Mad Pig Customs cerakoted this Maxim9 for Capitol Armory. As you can see it has a P-51B from the 51st fighter group theme. My only critique is that it looks like the mouth design won’t work if the owner of this Maxim9 wants to remove the baffle and make the Maxim9 [Read More…]

As I prepare to become two years older since the day I decided to invest in an MP5SD from TPM Outfitters (and I still don’t have it in hand), I find myself staring longingly at pictures of random MP5s and other H&K clones. Don’t feel bad for me (I knew [Read More…]

SilencerCo has upped their status in outrageous stunts. Parachuting from the sky with silenced weapons and shooting them. My hat is off to you. This looks like a lot of fun. DISCLAIMER: Ever wonder what it would be like to shoot under canopy? We did, so we teamed [Read More…]
The Ruger 22/45 Lite Mark III is one of the best suppressor hosts that you could buy, and it makes for a pretty awesome lightweight .22 LR pistol.

The Silencerco rebate started on February 1st was meant to run only until April 30th. Silencerco has had a change of heart and is now extending their $200 tax rebate all the way through June 30th, 2017. A lot of people were upset when they read the fine print of [Read More…]
We’ve been reading and seeing a fair amount about the Maxim 9 from SilencerCo for the past few years. The time has finally come where their first pistol, an integrally suppressed 9mm pistol made from all SilencerCo parts, is now available for sale with an MSRP of [Read More…]

Warning: This post may contain slight whining, begging, or pleading for said part. Before Silencerco bought out SWR, one of the QD attachments available was the ASR flash hider as seen above. It was discontinued years ago and remains a bit of unobtainium that rarely [Read More…]

I love photos like this. Disassembled guns with all the parts exposed. I wonder if this was photoshopped like J.W. Ramp’s AK47 or if they physically suspended all the parts like the Glock 43 and just photoshopped the strings away?
