This week Michael shows how to take a good basic 1911, a 9mm Tisas Stingray, and turn it into something special…a custom 1911 you can actually afford! Also, the Rock Island 9mm revolver — a gem, thanks to Dave Fink!

Attendance is down for some firearms classes — and, yes, there are exceptions...looking at you, GUNSITE — as the economy continues to batter the middle class. Also, the last word on AIWB, courtesy Dave Spaulding.

This week we continue looking at some perfect custom guns, in this case a Cimarron 1873 Deluxe Short Rifle converted to the stubby .44 Russian round for Cowboy Action Shooting. Also, an excellent pistol rest that's easy on the wallet, courtesy MTM Case-Gard.

The bump stock ban and the pistol brace final rule go down in flames the same week! But remember…courts can be finicky friends. Also, looking at the Tademkross/MaddMac hybrid .22 and the perfect “snake gun,” the Rossi RP63 with DoubleTap Snake Shot.

It seems that as competitions of all sorts proliferate, social media grousing about competition gets worse and worse. This week we look at why that happens.

…and a touch of perfection! This week Michael starts shooting the pair of Rossis he’ll be using at the GUNSITE lever action/handgun class soon. Plus, Ed Brown’s magnificent Kobra Carry 1911.

We all think we know what gun safety is, but do we? Here are some thoughts to help you figure it out.

In addition to all the political maneuvering, there were several really interesting new guns at the NRA Show in Dallas. Let’s take a quick look!

This week Dr. David Yamane’s GUN CURIOUS and Paul G. Markel’s LIVING ARMED top our list of must read new books. Also, the rise (again) of the Rimfire Challenge.

Over a storied career in law enforcement, Dave Spaulding emerged as one of the top firearms trainers in America. His Handgun Combatives' classes, driven both by his skill as a presenter and his dry humor, were filled almost as soon as they were announced. Dave has zero respect for sacred cows, and today he slays a herd!
