The world of hunting rifles tends to be relatively stable. We have single shots, bolt actions, lever guns, and a few semi-autos. Nothing crazy, and most hunters don’t seem to want anything crazy anyway. Well, Savage decided to shake things up with the Impulse. The Savage Impulse is a bolt action rifle but isn’t your traditional rotary bolt. Instead, Savage went with a straight-pull bolt.

The Savage Impulse – An American Straight Pull

BY Clay Martin Published: September 4, 2022 { 43 comments }Have you ever made an impulse purchase that was way out of your wheelhouse, but it looked like such a good deal you had to go for it? Me neither. Okay, that isn’t actually true. But just because I make a serious, serious mistake doesn’t mean I don’t write about it on the internet. So that others may learn. Or have a good laugh. Or maybe both this time.
The Ultimate Nightstand Gun?
BY Clay Martin Published: August 28, 2022 { 21 comments }A nightstand gun is premised on the idea you don’t have children. I do now, so I have to err a bit more on the side of caution. But as a single dude living in some perhaps sketchy areas, I was a huge advocate of the nightstand blaster. And for that particular role, the 1911 packs some clear advantages.
FN’s High Power is Much More Than Just a Remake

45 GAP, the Glock 37, & the Caliber That Should Have Been
BY Clay Martin Published: August 21, 2022 { 23 comments }This week, we are going to take a look at an odd one, and not just for historical reasons. I was able to procure a Glock 37 and 1000 rounds of ammo to feed it recently for $800. That is a used gun off the secondary market, but it was available and not badly priced. Considering how crazy the gun market has been, you could do a lot worse. Why could it be had at that price? Because a Glock 37 is chambered in 45 GAP.
The FourSix From CMMG – A New Banshee
BY Travis Pike Published: August 14, 2022 { 10 comments }Need is a loaded term, and people asking why you need this simply fail to have any imagination. You might not need it, but the 2nd Amendment isn’t about needs. A civilian 4.6x30mm PDW is a win for the world of firearms. I’m a huge fan of having choices, and I see every new choice as a win. Plus, the FourSix proved to be an accurate, controllable, and well-made weapon.

The JP5 From JP Enterprises – A PCC Unlike Any Other
BY Travis Pike Published: August 6, 2022 { 14 comments }The PCC market can be described as crowded. That’s a nice neutral way to say there are just tons and tons of them on the market. Most are 9mm, take Glock magazines, and use a straight blowback-operated system. Pretty simple and also very effective. Yet, JP Enterprises has released something a little different in the form of the JP5. The JP5 is a roller delayed PCC that makes both Stoner and HK proud.
