Hop Up Your Glock for $20! Change your Plunger!

Glocks are loved and hated for their tune-ability. Owners are constantly in pursuit of that promised “Perfection”.

Some of those parts can be a bit pricey for the layman but that’s not true about all. One part […]

.30 Carbine for Home Defense ?

.30 Carbine for a home defense round ? I know even typing that sentence might launch the site into a whole new realm of craziness and drama. The .30 Carbine round and specifically the M1 Carbine rifle was tagged with a terrible rumor that it was ineffective and not lethal, there are hundreds of thousands […]

Smoke Wagon by Taylor’s & Co. Brings Back the Old West

Gun-lovers can breathe easily, at least until 2018. The 2016 elections have eased fears that what we want today may be banned tomorrow (Except behind enemy lines in California). We’ve rushed out and bought our AR-15s, normal-capacity magazines, and loaded up on ammo. At least for a little while we can relax and get back […]

Loading up your belt with spare magazines for a training or competition event has always been easy. Doing the same for concealed carry has not.

First Look: Guard Dog Security Bulletproof Smart Backpack ~VIDEO

The idea of bulletproof backpacks is not new, but it is perhaps more relevant now than ever. I’ve been traveling with armor in one form or another for the last couple of years. With events like the bombing in New York, and just random crime why not have a little extra protection? Traditionally making a […]
