We see a common thought among some gun owners regarding the use of a truck gun. These gun owners feel so strongly about having a gun in their car or truck for protection that they keep their gun in their vehicle at all times – to include when they’re sleeping in their home at night. […]
Cryptocurrency and Gun Sales
If there is one thing that absolutely plagues gun shops, or anyone who sells “risky” products, it is the way they are forced to accept payments. I learned this firsthand when I opened my small retail ammo distributorship. Trying to find a company to work with me to process credit was nearly impossible. Thankfully we […]
Henry Repeating Arms Adds to Production with New Wisconsin Facility
Good news for Henry Repeating Arms fans. Henry just expanded its operations at a new location in Ladysmith, Wisconsin.

New Springfield SA 35 (Hi Power) and Mossberg’s MC2sc
We’re starting to get into the time of the year when gun manufacturers start to release guns like it’s their job. Already, we’ve had some great announcements from the likes of Kimber, Diamondback, and others. Over the weekend, there were two new guns announced. Let’s take a quick look at each one.

Should I Buy A Pistol With a Pre-Installed Red Dot?
The pistol red dot is all the rage these days. You can kind of consider it a revolution. What was once considered to be sort of idiotic, reserved only for range toys or competitors, and out of reach for the average concealed carrier, is now well within reach. It’s the new normal. In fact, any […]
Brass Goat AR-15 Brass Catcher
With shooting and reloading supplies remaining in short supply, maintaining those supplies has become more critical than ever. Even if you’re not a reloader, picking up your brass may now be worth the effort. Prices for clean yellow brass in my area are now in the $2.25 to $2.50 range per pound. This means that […]
Smith & Wesson M&P 12 Shotgun Recalled
The brand New S&W M&P 12 Bullpup shotgun was just issued a safety recall by the company for two reports of a cracked barrel. A cracked barrel is dangerous for hopefully obvious reasons. This safety recall affects all shotguns manufactured before October 15th 2021. Smith & Wesson has asked all shotguns be returned to them […]
Best 380 ACP Ammo For Self-Defense
The 380 ACP gets a lot of mixed reviews as a self-defense cartridge. Truth be told, there is a reason for this and many of the “experts” have claimed that it is insufficient for stopping an attack. Other people who I’d consider to be smart have said that the 380 ACP is likely the smallest […]
SHOT Show 2022 Set, With Road Bumps Ahead
The industry’s trade show, SHOT Show, has been held every year for decades. It has bounced around some, but for the past several years and well into the future due to contracts, the conference is (sadly) held in Las Vegas, Nevada. The 2021 year show was cancelled for hopefully obvious reasons, but the NSSF, or […]
Diamondback Sidekick in 22 LR and 22 WMR
Based in Florida, Diamondback Firearms just recently announced a new revolver with an old west flavor. The Sidekick, a nine-shot revolver in single and double action in .22 LR or .22 Magnum. For folks wanting a lightweight revolver for hiking, small game hunting and back country utility the Sidekick may just be the ticket. While the .22 LR […]
