Published: September 11, 2022 { 5 comments }It hasn’t been all that long since we took our initial look at the Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint, the first bolt action for a familiar brand. Why are we back again so soon? Because I stand by my statement it is the best value in bolt actions, so much so that I bought one. And while the Waypoint is absolutely fantastic out of the box, I wanted to push it to its limits with some upgrades.

45 GAP, the Glock 37, & the Caliber That Should Have Been
Published: August 21, 2022 { 23 comments }This week, we are going to take a look at an odd one, and not just for historical reasons. I was able to procure a Glock 37 and 1000 rounds of ammo to feed it recently for $800. That is a used gun off the secondary market, but it was available and not badly priced.

You might not need it, but the 2nd Amendment isn’t about needs. A civilian 4.6x30mm PDW is a win for the world of firearms. I’m a huge fan of having choices, and I see every new choice as a win. Plus, the FourSix proved to be an accurate, controllable, and well-made weapon.
