When Ruger bought the intellectual property and hard assets to Marlin at auction back in 2020, it was a calculated risk. The brand is still beloved by many lever-gun connoisseurs, but its reputation had taken a beating in recent years, and Ruger was betting on the belief that it could right the ship and return the Marlin name to a place of standing within the industry. If the first Ruger-made Marlin rifle is any indication, that bet has paid off big. Read More

At 5' 7", I'm often the brunt of my buddies' best attempts at little-guy humor. Sure, a few inches more would be nice, but being short has its advantages. For example, I typically get the first crack at helicopter hunts because a whirlybird gets rather tight, particularly when you need to bring a rifle up with you. The same can be said for hunting blinds. Read More

The year 2023 might well end up being "The Year of the 2011." Several manufacturers have recently entered the niche of M1911-style handguns that combines a hybrid metal-and-polymer frame with a double-stack magazine, a style known as a "2011." The latest is European American Armory Corp. with the Witness 2311. Read More

Today, we're on the range with a uniquely finished Ruger Mk IV 22/45 Lite. This, of course, is another Davidson's Exclusive, which means that this configuration can only be ordered from the company's Gallery Of Guns or one of its nationwide network of retailers. Davidson's is one of the largest firearm distributors in the world, and because of that, it develops special models with different manufacturers, bringing unique one-offs to market that you won't see anywhere else. Of all manufacturers, though, Davidson's has a particularly productive relationship with Ruger, and the result of that is an incredible assortment of unique designs. One of those designs is this Mk IV 22/45 Lite pistol. Watch the Gun Of The Week video above to see the Ruger in use. Read More

Not long ago, I encountered a very interesting used gun for sale and have been curious about its authenticity ever since. My first judgement, due to my ignorance of its existence, was that the used bullpup shotgun was, in fact, a kit gun someone had assembled from aftermarket parts. And considering how strong the aftermarket is for Mossberg Model 500 shotguns, I was certain that had to be the case. Read More
