.380 ACP in Your 9mm Pistol: Will it work?
Can you shoot .380 ACP in your 9mm pistol? I did it and I highly recommend not doing it. Let's discuss why.
The Vortex Defender Series: ST vs CCW Comparison
The Vortex Defender series started with the Defender-CCW and has expanded into the Defender-ST. I would pick the Defender-ST as a budget optic for a handgun and endorse it wholeheartedly. It's definitely an improvement over the Defender-CCW.
Gucci Guns: Practical or Expensive Paperweights?
The concept of being "Gucci" extends into all facets of popular culture and guns are no different. Question is, how much is too much?
Beretta 3032 vs. The 30X: Tip-Up Slug Fest
The Beretta 30X is a welcome improvement to the 3032 in some ways and an exciting step back in others. It’s bigger, which makes it comfier to shoot but tougher to conceal. The durability factor delivers a significant improvement to the gun. Which is better? I’d suggest the 30X, hoping Beretta or someone else will release seven-round mags and thin grips. I still like the 3032, but it might not be for you if you’re unwilling to pay attention to your ammo selection.
Burris RT-3 Mini-3X Prism Sight: A Quick Review
I think the Burris RT-3 Mini-3X Prism Sight is an excellent entry-level optic for the home defense rig. It's affordable and reliable, and while I wish there was an auto-on feature, the optic is rather accurate. It gets the job done and doesn't break the bank. I'll count that as a win.
The ENDO Adapter: Brace Your Glock
Why shouldn't I turn my Glock into a PDW? A little company called Endo Tactical produced one of the more interesting Glock accessories on the market.
Aimpoint ACRO P-2 vs Steiner MPS: A Red Dot Comparison
Aimpoint and Steiner both make top-quality optics that are built like tanks. As companies tend to do, they compete with similar products that offer some great options. Today, we are looking at the Aimpoint ACRO P-2 and the Steiner MPS red dot sights. Both are closed emitter dots, which are quickly becoming popular in the handgun world. But, which is better for real-world scenarios? Well, let's discuss.
The Grendel P12: The Proto Pocket .380 ACP
What surprised me more than anything was the reliability of the gun. I fired 150 rounds of Fioochi 95 grain through the gun and it all went bang. It was problem-free. That's not a lot of ammo, but I wasn't going to torture test a gun that's not been on the market for 30 years.
Samson’s A-Team Mini-14 Folding Stock: As Good As The Original?
These folding stocks enhance shootability and storage options, so the practical advantages are solid. Aside from that, there is the cool factor from the aesthetics that we enjoy so much. These stocks can be had in either a stainless finish to match Ruger's stainless Mini-14 finish or black. Either way, they're attractive and function great. Getcha one!
EAA Windicator Revolver: A Range Review
The quality of the Windicator seems solid, and it's proven to be a reliable revolver. It may not be quite as polished as some others on the market, but the Germans seem to have gotten this one right. Throw in a couple of speed loaders or speed strips, and you're all set!
