Over the course of five years and covering thousands of miles, I toured America to meet some of the millions of legal gun owners who, every day, proudly exercise their constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

Ever since the .500 Smith & Wesson Magnum came on the scene in 2003, there have been a bunch of folks trying to figure out how to cram the cartridge into a rifle—especially a lever-action rifle. It’s an American obsession ever since the cowboy days: A guy “needs” to have a lever-action rifle chambered for his handgun cartridge.

New NYPD officers are supplied with modified Glock 17 Gen 4 pistols for duty while the bulk of veteran officers carry older Glock 19 pistols.

I always get excited about testing Daniel Defense rifles. They built the upper for the SOPMOD kits we had back in the day (and still do for all I know), and it was a huge leap forward over the old busted M4s we had prior to that. Black Creek, GA, has always turned out tough, high-quality products, and the M4V7 Pro is no exception.

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick wants to reduce the licensing fees for concealed carry permits, which are currently some of the highest in the nation.

As others have noted, anti-gun rhetoric from Hollywood represents the height of hypocrisy. The same celebrities and producers who speak out against guns portray guns favorably in their movies and make millions of dollars in the process.

I love AR-15 type rifles as much, and probably more than the next guy. But if we’re to be honest with each other, I think we can agree that the standard mil-spec trigger kind of sucks. Obviously, a trigger upgrade doesn’t make the gun mechanically more accurate, but it does make it a heck of a lot easier to shoot the rifle more accurately. That’s part of the design goal behind Blackhawk’s AR Blaze Trigger for AR-15 rifles.

David Blaine has risen above the title of magician, at least in my book. I think dude has reach “wizard” level because some of the stunts he pulls nowadays would even have the great Gandalf shaking his head in disbelief.

“These guys are prepared for war now, they have seven guns, seven,” Brayen said.
