We have been seeing a trend from firearms manufacturers lately that I like a lot. Several companies that had a really awesome, always patented, unique feature to their guns have started selling… Just that unique piece. This is simply amazing for us consumers, at least those not scared to take a hammer and Dremel tool to our weapons.

The Grendel has been used for a variety of purposes, including long-range competitions, practical competitions, hunting, and for tactical use.

A Hard-core hunter has a shot opportunity at a great public-land bull elk. He’s shooting a 6.5PRC rifle, which some consider too light for elk. Should he take the shot?

The APEX is the right gun at the right time. Each APEX kit includes a 16″ barrel and chassis with 26-inch extendable stock making the APEX a legal rifle in all 50 states.

Recently, I had a rather interesting project come my way from GunsAmerica’s own True Pearce. Mr. Pearce had an original Winchester 1895 rifle, chambered in 30-40 Krag that needed a new stock fitted to it. Fitting a wood stock would seem to be something of an “old school” gunsmithing task in today’s world of synthetic stocks, drop-in parts, and buffer tube-mounted collapsible stocks. But it is surprisingly relevant to the hobby gunsmith of today.

The FCU’s have been flowing for some time now, I know. But I wanted my first build to be something magical, and that has taken time to source parts for. Finally, everything came together this week. I, for one, think it was worth the wait.

The Vudoo was out of my price range and I was impresses by the 457 so I set out to see how far I could go to make the 457 challenge the Vudoo.

Maria Gamez was not the first Mexican beauty queen to get caught up in cartel violence. However, she was the first I could find reference to who was killed in action. Powerful criminals always seem to surround themselves with pretty girls. It has become a trope in movies.

For those who have had the opportunity to shoot somewhere besides a public gun range, you have most likely scrounge around looking for targets minutes before leaving. My homemade steel targets would constantly need to be repaired or replaced and would allow a dangerous amount of spalling to fly in all directions. That is why back in 2018 I started researching steel targets.
