Texas-based FoldAR claims their Double FoldAR pistol is the most compact AR-platform gun in the world. At an overall length of just 10 3/4 inches (with a 9-inch barrel) that seems hard to beat. The Double FoldAR lets you easily drop a fully functioning AR and a handful of mags into a small backpack for ultimate […]
Last year, I wrote about growing up with the single-shot rifle, hunting around the world, and the commissioning of The Last Rifle I’ll Ever Need. John Stewart at Kiote Rifles took on the project, and shipped it to me earlier this summer. Since then, I’ve gotten to pull it apart, wipe the drool from it, […]
Gun Review: Ruger Mini 30 Rifle in 7.62x39mm The Ruger Mini 30 rifle is something of a unique creature. I was first introduced to it a number of years ago as an alternative to the AK series of rifles. I’d spent a great deal of time with AK rifles and became used to their performance […]
It’s still very much legal to build your own firearms for personal use at home. Lots of shooters enjoy the process and many also appreciate the fact that their firearm doesn’t appear in any record or database. If an AR-15 is on your build list, the normally serialized part of the rifle — the part […]
CMMG released its BANSHEE series of AR pistols and rifles three months ago, but they’re already expanding the line. Currently it’s offered in .22 LR, 9mm, .45 ACP, and 300 BLK (reviewed here). Now, as of a couple days ago, the BANSHEE is also chambered in the same 5.7x28mm round made popular by the FN Five-seveN […]
Remington Defense, the LEO/Military sales arm of Remington Outdoor, has secured a contract to supply the US Army with commercial off the shelf carbines. The company isn’t disclosing which carbines or how many of them, but you’d have to guess the deal would include their R4 AR pattern rifle or possibly the ACR. Or maybe […]
By Thundervoice The first gun I ever shot was a .22LR rifle. I remember that day well, as my Dad took me to a range when I as about nine and taught me how to shoot a Remington Model 511 that he acquired as a kid. It was a rifle which I still have and […]
By Troy The first Kalashnikov clone I shot was an imported, Chinese MAK-90 which belonged to a friend. I was shocked by the low recoil and by how accurate I was with it. I came down with the “AK fever.” Unfortunately for me, this is not about now I acquired my friend’s MAK-90. The AK-47 […]
Stealth Precision Firearms got its start fairly recently, in 2015. A group of longtime avid shooters and hunters who were also engineers looked around and figured that they could make precision rifles just as good, or better, for less than the competition. That story isn’t a new one, but unfortunately, in the firearms industry, it’s […]
In an interview with Mother Jones, Brady Campaign co-president Avery Gardiner, makes the following claims about the “common use” of AR-pattern rifles in the US: AG: There’s a case in Massachusetts that raises this exact issue. Worman v. Baker was decided in April by Judge William Young. It’s a 47-page opinion that really goes into this […]
By Jay Mundy “Dad, do we have to go?” Samantha, my then 13-year-old daughter asked. “Yes.” In Sam’s defense, I’d gotten her up at 5. On a Saturday at that, to drive to Black Creek range outside of Richmond, Virginia for a Project Appleseed shoot. It was December 3, 2016. The drive started about 6am […]
This is not a review. That’s coming after further use and reliability testing. But Chris and I were so impressed with Ultradyne‘s new flip-up iron sights that I wanted to show them to y’all right away . . . Spoiler alert: the front post is an aperture sight. That’s right, Ultradyne’s C4 Folding Sights are a […]
