Kahr Arms has partnered with LAN World to introduce Auto Ordnance's Thompson style rifles to California. To make them CA legal a Bullet Button device will be fitted by LAN World and they will only be supplied with 10 round magazines. The Bullet Button prevents the magazine removal without a tool (which in this case is a bullet tip). Even a 10 round drum mag will be available!
Next year H&K will be introducing a new translucent polymer AR-15 magazine to the market.

Here’s our intrepid Mr. Hollister, apparently ready to defend his right to wear a skirt kilt to work
It finally make sense why those crazy US Army tankers invented the M1028 canister round

Solider System saw a demonstration of Federal's new line of pistol ammunition ...
The ammo is available in 9mm, .40, .45, and .357 SIG, however the SIG round is too fast, and as a result doesn’t fully open during penetration.
Both the Ruger LCR and LCR 357 pack quite a punch. Sadly physics does allow weight to be decreased without felt recoil increasing.
Michael Bane makes the sensible recommendation that recoil sensitive shooters should buy the LCR 357 instead of the standard LCR because it is 26% heavier. Loading it with softer .38 Special rounds will be more comfortable than shooting the standard LCR with .38 Special ammo. Michael says ...
If you're at all recoil-sensitive, I strongly suggest you chose the 17.1 ounce .357 over the regular 13.5 ounce .38, then shoot .38s in the heavier LCR. I shot 158-gr Hornady .38+P self defense loads in the .357 and it was controllable and painless. Regular .38s would be downright pleasant to shoot,. I'd kill to have one of these in .22LR (take note, Ruger...pleeeeeeeease...).
Earlier this year I wrote about the nifty new Zel-Custom bipod that could swivel right around the barrel axis. The bipod's creator, David Kohnow, has developed a new bipod with a half-trunnion design that saves weight and allows it to be used on a variety of weapon systems.

I have blogged about AK-47 guitars before, but this is the first one that is actually made from a real AK.

Andre, of Tactical-Life.com, visited the Kel-Tec factory to try out the Kel-Tec PMR-30 .22 Magnum pistol and sub-machine gun.
I visited Kel-Tec CNC Industries in Cocoa, Florida to shoot their newest pistol, the PMR-30 and to demo their full-auto tactical variant. The PMR-30 is a lightweight, full-size pistol chambered for the flat-shooting .22Magnum cartridge (.22WMR). The PMR-30 operates on a unique hybrid blowback/locked-breech system, allowing for the use of a wide variety of ammunition as it seamlessly adjusts between locked breach and blowback operation, depending on the pressure of the cartridge.

Jeff Quinn, of Gun Blast, also had a play with the PMR-30 ...
