Palmetto State Armory ARV 9mm Review
From our buddy The New Rifleman The 9mm AR15 market is saturated. There are many, many options available to the consumer. This is my first exposure to a pistol caliber AR platform, so pardon my observations when comparing it to a 5.56 rifle. Is the first time a charm? Today were going to take aContinue reading “Palmetto State Armory ARV 9mm Review”
Interesting Chamber Plugs
I typically write about Colt items but every once in a while something else catches my eye. This chamber block / chamber flag design is one of those things. It is very unique and seemed to be a great design for what it is. This design is being used by a federal agency that isContinue reading “Interesting Chamber Plugs”

Winchester Model 52
The Winchester Model 52. One of the greatest rifles of all time. Some even have called it “perfect” in the past. I don’t know if it is perfect but it comes about as close to it as I would want in a rimfire target rifle that comes from a factory. The M52 was made inContinue reading “Winchester Model 52”
AR15 At 1,000 Yards (Can a rack grade AR15 and M855 make 1,000 yard hits?)
For a while now there has been a lot of talk about how ineffective the 5.56 service round is. It’s all over the internet gun boards and the popular slick newsstand gun magazines.
