April 5, 2021 By Joshua Gillem 11 Comments

Updated from November 2018. This list of the best 9mm pistols has been evolving over the past four or five years. It started out as a short list of seven or so pistols, grew to about 20 with the last iteration, and is being shortened back down again as I’m done trying to please everyone. […]

380 ACP Ballistics and Guide

December 28, 2020 By Joshua Gillem

Why 380, and why now? While there is a good reason as to why my family owns a couple of pistols chambered in 380 I’m going to be completely honest with you and say that the 380 is not my first choice for self-defense. I’ll get to the reasons why it’s not my first choice […]

Top 8 Best 22 Pistols (LR, Magnum, TCM, Semi, Revolver)

October 30, 2019 By Joshua Gillem 5 Comments

There are a lot of these “best 22 pistol” articles out there on the interwebs, but most of them fail to realize one simple truth: There are plenty of guns that deserve to be listed that aren’t chambered in .22LR (long rifle). For some reason, people seem to forget that there are more chamberings than […]

Top 5 Best Budget Guns

May 10, 2019 By Travis Pike Leave a Comment

“Best budget gun” articles are a dime a dozen. My main problem with these lists is they often feature cheap guns, but they are typically not very good guns. I won’t name names but some guns are great if you want to load them, put them away, and never actually use. If you want a […]

May 15, 2018 By Travis Pike Leave a Comment

glock vs 1911

While the Glock vs 1911 debate is about as old as gun forums it still rages. It’s likely to never end, and we’ll always hear 17 rounds versus 8, or how many World Wars did the Glock win? We aren’t settling that debate today, instead, we are going to revamp and talk about building Glocks […]

November 10, 2017 By Joshua Gillem Leave a Comment

If there is one thing you’ll find out as you go on through your career as a concealed gun carrier, it’s that there are as many concealed carry gun holsters as there are firearms manufacturers.

Gun Test: FNS9-C Review in Flat Dark Earth

August 18, 2017 By Joshua Gillem 2 Comments
