Don’t tell my kids, but I toured Europe on a BMW K100RT motorcycle. The “flying brick” was utterly reliably and Germanically comfortable (tough yet firm). When I returned to base, I looked for something suitable for intra-automobile London commuting AND long-distance tours. I bought a series of motorcycles, from extreme sports machines to urban two-strokes. […]
Reader Alan Smithee writes . . . I keep hearing the word “compromise” used by politicians and anti-gun activists seeking to further restrict citizens’ access to firearms. Or even by those who want to take away guns, from law-abiding gun owners. “Compromise” is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as “an agreement or settlement of a dispute […]
I have not encountered a more thrilling rendition of living, working and hunting in Africa than is found in J.H. Patterson’s The Man-Eaters of Tsavo. It is one of my most cherished books. It is also a book with an incredibly misleading title. Don’t misunderstand me. Patterson gives a marvelous description of his dealings with […]
News flash: the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing, otherwise known as NASCAR, has a significant blue-collar following across America. Everyday Americans love their stock car racing almost as much as baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and their Bibles. NASCAR, however, in their own words, has made a “gradual shift” over the years and […]
When the tides turn, you need a gun you can trust. The Henry Repeating Arms U.S. Survival AR-7 is the packable .22 we’d choose. Take any ideas of a big, heavy-caliber rifle serving as your disaster survival gun and throw them out the window. Smart and prepared gun owners know a smaller, transportable gun in […]
I have a love-hate relationship with Armslist. I love the idea, but I hate the scammers, the guys trying to trade tattoos for guns, and the fellas who can’t seem to ever meet at the time and place agreed upon. Occasionally, though, you find a deal or an oddity you can’t say no to and […]
When Ruger introduced its takedown version of the 10/22 back in 2012, the world (or at least the gun-centric parts of the internet) went wild. Prior to that, by far the best-known example of a takedown, semi-automatic .22LR rifle was the AR-7 (currently produced by Henry, though it’s been made by a number of manufacturers […]
I’m always on the lookout for a sub-compact 9mm that I like. I like the Naroh N1. I’m a big fan of little guns. It’s a miracle of the modern age of how much potential power and utility such a small object can have, and I’m a bit in awe of them. You aren’t under-gunned […]
By Robert B. Young, MD David Harsanyi published this book last fall. No reviewer could better describe it than its own subtitle: A Ride Through America’s Enduring History with the Gun. It’s thorough, and keeps you reading at a gallop. If you are interested in anything firearm-related during our past 500 years, it’s here. And that […]
The Henry American Eagle rifle dons a unique new finish, and the results are incredible. How do you pay homage to the National Bird of America with a truly unique firearm design? The new American Eagle from Henry Repeating Arms does it with style and patriotism in a classic design. The dedicated crew at Henry has […]
Boy, we love us some lever guns. And, as you can tell from our reviews, we really love us some Henry lever guns. Now they’re out with a new Long Ranger model (see JWT’s rare-as-hen’s-teeth five-star write-up of the .308 Long Ranger), this one chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. They’ve also announced a fancy new .22 […]
