Century Arms PAP M92: A Range Review
Century Arms International (CAI) has been manufacturing firearms from parts kits and components for a number of years. In the beginning, some of their firearms left a little to be desired. However, in recent years, they've stepped up their game and have been producing some very nice guns. I have one of their AK-63D underfolder AKs, and it's a great rifle. So, when my buddy bought one of their PAP M92 AK-47 pistols, I jumped at the chance to help put it through its paces.
6.5 Creedmoor vs. 6mm ARC: Which One’s Better?
Comparing the 6.5 Creedmoor and 6mm ARC is a little like apples and oranges. Both cartridges were designed for superior long-range use, but they were made for different platforms. The 6.5 Creedmoor is made for the AR-10, while the 6mm ARC is meant more for the AR-15. But what if you’re trying to decide between the two? Which cartridge is better and why?

Radical Arms vs ATI OMNI Hybrid AR-15: A Comparison Review
The Radical Arms RF-15 and ATI OMNI Hybrid AR-15 both offer great value at their price point. I would say both guns are worth the price, but the choice of which to by just depends on what you’re looking for.
Surefire Warden Blast Can: Great for the Range
The Surefire Warden is a game-changer when it comes to muzzle brakes. If you don't already have one, it's about time you get one.
The Kahr CW9: An Underrated Concealed Carry Option
My Kahr CW9 came with two magazines, a small plastic box, and a manual. According to the manual, the gun should have a 200-round break-in period. In the modern era, it seems odd that break-in periods still exist for guns. Luckily, mine was used, and someone must've already gone through that break-in period. My gun ran like a well-made watch and I didn't run into any malfunctions to speak of.
