  • Smith and Wesson M1917 Revolver

    Smith and Wesson M1917 Revolver

    The Smith and Wesson M1917 revolver is an oddity; a wheel-gun chambered in an auto cartridge. It’s a military arm with a long and storied past. How much history? Well, mine is 98 years old. It’s so old that Smith and Wesson doesn’t even have web page for it. The closest thing you can find…

  • Spikes Tactical / Green Mountain barrel AR Pistol Build

    Spikes Tactical / Green Mountain barrel AR Pistol Build

    By: Cary Kieffer I know you give up some velocity but I really like the AR pistol idea. They are obviously shorter, lighter and to a lot of people handier. Especially when turning corners in a building or getting out of a vehicle. To me the best part is I get rifle like performance from…

  • Serbian Zastava PAP M92 Mods and Range Report

    Serbian Zastava PAP M92 Mods and Range Report

    By: Cary Kieffer Here is a transformation of a Serbian PAP M92 pistol into something a bit more usable. I’m not really a big AK fan but I’ve had enough of them shot at me that I wanted a couple in the collection. So here is my “tacti-coolest” one.

  • Springfield TRP 45 Super Review

    Springfield TRP 45 Super Review

    By:  Cary Kieffer A while back I picked up a Springfield custom shop TRP Operator with the monolithic rail. I love the full length rail and the weapon is gorgeous and built to last. I was in my local dealer Johnson’s Sporting Goods in Adrian MI, they had a mint in box one come in…

  • LAR Grizzly MK IV 44 Magnum Review

    LAR Grizzly MK IV 44 Magnum Review

    By: Cary Kieffer Long since out of production, I finally brought home an LAR MK IV Grizzly 44 Magnum! I’ve wanted one of these so bad..I’ve written letters to LAR twice with no reply, my “texter” went off at work a few weeks ago and here she is, my Grizzly 44!

  • North American Arms NAA Pug 22 WMR Review

    North American Arms NAA Pug 22 WMR Review

    By: Cary Kieffer I finally got my NAA Pug, a few years ago I did short reviews on my 2 NAA mini revolvers, I ended up giving them both away as gifts. I always wanted to pick up another one, the model known as NAA Pug in 22 WMR was the one I had my…

  • Glock 17 w/ Endo Tactical Adapter, Shockwave Pistol Blade Review

    Glock 17 w/ Endo Tactical Adapter, Shockwave Pistol Blade Review

      By: Cary Kieffer I have built several AR pistols up with the Shockwave Pistol Blade kits, I feel they look nicer than the Sig Brace, they are cheaper and are more easily adjustable with dimples in the buffer tube it comes with for a set screw. So, when I saw this kit for a Glock…

  • EAA Witness Elite Stock III Review

    EAA Witness Elite Stock III Review

    By: Cary Kieffer   I’ve always been a fan of Witness pistols, the CZ style pistols for me have excellent point ability. They just seem to naturally line up for me fast and shoot very good groups. I also am a die hard fan of the 38 Super, so the two together made it impossible…

  • PSA 9mm AR Pistol Build Review

    By: Cary Kieffer Did you ever want an AR in 9mm? I did and for a lot of reasons they make sense. Generally, I am a Rock River and SIG 516 fan and they make up the bulk of my rifles. I did want to build a budget beater PSA 9mm AR and preserve my…

  • Kimber K6s Revolver Review

    Kimber K6s Revolver Review

    Kimber introduced the new K6s Revolver at SHOT Show 2016 and Tactical Gun Review was there to try it out first-hand.  Kimber had a booth at Range Day and it was a beautiful, if windy, day at the Boulder Pistol and Rifle Club.  Jason and I headed over to Kimber soon after arriving to see…

  • Glock grip work by H&N arms

    Glock grip work by H&N arms

    Like most shooters I’m a big fan of Glocks. Ease of maintenance, spare parts and reliability make it a no brainer. So when SureFire came out with the new XC-1 light I figured a new G19 was the answer. Like a lot of people I have a list of mods I like to do to…

  • Kimber Warrior is a 1911 win

    Kimber Warrior is a 1911 win

    There are some guns that just feel absolutely perfect from the second you pick it up. The weight, the balance, the grip, everything about it just feels like it was made for you. This is how I felt when I first held the Kimber Warrior.

  • EDC

    EDC

    Everyday carry (EDC) is a topic of conversation that can you get you into an argument quicker than politics or religion. With so many options on the market, the possibilities seem endless, and can be overwhelming for the unprepared. However, unlike some, I believe there is no one perfect firearm for EDC that fits all…

  • EAA Witness P-Carry 10mm: Nice but NOT My Bear Gun

    EAA Witness P-Carry 10mm: Nice but NOT My Bear Gun

    So my girlfriend is a stick n string bear hunter. Me, I’ll pass on that craziness. I told her I’d back her up with my M-1 Garand and a Ruger 454 across my chest with a couple speedloaders and en-bloc clips in my pocket. So we have this black bear hunting trip planned and I wanted…
