A Bolt-Action Remington Rifle & Scope Starting at only $399? Full Review.
BY Jordan Michaels Updated: August 3, 2024A Walther for under $400? The New 9mm Creed—Full Review.
BY Jon Hodoway Updated: November 17, 2016My first view of the Creed was a few months ago at the Walther HQ in Fort Smith. I was impressed while looking at the pre-production sample, and was shocked to hear the suggested retail of $399.00! I even asked if they were concerned by the price/value relationship with their other guns. They assured me that they would be fine. So, I had a chance to test it recently and here is how it did.

Suppressed, Red Dot-Ready Carry Gun? S&W M&P C.O.R.E. 9mm—Full Review.
BY Clay Martin Updated: November 16, 2016I am normally a Glock guy, as anyone that has trained with me over the last seven years knows. But one thing a life in the military will break you of quickly is brand loyalty. You always have to be looking for an advantage, and in a world were equipment failures cost lives, you don’t care at all where that advantage comes from. So when the chance to review the Smith and Wesson M&P C.O.R.E. with threaded barrel came up, I jumped at the chance.

A Sub-$1,000 Seekins AR? The Freedom Munitions .223 Wylde G.I. Rifle
BY Jon Hodoway Updated: November 11, 2016What makes the G.I. rifle so unique is the fact that Seekins Precision rifles are usually not “price point” products. Seekins has a great reputation for quality, and prices their rifles at reasonable ranges for the quality you are receiving. But, these prices often range from above $1,500 (with some around $1,250 at the lowest). So, the sub-$1,000 ballpark price of the G.I. is notable.

Green Beret Blows Up Stuff with a Lightweight .50: The Desert Eagle L6—Full Review.
BY Clay Martin Updated: November 11, 2016So, what are the practical purposes of a Desert Eagle .50 Action Express? Well, the only one I can think of is for hunters/fishermen in Grizzly territory, that don’t like revolvers. Which is a pretty limited segment of the population. I am happy to report that this opinion changed after I took this bad Johnson to the range.
Study Targets Obama “Super Gun Owner” – We Own 50% of the Guns!
BY Paul Helinski Updated: November 10, 2016A recent study from Harvard University identified a new class of gun owner they are labelling the “Super Owner.” Since 2008, the scare of an Obama gun confiscation has brought millions of Americans into gun ownership. Apparently those of us who own more than 10 guns are new to the empty brains at Harvard, because they are attributing this new class of gun owners to the “Super Owner” class, rather than it being a natural percentage of the firearm enthusiast crown, of which it has always been. The key number was 14% of all gun owners, or 7.6mm adults and 3% of the total U.S. population, possessed 50% of all guns owned by civilians in the country.
Rotary Action Autopistols—What Are They, and Why Do You Need One?
BY Tom McHale Updated: November 9, 2016Rotary action pistols are somewhat rare when compared against more traditional tilting barrel designs. With a rotary-action pistol, the results are similar, but the method differs. The barrel and slide still remain locked together for a hot second until pressure drops.
