The recent election of Donald Trump has already had some pretty significant effects on gun owners. Many gun control measures are in the process of being repealed, and many lawmakers have put forward new measures to extend people’s right to carry arms. One slightly strange consequence of the election, though, has been increased focus on […]
Several weeks ago, I discovered the Talon Tool. This tool was specifically designed for cleaning behind the locking lugs in the barrel extension of an AR-15 or M-16. I suppose it is personal preference, but when I clean or service my firearms, I always try and get them as clean as possible (mostly because I […]
Back when I was a blue-green horn, with a few minutes on the job, a buddy let me shoot his 1911. It wasn’t what I expected. The smooth action, precision and control, were nothing I expected out of that pistol, nor did I know much about it. But I loved it, and told myself that […]
If you ever wondered whether the Howa Miniaction rifle was any good, consider this: 2016 is the second year in a row that the platform has won an Editors’ Choice Award—and that’s a first for On Target. Part of the reason is that in the last year we’ve gotten to shoot a variety of Miniactions, […]
In the not so distant past we brought up the first look of the Sig Sauer Romeo 7 red dot optic. It’s an optic we also featured on our “Best Optic Under $300” article last week, but now its time to take a real first hand look at the Sig Sauer Romeo 7 red dot. […]
Recently, I made a purchase of CLP (cleaner, lubricant, and preservative) to use with my new AR15 build: FrogLube. It appeared to be taking the gun industry by storm, so I looked it up online and found tons of YouTube videos about it. Five hours and a few slices of pizza later, I found myself […]
Not too long ago, my friend Zach asked me about an accessory rail for his new 1911. I dismissively asked him why he’d want to do that. In the interest of full disclosure, the reader should know that the author has a distinct preference for the pure lines of a 1911 without a rail. Ah, but […]
EDC Tactical makes a variety of high end AR 15 lower receivers, rifles, suppressors, and muzzle brakes. Their billeted lower receivers are often customized in interesting or humorous ways. They feature premium grade one of a kind and production rifles. My favorite items are the Diminish 10/22 and Ruger 22/45s. These are integrally suppressed weapons […]
FIME Group’s RPK handguards are the strongest on the market! Proudly made in the USA. These were constructed out of glass reinforced polymer; the same material found on Military RPKs handguards. We use a stainless steel heat shield to reflect heat away from the user hands and to be more corrosion resistant. The ridges are […]
We’ve been troubled by the apparent increase in the number of brazen FFL robberies and burglaries lately, and started tracking them to see if we were just seeing more reporting, or just seeing more spectacular thefts that got more media coverage — or whether these crimes are really up. Well, ATF answered our question with […]
