IWI has built an impressive reputation in the firearms world with guns like the Masada and Jericho pistols, UZI, and Tavor, each of which features unique, ground-breaking designs. New for 2020, the company expanded its reach into the American market with the Zion-15, an AR-15-style rifle built in Middletown, PA. While it’s hardly as sexy as previous firearms from IWI, …

Out with the old, in with the new. At least that’s how I felt the first time I popped in Tetra’s latest electronic earplugs. The company’s AlphaShield line (starts at $699) are entry-level, universal-fit earplugs that borrow some of the latest tech from hearing aids to help shooters preserve their …

Many years ago, I was honored to be a guest at the Smith & Wesson factory in Springfield, Mass. To say that I was struck emotionally would be a big understatement. I began collecting and shooting Smith & Wesson revolvers more than 50 years ago, and the opportunity to visit and see …

In other words, a joke. The reputation for plastics …

We’ve covered the Springfield Armory Hellcat OSP previously on “I Carry,” and with good reason. This micro-compact pistol’s size puts it in one category, while its capacity clearly puts it in another.
