At SHOT Show 2020, a trip to the Beretta booth would have gotten an early look at the new, built-for-competition 92X Performance pistol. The all-steel frame Beretta 92 variant was built for competition right out of the box with extended controls, fiber-optic front sight, checkering on the front and back straps …

Although “technology” may be viewed as repugnant by some—especially among older adults—the associated advancements aren’t necessarily unfavorable. As an example, until the advent of the self-contained, all-metallic cartridge in the 19th century, the components required to discharge a firearm—ignition source, powder/propellant and projectile(s), among other things—were, for the most part …

Recently, we posted about a variety of handy folding knives for everyday carry. While small- to mid-size folders can handle a plethora of daily tasks, some jobs call for bigger blades, more specialized tools or even a small hand axe. So, as we head into the holiday season, here are a few …

Viridian Weapon Technologies is now selling an E Series laser sight module that is compatible with the .22 caliber Heritage Rough Rider revolver.

“Don’t get stuck on stupid” is a great saying. That’s why I wrote it about some of the tactical world in my book, “Prepper Guns”; a significant few  are stuck on stupid.  We long ago moved on to semi-automatic handguns and rifles for self-defense, yet much of the tactical world …

When it comes to handguns, I am an equal opportunist: Revolvers, semi-autos; I love them all. That same sense of equality comes through as a collector. Though there are considerably more pistols and revolvers than long guns in La Bunker del Boyd, when it comes to handguns, surprisingly both wheelguns …

Located in Fort Wayne, Ind., Tippmann Arms has combined the popular AR-15 operating platform with the economical .22 Long Rifle cartridge to create the M4-22 family of rimfire guns. The lineup includes five handguns and 12 rifles, but the operating action is the same for all; the models differ only …

It seems that the list of gun-related topics President Joe Biden is “not joking” about continues to grow. On numerous occasions, when making his ignorant assertion that, “Deer don’t wear Kevlar vests,” the president has followed that with a terse, “I’m not joking.” Now, apparently, he’s not joking about banning …

By the thinnest of margins, on November 8, Oregon voters appear to have passed an initiative that will require a permit to purchase any firearm, along with completing safety training. The license will be good for five years. Ballot Measure 114 also bans “large capacity magazines.” At this point, you are asking, “Didn’t the Bruen decision prohibit such laws?” The …
