Often the name Ruger is associated with budget guns that are commonly referred to as “lawyer guns” for obvious reasons. The biggest reason is due to them having a slew of passive and active safeties all throughout the gun. Now this isn’t entirely bad, because this just means that this one design is legal in […]

Today’s review comes to you from a Load Out Room reader. Hope you enjoy! – Nick The Heckler & Koch USP .45 Compact By Eric Maudsley m (Former Mil/LE) I’ve been in the military or law enforcement in some capacity for the last 24 years, so I’ve seen plenty of different guns come and go, […]
SIG SAUER has been teasing a civilian version of the U.S. Army’s M17 official service pistol for awhile now. The Army’s M-17 is a P320-based platform, selected for its uniquely innovative modularity, uncompromising performance and unmatched capability.

I wanted to focus today on military pistols, and specifically the Beretta M9. I start here with the Beretta M9 because it is the most commonly used sidearm across the armed services. In the coming future, expect to see others covered here as well, from SIG Sauer to Heckler & Koch, but today, I’m just […]
It’s not secret that I’m a fan of Walther firearms. Ever since I first picked up the P99AS I felt like Walther had somehow taken a mold of my hand. The ergonomics are incredible. Personally, I wish the paddle magazine releases would return, but I understand that Americans like buttons. The PPS M2 is one […]

The Virginia State Police is comprised of three bureaus, with over 2,100 sworn personnel, providing exemplary service to the public, and other law enforcement and criminal […]
Continuing our coverage of pistol-caliber carbines we were alerted to Thureon Defense. The now cliche questions are always, “Does it take Glock mags?”, and “Does it come in 10mm?”. The answer to both is YES. Thureon Defense is a small specialty company based in Germantown, WI. What do they specialize in? TRUE pistol-caliber carbines! These […]
After more than a decade Smith & Wesson has released the 2.0 of their M&P line. While most of the differences suggest a 1.5 or 1.7, the most exciting part of the launch is the new compact model. The sub-compact Shield and full-size models were aimed at the brand’s namesake, Military and Police, but the […]
