Handguns

How would you do it if you were to break down the evolution of handguns and choose the best handguns ever?

The S&W Spec Series VI M&P 9 M2.0 Metal Compact pairs a ported barrel, Aimpoint ACRO P-2, metal frame, and roughly $985 in included accessories with genuinely fast, controllable performance. After several weeks of shooting and carrying it, the $1,899 package makes a stronger case for itself than the sticker price suggests.

After more than 1,300 rounds and 12 months of regular carry, the Kimber CDS9 has become my go-to EDC. It is accurate, distinctive, and flawless for me unsuppressed, although suppressor testing exposed one weakness worth knowing about.

The RXM takes advantage of the Glock Gen 3’s patents expiring.

If you’re looking for a different thrill this fall, take a handgun hunting.

These guns might not be the best option compared to a custom, built-for-you rifle, but they give you a great place to start and make easing into competition easy. 

Recently the Hi-Power has seen quite the revival. Maybe the industry’s hard time coming up with something new spurned it.

We will compare and contrast both the CZ 75 and the CZ P01 and see how each does from a shooting perspective.

Threaded, tritium, optic-ready, and built to work. We shot the SAR9 SOCOM suppressed and unsuppressed to find out if this duty-sized 9mm really punches above its price.
