Ceska Zbrojovka introduced the CZ 600 line of bolt action rifles back in the fall of 2021. Fast forward three years and CZ is releasing an improved version of their centerfire bolt gun - the CZ 600+ ERGO DRIVEN HUNT. Some of the new features of the upgraded rifle are the new magazine pattern, user-replaceable barrel, fluted bolt and extended scope rail.

FN have announced the introduction of a .300 Blackout chambered addition to their FN SCAR 15P range of pistols, the civilian version of the FN SCAR-SC personal defense weapon. The 15P was announced back in 2022 and we got our hands on one to review in September 2023. The new SCAR pistols will be available in black and flat dark earth finishes and have been optimized for .300BLK with a gas regulator with settings for subsonic and supersonic ammunition, a .30 caliber flash hider and a dedicated magazine.

The Masterkey under-barrel shotgun is famous from video games and films alike. Unfortunately, it's a difficult gun to obtain for anyone wanting their own example. The new KTMS 12-gauge from Tyr1 Outfitters is changing that, a turn-key Masterkey (pun intended) for the public.

Pulsar has announced its first HD-resolution thermal imaging rifle scope, the Thermion 2 LRF XL50 1.75-14x 1024 HD. The Lithuanian company promises a wide field of view and detailed images, even at 14x magnification, with built-in technology making it easier than ever to not only see your target but reach out and touch it as well.

After hearing that I’d recently gotten a .44 Magnum Desert Eagle, my fellow writer Luke C. sent me a couple of night sights to slap on and test out. My favorites were the XS Sights R3D 2.0; they’re 100% better than the stock black sights for several reasons.

Are you an avid cigar smoker and a firearms aficionado? Well, then a company called Stogie Mag has the perfect accessory for you – a rifle magazine-shaped humidor! Not only it’s shaped like a magazine but also constructed and functions like one (the cigars are loaded and unloaded like cartridges). The Stogie Mag humidor can hold six cigars with dimensions of up to 5.25x50. The humidifier pack is located inside the follower and the Stogie Mag comes with a sealing top cover.

Welcome back to another edition of Concealed Carry Corner. Last week, we talked about red dots on carry guns and why they are a benefit to certain shooters. If you happened to miss that article, be sure to click the link here to check it out. This week, I want to talk about a common problem I see a ton of shooters both new and experienced fight to have the correct balance of speed versus accuracy. Some will go too fast and miss their shots while others will have perfect hits but will take way too long to make their shots. So what's the solution? Let's take a closer look at the constant battle between speed and accuracy.

Let’s get the elephant out of the room immediately: no, the pistol does not have “Grip Zone” printed on it (I think Springfield would sell 10x more if they did, but I digress). The new Springfield Armory XD Mod.3 touts improved stippling throughout the frame, better cocking serrations on the slide, and an optics cut as well making it an appealing new offering at a sticker price of only $325.

Remington Ammunition has a new ammo option for .22 LR. The Ranch Hand ammunition family feature copper-plated lead bullets and, and Remington advertises flawless feeding in both rifles and handguns with this ammo type. It is also ideal for small game and varmint hunting.

The HiPoint YC-380 is here! In this comprehensive range review,  @JamesReeves  takes the Hi-Point YC-380 'Yeet Cannon' .380 out for a full test. Known for its controversial name and budget price, the Yeet Cannon has become a staple of internet firearm memes. But how does it really perform at the range? We put this .380 ACP through its paces to see if it's reliable, accurate, and worth the price. Watch for a breakdown of its features, performance, and our final thoughts on whether the Yeet Cannon lives up to the hype!

Riton is following up on their recent release of the 1 Tactix ARD 2 red dot sight with an appropriate companion if you want to stretch things out a little further downrange. 3 Tactix 3X Magnifier has quick detach capability and a spring-loaded push button flip-away function. If you can appreciate simplicity in a small lightweight package at a price that’s easy on the wallet, keep reading.

With the recent news of Hurricane Helene and talk of another already hitting roughly the same region, natural disaster preparedness has been on virtually everyone’s mind. While there isn’t much that can be prepared for now when it comes to the ongoing disaster situation in the southeast, we can always run our minds through similar sets of circumstances for our own areas to make sure we’re prepared. Naturally, all of us here at The Firearm Blog think firearms should be an integrated part of your natural disaster preparedness plans, and today we’ll hear from Sam and Cameron about what guns they typically have on hand when it comes to natural disasters in their areas.

In Part 1 of this article, I wrote about the beginning of the Kalashnikov machinegun story, Part 2 was dedicated to the bureaucratic hoops he initially had to jump through, Part 3 described the technical triаls and competition between the Kalashnikov and his rivals, Nikitin and Sokolov. In this chapter, I will go into the story of troop trials that determined the destiny of Kalashnikov GPMG.

For today’s Photo Of The Day, we have pictures of the latest project by Cabot Guns, the Yin & Yang set of 1911 pistols. As its name implies, this set is built with Yin Yang motifs - the colors of the pistols and their triggers, the design of the wooden case they are shipped in, etc. There will be only seven of these pistol sets made. The price of the Cabot Guns Yin & Yang set is $25,000.

Everybody wants to own something unique when it comes to our firearm collections. We all may own the “common ones” - an 870, 10/22, etc, [insert your fave generic gun here] - but we also want to have some style, pizzaz, and flavor as well. That is where people seek out items like a Davidson’s Exclusive to set themselves apart from the rest of their shooting cadre. Being as we are all wheelgun loving folk, we will take a look at 4 special revolvers that you can’t get anywhere else than Davidson featuring Heritage Manufacturing Inc. Let’s dive in!

The Great Canadian Gun Grab continues to move forward, with the federal government spending millions on planning to seize a list of arbitrarily prohibited firearms (mostly semi-auto rifles) from law-abiding shooters and collectors. But there’s a new obstacle for the feds to overcome now. The provinces don’t necessarily want to play ball with the federal government’s plans. A recent communication from the Chief Firearms Officer of Saskatchewan makes it clear that, for now, the leadership there isn’t on board with the seizures.
