We stopped by the Kimber booth at this years SHOT Show to see what new products they had for 2015. Some of the stand outs to us are the Adirondack rifle in .300 Blackout, Solo Sapphire, Micro Raptor and the Onyx Ultra. Still, it is hard to pick one favorite in the Kimber booth.

9mm AR Pistol – Angstadt Arms UDP-9–SHOT Show 2015

Some pistol caliber carbines seem like someone simply converted a 5.56 AR to 9mm, and forced everything to work. The UDP-9 from Angstadt Arms is an obvious exception. This pistol maintains AR familiarity, but doesn’t take the 9mm for granted. Is this the best in its class?

The Leupold D-EVO is harder to describe than it is to understand. It is an optic that allows you to see magnified targets. It also allows you to see targets at close range, unmagnified. At the same time. It is kind of like a badass bifocal, and it is going to change the way we think about optics.

As our legislators actively work to limit what we can’t responsibly own, we at GunsAmerica are often left holding up the rational end of the conversation. And the latest nonsense concerns body armor. If you don’t own any body armor, now is a good time to buy. We stopped in at the AR500 booth at the SHOT Show and got the skinny on their latest vests and plates.

The AR-15 is hardly a heavyweight rifle. Still, the speed of the .223 allows it to punch above its weight. Still, if you carry one all day, day in and day out, you may complain about the rifle’s weight. And now Battle Arms Development has designed a new rifle that weighs in under 4 pounds. We got to see them at SHOT Show. Read more….

You can't buy happiness, but you can get a good dose shooting a suppressed MCX in full auto.

We at GunsAmerica are devoted to the 300 Blackout. There’s nothing that makes us happier than seeing its popularity grow. And Sig Sauer is doing their part, too. Their new MCX line comes in a number of calibers, and is a great option for those looking for modularity.
