It clearly states in my SIG P365 owner’s manual that I need to change the recoil spring every 2,500 rounds. This seemed fast to me, so I thought I’d do a hefty amount of research to answer the following question: How long does a recoil spring last? A recoil spring will last between 2,000 and […]

Canik TP9 Elite SC Review (First Impressions With Shooting Video)
I recently had the chance to shoot about 150 rounds through a brand new pistol (300+ through this pistol by different people) and what follows is my Canik TP9 Elite SC review (first impressions). The first thing that caught my eye when shooting this new sub compact pistol, is just how flat shooting it was. […]
Taurus Spectrum Review (Updated Customer Thoughts)
Taurus Spectrum Review Update: I’ve had the Taurus Spectrum for a while now, and I admittedly don’t shoot it that often. Since I’ve had it I’ve only brought it to the range on a few different occasions. It kind of sucks to shoot, for me anyway. Part of the problem I’ve had is the trigger […]
SIG Sauer P365XL Review – First Impressions
Oops, I did it again. I bought a gun to do a review on. This time around, it’s a SIG Sauer P365XL Review. I hate sounding like a fanboy, because honestly, I don’t like fanboys. This thing, though, this one is fantastic–so far. As of right now with more than 300 rounds in (no hollow […]

The model has gone through a few different changes since then, including a contoured grip to help the concealed carrier hide his or her gun better. I have to be honest, this is […]

Charter Arms Professional Revolver
If you didn’t know, I spent the weekend at the Concealed Carry Expo put on by the USCCA held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. That’s a show that goes on every year with an organization that’s growing bigger with each passing year. While gun companies usually hold off on new releases until SHOT Show or the NRA […]
Boisterous Appendix Carriers Are The Vegans Of The Concealed Carry World
Nothing against veganism if that’s your thing–but I like meat and have zero plans to stop eating it. In the same vein, I won’t disagree that Appendix carry is a legit method of carrying your gun, if it works for you. But, for me, it doesn’t work. And, to really put a fine point on […]
