Review: Acme Machine 25-216 Flagship AM-15
We decided to put the Acme Machine 25-216 Flagship AM-15 through its paces and fill you in on how it did. Long story short, it turned out to be a great rifle for hunting, home defense, and plinking. It cycles reliably, is accurate on target, and seems like it will handle anything you throw at it.
The Rock Island Armory Budget Friendly Double-Stack M1911
For less than a grand, the RIA TAC Ultra FS HC is one helluva gun. It could be better, but it could also be a lot worse. It's surprisingly reliable with the cheapest ammo I can find. It's plenty accurate, but it is begging for a red dot optic. If you want to jump on the double stack M1911 or 2011 bandwagon, this gun makes it easy to do so.
Henry Homesteader vs Ruger PC Carbine: A Comparison Review
The Henry Homesteader and the Ruger PC Carbine are two of the most popular non-AR-15-style PCCs currently on the market. But how do they stack up against one another? Is one better than the other?

Savage Renegauge Security — A Dark Horse Tactical Shotgun
The Savage Renegauge Security is a dark horse among modern shotguns. The rotating bolt and drive system are clever and perfect for high-volume shooting with a controllable recoil. This gun was surprisingly impressive after some time on the range.
Review: Remington R1 Enhanced Double Stack
While double stack 1911s aren't for everyone, Remington's R1 Enhanced double stack in .45 ACP is worth taking a second look at if you're in the market for a quality double stack 1911.
The Lipsey’s Exclusive S&W 432 Ultimate Carry and the Case for the .32 Revolver
Smith & Wesson and Lipsey's Distributors teamed up to release the new S&W 432 Ultimate Carry. As a fan of the .32, the new 432 UC gave me a chance to revisit an old friend in a new platform to see if the round and revolver make the mark.
Walther Q5 Match Review: Utilitarian Race Gun
The Walther Q5 Match checks all the boxes for me. It’s accurate, comfortable, consistent, and above all else, reliable. The pistol performed flawlessly and looks good to boot. If you’re in the market for an entry-level race gun or utilitarian “do-all” gun, give the Q5 Match a shot.
Colt King Cobra 22 Long Rifle Revolver: A Quick Review
The Colt King Cobra is small enough for even my 11-year-old daughter to shoot, yet large enough for grown men to grip easily. Its medium-sized frame lends it to be a perfect candidate as an easy-packing woods gun, a handgun light, handy, and accurate to be carried in a good belt holster or a handy chest rig.
Why Everyone Should Own a Glock (Yes, Even You)
Glock pistols are not the prettiest, the most original, or the flashiest, but I'll be damned if they aren't reliable, customizable, and easy to maintain. Glock is the firearm equivalent of a dependable old pickup truck – not the most exciting ride, but when the going gets tough, you’ll be glad it’s in your arsenal.
