Gun Review

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.

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 striker-fired pistol features an impressive 15+1 ammunition capacity, a 4.6-inch-long barrel, and a sight radius of nearly 7.0 inches.

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.

When I shoot recreationally I’m often selective about what I shoot, and I often find myself pulling out the Aero M16A4. It might not be small, sleek, and sexy, but it’s accurate, reliable, and easy to shoot. I’d take the latter over the prior anytime.

Competing in an already saturated market, Foxtrot Mike Products recently released its spin on what a modern AR platform should be with the FM-15. Featuring a direct impingement side-charging assembly, the FM-15 requires no buffer tube to operate and can be fired while folded. While I tested the complete 16″ rifle chambered in 223 Wylde, the upper will fit all standard AR lowers.

Hey, fair warning, if you are a big-time revolver nut, you might want to skip this week’s review. I have personally fired less than 1000 rounds out of a wheel gun in my life, and quite possibly less than 500. So why am I covering a revolver? Because I bought one to correct that, which is the point of this exercise.
