Is the Ruger 10/22 only considered a good rifle because it is popular, or is it only considered popular because it’s a good rifle? The answer is muddied water that flows both ways.

Holsters are a personal choice that really fall more into the category of clothing than just simple equipment. The same way my body type can’t comfortably fit skinny…
Early in the year I got hints that Springfield Armory was going to have a great year with a ton of new products. Those hints were not exaggerated. I’ve got my FFL on speed-dial and my wallet wide open. In this episode of “What Did Springfield Armory Release This Time?” we have a little brother…
If the .22WMR is the classic Mighty Mouse magnum, the S&W M&P .22 Magnum pistol is the mousetrap that puts it in its place. As a full-sized pistol with a human-sized grip that weighs about the same as an empty Glock 19, the Smith makes the next closest competitor in its class, the Keltec PMR30,…

It’s the end of the world as we know it … and I’m eatin’ fine! Because of the sensational TV shows the word “prepper” has taken on a negative connotation in segments of the general population. That’s amazing because in the 23 years of my adult life there have been multiple examples of rationing, production…
I love the sweet heavy metal sound of shooting steel targets. There is no lying about a hit or miss—the target will let you know. If you are a long-distance shooter, steel gongs are great in that you can get both visual and audible feedback when the target moves. They save time and effort. I…
The sexy part of preparing your EDC is shopping for the guns … but as modern Americans, we have to admit that there’s a portion of our everyday loadout that gets neglected: our cars.
