New 1. 2. 3. Done! Cleaning Kit From Hoppe’s
One of my favorite relaxing pastimes is cleaning my guns. Somehow there’s not much I find more calming than the familiar motions and smells of taking my time cleaning my guns, and because of that I admit to owning more than a few cleaning supplies and accessories. Yes, I have my favorites, but a new […]

Point Shooting With A Folding Stock AK-74
I doubt that any of my readers have never seen a film in which a suitably menacing Kalashnikov rifle was used this way: With the sling over the shoulder, stock folded, pointing from the hip: When one comes into ownership of a folding-stocked rifle of this type, the reason for this portrayal becomes obvious: It […]

14″ Mossberg Non-NFA Scattergun
Under current ATF rulings, its possible to create a non-NFA firearm that uses shotgun rounds (note, I did not say “shotgun” which refers to a specific legal definition). By never mounting a stock to a receiver and keeping the over-all length over 26″, Shockwave technologies Raptor grips keep a scattergun legal to own. Users who […]

Slow Mo: Russian PSM Pistol
There is something strangely beautiful about ultra high-speed videos of firearms. In this video Larry Vickers shoots a Russian PSM (Pistolet Samozaryadny Malogabaritny) while being filmed by a high speed camera. It is well worth watching.

What happened to Red Jacket Firearms?
As I was in Louisiana apart of a road trip this past week, I decided to check into Red Jacket Firearms, just because they happened to be within the vicinity of where I was staying in Amite. I was curious on account of two reasons. One, I wanted to know more about what happened to […]

TFBTV: Swedish Roots, Egyptian Steel: The Rasheed
The Egyptian Rasheed is quite a rare firearm. Only 5,000-8,000 were produced and it is based on the Swedish AG42 self-loading rifle. The Egyptians previously used the AG42 as the basis for their 8mm Hakim rifle, but scaled the design down for the 7.62×39 cartridge and the Rasheed was born. If you enjoy our TFBTV […]
