The VSO Gun Channel’s #50calFriday gets a visit from Negan and his bat Lucille. This was a special Mock-up from Praetorian Ventures Emulating the Walking Dead featuring Negan’s weapon of choice, Lucille, a baseball bat clad in barbed wire as portrayed by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. VSO took a hard swing at this baby with the […]
Few rifles have achieved the legendary status of the Soviet rifle of choice: the Kalashnikov AK-47. Its price, reliability and .30 caliber stopping power have made it a favorite among gunslingers everywhere from Third World dictatorships to high-end gun collections. Its legacy even continues to thrive in the Russian military today, in the form of the […]
Springfield Armory’s SAINT AR-15 series expands to include the all-new SAINT and SAINT EDGE SBR, featuring 11.5” barrels – selected as the best balance between length and ballistic performance of the 5.56 cartridge. The SAINT SBR with a forged lower receiver, and the SAINT EDGE SBR with a lightened billet lower, provide superior accuracy thanks […]
Over the last 50 years almost everyone who has been introduced to shooting has eventually owned a Ruger 10/22. The curse of having the same product line that has largely unchanged over the last 50 years is that the market has been extremely saturated.

With variances in barrels and calibers, came adjustable gas blocks to mitigate excess blowback. Longer rails […]
Like most armies in this part of the world, the Peshmerga’s go-to weapon is the AK-47/AKM. Sure, they have the G36 and a few M16/M4s floating around (usually with officers), but the Kalashnikov is the name of the game. What makes it fascinating is the number of variants and origins that you can find in the […]
Accuracy testing is always a tough one to believe. It seems that everyone gets different results, and that’s with good reason. If you read our earlier piece about accuracy testing you’d know that there are so many variables that it can be very difficult to be fair. Shooter ability aside, wind, ammunition, temperature, target choice, […]
There are many people who dislike bullpup rifles. I not only like them, I find that there are quite a few things they do much better than conventional designs. After running M16 and M4 rifles in combat in the military, I prefer the bullpup. Fighting in tight spaces with one of these rifles was a nightmare, not […]
We all know it IS possible to build a 450hp Honda Civic, but that takes time, money, and knowledge. Sometimes you don’t want to, don’t know how to, or aren’t patient enough to go through all of that. Sometimes you’ve worked hard, saved your money and know what you want. That pinnacle Audi S7 has loads […]
