If your father is a gun guy, you know how hard it can be to find gifts for him. You may well also be tired of getting ties and golf tees on Father’s Day, though at least that last one is handy for rimfires.

Snake gun, truck gun, survival gun, anti-bear gun, and zombie killer. That’s a lot of gun in a small package.

Can a rifle that retails for less than $500 makes hits at 1,000 yards?
