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.

Factory to Table Part – 1: The MiniFix Pistol by Q
BY Ivan Loomis Published: May 19, 2019 { 0 comments }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.

Generally, the advice was that you should voluntarily disclose you are carrying even if the law does not require you to do so.

MK Machining’s Original MK1 Bullpup Chassis Reviewed & New MK2 Chassis Revealed
BY Riley Baxter Published: May 18, 2019 { 6 comments }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.

Mossberg’s New MC1 SC – Elmer Fudd Gets His CCW
BY Justin Opinion Published: May 11, 2019 { 42 comments }Mention the name Mossberg to anyone at the range, and they will almost certainly have a mental image of a shotgun. Depending upon the individual, that image might be a long shotgun for hunting waterfowl or it might be the more tactical Model 500, but you can bet that mental image is not of a tiny polymer-framed 9mm handgun.
