Washington State Prefers to Blame Guns, Not Criminals

Meanwhile, violent crime in Washington state and …
DEMONIZING GUN ADS IS A MISGUIDED WITCH HUNT
Gun control advocates are ready to start grabbing pitchforks and torches in their attempt to drive out firearm manufacturer advertisements.

Review: CMMG Banshee Mk10 Pistol
Glock-magazine-compatible ARs continue to be hot sellers with many models to choose from, yet despite this crowded market, nearly all of them use the simple blowback operating system to cycle the action.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi Goes After Law-Abiding Americans

Beretta 92X Performance Pistol Review
I first laid eyes on the Beretta 92X Performance at the 2019 NRA Annual Meetings conference in Indianapolis, IN. It was a featured attraction at the Beretta booth, and as a self-confessed Beretta enthusiast, I could not wait to see it in-person. There are two reasons why the 92X Performance’s launch was …

For years now, leftist politicians across America have promoted a pro-criminal agenda that included gun control initiatives marketed as “public safety” measures, no-bail and other criminal law reforms, and “depolicing” communities. Seattle, the tip of the progressive spear in Washington State, is now facing a crisis in crime arising from its commitment …
The Martini-Henry Rifle
Frequent readers of this column may have picked up on the fact that my interest in firearms came from watching them as they were used on television. Rainy Saturday afternoons were spent lying on the floor staring at the old black-and-white Zenith in the corner of the living room. Only …
