What does the double-action revolver have in common with the lever-action rifle or tube-magazine shotgun? I mean besides being elegant firearms from a more civilized era. The answer is they all have relatively limited ammunition capacity and require specialized skills to manage ammunition and reload most efficiently, relative to their more modern, removable-magazine-fed semi-automatic successors.

Nothing stays the same. Tastes change, forgotten things are remembered and pendulums swing back. Nothing but quality, that is. When polymer pistols hit the market, everyone seemed to forget that metal—especially aluminum—had advantages. Some are re-learning that, others have never forgotten. Read More

Recently, while exploring the local gun show, I picked up some reasonably priced 7.62 NATO training ammunition manufactured by DAG in Germany. Little did I realize, until I got home and opened the box, that the cartridges were all plastic—bullets and all—apart from the bases where the primers are located. Read More

"The military handguns adopted by the Berlin government in the 1870s are distinguished by their unimportance," said Dr. Edward C. Ezell, curator of the Armed Forces History Division of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History in his book, "Handguns of the World." My late friend and mentor, Dr. Ezell, was writing about the lack of panache evident in the German revolver designs following the Franco-Prussian War of 1871... Read More

I recently won a voucher in a class taught by Riley T. Bowman for a holster from KSG Armory, and I had designs on choosing a KSG Lexington. The Lexington holster is one of KSG Armory's flagship AIWB (appendix inside-the-waistband) concealment holsters, but I held off for months as I wasn't sure what handgun fit I wanted for the holster.

The concealed-carry world is interesting. For the longest time, the smallest guns available were five-shot revolvers and micro-380 ACP semi-autos. Sure, there were a handful of very small 9 mm pistols like the Kahr CM9 and the Rohrbaugh R9, but for the most part, KelTec's P32 and P3AT and Smith & Wesson's J-frame revolver were the small-gun choices.
