Similar to X-Ray Guns, someone took their lower receiver and X-Rayed it. However this is a polymer lower. It almost looks invisible in the X-Ray image. I am surprised at the position of the buffer retainer. Look at how far forward it is canted. Perhaps that is just a [Read More…]
Andrew of GY6 Vids is at it again. After his video of the DRT .308win Terminal Shock Ammo, Andrew received comments and requests to do it again this time with .223 and shooting it at different barriers before hitting ballistics gelatin. Like the previous video about the [Read More…]
There have been some hilarious memes of the Dalai Lama related to firearms popping up lately. They are obviously taken out of context but the image does match the meme’s idea. Only one of these is a real quote by the Dalai Lama. Can you figure out which one it is? [Read More…]
Thanks to Enzo for sending this our way. Waffenschmiedin x builds an 1880 Single Action Revolver from a piece of 4140 steel that was heat treated to a rockwell hardness of 27-33. She makes the entire revolver including the screws from this piece of metal. Better yet she [Read More…]

I came across this interesting suppressor in a post about the Stone Mountain Machine Gun Shoot. Alpha Dog Silencers will be there and having a raffle. I was more intrigued by their design. They have added a picatinny rail onto their silencer. Now we have seen useless [Read More…]
I thought this was rather funny. The guy taking the photo is holding a box of blank 5.56 ammo. She has ZERO idea on why she can’t hit the target!!! I would do this to my friends. haha. Have you played any safe pranks on friends at the range?

Found this photo on social media. The watermark looks to be from Zahal, an Israeli website for tactical gear and accessories. The top two X95s are just your ordinary Micro Tavors. They have 13″ barrels and come in FDE or Black. The third X95 down is the integrally [Read More…]
Down at Big 3 East, last March, IWI USA VP Mike Kassnar, set aside fifty X95s for the writers in attendance. I eagerly jumped at the opportunity to get my hands on the X95 for review. I have only had a little trigger time behind the older Tavor SAR. I recall one of my [Read More…]
Bob posted this slow motion video of his friend Andy shooting a suppressed Sig P226. The brass ejects and bounces off what looks like a sign attached to the end of the concrete bay wall before bouncing off the wall and into the trash can next to Andy. According to Bob, [Read More…]
Thanks to George for sending this our way. You don’t see this every day… so I thought it was worth sharing with you. This beautiful couple came to Point Blank Range in Matthews today, to do some shooting. The crafty young man hung up the target with the [Read More…]
5.11 and Kyle Lamb talk about a possibility where taking cover behind the V of the car can be dangerous if not using all the cover available. Bullets can skip off the hood of a car and hit a target in the thoracic cavity. So you are best to lower yourself and decrease [Read More…]
Syvat sent this in to us. He asked the guy, that he got it from, what it was from. The anonymous guy said it is a a secret. Syvat thinks it is perhaps a customized AR lower. Anyone know Cyrilic? What do the markings say?
Thanks to Jeremy of Minnesota for sharing this picture with us. This was my first AKM build from a parts kit. I was drawn to the AMD-65 because of the muzzle break and that it was distinctly different than other models. I started the project knowing enough to be [Read More…]

FourGuysGuns take a Suppressed SBR SCAR16S and bump fire it with a Magpul D60 drum mag feeding it. It is rather impressive the rate of fire they are getting out of this SCAR16S. I wonder what trigger they are running? Possibly a Geissele? I do not think you can get this [Read More…]
Jim sent this pic to us. Just check out that 1000 yard stare in that Chihuahua. The Sig MPX is a pistol with a SB Tactical brace. The MPX is sporting a Silencer Co Osprey and Streamlight as well as a Savy Sniper Sling. That feeling when your #Chihuahua is more #operator [Read More…]
Police in the UK are using chainsaws to help breach doors. Some of you may ask: “Why not use a shotgun or a battering ram?” Good question. Firearms and police are touchy subjects in the UK. So they opt for a less lethal method in this case. Why not a [Read More…]
So this guy is testing what looks to be a 1911 with laser. I am assuming possibly a Kimber with factory Crimson Trace? Well regardless of the make and model, the shooter clearly does not have a grasp of the Firearm Rules of Safety. ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe [Read More…]
This was posted in a gun group on Social Media. They were shot at 7.5 yards. While not terribly challenging it does require some amount of skill. Especially in recovering them after being shot. The .45acp brass was pushed into the holes of a cardboard target and shot at [Read More…]
I laughed when I saw this photo. Imagining the owner shouting at his gun to eat its food is hilarious. The owner was having magazine issues. It almost looks staged, like he just poured ammo into the ejection port and took a picture. This feeding malfunction looks [Read More…]
The past two Big 3 East media events have had a grand finale of blowing up a car. This past event in March they blew up two cars. USA Chemical Supply is the company that supplied and sponsored the event with their exploding binary targets. Why should you care? Because [Read More…]
Tactical Universal Clip posted this on their Facebook page and they are proud of it. I get it, the product has its uses. But c’mon, this? This is just wrong. Sure it is a neat idea to be able to hang your AR on the back of your tactical vest. But one simple [Read More…]
I got my hands on a Cosmic X Liberty suppressor from Silencer Shop to try out on my Glock 41 and Glock 21. I am using a Lone Wolf threaded barrel for my Glock 41 and Glock 21. As you can see from the photo above, the Cosmic is rather long. It is longer than […] [Read More…]

Shane posted this in a Facegroup Page to show the kind of garbage that shows up in his local area. George Yanosh is trying to trade his modified Hipoint 9. He says he undercut the trigger guard. I don’t think it means what he think it means. LOL He did not [Read More…]
Andrew of GY6 Vids compares the Glock 43 to the Springfield XDS 9mm. Andrew mentions that many people like to compare the M&P Shield to the Glock 43 but they are not the same sized gun. He is right, the Shield is a slightly bigger weapon compared to the Glock 43. [Read More…]
