Does My Self-Defense Gun Need A Safety?
I saw a question posted recently in a Facebook gun group that caught my eye, mainly because it’s not a topic we’ve covered on this blog before. The question was something like this: How many of you have a manual safety on your carry gun? If so, why? I’ll attempt to answer this question in […]

Armscor Ammo Review: Is It Any Good?
We’re still plagued by massive ammo price spikes and shortages on the shelves. This means we need to find ammo at the best possible price so we can train properly. And of course, this also means that I’m constantly seeing questions about ammunition companies from people who haven’t dealt with those respective companies before. Because […]
CMMG Issues Recall on 5.7 Magazines
This is not a safety recall and the company is calling it a magazine exchange. CMMG has issued a recall on defective 5.7X28 AR Conversion Magazines. The company says that all 5.7 AR Conversion Magazines are affected by this recall and that they will exchange all magazines for new ones. The defect allows the ammo […]
Federal Premium’s New 30 Super Carry Self-Defense Cartridge

The 30 Super Carry is a new handgun cartridge meant to bridge the gap between the 9mm Luger and the 380 ACP’s effectiveness. The […]
