Survival rifle review: Chiappa’s lightweight and foldable Little Badger
I first came across the Chiappa Little Badger survival rifle in a magazine a few months ago, and distinctly recall thinking to myself, “I’m not sure how useful that would be… but it sure looks cool,” as I kept flipping through the pages. In that brief moment, I told myself that if I came across […]
Alien Gear IWB handgun holster
Alien Gear pistol holsters have benefitted from some excellent marketing on the internet as of late. Thanks to Facebook’s targeted marketing algorithm, Alien Gear ads have inundated my news feed for months, touting the holster as the “world’s most comfortable” inside-the-belt holster. The price points for these holsters run between $29.88 and $43.88, which seemed […]
SB Tactical’s PDW arm brace for AR pistols
AR-15 style pistols have become increasingly popular since the invention of the tactical arm brace/adapter. This device replaces or attaches to the current buffer tube and gives the end-user the ability to attach it to their arm, giving the shooter added support. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) just recently announced that you could […]
SilencerCo Spectre II Suppressor
The .22 LR caliber firearms aren’t very loud to begin with—add a suppressor to that and you’ve got a very quiet shooter that is perfect for plinking or hunting small game. SilencerCo has yet again produced a quality AND affordable suppressor with the Spectre II. With an MSRP of around $400, what’s not to love? The Spectre features stainless […]
Patagonia Atom 8 liter sling: The take-it-everywhere classic sling bag
It’s really a difficult process for me to find an everyday carry pack that I feel fits the bill. An EDC bag first and foremost, in my mind, needs to not look the least bit tactical, it should be robust, discreet, and minimalist in design. Well after some thorough research, I came across Patagonia’s Atom 8L sling pack. A small, […]
Mission First Tactical Battlelink minimalist stock
Mission First Tactical (MFT) has the most photographed rifle stock to appear in gun rags this last year. And it’s easy to see why. The Battlelink Minimalist Stock is easy on the eyes. After spending some quality time at the local pewpewpew spot, I found that it’s not just the eyes it’s easy on. 5.8 ounces. […]
Walther PPX: Police Pistol Xtreme
Let me introduce you to the Walther PPX 9mm. Today we have a market ruled by high-speed pistols that are slim, small, and have a huge capacity to size ratio. Every now and then we get a gun that is overbuilt for the necessary purposes it serves. This is not a crime, but instead is […]
Smith and Wesson Governor: Range Review
Recently, I had the pleasure of taking the Smith and Wesson Governor to the range. My first impression of this big S&W wheelgun is that it is a ton of fun. The Governor is a multiple caliber handgun. It fires .45 ACP (with moon clips), .45 Colt, and .410 gauge shot shells, so I tried out […]
Shots Fired: Spike’s Tactical Roadhouse AR-10: GBguns Video
Not long ago we brought you an up-close look at the Roadhouse AR-10 in .308 from Spike’s Tactical. Ambidextrous controls and no detail overlooked describes this battle tank of a rifle. On a bitter-cold morning with sleet accenting the weather I hit the range for testing. Does the cold impact ammunition performance? Yes. Does the […]
