If you work the road, whether as a trooper, deputy, or patrolman, I would lay odds that you already have more junk in your trunk than you need or know what to do. While I hate to add to that list, I’m to going to suggest a piece of kit that just might save your […]
I had the privilege of running by the Rifle Dynamics shop a couple of weeks ago when I was out in Vegas, and it was a great visit. Jim Fuller and the crew at Rifle Dynamics take an approach that is refreshingly different than the one taken by most of the businesses just 20 minutes away on the Las […]
I recently examined reproductions of John Browning’s patent application drawings for what ultimately became the 1911 and was reminded that his original design did not feature a thumb safety, which was added later at the request of the Army (the cavalry, I believe). What I did not realize was how rounded the butt of the […]
I have written a few articles in the past on Glock modifications and upgrades I’ve made to my personal Glock 17 carry gun. The one thing I’ve typically stayed aware from are trigger modifications. I’ve looked at trigger upgrades from other companies in the industry. Some only provide you with the trigger shoe requiring you […]
The Canik TP9SA is not the typical pistol you would normally see on BTS. It is what is easily considered a low budget pistol. Now admittedly I was not super enthused about the Canik. Thankful for the opportunity if still a little underwhelmed. It is a Turkish made, probably reverse engineered, Walther P99. The SA is considered a […]
Most of our readers know that Colonel Jeff Cooper loved the 1911 and thought that it was and is the best option for those serious about pistolcraft. There are books about both the man and his love for the 1911. However, while Col. Cooper was a devout worshipper of the .45 ACP, he also expressed […]

Enter the Diamondback Firearms Co. of Cocoa, Fla., which offers a line of compact and subcompact .380 and […]
Wilson Combat continues to strengthen its pistol offerings in 2016 with the release of the all new Sentinel Compact. RELATED STORY: Sentinel Professional: Wilson Combat’s Short-Slide Pistol The new Compact merges Wilson Combat’s shortest slide fighting pistol — the Sentinel — with the frame of its compact 1911 series handguns. The result is a pistol designed for accurate shooting and easy concealment. The […]
A few months back we produced Vickers Slings in one of the coolest camo patterns – Multicam Tropic. This pattern is awesome when used in the southeast, but doesn’t look so awesome used on a black rifle. Unsatisfied with the Multicam Tropic sling and black rifle combination, I decided to paint guns to match my […]
The following is a press release from Ghost Inc. The CAT trigger is a 4.5-pound “semi” drop-in trigger connector for the Glock family of pistols (42/43 excepted) that smooths the trigger action and reduces over-travel. Developed by Ghost Inc. at the insistence of retired law enforcement officer, author and trainer Dave Spaulding, the CAT is […]
