When it comes to ammunition, there are a huge number of companies in the mix. With that, the quality varies a lot from manufacturer to manufacturer. I decided to head up to Northern New Hampshire and visit David Stark, the owner of Discreet Ballistics.

“That’s a 40?” and “That thing shoots soft” are the most often heard remarks after putting a couple of mags of 40S&W downrange with the just-released MAC (Metro Arms Corp) 3011 SLD (Standard Long Dust cover) Tactical pistol.

Which Gun is Best for Home Defense? Handgun, Shotgun, & AR-15 All Work, but the AR-15 Might Be Your Best Choice

Let’s take a closer look at the most common home defense guns – handguns, shotguns and the AR-15 – and compare them. At least this should help make the choice a little easier and may give you solid reasons for choosing a particular gun, other than that’s the gun someone told you is the best.

Review: Century Arms' USA-Made VSKA AK47

Review: Century Arms’ USA-Made VSKA AK47

{ 40 comments }

We introduced Century Arms’ new, American-made AK at SHOT Show 2019. It’s the 7.62x39mm-shooting VSKA (pronounced vis-kuh, and, even though it’s made in the USA, it sounds better with an Eastern European accent). I’ve had some time with this gun and I’ve put a few rounds through it, and I’ve carried it around a lot. I like it. Let me show you why.

Thureon Defense's 10mm Carbine is NOT An AR15!

Thureon Defense’s 10mm Carbine is NOT An AR15!

{ 40 comments }

It has been an excellent year for us 10mm Cultists, our cartridge of choice has grown by leaps and bounds. New guns, a gaggle of new factory loads, and an upswing in popularity have made 10mm more available than ever. With so many options, I felt compelled to write a post on alchemy write a review of available factory ammo and how it performed in the real world. A test like that requires, obviously, a gaggle of available pistol barrel lengths. But in my opinion, it should also be done from a carbine, as the 10mm gains so much from a rifle length barrel. So I went looking for one. And to the lasting shame of the firearms manufacturing world, I found very slim options.

A $300 Aluminum Suppressor that Can Handle 338 Lapua: The Rebel Silencers SOS-450

A $300 Aluminum Suppressor that Can Handle 338 Lapua: The Rebel Silencers SOS-450

{ 7 comments }

Rebel Silencers is a company that has been around for a decent while, but lately, I heard of them for my first time. When I saw what they had to offer at the price that they were offering it at, I had to get my hands on one of their suppressors and put it to the test. The suppressor that I chose is the SOS-450; a can that they designed specifically with the 450 Bushmaster and 458 Socom in mind. Luckily for me, I just so happen to have a 450 Bushmaster that I wanted to hush.
