GunsAmerica Product Reviews – Rifles

The Henry Repeating Arms Company has listened to customer suggestions and issues and has now addressed a few problem areas on their .45-70 and .30-30 rifles. We’re back on the range with the new guns to update our original review. So what’s new?

Some shooters want an AR-15 they can manipulate, modify, chop, crop and rebuild. FN makes ARs that fit that bill, but this isn’t one of them. The is the FN Military Collector Series M16, and it is about as close as you will get to an M16 without signing up with Uncle Sam.

Looking for a lightweight rifle that still packs a punch? They don’t get much lighter than Kel-Tec’s CMR-30. Great capacity and excellent performance. This compact magnum is as maneuverable as a most full-sized handguns, but with all of the benefits of a rifle’s stability.

A University of North Dakota professor has vowed to call the police on ROTC rifle drills, claiming that the program is a “physical attack” on campus.

With news that American Tactical Imports is bringing in a new 9mm MP40, we thought we’d step back and look at the original. This German submachine gun is more than the weapon of our enemy–it is the building block for much of what we shoot today. Read our live-fire review of the 70 year old icon.

Sometimes I stand back and look at my guns and realize I’m missing something. I realized recently that I didn’t have a serious long range rifle. So I started at the beginning. This is the base rifle I’ve chosen for a long range build. So how well does a stock Remington 700 perform? I must admit it will be hard to improve on this performance.

Barnes Precision has always produced outstanding rifles, you can see them regularly in my videos for GunsAmerica.com. They are pretty much my go-to standard for testing ammunition, and what I use in my training courses. Let’s see what they have new for this year at SHOT.

We spend most of our time covering new guns, but there are some old ones we’d like to see brought back. Here’s one of them. The old M6 Scout is an excellent example of a survival gun. This .410/.22 LR has a rich history, and sells for an astounding price these days.

The dedication and ingenuity of Smith & Wesson’s Performance Center in a rimfire? If you’re looking for a .22LR that can serve as a practice and training tool, or you just want it to operate like the big brother, this is your Huckleberry. The Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22.
