New York’s SAFE Act clamped considerable restrictions on firearms and shooting accessories when it passed on January 15, 2013. In response, some New York based companies have left the state, such as Kahr Arms and American Tactical Imports, for more firearms-friendly locations. Other gun manufacturers have begun releasing “NY compliant” AR-15 style rifles, including Stag Arms, […]
The Daniel Defense carbines got quite a workout at Industry Day at the Range during SHOT Show 2014. I have my own Daniel Defense (my AR-15, “Bruce,” has a DDM4V7 upper), so you can probably guess that I’m fairly fond of DD rifles. What are your thoughts on them?
You’ve seen plenty of AR-15 style rifles, but have you seen this one? I hadn’t. I encountered the A-556 Elite during SHOT Show Industry Day at the range and got the chance to put a few rounds through one. Shooting a new rifle has its own charm, but part of the fun in the experience […]
I’ll be blunt: I’d love to own an IWI Tavor in 5.56x45mm. As a bullpup rifle, it fits my reach and shoulders better than most standard configuration carbines. I also appreciate the IWI Tavor‘s efficient, streamlined design. As a cross dominant shooter, I’m especially keen on how ambidextrous the Tavor is, allowing me the option […]
With a break in the snowy weather, I thought it was the perfect time for a range day, and the perfect opportunity to begin test and eval on a new rifle: the KVD-15 Alef. Kavod Customs sells three different models: the Alef, Bet, and Gimel. Here are some of the specs on the KVD-15 Alef: Kavod […]
Here’s another fun shot from the Pipe Hitters Union event I attended recently. I had a ton of fun shooting, and riding around in the ATVs for the shoot. Too bad I couldn’t have stayed longer! Disclaimer: Although the scenario of this shoot was for fun, I had the fortune of working with highly trained […]
Check out the safe/fire markings for the safety selector on the Reaper Tactical AR-15 lower receiver. Gotta love it. If you have a few minutes to kill, you can see how it shoots in this video. Happy weekend :]
As some of you may know, I had my first taste of cowboy action competition shooting this past weekend. I love my semi autos, but there is something to be said for slingin’ lead through some classic style firearms. Pictured here are two beautiful examples of such hardware. Today’s Photo Friday features a Marlin Model […]
Caracal introduced a pistol caliber carbine this year at SHOT Show 2013. Those who are already owners of a Caracal 9mm pistol can use any of the mags interchangeably with the new carbine – it accepts 10, 15, 18, and 30 round mags. The steel upper has a full rail with peep sights (front sight […]
