In a world of hyper-velocity cartridges, where shooting into the next zip code has almost become the norm, it can be refreshing to spend some time with one of the classic rimmed cartridges which our grandfathers used for varmints, predators and small-game species. In fact, the relatively mild report and virtual lack …

To say that the Model 1873 Winchester set the world on fire is a bit of an understatement. Winchester knew it had a winner with the Model 1866, but the folded-rim cartridges were simply not up to the task of containing the pressures necessary to launch anything of substantive power. The centerfire primer gave …

Winchester Ammunition announced a $125,000 pledge for the Folds of Honor Foundation, which provides educational scholarships to the spouses and children of fallen or disabled service members of the U.S. armed forces. “We are so grateful for the patriots at Winchester and for the company’s generous support,” said Lt. Col. Dan Rooney, …

Springfield Armory has unveiled a new addition to its lineup of handguns for 2022, with the introduction of the 1911 DS Prodigy pistols.

On Thursday, Sept. 1, New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul’s new gun restrictions take effect and there’s one common feeling across the state: confusion. The governor decried the decision when the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Empire State’s subjective restrictive “may issue” concealed carry requirements. She was “shocked” and responded by pushing …

President Joe Biden is at it again. He’s throwing out wild and unfounded lies to scare Americans into supporting his push for an unconstitutional ban on Modern Sporting Rifles (MSRs). If that’s not outlandish enough, he continues to antagonize and threaten war against American citizens simply for exercising their Constitutionally-protected …

The ATF’s “Ghost Gun” and Gun Registry Final Rule just went into effect. This tyrannical new rule not only restricts homemade firearms, but it also turns the ATF’s partial billion-record gun registry into a COMPLETE federal registry. While GOA will continue to fight this unconstitutional rule in the courts, we …

“We beat the NRA,” said President Joe Biden (D) during a speech in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., earlier this week at a choreographed, campaign-style stop in Pennsylvania. This was one of many remarks Biden made during his attack on one of the oldest civil-rights organizations in the nation, law-abiding gun owners and more. Here are some …

Last June—in an NRA-ILA backed case—the United States Supreme Court declared that the Second Amendment protects the right of law abiding citizens to carry a firearm for personal protection and struck the “proper cause” requirement in New York’s Sullivan Law.
