For the cave dwellers among you, the P365 — SIG calls it “America’s most popular handgun” — is a sub-compact 9mm pistol that boasts excellent accuracy and a staggering […]
I have spent more than half my life in the Civilian Marksmanship Program shooting sports. When I began my CMP career, I was told by a wise old man at my local club that the sling on a rifle is just as important as the rifle itself. As a young man I casually ignored that […]
Like many others, I was surprised when I was informed that SIG SAUER was releasing a match-grade .30-06 cartridge suitable for the CMP shooting sports.

Today I will elaborate on why it is that Magpul needs to make a frame system for SIG SAUER’s […]
Do you have a gun that’s a little worse for wear? How about a gun you inherited that, truth be told, is really just a hunk of junk? Have you ever perused the racks of cheap, worn-out police trade-ins at your local shop and wondered if you could fix one up? Well, the answer to […]

Today we are going to be looking at the differences between single-stage triggers and two-stage triggers and just what each offers to you. […]
Get your vodka and Adidas track suit ready, comrade, because we’ll be talking about the best ammo for the AK-47. Today we’re going to be looking at, among other things, the state of the 7.62x39mm in 2019 as well as other ammo for the AK series rifles including the 5.45x39mm, 9x39mm, and the 7.62x54R. The […]
The Oehler Research booth at the NRA 2019 show was small and somewhat unassuming. I have to say that I was a bit disappointed that I did not see more of what I consider new and innovative products at this year’s NRA convention like I did at SHOT Show back in January, but that was […]
