10mm

The Kriss Vector – Too Little Too Late for This Space Age SMG?

Most weapons slowly advance and improve over time. We didn’t get assault rifles overnight, after all. One genre of gun that defies this general rule of thumb is the submachine gun (SMG). The SMG advances in giant leaps, or not at all. Maybe because it’s a niche category, or because pistol-caliber weapons are limited. Regardless, […]

The Ideal cartridge for personal defense? It May Be The .40 S&W

The Ideal Cartridge for Personal Defense? It May Be The .40 S&W

The .40 S&W has been called “the Ideal cartridge for personal defense”. Does it live up to that title? There have been a lot of folks through the years who thought so and new ammo lines like the SIG V-Crown have pushed the .40’s performance to new levels. Specifically developed to duplicate performance of the […]

Rock Island Armory’s Comfy Cannon, the 6 inch 10mm 1911!

Rock Island Armory’s Comfy Cannon, the 6 inch 10mm 1911!

Rock Island Armory has tamed the 10mm with a 6″-barreled 1911 known as the Pro Match Ultra. Anyone of those words independently hints at above average, putting them all together almost sounds a bit too far. Fortunately, with Rock Island, it isn’t and this gun delivers with features once considered custom right out of the […]

Hyve Industries Mag Release

Hyve Industries Mag Release

*Republished with permission from Hooks & Ammo For the crowd that would rather watch a video than read here is the video review. My only issue so far with the Glock 22 is the mag release. The stock may release sits too tight to the grip for my preference. On the 22 it’s so close to […]

Sol Invictus Pistol Caliber Carbines

Sol Invictus Pistol Caliber Carbines

The good thing about being a writer is I get to be picky about what I publish and cover. My typical rule for things like SHOT Show is Marine owned companies first, then veteran-owned, and then Florida based companies. As a Floridian myself, I tend to identify with companies that bring business to my state. Sol […]

First Look: Thureon Defense 9mm PCC

Thureon Defense 9mm PCC

Continuing our coverage of pistol-caliber carbines we were alerted to Thureon Defense.  The now cliche questions are always, “Does it take Glock mags?”, and “Does it come in 10mm?”.  The answer to both is YES. Thureon Defense is a small specialty company based in Germantown, WI.  What do they specialize in?  TRUE pistol-caliber carbines!  These […]

Custom 1911 Grips from AlumaGrips

AlumaGrips has been my recent source for great great grips.  Earlier we showed you a basic set of 1911 grips in this article.  When AlumaGrips added options for America’s rifle, the AR-15 I grabbed a set for my Freedom Ordnance FX-9 Pistol as seen here.  What I hadn’t yet experienced was their custom-order process.  A […]

TFB REVIEW: KRISS Vector in 10mm!

TFB REVIEW: KRISS Vector in 10mm!

(Article originally published on The Firearm Blog) It’s hard to believe that more than a decade has past since the development and release of the original KRISS Vector. By now, if you haven’t shot a KRISS, know someone who owns one or at least handled one in a gun store, it’s safe to say you’ve been […]
