Gun Reviews

The jump from revolvers to Wonder Nines was certainly a broad one, and we aren’t going back to revolvers or even single stacks anytime soon. 

The Browning X-Bolt 2 Speed Carbon Fiber aims to pair hunting-ready ergonomics with precision bolt-gun accuracy.

Few shotguns turn heads quite like the Charles Daly Triple Crown. With three barrels stacked in a triangular pattern, it’s a design that immediately invites curiosity, and once you pick it up, appreciation.

The Savage 99 is one of the earliest lever-action rifles that would allow the use of pointed bullets safely. It evolved from the Savage 1895, both of which were quite popular in the American West and Canada.

If you want a compact 9mm that shoots flatter than most pistols out of the box, try the Archon Type B Gen 2.

Henry’s engineers put in the time to create what may be one of the most advanced lever-action designs to come to the market. 

Can the 6.5 Creedmoor ever be dethroned? Amazing ballistics, minimal recoil, a large variety of bullet types and weights, tons of brass… What more can you ask for?

As a fan of polymer pistols, I’m pleased to report the Canik Mete MC9 Prime not only meets but exceeds its price point (and then some).

There are plenty of .22 revolvers on the market, but the Colt King Cobra 22 strikes a good balance between compactness and accuracy.

With revolvers, we get simplicity, an easy manual of arms, power, and advantages in close-quarters fighting.

The Springfield Armory Model 2020 Heatseeker blends precision bolt-action performance with the modular adaptability of AR-style components.

ROAM is an aerospace manufacturer first, and they brought that experience into the firearms world. Magnesium alloys are already used in demanding applications on U.S.

The ultimate .22LR bolt-action competition rifle started with a lot of research, and ended up with a no-budget build. After target shooting and competing with this rifle at a PRS22-style match, I can confidently say this build performs as good as it looks.

As a young man, I hunted quite a bit, and in the tight quarters of the Southeastern United States, a rifle was never really needed.

The Witness2311 Match X served me well and was reliable. I even outshot people with their full-custom builds in USPSA matches.

Springfield Armory has given the SAINT Victor lineup a major refresh, expanding the line to cover everything from AR-15 pistols to full-length AR-10 rifles.

I continue discussing “old school cool” guns and their modern-day worth.

The CZ Shadow 2 Carry brings the heart of a match gun to an EDC-sized package. It keeps the ergonomics and shootability that made the Shadow line a favorite, then trims the footprint to Glock-19 territory and adds a drop-safe, decocker-equipped SA/DA system that makes sense for concealment.

The Range Panda charging handle is one of the best accessories that you can add to a FLUX Legion PDW

What about revolvers? They haven’t been subject to the same red dot revolution, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t red dot ready revolvers.

Elmer was born in 1899 in Missouri and passed away at the age of 84 in 1984. In those decades, he did everything an outdoor enthusiast does, including ranching, guiding, tracking, hunting, and cartridge development. Above all, I’d describe him as a gun writer and hardcore handgunner.

The Rossi Princess is a curiosity these days, but I’d love to see someone take advantage of the small size of the .22LR in a revolver.

The Echelon 4.0C Comp is a compensated, polymer-frame, striker-fired 9mm pistol. This model is a compact-sized handgun, and its standout feature is the ported slide and barrel that it sports.

The older I get, the more I find myself drawn to those firearms that hearken back to that age. The brand new, classically-styled Golden Boy Revolver from Henry Repeating Arms recently caught my eye, and I knew I had to get my hands on one.

These handguns aren’t just “lefty-friendly”; they’re designed to let you run the gun efficiently, confidently, and without compromise.

A BBQ gun is a handgun that you show off. It’s the type of pistol that ranges in looks from ostentatious to damn gorgeous, reflecting the owner’s sense of taste and personality. It can be engraved, wear a luxurious finish, and have a grip made from exotic material.

Carbon fiber barrels have revolutionized the long-range rifle platform in the past few years.

Today, we’re going to discuss the best guns for shooters with small hands, as well as what you should consider when purchasing a firearm.
