Have you ever wanted a close quarters battle rifle that could could easily be concealed in a small case? One that assembles in seconds? The DRD Tactical M762 is a hard hitting rifle with a hard hitting price tag–but what you get for the money make just make this perfect concealable rifle.

Within the wide wide world of 1911s, Para has a reputation for excellent performance and affordable pricing. These aren’t prissy single-actions, either. Yet Remington has announced that they’re taking the Para pistols in house, and mothballing the Para name. How will this change the Paras we know and love? Read our review of the Black-Ops.

The GLOCK 43 is a reality. A single stack 9mm that proves the rumors to be true. And GunsAmerica has an inside look at the gun. So how does it stack up to the other GLOCKs? Read on to find out more.

Now that the harsh weather is behind us, concealed carry becomes more complex. I’ve got to put away the full-sized pistols and break out the anemic single-stacks. Though I hate sacrificing the extra rounds, I refuse to sacrifce on design. Here are my top five choices for lightweight single-stack 9mms.

The MVP Patrol is a 7 ½ pound rifle. As the name implies, it is short, light and handy enough to tote around in a car or pack. The 16 ¼ inch barrel is capped by a standard birdcage flash hider, which means that threading for suppressor attachment is already there. The composite stock is thick and sturdy.

The final design of the 1911 really came about from a series of trials that the US Government put it and other pistols through. These tests let Colt and John Browning see how the pistol held up. There were also requirements that the design had to meet. A lot of the credit for how the 1911 came out can be attributed to the trials and specifications required for the new pistol.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives announced on Tuesday that it will be suspending its campaign to “reclassify” — or as the gun community calls it, “ban” — M855 rounds, also known as “green tip” ammo.

Most of us think of the Mosin-Nagant as a cheap gun. The rifles are still relatively cheap. The ammo is, again, “cheap” relative to other calibers. And it is a rare day that you go to the range and someone is not there shooting a Mosin just for fun. What many people never realize is that in the world of firearms, it is rare that a gun both **never breaks** and is cheap. But when it comes to using the Mosin outside of the range, for real world applications, there are four problems with the Mosin.
