Jacob Grey TWC Black Review

I’ve been a little late jumping on the 2011 bandwagon. While the gun industry has been riding a 2011 resurgence over the past few years, I’ve been content to stick with my tried-and-true handguns—like a Glock.

Ruger RXM: In-Depth Review

Review: Fabrique Nationale M249

When Fabrique Nationale (FN) first dropped the bombshell that they were releasing the M249S—a semi-auto variant of the U.S. military’s beloved M249 Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW)—the reaction was as mixed as a bag of surplus 5.56 rounds.
