Kimber makes a fine hammerless revolver, but this year they’ve modified their K6s to include a double-action/single-action trigger. It comes with a 3″ or 2″ barrel and a 6-shot cylinder.

Gerber, the legendary knifemaker, has released an innovative take on the popular lightweight utensil sets favored by ounce-conscious backcountry hunters.

One of the most important features of the Precision Rimfire is the “big-gun bolt throw adjustment,” as it allows the shooter to “change from a rimfire 1-1/2” bolt throw to a short-action centerfire 3” bolt throw, reducing the chance of short-stroking your bolt in competition.”

The Honcho Tactical Triple is a short shotgun. The three barrels are 18.5 inches long and the 12ga weighs just 6 pounds. It’s available with either the rounded pirate grip or the standard pistol grip. It’s also got a Picatinny rail under the barrels at the front for all manner of accessories–certainly a light, but maybe a bayonet would be appropriate, too.
