For Wheelgun Wedesday I present the Mateba Unica 6. The revolver that the Chiappa Rhino was based upon. For those not familiar with Ghisoni’s work go check out matebafan.com for more info and video. TYPE: Double-action/single action semi-automatic revolver [Read More…]
Every now and again we get user submitted photos with no information past who the photos are of. This happens to be one of those instances, sadly we have no information as to where the match was held, what is going on with their firearms, or who won. The photos were [Read More…]
For those who already know what this is, good for you. I missed out on this silliness back in 2012. For those like me who have not seen this before, this is a double finger trigger. You may be scratching your head as to why someone would want this on their AR15. The [Read More…]
This picture shows factory ported Glock pistols. The two most common are the C model pistols which you can see int he photo above as the one on the bottom. The other two are somewhat uncommon. The Glock on the top is a Gen 1 Glock 17L with an optional factory three port [Read More…]
I recently purchased a used Glock 17C for a reasonable price. I got it just as a novelty and possibly for Action Match shooting. Since I have been playing around with PCC and Open Division handguns with compensators I wanted to see what the Glock 17C could do. I was [Read More…]
War History Online posted this photo on their Facebook page. 26-inch thick armor from Japanese Yamato class battleship, pierced by a US Navy 16-inch gun. The armor is on display at the US Navy Museum. I found this Ballistic Test Report which I believe to be about this [Read More…]
Jürgen Schrott took this photo. ?? Kurze Browning Auto-5 Selbstladeflinte im Kaliber 12/70. ?? I love buying old, no longer used shotguns (dirt cheep, too) and getting them in shape so that everybody at the range ogles them ?. Just by replacing some worn/broken parts I [Read More…]
Photo by @jim_guns. More Armalite 180 love. This AR180 is using a NoDak SPUD lower with a Nikon fixed power P223 3×32 scope. The black background is eye catching due to the lighting. I was told it is a trashbag.
This AR-180B originally had a polymer lower receiver. However it has been updated with a NoDak SPUD AR-180 billet lower receiver. The polymer lowers can break from hard use so a metal replacement is a much needed upgrade. The receiver is threaded for AR buffer tubes [Read More…]
This collection of revolvers belongs to @ahare19 on Instagram. This is what he posted: I promised a Colt wheel this week, here is a few of my Colt originals and reproductions. Can you name them all??! That is quite a collection. It seems he is a revolver enthusiast and [Read More…]
This photo shows what looks like a Ares Shrike AR broken down in a custom insert violin case. Notice the ammo belt nicely stowed in its own compartment. The velvet lined cut out looks very plush for this belt fed weapon. Just make sure the gun has cooled down before [Read More…]
This photo is of some Korean Special Forces. It looks like they are using HK MP5SDs however if you look more closely the front sight is wrong. In fact this is a Daewoo Telecom K7. It is an interesting mutation of an AR style receiver but right away you start to see [Read More…]
Here are some pretty spectacular photos I managed to take during the European Handgun Championship 2016 (IPSC) that only recently finished in Hungary. Rolf Lönn started shooting 1979 and has won both the Swedish and the Nordic Championships in IPSC Senior and Super [Read More…]
While I was pulling up some information on the Glock 19 for the review we just posted, I stumbled across this monstrosity. The pumpkin pie Glock looks to be a rather well abused Gen 3 gun with one of the worst stipple jobs I have ever seen, or are those teeth marks? To [Read More…]
There are so many ways to carry a handgun. Many people like carrying behind the back as it is very comfortable. Some carry outside the waistband and some carry inside. As we all know there are a plethora of holsters to fit any and all requirements one needs. However [Read More…]
Ian S. experienced quite a shock when his FNP tactical exploded. FN Tactical blew up on me today. Appears to have not been completely in battery so either really dirty or a high primer. Hands are burnt and really bruised but not bad considering. Also, +1 for eye pro. [Read More…]
I was re-watching Pixar’s Cars 2 the other night. I never noticed this before but there is a gun reference in that movie. The character Rod Torque Redline is an American Spy who infiltrated a secret organization. The bad guys have roughed him up a bit and like in [Read More…]
TFB has reported about the brand new CZ Shadow 2 both once and twice before. The first time when it was released to the press and later when it was released at IWA in Germany 2016. Here it can be seen in action at a recent IPSC Handgun match in Sweden, ONYX 2016. I [Read More…]
My friend at MAGPUL posted this picture up. It is a new style of DAKA pouch specifically for suppressors. No word on when they will be available but I suspect they will be soon since it is a simple affair to cut them and weld them.
Today’s photo is a 7.5″ 300 Blackout. AR-15 format, but Low Visibility Gear and a lot of fun to shoot. AAC’s “Honey Badger” did play a part as a role model for this rifle (it’s not a “pistol”), and there’s a B&T [Read More…]
Thanks to Lionel for sending these picture to us. At ARMYA 2016 Kalashnikov Concern presented their new hardware. We had the chance to attend a presentation at a Russian Army firing range. Below are some pictures of the new weapons. The guns were presented by the [Read More…]
The German Police are bringing back an oldie but goodie for self protection. Chainmail. Due to the rise in machete and axe attacks, some police are donning a tried and true method to protect themselves. It definitely looks cool and functional for this fall season!
Saw this posted on Facebook. To the props/weapons master: You had one job. Now to be fair the actress or possibly extra might have been directed to do a mag change and clearly does not know how an MP5 is supposed to work or its magazine. Someone thought this might be [Read More…]
This amazing photo was taken by Jeff W. of Parabellum Combat Systems. Parabellum Combat makes MP5s. Pretty good MP5s from what I hear. The photo above shows an MP5 with an SD handguard and Knights Armament suppressor.
The Type 73 looks somewhat like North Korea’s attempt at copying the Bren LMG with a lot of influence from the Russian PK guns. Here is another photo that looks like it might be taken from the same photo shoot. I wonder how the sights work? Are they offset so they [Read More…]
Here is a photo of my friend Brian M. at the recent 2016 FN 3Gun Match. He made the muzzle brake himself. I just happened to capture the right moment and the muzzle flash. He is engaging some paper targets at about 20 yards using a Sig Romeo 3 red dot sight.
Great photo by Empty Shell LLC of their Micro Gun sitting in a pile of links. I would happily take on the sacrifice to aid in the creating of this endeavor. How do we know if those are just a pile of new links or fired links? They should do this picture again on video [Read More…]
PFC Coatings took apart a SCAR 17S to coat it with FDE Gun Kote. According to their Instagram page, there is something missing in this photo. They have not commented on what that is. Can you tell what is missing?
Chad Enos of Kel-Tec is posing with his Gen 2 Sub2000. It has a red dot and Kel-Tec flashlight attached to the side. I like the framing of the side view mirror so you can see what he is aiming at. It is clever mise-en-scène.
I mounted the brand new Zeiss V8 4.8-35×60 on a rifle (Ruger Precision Rifle) and wanted to see how it behaved in twilight and darkness. On a fairly clear night, there were some light, thin clouds, I pointed the setup towards the moon. I have to say I’m very [Read More…]
