If I had to use one sentence to describe the modern firearm landscape in the U.S., the thread title would be it. By the way, I would include myself in this category, sadly. It is just an observation, and it does not apply to all, so do not take offense or become defensive, as I'm as likely...

Sights falling off, jam-o-matic session while training and safety selector switches falling completely off - what's not to love? This same agency also swapped out their Sig 552 rifles, proclaiming them unreliable, essentially. And OT, but check out the sweet deals the officers get when...

Let me interject what admittedly might be a factually fallacious statement, in an emphatic manner, just to stir the debate of the merits (if any) of a chrome lined bcg (including a chrome lined gas key) - I don't think there are any advantages. There. (I saw this issue raised on another...

After inserting a PMAG full of 5.56, I find that a less than very robust pull and release of the charging handle does not get a round to chamber, and the bolt carrier group fails to go fully into 'battery,' so to speak. Is this normal? A robust pull and release of the charging handle...

Who here has run any of the PMC X-Tact Green Tip 5.56 through your ARs, and what was the accuracy and reliability like? They had a sale at Palmetto Armory on this stuff lately. It also says 'semi-steel' penetrator. When I did a little research, it seemed that most of the feedback was...

First, the LMT is nice. For an AR/M4 of combat grade, it's a very nicely put together rifle. From some of the consumer available M4gerys I've handled (after being issued a Colt M16A2 for some time), the LMT is right up there with Colt, IMO, my .02, YMMV and so forth. The LMT rear sight is...

I had used a Colt for years, and to be honest, for all the crap I've been reading lately, the Colt was extremely durable and robust. I am floored by my new LMT with the SOPMOD stock. The ergos, fit and finish, barrel quality - it's outstanding. Time to get to an outdoor range and zero it...

If anyone asks you why you feel the need to carry, show them an article that is simply a factual recitation of someone who was maimed or murdered. I'll start this off with an article about this guy who was executed, gun to the head, in broad daylight, because some scumbags wanted his car, and...

Posted because I know many here are looking, and they're in short supply. I have ZERO connection with seller. http://www.centerfiresystems.com/sig-238380hd.aspx Sig Sauer P238 .380 ACP Stainless Steel Semi-Auto #SIG-238380HD Price: $516.99 Part Number: SIG-238380HD

Sucks to be me right now. If a mod wants to delete this pathetic, wallowing in own tears, sad specimen of a man crying over spilled milk, be my guest. :D http://www.centerfiresystems.com/kahr-kp9093a.aspx Kahr Arms K9 Model 9mm Matte Stainless Steel Frame 3.5" #KAHR-KP9093A...

First, mods please move this to the right spot if this is the wrong one, and my apologies in advance. Second, a big thanks to shockwave here on THR, who introduced me to Hickok45 (his videos). The guy's a phenomenal shot and humble guy with a friendly and practical way about him. He's literally...

...I'd like to see it. I couldn't grip the Kahr PM9 grip as comfortably, and the same is true of the Keltec PF9. The Ruger LCP (although it's in .380) felt like a toy and was way too small to even think about being comfortable with - for me, not knocking the firearm at all. The CW9 just...

They can be had NIB now for around $300 after a $50 TC rebate. They have a guarantee on MOA out of the box of 1" or less. I've read conflicting things about them after some research, so I thought I should ask the members here who have them, have had them, or have spent time with them...

Primary and simple factors in order of importance are: 1) Reliability 2) Concealability 3) Durability

Anyone have an opinion on whether this is a quality unit? I'm thinking of building my own AR now, because I'm a picky prick. Thanks. http://www.palmettostatearmory.com/1560.php

"The main change was replacing the main portion of the rifle with a new component that contains a short stroke piston gas system (to reduce buildup of carbon inside the rifle) and a heavier (by 142 gr/five ounces) barrel."...

I was always ambivalent about the M16/AR15 series for two reasons: 1) I never warmed to the cartridge. Yes, it was extremely accurate, but it was not as effective in anything in ideal environments as far older and far more hard hitting rounds fielded by the U.S. Military. 2) I never warmed...
