Admittedly I’m a bit of a beginner when it comes to body armor. In the Marines I never gave it much thought, I had it, and I wore it and I complained about it. As I became a civilian my need for body armor lessened, but did not entirely disappear. I’ve kept a couple sets of […]

The Steyr M9 has been around for years, but has gone unnoticed for the most part. They are only recently getting serious recognition in this country. I heard about them not too long ago and was interested to know more about the Steyr brand of pistols. Surely it couldn’t have been anything special since I […]

The ATI Firepower Extreme M1911 is a robust classic gun attached to a incredibly reasonable price tag. In my short time using the firearms at the range, I have been extremely impressed by its performance minus a few small hiccups. One malfunction was due entirely to a faulty magazine and the second was a bad round. […]

Weight. 3.2 Ounces : That’s incredibly light and due in large part to the lack of a sleeve and a ridiculous lack of […]

First off let’s real quick cover the intent of the go-bag. The go-bag is meant to sustain you in the interim until you can either make it home, make it to your bug out location or evacuate to a secondary location due to a natural disaster. The contents of your go-bag will vary depending on […]

Today we accessorize long guns with lights, lasers, variable magnification optics and slings. While some of these things may be unnecessary, I feel like the sling is the most important. With all the things that it helps a shooter to accomplish, you can’t go without a sling.  When in serious use in a fight, you […]

How much do you know about Smith and Wesson wheelguns? You may already know that Smith & Wesson labels the frame sizes of their revolvers. The smallest frame size available today is the J-frame like the Chief’s Special. But what you may not know is that there was once another, smaller handgun on the S&W.  This […]

Noveske’s Diplomat started an interesting trend in muzzle devices. A device called the Flash Can came to be.
