M1 Garand Review
Today I want to continue with the surplus rifle series I’ve been working on. So far we have been trying to stick with “budget” guns which this one really isn’t. I bought the gun for 300$ cash but that was just plain lucky. Expect to spend 800$ on up usually. Still though it’s a surplus rifle…

T-26 Tanker Garand Review
I picked up a little sweetheart a day ago. I was in my usual Johnsons Sporting goods in Adrian MI and was just about to leave. I hadn’t seen anything that caught my eye and was saying goodbye to my man Smitty in there when I turned and saw her. A Tanker Garand 🙂 I’ve always…

SlideFire Stock review
Yesterday I bought a fun little toy. I never knew about this thing but my buddy Morgan in Tennessee sent me a video of him firing what appeared to be a full auto AR. So I was understandably jealous, we can’t get hardly anything cool in Michigan. He tells me it’s a SlideFire stock. A stock designed to help…

FN Scar clone 22 cal. Review
By Cary Kieffer: This morning I want to go over a recent impulse purchase of mine. I was at a local sporting goods store and picked up a 22 LR clone of an FN SCAR. It was on sale for 399$ and I thought what the heck, it looks fun and I have only handled…

Best Budget Pistol Ever? Ruger P95
Today I want to discuss the Ruger P95 9mm pistol. I’ll say this for the record – I think it to be the very BEST full size handgun on the market FOR THE MONEY! If you are on a budget as most people are, I can’t think of a single thing I’d consider buying over a Ruger P95.…

Weapon Lights review
If you’ve read very many of my articles then you may have noticed what an ardent supporter I am of weapon lights. Aside from a quality, clean loaded weapon that I have trained with it’s the most important tool you can have. I have used them for real world combat and law enforcement duties way…

Ruger MK 3 22/45 Review
In 1949 my Great Grandfather Lynn, who I had the luck of having around well into my teens, bought a Ruger MK 1 in the local hardware store for 32$. I remember the old man plinking away with it when I was a kid and I was always excited when it came out. I have…

Surplus rifles Part 2 303 British Enfield
Next on the list is a No.4 Enfield 303 rifle. This was the work horse of the British forces in WW2. I understand they had a sniper version that served them well for several decades later. They have a boatload of models and variants, from cheap to very expensive for collectors. I personally have been…

Surplus Rifles Part 1 Mosin Nagant m91
I decided to do a series of surplus rifle reviews. There’s a lot of WW2 era center-fire military rifles out there for cheap, Mausers, Mosin Nagants, Enfields and Carcano’s to name some. I wanted to start with the Mosin Nagant 91.

Smith Wesson MP 9mm compact
This morning up for review is the Smith & Wesson M&P series 9mm subcompact. I’m not really an M&P fan but I will give it a non biased rundown. There’s really nothing wrong with it and it is just a matter of the way it fits in my hand and the grip angle isn’t…

Millet LRS-1 Review
Tonite I’m going to go over the Millet LRS-1 tactical rifle scope. I bought one a month or so ago as a cheaper alternative to another Leupold. I don’t remember exactly what I spent but I bought the scope, low mount tactical rings and a 20 MOA Millet base and as I recall it was…

Rock River ATH Carbine Review
Tonite I will discuss my Rock River ATH Carbine. I have a couple other Rock’s but this is my favorite one, I actually clean this one:) It was made to be a “premium” rifle I would call it with many upgrades and more accurate than your regular m4 style rifles.

Mossberg 590 Review
This afternoon I want to go over the Mossberg 590 A1 combat shotgun. Not only the weapon itself but the overall usefulness of any “gauge” in MIL or LE use.

Dirty Harry Classic: The Smith 29 44 mag
This time we have the Original Dirty Harry gun up for review. Mine is an early 70’s gun in mint condition. 6 round cylinder, the square butt wood grips and a 6 inch barrel and adjustable sights, Dirty Harry all the way. I gave $575 for the Smith 29 out the door. I am very happy…
