How to Build an AR-15: A Beginner’s Guide

You do not always have to go to a gun store to purchase an AR-15. Surprised? I know I was when I first ventured into the hobby of building custom AR-15s. Some of you may not know, but building your own AR-15 is actually quite simple. However, if you do not know anything about the […]

U.S. Army Adopts Hollow Point Ammo With the M-17 and M-18

For decades, the American military has struggled with ways to improve handgun  effectiveness while avoiding the bad press of using hollow point ammo (sometimes called “Dum dum” bullets).  The Army has announced that the M-17 Modular Handgun System (MHS) will shoot hollow points in combat. A recent study by the Federal Bureau of Investigation concluded […]

The New Army Green Round: the Rest of the Story

Get ready.  I’m about to overturn what a lot of knowledgeable “gun people” think they know about the Army’s M855A1 “Green Round”.  There will be gnashing of teeth as angry keyboarding hammers out responses that will most likely ignore the facts I’m about to share. What’s prompted me to cause this upheaval in “common knowledge” […]

Widner’s Guide to Smokeless Powder: Burn Rate and Choosing the Right Powder

What is Burn Rate? While a gun powder explosion in the cartridge seems instantaneous, if you slow it down you will actually find that each powder has a different “burn rate,” or speed at which it ignites. This is similar to how gasoline burns faster than lighter fluid. Gas burns quickly with a rapid explosion […]

Stockpiling Ammo: How Much And How?

Stockpiling ammo for a rainy day is a good idea for anyone that owns firearms. It is often criticized as being a prepper hobby or something you do when you are scared of an impending ban on a certain type of ammunition. We saw this take hold a few years ago with the big gun […]

Barely Legal NFA Hacks – NFA Defiance at its Finest

The National Firearms Act is a burdensome legislation that’s been around since 1934. In the NFA’s infinite wisdom some guns are more equal than others and subject to onerous federal legislation. The NFA is such a hassle of paperwork and fees many gun owners simply choose to live without it in their lives. Others live […]

Is Plinking Dying Out?

“Preppers” love the .22 for its availability, affordability, and the ease with which they can be stored and carried, however others dislike them for their lack of stopping power. Almost every shooter will have fired their first shots from a .22, probably at some dirt bank covered in improvised targets.

SIG 300 Blackout

SIG 300 Blackout Ammunition Review: Quality and Accuracy

SIG’s becoming a behemoth in the firearms industry. Less than 5 years ago SIG was mainly known for their P series of pistols.
