The Taurus GX4 puts a lot of features into your hand for a price that is nearly unheard of in today’s market. Of what’s included you get stellar ergonomics, an outrageous trigger, and ample magazine capacity. What isn’t included are a pair of good night sights. As deciding exactly what you want in night sights…
One of the easiest ways to lie and not get sued for libel is to simply do so through exclusion. The New York Times is famous for this and if you don’t know enough about guns they can make things sound pretty bad, just by leaving out a little bit of information. In the wake…
In the wake of the Alec Baldwin shooting incident on the set of “Rust,” most gun owners are doing a bit of reflection on their firearms handling practices, both past and present. For those not familiar with the incident, Alec Baldwin fatally shot one crew member and injured another with a gun that he and…
The name Wes Crawford, and his company, are synonymous with high-end knives that are made of the best materials with the features that its target audience wants most. Of course, this lineup comes at a premium and puts them out of reach for a good chunk of the common EDC market. Cold Steel, on the…
N8 Tactical is best known for its clear polymer holsters that feature the company’s Twist Release technology. After reviewing these holsters, I was quite impressed but of course, whenever a new retention system is introduced it is met with some apprehension. Although the Twist Release is nearly instinctual, N8 got to work on a new…
If you follow my work, then you know that I am a strong proponent for pocket carry. While I never suggest that it is the best way to keep a gun on you, or that it is for everybody, you do owe it to yourself to explore it as an option. I like it because…
If you’ve ever fired a North American Arms revolver then you probably came to the same conclusions as me, those little suckers can shoot! In previous testing I found the Ranger II to be astonishingly consistent, but the point of impact needed to be straightened out a bit. Also to further prove that you can…
With the surge of new gun owners out there, it’s important to circulate as much information regarding safety as possible. If you spend enough time around guns you are bound to find yourself in a situation that is not the ideal model of safe gun handling. New shooters don’t know what they’re doing wrong yet,…
Getting a trigger job done on a 1911 has always been an arduous task. In the past, you only had two options at your disposal. The first was to send it out to a gunsmith and have him/her do all of the required polishing and stoning of the engagement surfaces. Of course, afterward, they…
Knives are to men what purses are to ladies. We have dozens of them, they are all nearly functionally identical, yet we keep buying more of them and cannot justify the reasoning. I wish I could explain it better than that, but I can’t. (And in one fell swoop, I just outlined the entire knife…
A defensive shooting situation is anything but predictable. The location, the time, or even the specific threat is going to present itself at complete random. In short, there is very little that you can count on. There is one thing you can take to the bank though…you likely won’t have ear protection on. Now no…
Night sights are almost exclusively associated with handguns. Sure, you’ll likely have a pistol within grasp before you have an opportunity to get to your “truck gun,” but that doesn’t mean you should neglect the shotgun or rifle that you keep in case things get serious. When engaging a target with a long gun it…
