New Mexico Democratic Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham held a recent press conference to praise herself for implementing dubious gun control measures. Her initial 30-day suspension of Constitutional rights was forcefully and roundly criticized. Even Everytown for Gun Safety-endorsed Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen flat out rejected enforcing it. Now, as the governor extended her …

In the latest sign that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s “assault weapon” gun ban and confiscation scheme is more concerned with persecuting responsible gun-owners than keeping Canadians safe, the amnesty period has (once again) been extended. Readers may recall the extreme language the Liberal government employed in May 2020 to justify …

Twenty-six percent of participants in a 1999 Pew Research survey who owned a gun said protection was the primary reason they exercised their Second Amendment rights. By 2013, the figure jumped to 48 percent. Results in 2017 indicated it climbed yet again, up to two-thirds, and this year’s results, released in late August, …

Q. I recently acquired a used Mossberg 835 shotgun in 12 gauge. The 24″ barrel is rifled, ported and has a 3.5″ chamber. The owner’s manual says not to shoot rifled slugs in this barrel, only sabot slugs. Why is that? A. The conventional lead “rifled slug” was developed for use in …

Released at SHOT Show 2023, Lone Wolf’s Dusk 19 pistol might seem, at first glance, to be a clone of that Austrian Perfection. There’s a lot more to it than that, though: Lone Wolf has been making upgraded components for owners of that Austrian pistol for decades and has decided to eliminate …

Savage Arms has announced the release of its 110 Trail Hunter. As any hunter knows, a do-it-all hunting rifle needs to stand up to the elements no matter the conditions—for this reason, Savage has teamed up with Hogue to introduce the 110 Trail Hunter. “We’re beyond excited to reveal this latest addition to …

This week, we’re taking a closer look at an import from KFI Firearms, manufactured by Silah—the Impala Plus shotgun. Available in 24-, 26-, 28-, 30- and 32-inch barrel lengths, the semi-automatic Impala Plus has a variant to suit any hunter’s needs. The action is recoil operated, for clean but-consistent cycling, and …

In the years since I began seriously pursuing handgun-related endeavors, one of my favorite types of .22 LR revolvers—the mid-size frame double-action—has taken a back seat to other models. Today polymer framed semi-automatics and budget priced single-action revolvers seem to rule the roost. That’s a shame because double-action wheel guns …

The 1942 Disney children’s classic Bambi is getting a remake and chatter from Hollywood insiders suggests the reboot will not include one particularly critical scene. Not surprisingly, producers are leaving out the scene when the titular young fawn’s mother is presumably killed by a hunter. “Not to spoil the plot, …
