Do you carry a man-purse? Or an actual purse? Do you have a gun tucked away in some sort of off-body carry bag? You should read this. We were asked to test the concept, and it didn’t go as well as we thought it would.

When we first saw the DP-12 at SHOT Show, we were leery. Bullpup shotguns always seem to get our hopes up, then dash them to pieces with faltering reliability. They’re rarely anything more than range toys. But we’ve been beating up the DP-12 now for a few weeks, and we’re converts. Read our review.

I have a question. Do you carry a knife? Is there a knife in your pocket? On your belt? In your truck? In your purse? In your hunting kit, in your bug-out-bag? On your chest rig? Knives are like guns, and some of us can’t get enough. But if you could only carry one, how big would it be? Which one would it be?

Tired of all of the kerfuffle about the diminutive GLOCK 43? Had your fill of all of the hype about single-stack stopping power? Want a polymer pistol capable of stopping a Grizzly?

AK platform shotguns have a solid reputation. They are what you make of them. But how hard are they to find now that sanctions have shut down the import of some of the guns? Here’s five options that are still available, despite the efforts of the Obama administration.

HK has built a reputation for kick-ass guns. Most begin as service weapons for law enforcement or military units. The MP5 is a perfect example. We’re taking a loot a full-auto MP5 today and will dive deep into the history of the compact design and its variants.

There’s something timeless about the revolver, as proven by the popularity of the snub-nosed Smiths. This 642 is ideal for pocket carry, and is incredibly accurate. Could it be that the best option for concealed carry is a wheel-gun and not a shrunken 9mm?
