What we would do “if we had to” hopefully we’ll never have to find out. In the last edition of Recoil magazine (and perhaps elsewhere, but that’s where I found this image) KelTec suggests their ad that people who would drink their own urine also [Read More…]

George Kellgren is certainly one of the most inventive small arms designers alive today, although his company Kel-Tec has unfortunately become known for their QC troubles and availability problems more than how inspired the designs are. The latest offering from Kel-Tec [Read More…]

TheGunWriter posted up a reader’s photo of his hand after a discharge in which his hand was in the way. Likely the result of vigorous pumping and firing without thinking, the damage to the hand is catastrophic (my wife is an OT, she said he would be lucky to [Read More…]
