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 […]
Earlier this month, I was once again hunting wild pigs at night with a suppressed AR-15 chambered in .458 SOCOM. I was heading into some thick brush, following what sounded like a couple of large boars fighting, when I stopped dead in my tracks. The full moon was overhead. Idiot! I was armed with nothing […]

The harrowing events of the siege on Los Angeles’s Nakatomi Plaza took place 31 years ago. That tragic incident and the heroic response by one off-duty police officer were recounted in a now beloved documentary that recounts what is widely considered to be a Christmas miracle. We can all be thankful, however, that those […]
Not that long ago, I was driving my family home when I noticed a flash of orange from the ditch on opposite side of Highway 282 just a few miles from our home. I knew immediately what that flash meant, so I whipped into the first turn-around spot I reached, and headed back to where […]
You may know the Bug-A-Salt saline-slinging gun as a fun alternative to traditional fly swatters. Who’d want to swing a rudimentary badminton racket at flying pests when you can pull a trigger and blast them out of mid-air? Tom in Oregon reviewed the Bug-A-Salt 2.0 and pronounced it “handy” and a good way to get […]
Over the last couple years I have featured a couple of AR builds here on TTAG and elsewhere that had Russian Bakelite colored stocks and mags. Some people really loved the look of them and I have subsequently found my images “borrowed” and used on social media by shameless charlatans. Over that time I was […]
Have you ever wondered why we don’t use gunpowder to run the internal combustion engine? Neither did we. But the gearheads at Jalopnik apparently have a lot of time on their hands. If gunpowder can get a bullet moving with great speed very quickly, why not a car? Well, it turns out you’d need a lot of […]
This one is from last year, but it still rocks. This is how you say “Merry Christmas.”
Can you relate?
BenShot, the Wisconsin-based company famous for making glassware embedded with real bullets, is going above and beyond this holiday season to make sure each one of its employees has both the means and requisite safety training to own a firearm. The staff, which includes several military veterans, is obviously pro-2A. However, after co-owner Ben Wolfgram found […]
