The opinion of the editorial team here at GunsAmerica is unanimous: the new H&K guns are rock stars. The VP9 set itself apart as a compact design that offered full-sized control. And now, for those who want more intense ballistic performance, there is a .40 S&W model. How does the compact design handle the increased energy? Read our review…

The gun world is dominated by men. But we’d all be remiss if we didn’t consider the needs and interests of the other half of the world’s population. Well here’s one woman’s take on everyday carry, and she doesn’t shy away from the pink…

Sometimes you need a good sling. If you lean toward the two point variety, I’d highly recommend the Vero Vellini tactical sling. It is one of the most supportive and secure slings I’ve used, and it adjusts silently for perfect positioning in every position.

What’s wrong with the Remington 870? The list isn’t very long. Yet there are ways that the classic pump shotgun can be improved.

This old Smith Model 30 is made on the J frame and is marked 30-1 on the crane. It dates from about 1970 and shows a bit of wear here and there from its 45 year or so life.

I’ve had lots of conversations with gun-geeks about barrels and lowers. We can talk triggers until we’re blue in the face. But I’ve yet to anyone truly debate the AR upper.
