Reviewing holsters is always fun, and I really love being proven wrong when I see an idea I think is a failure. One such idea I thought was a bit too far was the Comfort Cling Holster from Clinger Holsters. I like the No Print Wonder V2, so I figured I could give them a […]
The Llama MicroMax is a 1911ish pistol scaled down for a different Bronwing cartidge, the .380acp. We first took a look at this compact firearms in an earlier article. Like most guns chambered in .380acp the Micromax is blowback-operated which requires a careful balance of slide weight, spring rate, and calculation of the expected energy […]
Readers of this site who happen to also be fans of the Kel-Tec Sub 2000 may remember a recent article I wrote on the top upgrades available for your Sub 2000. That article focused on upgrading parts that I felt made the gun safer and more reliable – almost out of necessity to fix certain […]
I just ran into a video again from a couple of well known instructors who are great shooters. They that claimed that you shouldn’t practice a slow, deliberate trigger press because you don’t have time for that in a gunfight. It was one of those times when I hung my head and shook it in […]
Due to their lack of protruding hammer, many striker fired pistol designs have flooded the concealed carry market. Manufacturers such as Glock, Smith & Wesson, Springfield Armory all have popular models of striker fired pistols. But, how does striker fire actually work? To propel a bullet from its cartridge, the gun powder within the casing […]
The Walther CCP hit the market hard and with much anticipation from the shooting community. The marketing on the CCP was fantastic, and it drew interest from all over, even from people who were previously uninterested in Walther pistols. The CCP drew eyes with its “Softcoil” system, which is basically their own gas-delayed blowback design. […]
Many of us learned to shoot with rifles and pistols chambered in .22lr. Personally I had nearly forgotten the caliber when ammunition got scarce and I sought bigger booms. Ammunition has returned to shelves and one simple truth remains; .22lr is an excellent training caliber. Walther Arms understand this and offers a 5″ PPQ in […]
The RPG is a rocket-propelled shaped charge antitank weapon that took its philosophical foundation from the German WWII Panzerfaust (although it shares little with that weapon mechanically). Over the course of WWII, the armor on tanks quickly because too heavy for man-portable anti-tank rifles to defeat. The RPG-7 is pretty far from being a forgotten […]
We’ve seen shotguns based on the AK system, and shotguns that look like ARs, but American Tactical has released something revolutionary. The Omni .410 is a shotgun upper that mates to any standard AR lower. This means your favorite furniture and trigger can now be used to sling slugs, birdshot, buckshot, or any of those […]
The earliest surviving firearm in Europe was found in Estonia and dates back to 1396. Hand held firearms were employed by 15th century armies. They were very unreliable and actually less powerful than bows at the time. Their advantage was that to train a soldier to point a gun at a target was far easier […]
