Rifle

We walk the M1 Garand from history to the firing line, breaking down features, ammo picks, accuracy, and the unmistakable ping that made this WWII icon a must shoot.

Barrel options include Franklin’s carbon-ceramic wrapped Fidelis barrel or a fluted stainless sporter profile, with compatibility for Zermatt TL3/SR3 pre-fit barrels for those who like to tinker.

Rather than a cosmetic refresh, Ruger is positioning the Harrier as a clean-sheet redesign focused on fit, function, durability, and aftermarket compatibility. Areas that matter most to today’s MSR buyers.

The BoreBuddy Apogee Match Gen 2 AR22 is a dedicated .22LR AR upper built from the ground up for accuracy and reliability

The rifle is built on the legendary New Original Henry platform, a line-for-line reproduction of the world’s first lever-action rifle patented by Benjamin Tyler Henry in 1860, save for the modifications needed to accommodate the more modern .44-40 WCF cartridge it’s chambered for.

Zero-dollar NFA transfers sound amazing until you hit the real costs. Before you turn that brace AR into an SBR, read the travel rules, trust traps, penalties, and long-term risks that most shooters ignore.

A premium straight-pull that cycles like lightning and prints sub-MOA with multiple loads. If you want one rifle to do it all, the R8 Ultimate makes a strong case.

Near-magnum speed without the shoulder slap, the 280 Ackley Improved keeps shots flat and kills convincingly. On deer, steel, and long ridgelines, it earns every fan.

From featherweight mountain rigs to suppressor-ready workhorses, these 15 rifles deliver real-world accuracy, smart features, and gift-list heat for 2025.
