This week, I got my hands on the new Hornady RAPID Safe AR Wall Lock. A pretty ingenious design, the safe basically covers over the important parts of an AR, like the safety, trigger, and chamber, with a cutout area for optics.

Need an AR Suppressor? Black Aces Tactical has you covered with their ‘Po Boy’ AR suppressor. Best part is it’s only $199.

There’s nothing better than the smell of lead at a shooting range on a sunny Saturday morning. But according to a new study published in the April issue of Environmental Health, that smell might be more dangerous than you think.

You will soon be able to replace your AR safety switch with an AK-style safety lever for your AR-pattern rifle.

I have never owned an STI pistol, and until I received the Hex Tactical for this review, I had only shot them a few times, during “hey, try this out” sessions on match days. I was impressed on those occasions and was eager to have this model – a relatively new one from STI, all to myself for testing. Spoiler alert: I wasn’t disappointed!

I decided to return to radiation again this week because of the accident at the Hanford nuclear storage site in Washington state. I know that even with a nuclear war potentially looming over the conflict on the Korean peninsula, most people will absolutely refuse to prepare for a high level radiation event no matter what. So this week we’ll take a look at a low level event. This meter, MyGeiger V3, is roughly $150, and it is a worthy investment to be able to measure what I would call “medium level” radiation.

There has been a good deal of hoopla of late on the Draco AK pistol. Century can’t get enough of them out into the market, mostly because they appeared in some hip hop songs and videos. Needless to say, the rappers involved don’t practice appropriate gun safety, but you can’t take away from these guns that they just look cool. But are they effective weapons? Right now this Century PAP AK pistol and brace combo are available for under $1,000. Compared to an AR in .300BK, I think it beats it.

“He pointed the gun at me and he said, ‘Don’t you say a thing. Don’t you dare move,’” said the M Streets homeowner.

In the interest of a look toward the future, we decided to have a shoot-off of some of the most popular brands of 9mm pistol with a factory red dot mount option. There can be only one! So, let’s get them out on the range and in the hands of some different shooters and see what comes out on top.
