Firearm Reviews
The 10mm is a versatile cartridge that’s capable of doing things the 9mm simply cannot. That doesn’t mean it’s ideal for everyone or perfect for all situations, but it does mean it’s worth having at least one 10mm handgun.
The Rise and Fall of the .40 S&W
The .40’s fall from popularity was precipitous. Today, there are gun shops where if you want a .40 you’ll have to order one because they don’t keep them in stock, and they won’t even take one in trade because no one seems to want to buy a used one.
Flattop Ruger Blackhawk: Why Ruger’s First .357 is Such a Big Deal
The Ruger Blackhawk is one of the most beloved modern revolvers ever to hit the market. Though it had its fair share of setbacks, collectors and sixgunners still flock to the Blackhawk in droves.
The P32 vs the Tomcat: .32 ACP Shootout
In the gun world, the classic 'you get what you pay for' is a very real thing. Spending extra money on guns and gear often results in obtaining better guns and gear. Is it always true? Well, as they say, "Only a Sith deals in absolutes." How do we know if we don't try? With that in mind, I took out two of the few modern production .32 ACP handguns on the market to see if the price stumps everything.
Walther PD380: An Honest Appraisal
In 2023, Walther launched the PD380, a compact single-stack pistol in .380 ACP. Unlike other guns in Walther's lineup, the PD380 is a retread of the existing PK380. The PK380 kicked off the current trend of modern full-sized .380 pistols some 15 years ago. As a fan of the PK380, I had to get my hands on the new PD380 to see what has changed, what has stayed the same, and whether or not you should spend your hard-earned money on it.
The Grand Power Stribog SP10 A3: On the Range with a Single-Point Sling
When Grand Power introduced the Stribog SP9 pistol, it was considered the hidden gem for sub-gun-sized weapons. It was reliable, compact, and most of all, it was priced well. Now, they are not so hidden and Grand Power is continuing to expand the line of Stribog weapons. Among the newest is the 10mm SP10, built around the same reliable platform as the SP9 but with some improvements. I’ve taken it out to the range multiple times, and it’s performed flawlessly on every occasion. And, thanks to its roller-delayed blowback system, it has very little recoil making it easy to stay on target.
A Review of the Glock 20: Yes, You Need One
Chambered in 10mm, the Glock 20 is a must-have for any gun collection. It's a viable option for carry, alternative hunting, and target shooting. But don't just take our word for it; check it out for yourself!
The Weird World of Submachine Guns
I love weird SMGs. Many of us do. We've compiled a short list of some of the weirdest (and coolest) SMGs ever to be produced.
The AK-63D and Bulgarian Magazines: A Winning Combination
It looks just like an AK-47, and it basically is. A few years ago, Century Arms began importing parts kits from Hungary to assemble the Hungarian AK-63D, which is that country's version of the AK-47. The particular rifle being evaluated today has an underfolding, metal stock.
The AK-47s We Have At Home: A “Best Of” List
The AK is a great rifle. It's revolutionary, both literally and figuratively. However, as imports have dried up, prices have risen. It's tough to justify buying an AK over a more modern example when their prices are that much different. What do you think? Are you a hardcore AK nerd, or is there room for a more modern option?
