Walther PPS M2 Review

Wed, 12/21/2016 - 09:00

It’s a real shame that the Walther PPS is perhaps the most overlooked single stack pistol, because it’s really a great choice for concealed carry. I’ve carried the original Walther PPS (M1) in .40 S&W for several years now.  I’ve carried that handgun so much that the finish is mostly worn off the slide revealing

Lowrance Hook-9: Mega Screen, Mini Price

Tue, 12/20/2016 - 09:00
