While end mill technology (and it’s computer-controlled variant) has been around for nearly 250 years, Defense Distributed‘s Ghost Gunner has made waves in the last few years. The titular self-contained CNC mill was at the heart of a legal battle between Defense Distributed and the State Department, with the government eventually settling. A few anti-gun politicians […]

Geissele Single Stage Precision | Breaking the glass rod
In the never-ending pursuit of a more accurate firearm, many enthusiasts spend a great deal of time, effort and money looking to upgrade the status quo. While a better barrel, clearer optic or different ammo are commonly shopped improvements, few parts have as much of an instant impact as a better trigger. Such an example may […]
Magpul ACS-L: High Utility, Low Profile
Magpul has made a name for themselves in rifle accessories. The quality of their ACS-L (Adaptable Carbine Stock – Light) buttstock is up to par with what I’ve come to expect from Magpul.

Pistol braces are an example of that. I love pistol braces and the realm they occupy. Certain large pistols in the AR or AK platform […]

Smoke Wagon by Taylor’s & Co. Brings Back the Old West
Gun-lovers can breathe easily, at least until 2018. The 2016 elections have eased fears that what we want today may be banned tomorrow (Except behind enemy lines in California). We’ve rushed out and bought our AR-15s, normal-capacity magazines, and loaded up on ammo. At least for a little while we can relax and get back […]
