This backpack allows you to blend into your surroundings while keeping you at the ready. Check it out and let us know what you think in the comments below!

Certain debates in the gun community cause quite a stir. This is particularly true with anything relating to AR-15s, considering the popularity of the platform in the United States. That said, let’s debate the original direct gas impingement design in comparison to the gas piston system. I am going to compare how the operating systems run in a 5.56x45mm-chambered AR platform.

The boys from Texas showed up with their select-fire guns at the Big Sandy Shoot on Oct. 20-21 near Wikieup, Arizona. They camped next to us, and we spent two days shooting, laughing, and getting to know each other. They ran their guns hard and had a great time doing it.

What do you get when you cross a pit bull with a greyhound? That was the question asked by the folks at Patriot Ordnance Factory (POF) when they designed the Tombstone rifle! It incorporates the best features of the 92 Winchester carbine with the AR-15 rifle. Would Wyatt Earp have wanted a lever rifle that reloads from a detachable 20-round magazine? We will never know for sure. Stay tuned as I review and shoot this innovative combination of old and new.

The Mossberg 940 Pro Tactical is a top selling shotgun for a good reason. Its built like a tank and has a slew of really nice features that any defender of the domicile would enjoy. What do you think are the best features of this shotgun? Is there anything you would like to see improved? Let us know in the comments below!

Win 1 of 500 Alien Creators: https://go.getenteredtowin.com/gdc?utm_source=youtube The Alien is a totally unique pistol on today's modern market, and with their new creator series its customizable to end users preferences. It begs the question, is the Alien Creator the best competition pistol ever made? Is it the flattest shooting gun ever produced? It can certainly make a case for both. Let us know what you think in the comments below. Thanks!

The Smith & Wesson Model 325 Thunder Ranch might just be the perfect storm. As the gold standard for revolvers in the U.S., Smith & Wesson has been turning out quality wheel guns, among others, for over 150 years at its factory in Springfield, Massachusetts. When it comes to training, Clint Smith at Thunder Ranch holds a similar elite reputation. Built on an impressive resume, Thunder Ranch is one of the largest firearm training resources in the United States. Let’s look at what happens when a legendary wheel gun maker draws on the expertise of a firearms training legend.

Every cowpoke on a cattle drive needs a six-gun! Can’t find an original Colt? No problem, Ruger is here to save you! The Ruger Vaquero Stainless in .45 Colt is a modern version of the classic Colt Single Action Army (SAA). Check out the new Ruger Vaquero Stainless with me to evaluate its improvements over the old Colt.

We're taking a look at the highly anticipated Dan Wesson DWX in today's review. This gun has been talked about for years and late last year CZ finally released it to the masses. It's said to combine all the best features of the 1911 and CZ 75 platforms to make for one incredible smooth shooting gun. We have not been disappointed with the results. But the question still lingers, has this changed the competition shooting game?

Ever wonder what it would be like to own a dragon? Century Arms raises dragons and wants you to have one today. Named after a northern constellation of the same name, Draco (the Dragon) is a fitting name for a fire-breathing, compact powerhouse pistol based on the famous AK-47 line of rifles. Shortening the barrel and eliminating the stock of an AK-47 gives birth to a 19-inch pistol with pedigree and power. Join me in test-firing the Draco 9mm to evaluate its strengths and weaknesses.

We love putting together special packages and promotions for our customers and this one is based around one of the most popular firearms of all time, the Ruger 10/22. This is a special package we've put together for a great price. This Ruger 10/22 features a two extra BX-25 mags and is topped off with Holosun 403C green dot optic. You know where to go if you want one.

Teaser for the full length Timney Triggers Factory Tour video we posted last week. Adding a Timney trigger to your firearm is one of the best upgrades you can make. Timney produce all American products at their factory in Phoenix, Arizona.

60 round double-stacked mags are fun.

We recently stumbled upon a ridiculous AR-15 that came into the warehouse. The ATI Omni Maxx. It's a polymer AR, but it also features a translucent upper and lower. What is one great thing to do with an already ridiculous AR? Make it more ridiculous of course with accessories. There are lots of choices for accessories that could really take this AR to the next level. Let us know in the comments what you think we should add to this baby to make it the most ridiculous AR of all time!

Who wants to carry a plain old Government model when you can own a 1911 with stylish excellence? The Smith & Wesson E series is a full-sized traditional pistol that does not apologize for its size and weight. Instead, it brags about it! It is a shiny heavyweight that tames the .45 ACP cartridge and does it accurately. The GI .45 never looked this good. Is it just another pretty face, or does it have it where it counts? Join me as I examine and test this beauty.

Most people recognize the name Bushmaster Firearms, but few would recognize one of the unique designs that helped launch the company. The Bushmaster Arm Pistol was one of the first firearms that the company brought to market in 1973.

When it comes to iconic guns in history, few have ever rivaled the classic Tommy gun. I mean, who hasn’t wanted to hip-shoot a drum-fed .45 ACP “Chicago typewriter” while wearing a pinstripe suit with a Fedora hat and chomping down on a cigar? Sadly, getting your hands on an increasingly rare original is well beyond most shooter’s means. Thankfully, Auto-Ordnance offers a far more affordable alternative with its diverse line of Tommy guns like the 1927A-1. I just couldn’t resist snagging one for testing from the Guns.com Certified Used Vault when it popped up in our warehouse. Here’s what it’s really like to have one.

After well over a century of service with law enforcement across the United States, Smith & Wesson firearms are easy to find among police trade-ins. Recently, it feels like the secondhand law enforcement market has been dominated by Glocks, SIG Sauers, and the Smith & Wesson M&P series. It is refreshing to see a diverse set of vintage S&W handguns that all draw a common lineage all the way back to the Model 39. All models feature a double/single-action trigger, a safety/de-cocker, and a double-stack magazine design.

I’m a sucker for a rare old gun. I’ve had good luck finding them over the years, including a few that are one of a kind. The competition for them is stiff, though, and a buyer needs to know just how rare a gun is before bidding on it. In this series, “The Hunt for Old Guns,” we look at 19th century American firearms – the rare, the unusual, and the iconic. Today we are looking at the rarity of old guns, how it’s estimated, and how it affects firearms value. Three factors determine the rarity of antique firearms: the number produced, the number surviving, and the number available to the collecting fraternity.

The Israel Weapon Industries (IWI) Tavor is to Israel as the AR-15 is to the United States and the AK-47 to Russia. The rifle got its start in 2001 with the Israel Defense Force (IDF), and this particular configuration is an IWI Tavor IDF commemorative model similar to the original IDF contract rifle.

If the third time’s the charm, then Marlin’s freshly introduced 1894 Classic in .44 Magnum will be a real gem. The youngster has tall boots to fill, and not just because of high expectations based on previous 1894s. The latest 1894 Classic finds itself the third model reintroduction under Ruger’s tutelage, close on the heels of the 1895 in .45-70 Government and the 336 in .30-30 Winchester. Those rifles are already proving that the “new” Marlin is all business. We were lucky to get our paws on one of the first 1894s to roll off the lines in North Carolina.
