R.I.A.’s Super 9mm Revolver, and GUNSITE Grows!
There is a true gem of a revolver in Rock Island Armory’s line of guns imported from the gun-making nation of the Czech Republic. The AL9.0 Standard, a six-shot 9mm revolver is a jewel! Also this week, we all know GUNSITE is the best training academy in the world…now it is bigger & better!
The Best Revolver Training…Period!
We begin our exclusive video coverage of the Pat Rogers Memorial Revolver Round-Up at GUNSITE! Plenty more coverage coming in January 2024!
Why Compact Pistols Make Sense
This week we continue our evaluation of the compact Stoeger over it’s micro-9mm cousin. Plus, the Taurus Judge expands…at least in barrel length…and a preview of the artistic guns of Europe travelogue.
A Great General Purpose Scope
A general purpose rifle deserves a scope that also functions in multiple contexts. This week Michael falls back on his old Swarovski 3.5 -18x, a scope that has seen much use over the years but remains a solid option. Also, the Stoeger STR-9C is coming into its own.
Carry On — Great Holsters for Multiple Carry Solutions
One of the hardest parts of the EDC equation is choosing a holster you can live with every day. There are lots of options, but here are several of Michael’s favorites that solve a number of problems.
The R.I.A. 5.0 Groundbreaking Surprise
In anticipation of the second generation 5.0E 9mm competition semiauto from Rock Island, we go back to the first of the year to take a look at the first 5.0 and see what makes it so different — and so important!
Three Great 3-Inch Revolvers
As the trend toward 3-inch .38/.357 revolvers continues unabated, shooters looking to “get their feet wet” should take a good luck at the selection from Taurus! Also, a wrap-up of the ICORE Worlds.
The Cyclops Roars!
Get ready to let the big Cyclops roar…Bond Arms’ single-shot 45-70 derringer is a handful, but it is an absolute hoot to shoot! And Michael says the companion .44 Magnum Cyclops barrel is, after the 45-70, a sweetheart to shoot. Also, after the Boomer, it’s a look at the "middle bear," the Stoeger STR-9C.
Let’s Get Small!
As part of our exclusive coverage of Bond Arms new monster blaster, the Cyclops 45-70 single shot derringer, we take a quick look back at All Things Bond!
Keeping the Ruger SFAR Lightweight
Over the summer we’ve been experimenting with fixed-power optics, sometimes combined with a magnifier, sometimes with a 1X red dot. Our test bed has been the Ruger SFAR .308, this week fitted with a brand new Lucid P8 4X and a Lucid Litl Mo 1X red dot. Also, more from the Ballistics Summit at Whittington and a new advertiser with an eye on safety.
