around, everyone was shooting fire at each […]
