I’ve seen it a million times over: A person goes to the range with a friend from the office and learns to shoot because this person “has been shooting forever” and “is an expert”.

The Maverick’s unique loading system allows for faster reloading and the mil-spec picatinny rail allows for revoloperators to mount their ACOG for 4x zoom on this innovated...

We are officially a go for the long term test of steel cased ammo, yesterday we completed the deal with TulAmmo to provide .45 ACP for the duration of the test. Right now, we don’t have a name (or a category) for it, which is why we’re taking suggestions from the readers on what...

I just got off the phone with the folks at Lone Wolf to go over the final details of the Limited Gun build. The plan is simple – build a 6 inch Glock 21 that cycles as fast, if not faster than the stock Glock 21 I’m currently using. The slide is going on...
