Sometimes the most intriguing developments in the gun world go almost unnoticed. Here’s my take on the most interesting developments I saw this year. I’m not talking about popular guns–these are genuine innovations.

I’m on the hunt for a hard-hitting rifle capable of delivering excellent terminal ballistics at extended range. But it also has to be fast and versatile for close quarters work. Is there a gun out there that can do both? We’ve put the FN SCAR 17 to the test and are here with the results.

Looking for AK reliability and performance in something that isn’t an AK? Check out the PTR 32P, an H&K clone with serious potential. This over-sized pistol comes to life with the addition of an arm brace. The PTR 32P would make an ideal truck gun.

The Century PAP M92 might be the most AK you can buy for the money. The over-sized pistol is formidable right out of the box. But with a few modifications, this gun becomes a serious tool for close quarters work. Check out what we’ve done to the M92.

Over and under shotguns have been around for quite some time and have changed relatively little over the decades. Cosmetically, the Benelli 828U looks like a slightly more space age take on the classic double, but the under the hood features are what stand out as the unique elements of this shotgun.

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? Check out the GLOCK 40. This beast is big, capacity is not an issue, and it shoots the 10mm, which–when loaded right–is impressive. So how does the G40 handle?

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…
