Guns

Is a mouse gun that fires a .223 round bad ass, or a bad idea? How about one that fires a 7.62×39? Well we’ve been hammering our hands for two weeks now and are here to settle the score. Are the Heizer Pocket ARs and Pocket AKs good ideas, or just a gimmick?

Looking for a 1911 that’s ideal for concealed carry? Want it in a caliber other than .45 ACP? Check out the Springfield Armory EMP. These come in 9mm and .40 S&W, and we’ve been pushing these hard. So how do the redesigned 1911s hold up to the reputation Springfield has established with their 5″ guns?

If you plan on hunting whitetail in the fall and are in the market for a new rifle, read this review. Mossberg’s Patriot line offers tremendous value and excellent performance–and this from a company most associate with shotguns.

One common questions I hear is a lot is “I’m looking for a handgun but I don’t have a lot to spend. Can you recommend a budget revolver?” Consider this first.

There are many advantages to everyday carry, but it isn’t always what’s on your belt–or in your pockets that matters. Think about how connected you are to your vehicle, and the options that provides for even more options.

Benelli is generally my first choice in shotguns. I have used the M2 for 3-Gun for almost five years now. Benelli has been synonymous with reliability among hunters and shooters since they opened the doors in 1967. I am sure it helps that they are now under the same umbrella as Beretta, who has been making firearms since 1526. The SuperNova lived up to the reputation I was expecting in every regard.

The Bullpup Unlimited kit for the Mossberg 500 and Remington 870 isn’t beautiful, but it works. This kit takes a normal pump shotgun and shortens it significantly, without any extra paperwork. Turn the old work horse into a compact fighting gun.

The Webley & Scott Empire Rifle is a solid buy for hunters looking for a gun with a little more class than your average entry-level bolt gun. Sub MOA accuracy and excellent attention to detail make this an attractive package.

Mossberg had a couple of new shotguns to show off at SHOT Show 2016. These were all built on the tried and true 930 platform. One is a new compition gun that bares Jerry Miculek’s name and the other is a winter themed hunting shotgun. Both of these new lines are pretty cool and one of them is down right cold.
