Just thought I’d leave this here. Story above at The Blaze and story below at Gunpowder Magazine. You might even summarize these “shocking” results thusly: More Guns, Less Crime. Also, Guns Save Life. This is my surprised face:
When occasional TTAG author Conner W. texted me the above screenshot, I was on the phone with the ATF. Yes, they called me at 7:00 PM central on a Saturday night. The reason for the call? To provide a warning and a suggestion. Due to the high potential of civil unrest, including possible looting, the […]
Made entirely of titanium, the lightweight Q jumbo SHRIMP is one of the few 6.5mm-specific suppressors on the market. It’s targeted toward PRS and other precision rifle style shooters plus hunters looking for a compact, lightweight can that will protect their hearing while not getting in the way. I feel like a bit of a […]
With a carbon fiber external tube housing shielded aluminum baffles, the CGS Siren delivers on sound reduction, great looks, and insanely light weight. How light is insanely light? . . . Would you believe a scant 2.2 ounces? Whoa. CGS Group‘s Siren, now available at Silencer Shop, is a .22 LR suppressor that isn’t specifically […]
First there was 10mm Auto. The FBI chose a watered-down loading — a 180 grain bullet at 975 fps instead of more like 1,300 fps — and a large-frame Smith & Wesson pistol through which to shoot it. By the time the contract went through, Tom Campbell, a S&W employee, had realized that the powder […]
ODIN Works, well-known Idaho manufacturer of every manner of AR part and accessory, entered the suppressor market in 2019 with two .30 cal cans and two 5.56 cans. At SHOT Show 2020 they released another pair of suppressors, this time both highly modular designs (first look HERE). The first to hit the market is […]
Two years ago SIG SAUER shook up the concealed carry market with the release of the P365. By shoehorning 10+1 rounds into a pistol the size and weight of every other mainstream company’s 6+1 round offering, they turned heads and changed minds. After carrying mine near daily since completing a straight-from-the-box 1,000 round test, I thought […]
Nobody makes nicer barrels than X-Caliber. We’ve been using them at Black Collar Arms for all of our high-end, custom guns and every single one has been an absolute work of art. Art that shoots lights out accurate, of course. Even better, each barrel is custom-made to order and nearly every aspect of the barrel […]
You’ve heard me say it here before: nobody makes the silencer purchasing process easier than Silencer Shop. And their selection, though already the largest in the industry, continues to grow. Ruger and Silencer Shop are now teaming up to distribute Ruger’s budding suppressor line. Their press release follows . . . Ruger and Silencer Shop […]
Before building your own NFA item, you file an ATF Form 1. It involves the same $200 tax and registration process as the Form 4 that’s filed when purchasing an NFA item from a dealer, but the approval times are significantly faster. In fact, for quite a while now eFiled Form 1s have been consistently […]
Range toys. Firearms that are oodles of fun to shoot, to force your friends to shoot, or just to show off, but aren’t particularly practical. Maybe you rent ’em at the shooting range. Maybe you buy ’em. Maybe you borrow you just try your buddy’s gun. Whichever way you get ’em, you’ll certainly have fun […]
Two years ago Brownells launched the first of their Retro Rifles line, a series of ARs that are faithful copies of old school Eugene Stoner designs. While not technically part of the Retro Rifles collection due to some modern deviations from the originals, Brownells new BRN-180 upper and lower receivers pay homage to a […]
