Pretty cool. RIA is getting ready to auction of one of Elvis’ 6 shooters. A Model 53 S&W in .22 Remington Jet. The neat thing about the 53 to me is the round it fires and its ability to shoot 22. long rifle. The gun is chambered for the .22 Remington Jet, but came withContinue reading “Elvis 22. Rem Jet Up For Auction”

The U.S. Military uses the Knights Armament Corp.’s M4 and M5 rail systems on the M4 and M16 respectively.  These rails are good heavy duty products.  That said, they are an aging design and there are newer lighter cheaper nicer designs.  MSRP on the M4 and M5 RAS run about 320 dollars which is ratherContinue reading “Installing The KAC M4 And M5 ras”

By Adam long time friend to the website. From watching them pop out of Secret Service brief cases during the assassination attempt on Pres. Reagan, to reading stories of Israeli conflicts and African bush wars on the pages of Soldier of Fortune Magazine, to hearing Arnold Schanzegger ask for a “UZI nine millah meetah” inContinue reading “UZI Review”

When I browse the gun boards on the internet, I still see the claims by bench rest experts about how a carbine has to have the barrel free floated, preferably with a 400 dollar match stainless steel barrel. Or even more laughable. with a  cold hammer forged barrel.  Otherwise you are gonna be stuck withContinue reading “Accuracy Testing A Rack Grade M4 ,What Can You Expect”

Earlier this year I received the Inland/Bond Arms  “liberator”   derringer pistol.   With Inland making a lot of WW2 era guns over the last few years and them teaming up with other companies like Ithaca to make others,  it isn’t a surprise the name was brought back as a homage of the old single shot pistolContinue reading “Inland MFG/Bond Arms “Liberator” Test & Review”
