The star of the Daniel Defense popular AR-15 lineup is the DDM4 V9. Fans of the V5 will find a lot to like in the DDM4 V9. Both rifles are chambered for 5.56×45, feature 16in cold hammer forged, chrome moly vanadium steel government profile barrels (tipped with Daniel Defense flash suppressors), and use low profile, […]
One of my favorite firearms is a rifle bequeathed to me by my grandparents that was originally purchased as a hunting rifle by my late great grandfather. I cherish it for the sentimental value it holds, but it’s also a great shooter and always a pleasure to take to the range. The rifle I’m referencing, […]
Windham Weaponry’s .308 AR is ready for large caliber fun right out of the box. If you’re familiar with Windham Weaponry carbine’s, then you’ll know just what to expect with the .308’s fit and finish. It’s a light aluminum build weighing in at about 7.5lbs. The AR-10’s furniture is polymer, including a telescoping buttstock and […]
Shooting this select fire 9mm carbine by Thureon Defense was my first experience shooting full auto. I had a great time pouring through rounds with it. Nowadays, it’s a ludicrous idea to exhaust so much 9mm just for fun, so I’m now more even more grateful to have had the experience when I did. And, […]
Here’s a silly pic to get your weekend started with a smile. This custom rifle was built by Reaper Tactical, and features Reaper Tactical’s own AR-15 lower. I’m just busy being …erm… fierce? Yeah, we’ll pretend I’m fierce. That sounds less embarrassing than it looks… Happy weekend, everyone. :]
Tomorrow, I release the awaited full review on the new Beretta ARX100 rifle. In the meantime, here’s a little snapshot from the review process. I’ve given the Italian battle rifle a real workout. As you can see from the image, I shot the ARX100 til it started smoking… and then fired some more. Stay tuned […]
To my fellow Americans, have an awesome Independence Day. Enjoy safely. I’ll be celebrating the anniversary of the United States’ birth at the range testing out a few new range toys, including the Beretta ARX-100 (review will be up later in the week—stay tuned), the Vortex Spitfire, and more. I can’t wait to share the results! […]
The Italian armed forces are already familiar with the Beretta ARX-100 in the form of its military select fire counterpart, the ARX-160. This 5.56 carbine was originally designed as part of the Soldato Futuro (“Future Soldier”) program, which makes its futuristic look fitting. This ain’t your daddy’s M16. The ARX-100 is a completely ambidextrous system, including […]
My sister, Ruby, rocks her Ruger SR-22. And yes, her .22 LR rifle is sporting a lovely EoTech 512 optic. And yes, I am absolutely jealous of the entire setup. But, she earned it; she’s a crack shot with that Ruger SR-22, already. I might be a touch biased, but I’m an awful proud big sis.
I was looking through some of my firearms photos and realized I hadn’t yet shared this particular shot from firing an AR-15. I love when I can catch the 5.56 casing in midair, after it has been ejected. Nifty, no? The AR-15 featured is the Kavod KVD-15 “Alef,” which I reviewed here. Makes me think, it’s […]
