Savage has been teasing us with an entry into the 224 Valkyrie arena since January, and today it is finally a reality. Fittingly, and maybe surprisingly, the first Savage in caliber is an MSR or Modern Sporting Rifle.

Let’s take a closer look at the most common home defense guns – handguns, shotguns and the AR-15 – and compare them. At least this should help make the choice a little easier and may give you solid reasons for choosing a particular gun, other than that’s the gun someone told you is the best.

Wanting to take advantage of the 300 Blackout cartridge, in Part 2 I wind up back at Q in Portsmouth, New Hampshire to build a silencer, this time helped by Mitch Lessard…

One fateful day, a European monarchy fell to the unstoppable power of popular revolution. It all started with a pocket pistol and M1907.

We introduced Century Arms’ new, American-made AK at SHOT Show 2019. It’s the 7.62x39mm-shooting VSKA (pronounced vis-kuh, and, even though it’s made in the USA, it sounds better with an Eastern European accent). I’ve had some time with this gun and I’ve put a few rounds through it, and I’ve carried it around a lot. I like it. Let me show you why.

To take a 30,000 foot view of the MiniFix, and subsequently The Fix, it looks by all accounts almost like a bolt action dropped into a chassis.  This couldn’t be farther from the truth.  The rifle (and in this case pistol) was designed and built from the ground up, from scratch.  The approach being to make a lightweight, accurate and ergonomic bolt action.  They decidedly achieved this with the design.

In a previous article, we examined whether you should disclose you are carrying a firearm when a law enforcement officer detains you for a traffic stop.  Generally, the advice was that you should voluntarily disclose you are carrying even if the law does not require you to do so.  A logical follow-up question is: If you voluntarily disclose that you are carrying, have you given permission for the police officer to search you or your car?

Yitzhak Rabin was a politician, statesman, and general who served as the fifth Prime Minister of Israel. He was also assassinated with a Beretta 84F.

The MK1 Bullpup Chassis is made by MK Machining and allows you to shorten any Remington 700 pattern rifle by nearly a foot without cutting precious inches off of the barrel. There are several reasons this can be advantageous which include the ability to add a suppressor without the gun becoming unreasonably long, putting the weight further back toward the shoulder, making the gun easier to shoot unsupported and shortening the gun to be easier to store and carry.
