Iraqveteran8888 looks at the Kriss Vector SMG.

Hickok45 looks at a replica of the Winchester 1876. To quote the man, “That’s a big boy.” Indeed.

The POF-5 may look like your run-of-the-mill MP5 knock-off, but it isn’t. These economical imports are versatile contenders. We’ve put 4,000 rounds through these two with only 5 hiccups. Even when they’re filthy, they keep kicking out brass (and steel). They’re pistols, but a simple arm brace makes them even more effective. Check out our review.

The Remington 700 Ultimate Muzzleloader is unlike any front loader I have had my hands on. The bolt-action front loader is as close to a Remington 700 as you can get, which should open more doors for early season hunters who may have doubts about muzzleloaders.

If you move the grip on a pistol closer to the muzzle, you can more easily control muzzle flip. But how do you get the rounds in through the grip, and into the barrel? Boberg has invented a reverse-feed system that does just that. The result is the XR9-S, is like a bullpup pistol. It is blindingly fast and accurate, but the design presents some serious reliability issues. Read on for more.

Some see the M1 Carbine as a antique, a collectable that’s nostalgic at best. They’ve never seen Fulton Armory’s carbines. The Fulton M3 Scout Carbine builds on the M1’s classic design. But don’t mistake this for some historic homage, or a safe queen–Fulton’s M3 is an ideal choice for home defense. And it shoots one clean r.
