Thermold Magazines has a long row to hoe, but they’re intent on reshaping their image. Their mags are made in the USA, and backed with a lifetime warranty. I’ve recently taken a behind-the-scenes tour of their factory, and we’ll have full reviews up soon.

Sometimes a box is just a box. You put your junk in it and never think twice. Sometimes a box needs to be something more. Plano, the economical end of storage cases, is making a play at that next level of protection, but staying true to their customers’ expectations about pricing. On the high end [...]

There are some of us out here in the real world who scrape up funds for gun purchases. We want guns that work, and we don;t want to pay premiums for brand names. Well, here’s one. The Bersa BP9CC is a kickass way to carry concealed. The price tag isn’t going to knock you over, but the gun’s performance just might.

The Traditions Vortek striker- fired in-line muzzleloader shoots more like a GLOCK than it does your average flintlock, yet the high-tech rifle can still be used during those extra days of hunting season when the center-fire rifles and shotguns are forbidden.

In honor of the 4th of July, Stag is giving away a gift card for $970. How you spend that $970 is up you. You could buy 64 really cool hats from Stag’s web store (one for you and each of your 63 closest friends), of if you meet the basic legal requirements for gun ownership, you could even get one really unique rifle.
