The SIG KILO MICRO 4x18mm squeezes 1,000-yard reflective ranging, Archery Mode, ballistic groups and a rechargeable battery into a rangefinder weighing just 3.4 ounces. At SIG NEXT, this tiny optic proved it has considerably more capability than its dimensions suggest.

SIG is taking the CROSS in several new directions for 2026, including a 9-inch .300 Blackout, a compact .223 Wylde and carbon-fiber SAWTOOTH variants built around precision-friendly features.

I always get excited about testing Daniel Defense rifles. They built the upper for the SOPMOD kits we had back in the day (and still do for all I know), and it was a huge leap forward over the old busted M4s we had prior to that. Black Creek, GA, has always turned out tough, high-quality products, and the M4V7 Pro is no exception.

How would you do it if you were to break down the evolution of handguns and choose the best handguns ever?

The Girsan Witness2311 CMX XXX does something a lot of compact double-stack 1911s do not: it actually shrinks the grip. Add 16+1 rounds, excellent accuracy, an $899 MSRP, and more than 400 rounds without a malfunction, and this little 9mm gets difficult to ignore.

I turned a PTR 9KT into the MP5K I spent years building in video games, then dumped thousands of rounds through it in the real world. The final running total hits $5,008.58, and yes, I would absolutely do it again.

Colt brought the Cobra back as a soft-shooting six-shot .38 Special, then followed it with the harder-hitting .357 Magnum King Cobra. We revisit the original Cobra review and break down which stainless Snake Gun makes the most sense in 2026.

These five beginner shooting drills give new shooters a practical way to build speed, accuracy, recoil control, transitions, and confidence without turning a range session into rocket science.

Shot three times and still refusing to quit, Dr. Arthur Martin-Leake became one of only three men ever to earn the Victoria Cross twice. His story makes most definitions of courage seem inadequate.
