Gun Reviews

These are custom guns with the shortest lead times I have seen in the industry. Based on the 1911 design, the Platypus is designed to use Glock 17 mags.

In recent months I’ve dived headfirst into pocket pistols and have attempted to find what works best from small guns.

For myself, the very word “Marlin” has always meant a lever action chambered in that workhouse caliber, the .30-30 Winchester.

I really enjoyed shooting this pistol and I can’t wait for my 22suppressor to come in so I can complete the build.

Everything the American market demands, with the legendary reliability of H&K? Yes please, I’ll take it for a spin. And I’m very glad I did.

When I first started testing out this shotgun, the number 1 question I was asked was how the Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol differs from the classic Beretta 1301.

One feature I really appreciate about this rifle is the reduced movement it takes to operate this gun.

The Savage 1911 is built on the traditional ‘government model’ platform, but with many upgrades and improvements.

I came across the Mossberg Maverick 88 Security and it seemed like the perfect way to have some fun without breaking the bank.

The M&P9 M2.0 has a lot going right, even straight from the factory. Not only is this pistol optic ready, but comes with seven different mounting plates.

Finding a pistol that is easily concealed on a small frame has historically required compromising on at least one component. Then Sig Sauer came along with the P365.

American Gun Craft’s Desperado hand cannon looks like a double barrel 12 gauge shotgun but it is not a firearm under federal law. There is no gimmick here, Desperado is a hybrid black powder and percussion device you load from the front with black powder and shot then shoot it with a 209 shotgun primer.

It’s 1991, you are searching for a new rifle and you see the Timber Wolf carbine. It’s the coolest rifle you never heard of.

One of the few complaints a man can make about a 1911 is capacity, and the 2011 has fixed that.

PTR Industries is an American company that is all about classic design and modern production techniques. PTR produces every machined part for rifles in its Aynor, South Carolina plant.

At SHOT Show 2023, Retay had the Gordion model featured in the new very popular Realtree Max 7 camo finish.

Sig’s slogan for the P365-380 is “less recoil, more control” and after burning a few hundred rounds I can say it does exactly that.

It all started because of Forgotten Weapons. As a shotgun aficionado, I thought the idea of the Axor Arms folding pump action.

It seems the armed community is rediscovering the advantages of the small revolver over the pocket auto!

Umarex has had great success with the Hammer Model .50 caliber air rifle, but it was a bit cumbersome for some applications. So obviously it made sense to develop a carbine version. This makes the rifle easier to hold up while shooting offhand, easier to maneuver while hunting, and a lot handier in confined spaces [...]

SIG Sauer’s MCX Spear will soon be available for the general public to purchase.

M1811 Module design borrows characteristics from the legendary 1911 grip and seamlessly blends them to the grip of the P320. To my hand it is definitely an improvement to the curvy factory grip.

The original Pythons were true works of art and in 2022, Colt fans excitedly witnessed the revival of an old favorite.

If you want to hunt big game with an AR, the SFAR may be the answer to your prayers.

While aesthetically pleasing, the S&W M&P9 M2.0 Metal remains ergonomic, functional, and has great compatibility right off the bat.

I had a great time with this rifle, and I have no problem recommending it if you are in the market for a PCC.

The Freedom Arms line carries guns on a similar level as custom guns.

This gun is not cheap, but if you’re looking for a high-quality factory rifle that comes close to being a custom-built gun, the Model 21 may fit the bill.
