I’ve been shooting rifles in competition for more than half my life. I’ve got a more than a handful of CMP medals and tens of thousands of rounds down range in both matches and practice. Last year I placed 7th overall in the National Vintage Rifle Match at Camp Perry and earned the highest score […]
We don’t do a lot of straight press releases or sale announcements, but this one from Brownells is worth a mention. They’ve partnered with eleven other industry names you know to support the Special Operations Wounded Warriors with a portion of sales proceeds through July 4. If you need something anyway — and you know […]
Early this morning, Brownells sent out a Tweet indicating that YouTube had restored their channel. YouTube has had gun owners very upset with them for months now. However, the national media attention drawn by banning Brownells probably caused YouTube and its parent company Google a little too much bad publicity. As we reported two days ago YouTube […]
The gradual, incremental, persistent, unrelenting “other”-ing of guns and those who sell, shoot, broadcast and write about them continues apace. The latest victim: Brownells. Yes, the notoriously radical, fire-breathing Iowa-based retailer has had their YouTube page deleted by the don’t-be-evil types who run YouTube, the Google-owned video platform. Brownells just announced the move on their […]
Put down the Phillips screwdriver and hammer. Yes, I see you, banging away at your trigger pins and moments away from the inevitable slip-and-gouge across the side of your AR lower.

The new old rifle comes with the […]

Brownells won’t be peddling poodle skirts or coonskin caps any time soon, but they’re hearkening back to the 1950s and Eugene Stoner’s most iconic design for the latest additions to their famously comprehensive product line-up. They’re now offering M16A1 furniture in three decorator colors to achieve the classic look you’ve been wanting your AR. Here’s […]
Following on the release of their impressive M2.0 duty-sized M&P pistols (read our review here), you had to know the next logical step would be to roll out compact, more easily concealed versions. Well Brownells is already showing the guns for sale: And our friends at Ammoland got a look, too . . . Smith & Wesson […]
There aren’t a lot of gunners who haven’t spent hours browsing Brownells’ site (and maybe their catalogs in the olden days) for parts and gear to fix and customize the firearms they already own. Now, though, they’ll be able to buy not only accessories and tools, but also the guns themselves. Brownells just announced that […]
Brownells bills itself as “The World’s Largest Supplier of Firearms Supplies and Gunsmithing Tools.” It may not be the catchiest strap-line in the ballistic business, but, like the company’s products, it’ll git ‘er done.
