The Beretta Nano, or the BU9 (Beretta USA 9mm) Nano, is certainly a mysterious and heavily avoided pistol for reasons I don’t understand after owning it. But lets talk about how all of this started. Beretta has been around for about 5 centuries. They have been building quality guns for the military and the civilian enthusiast since its start in […]
One of the easy upgrades for Generation 3 Glocks is to replace the plastic guide rod with something heavier like steel. The heavy guide rod shifts the center of balance forward reducing muzzle rise. This is especially helpful with .40 caliber guns.
The Walther P99 is a German original that is still running strong in the German police forces after 20 years. The pistol came into being in the early 1990s and still holds it’s own against other big manufacturers. The P99, in my opinion, is a supreme example of high quality German production that will last for […]
These two pistols are icons in the gun community. The Beretta 92FS and the Sig Sauer P226 have served reliably around the world with distinction. We have learned several things about them and handguns in general as far as what it takes to make a reliable pistol that anyone can enjoy or use in a […]
After 5000 rounds, my VP9 has championed on and has maintained as a solid and reliable pistol that hasn’t ceased to impress. Though not typically thought of as a duty pistol, the VP9 holds a reputation for being sturdy and hard to beat. From my experience, this pistol can be shot without cleaning, shot until its […]
Reloading .22LR has almost always been shooter fiction. History has proven though that it is possible. Throughout history, there have been kits that make reloading .22LR doable. Some kits worked very well, and others were very basic. Today, there is a company that makes a .22LR reloading kit right here in American. Personally, when I […]
Today, carrying a small pistol everyday has become a very common thing for people throughout the gun community. We see that having a small but effective gun on our hip frees us from the boundaries of having to be selective with our clothing choices and our overall comfort. Even though there has been a growth […]
High-capacity handguns, though now considered by many to be representative of a bizarre obsession with excessive firepower and murderous intentions, were once simply an enterprising aspiration. An engineering hallmark. And, though many of these old designs attempting to achieve higher capacities would be seen today as bizarre, none approach the sheer peculiarity of the Pistola Con […]
Let me introduce you to the Walther PPX 9mm. Today we have a market ruled by high-speed pistols that are slim, small, and have a huge capacity to size ratio. Every now and then we get a gun that is overbuilt for the necessary purposes it serves. This is not a crime, but instead is […]
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 […]
