H&K MP-5 Sub-Machinegun: Famous but not Friendly
Zenith Firearms is making a new pistol braced MKE Z-5RS which has all the fun of the original without the tax stamp or a felony. The Zenith guns are every bit as fun as the originals and much easier to buy and maintain. The CDI (Chicks Dig It) factor on these guns is off the scale. […]
.380 vs 9mm: Which Is the Better Caliber for Everyday Carry (EDC)?
Who doesn’t love a good debate? The firearms community is full of them. Like the Glock 19 versus the Sig P320, for example. Both of those guns are chambered for 9mm, so it’s an orange-to-orange comparison. Even more to the point today, 9mm has become more or less the default caliber for most handguns and […]
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, […]
Kel-Tec Sub 2000 Optic Mount head-to-head review between MCARBO and Midwest Industries
I had every intention of doing a killer head-to-head video between the Kel-Tec Sub 2000 folding optic mounts offerings from MCARBO and Midwest Industries. Then I realized that MCARBO president, Chris Nelson, already did that. In the video, the guys from MCARBO simultaneously demonstrate deploying their Sub 2000s from a backpack and presenting their rifles […]
Wish I was kidding: Hi-Point set to release their new ‘Yeet Cannon’ later this year
HiPoint’s C9 9mm pistol is already a favorite among drug dealers and that fat guy you know that wears a load bearing vest to the grocery store. When I say that it’s a terrible pistol, I want to assure you that I’m not just jumping on the internet hate bandwagon. I actually bought an old […]
The Roni X Stab Gen 4- From Glock to PDW
The Roni kits have been around for a very long time, and they’ve become quite popular. The Stab variant is the stabilizer model that includes a pistol stabilizing brace. This, of course, prevents you from turning your Glock into an SBR (Short Barreled Rifle). The traditional Roni models are made in Israel and in Israel […]
Upgrading the Glock 19 | Shadow Systems Optics Ready Slide
The Glock 19 is one of the most popular modern pistols on the market. And for good reason. It’s simple design, cost to own, reliability, ease of maintenance and accuracy make it a no-brainer for thousands of owners and agencies alike. Although the pros outweigh the cons, the one thing a Glock isn’t is sexy. […]
Sig Sauer P365 vs. Glock 43 | Size matters
Ever since the announcement of Sig’s new P365 micro compact pistol, I’ve eagerly anticipated its arrival. At SHOT Show, I had the pleasure of handling the pistol at the Sig Sauer booth but missed the opportunity to shoot it on Range Day. Apparently, Sig Sauer has their own range day and doesn’t participate in the […]
