LWRC’s New .45 ACP Sub Gun–SHOT Show 2015

{ 60 comments }

LWRC was showing off three new guns this week at SHOT. Two were what we expect from LWRC, a company that makes some of the best AR-15s available. One, though, was a complete surprise, and it is by far my favorite gun from the the show so far. Check out this compact .45 ACP sub gun. It will change the way you think about LWRC.

Sig Sauer’s Single Action Sensation: The P226 Elite SAO

{ 28 comments }

The Sig P226 Elite SAO has classic Sig internals – not the hinged recoil action and barrel bushing we’re accustomed to seeing in a 1911. Yet it offers the benefits of a constant, light trigger to aid in accurate shooting. Unlike the 1911, it offers a double stack magazine so you get 15 rounds of ammo, plus an extra in the chamber. Oh yeah, and it’s chambered in 9mm.

We’re opening up an in-depth series on safes with a look at a convenient method of fast-access handgun storage. The Winchester eVault Micro 3.0 is a deceptively simple biometric safe.

Don’t stand beside someone shooting an AR. It is loud. Even with ear protection. And if you’re the one shooting, watch where you put that support hand. Don’t reach too far forward. Or, better yet, pick up a Kineti-Tech muzzle brake and sound redirecting sleeve. This combo solves both problems. And it is an easy DIY.

Prepping 101: Are We Being Played?

I make a habit of checking assumptions when I believe something that a lot of other people believe. When I am online these days, all of the ad tracking systems have me pegged as a “prepper,” and I get ads for everything from freeze dried food to gold bullion. I have become a commodity, and it has made me feel like perhaps I should do a little research into just how imminent this global collapse is likely to be.
