What’s wrong with the Remington 870? The list isn’t very long. Yet there are ways that the classic pump shotgun can be improved.

What goes in looks pretty familiar to just about everyone, but the shotgun that comes out the other end is nothing short of perfect.

Looking for an ideal way to blow through a brick of .22 LR? Now that they’re actually brick of rimfire rounds sitting around on store shelves, you might as well. And the Mossberg Blaze-47 is a great way to do it. This rimfire has the nostalgia of the old AK, but and is almost as cheap to run as a 7.62×39.

When sanctions shut down the import of many AK-47s, many of us began to get a bit twitchy.

The Single Stack 9mm Perfected--Nighthawk T4

The Single Stack 9mm Perfected–Nighthawk T4

{ 27 comments }

Those discerning single action aficionados amongst us already know the Nighthawk name. Their 1911s aren’t dressed up in elaborate finishes. They don’t have exotic grips. These are hard working guns meant to be carried, and shot. I recently had the chance to put the 9mm T4 through its paces, and the compact carry gun has changed the way I think about single actions. I’m a skeptic, but I’d carry this gun–no question about it.
