Magazines remain a “hot button” issue, like most things firearms related, and certain brands gather cults, just like certain firearms do. This is a Golden Age for firearms enthusiasts, whether it be the guns, the magazines, or all of the various ammunition that allow us to ply our trades. This article comes from a question […]
In my humble opinion, no firearm is truly “outdated” if it still goes bang and will allow the shooter to hit what they’re aiming at. The gun is just a tool and you are the weapon — that’s my philosophy about it anyway. If you shoot a particular model of pistol exclusively and do it […]
On the SIG X-Five air pistol packaging it says it, “Shoots like a SIG because it is one.” The remark on the packaging is accurate. The SIG X-Five air pistol is an excellent choice for learning, reducing the expenses of shooting, solving the problem of not having a location to shoot, or just for plain […]

It entered Austrian military and police service by 1982 after it was the top performer in reliability and safety tests. Despite initial resistance from the market to accept a perceived “plastic gun” due to unfounded durability and reliability concerns and […]
There are some trips to the range that I remember very clearly… A decade or so ago, I bought an H&K USPc. I immediately took it to the range, had the sights swapped out, and took it onto the range for a test fire. The darn thing shot low. I took it back to the gunsmith […]
Over the years, the A2 Flash Hider has gotten a bad rap. The Army spent a lot of time and money developing this marvel. It doesn’t look as cool as the new aggressive muzzle brakes, but it does a different job. The flash hider reduces flash so you are not blinded and there are no […]
