Anytime I notice a new 1911 on the market, I am interested. But when the new pistol is billed as a “full-size hybrid 1911?” I’m doubly interested!

The Impulse Hog Hunter is a very accurate rifle, capable of taking game out to 400 yards without a problem. The straight-pull bolt operated effectively and actually got me on target faster for that follow-up shot.

Home defense, recreational shooting and just looking cool: the SAR 109T Subgun checks all three boxes.

Last fall, Sitka Gear released a new hunting jacket, the Stratus, in two versions: one in Blaze Orange, the other in Sitka’s Optifade Elevated II camouflage pattern. I have been on some chilly hunts with first-rate results!

For home defense, concealed carry, and recreational shooting, the SAR9 will do the job and then some. It is a fine pistol, very accurate, rugged, and reliable.

After putting over 300 rounds through the Remington 1911 R1 Hunter FDE 10MM pistol, I recommend this semi-automatic as a top firearms investment for at least two reasons.

To me, there’s something special about using a Colt 1873-style revolver. Part of it, of course, is the connection to our Old West history, cowboys and gunfighters, and all those John Wayne movies I watched as a kid. But there’s also a simplicity and a functionality to the 1873 and its single-action operation I find very attractive, as well as how good the revolver feels in hand, the weight, and the fine balance.

Ankle holsters in movies always look kind of cool but is this a feasible way to practice concealed carry?

To test out Trijicon’s VCOG 1-8×28 riflescope and to see how well the controls tracked, I did my version of “shooting the box.” My very short version of the longer story? The Trijicon VCOG 1-8×28 riflescope was and is an amazingly good and functional optic.
