Masters of the Air: The M2 .50 Caliber Truly Made the B-17 a Flying Fortress

The popular Apple TV+ miniseries "The Masters of the Air" tells the story of World War II aviators who served in the United States Army Air Force's 100th Bomb Group of the 8th Air Force. The follow-up to "Band of Brothers" and "The Pacific" from producers Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks has already been noted for its gritty realism and features the vast armadas of the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress on its missions over occupied Europe.

Retro Cowboy Cool: Sam Elliott’s Iconic Firearms

To me, you can’t go wrong wherever you have Sam Elliott and firearms together on the silver screen.

Fact vs Fiction: Setting Straight the Myths of The Tuskegee Airmen

The term Tuskegee Airmen refers not only to the almost 1,000 black military pilots who trained to fly at Tuskegee, but also to the thousands of ground personnel who were also assigned to the units and stationed at their bases in Europe.

Clint Eastwood: A Career Full of Firearms

Clint Eastwood has had many, many more movies and shows with firearms. His career has shown his knowledge of firearms and, in some instances, parts of his own collection. In the 60-plus years he’s been making shows and movies, he’s provided the viewing public with some pretty iconic and lovely firearms.

Silent Night: A John Woo Christmas

I love Christmas action movies. While everyone pretends there is some excellent internet debate about Die Hard being a Christmas movie, they ignore all the other awesome action Christmas movies. This includes stuff like last year's "Violent Night." This year, we got "Silent Night." Silent Night isn't just a new Christmas action movie, but John Woo's return to the American big screen as well.

The Most Ridiculous Real Movie Guns

Guns have played a pivotal role in films since the invention of the Nickelodeon more than 100 years ago. But sometimes the stories are so wild and weird that the guns are just as goofy and terrible. We can celebrate Heat, Extraction, and John Wick for their awesome gun handling, but we can also sit back, turn our brains off, and enjoy the absurd, over-the-top stuff. This is our celebration of the insane and unrealistic.

TV Guns: The Guns of Yellowstone 1883 and 1923

Yellowstone was one of the biggest hits of the last five years. As you'd imagine, it's also a series of shows chock full of guns. Western guns are often a different kind of cool, so let's dig into the guns of 1883 and 1923. 

Guns of The Continental: A John Wick Series

The Continental is a prequel series that takes place in the 1970s. It details how Winston Scott (played by Ia McShane in the films) became the hotel's manager. The show is a three-part series with 1.5-hour episodes. It's run its course, and I was honestly excited but nervous to see how the small screen would handle John Wick. 

The Mare’s Leg: Pop Culture Cool

The Mare's Leg is born of Hollywood imagination, not the Old West. While undeniably cool, what's it good for and where did it come from? Let's delve into this increasingly popular piece of movie lore.
