After running the IWI Tavor (IDF model) for over 5000 rounds, I have found it to be a supreme example of how bullpups should be designed. It may not have the classic look and feel of the AUG, but it does have a battle-proven record with the Israeli military that everyone can respect. The rifle […]

Tame Short Barrel Madness with the Troy Claymore
The gun industry and general gun population tend to work in interesting cycles. A certain platform will become popular and it will spread like wildfire for some time. Everyone remember piston driven ARs? Right now we are deep into two big fads that are somewhat related. The first is pistol caliber carbines and the second […]
Is There a Difference Between .223 and 5.56?
The comparison between .223 and 5.56 isn’t a new one, so there is a lot of discussion to weed through to learn about the two.

The Steyr AUG – The Great Austrian Bullpup
I’ve been reviewing Steyr AUG for months now and it’s taken that long to really give it a fair review. My time with bullpups was limited so traversing to a bullpup really took some time. It’s easy to compare a bullpup like the Steyr Aug to an AR 15 and then get lost in the […]
