Which Type of Shotgun Load is Best for Home Defense?
Adding two layers of sheetrock, as would be found in most residential construction, paints a more complete picture of what makes for penetration—and overpenetration.

Review: Heckler & Koch SP5K-PDW
Genuine Heckler & Koch roller-delayed blowback arms such as the HK 91, 93, and 94 have always been popular with American shooters and collectors, but, aside from the HK SP5K imported in 2017, these legacy arms have been unavailable since the early 1990s.

So, earlier this fall, John Lott accepted a position at the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). Specifically, he went to work as a senior adviser for research and statistics at the Office of Justice Programs—this is a DOJ division that quietly gives out $5 billion in grants annually. Sounds like …
Head to Head: .444 Marlin vs. .45-70 Government

Classics: The MG42 Belt-fed Machinegun
When we think of German infantry fighting forces in combat during the Second World War, we typically picture them armed with three specific guns: the Kar98k bolt-action rifle, the MP40 submachine gun and what many people consider the best belt-fed machine gun of the war: the fearsome MG42. While the …
Biden Campaign Manager Has Long History Against Freedom
It should not be a surprise that Jen O’Malley Dillon, Joe Biden’s campaign manager—and, should he be inaugurated in January, his deputy chief of staff—supports every gun-control proposal Biden has for your rights; the thing is, her history of anti-gun stances actually goes far beyond her work for the Biden …
