In the arena of handguns, no gun enjoys as great of a mystique or quite so strong a passion as John Moses Browning’s M1911. Truly, this pistol is one of the first mass-produced handgun styles that brought the idea of field maintenance and shootability to the end user in quite this way. Previous examples of […]
The SCAR 16s is the civilian derivative version of the SCAR L. SCAR pattern rifles were designed to be mission adaptable for various special forces units inside the United States and around the world. The design is much different than the AR15 family of rifles. They’ve eliminated certain compromises the AR 15 had to deal […]
The Recover Tactical CC3 takes your non-rail 1911 and gives it a solid integral rail 1.8 inches long. The size and feel are indistinguishable by the shooter from a high-dollar integral rail gun. There are few really new ideas in the gun world. In an upgrade from flaming arrow technology, lights and guns have been […]
Bersa is perhaps best-known for their Thunder 380 series. What hasn’t been so-well known in the US is their other offerings in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. The single-stack BP9CC is one of my personal carry guns, though the trigger is so superb I recommend it only for the well-trained. At SHOT show 2018 Bersa […]

A single action only (SAO) trigger and a 20-round […]

The Modular Handgun System will replace the Marine’s curremt M-9, M-9A1, M-45A1, and M-007 pistols. The MHS provides improvements in modularity and shooter ergonomics to allow for efficient […]
I have five or six Glocks in various guises. I have carried them and shot a metric boat load of ammo through them. I have been to the Glock factory armorer class and their instructor course. I love the simplicity of the design. It is modular, but for so many years, Glock refused to make […]
The MP5 sub machine gun is one of those guns that even non gun enthusiasts can easily recognize. It was a cutting edge serious piece of military hardware when it was released in the mid 1960’s. Even though over 40 years has passed and it’s been largely replaced by reliable short barreled rifles like the […]
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 […]
