Cheap Guns: 1911 Edition Metro Arms Commander

Thu, 04/30/2015 - 09:22

In the realm of budget 1911s the American Classic stands out for the "extras" they come with. I am not talking about the other stuff in the box, I mean the stuff on the pistol its self. This is a solid commander sized 1911. Metro Arms offers a lot of bang for your buck on this pistol. There are a few fit and finish issues and the mold lines left on some parts does bother me some. But that is being a bit nit-picky. The American Classic Commander works and shoots like a champ, and that is what really matters, right?

Ammo Test: Sig Sauer Elite Performance V-Crown 9mm

Wed, 04/29/2015 - 17:30

While the Sig ammo is a relative newcomer to the market, the people are not. I spent some time talking with Dan Powers, who runs the ammo show, and it’s clear that the folks behind Sig Sauer’s new ammunition division have been there and done that. Because every caliber, load and brand combination is different, we’re going to be testing a number of different Sig Sauer loads over the coming weeks. We’ll start the handgun family with Sig’s Elite Performance V-Crown 9mm load.

Hillary the Golden Goose for Gun Control?

Wed, 04/29/2015 - 15:01

Hillary Clinton is the great white hope for the gun-control movement. What president Obama failed to do in terms of rolling back the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding gun owners, many hope that Hillary will be able to achieve should she be elected in 2016.

Does Rev. Al Sharpton Ever Make Any Situation Better?

Wed, 04/29/2015 - 09:23

I don’t mean to pee on someone’s parade, but I have to ask a question that’s been bugging me for a very long time, what the heck does Rev. Al Sharpton bring to the table in terms of his ability to calm tensions between protesters and police? What can he possibly do to make things better in Baltimore?

Federal Court Upholds Assault Weapons Ban: ‘Makes the Public Feel Safer…that’s a Substantial Benefit’

Tue, 04/28/2015 - 16:40

“If it has no other effect, Highland Park’s ordinance may increase the public’s sense of safety,” wrote Easterbrook. “Mass shootings are rare, but they are highly salient, and people tend to overestimate the likelihood of salient events. If a ban on semi‐automatic guns and large‐capacity magazines reduces the perceived risk from a mass shooting, and makes the public feel safer as a result, that’s a substantial benefit.”

LWRC Tricon Review

Sun, 04/26/2015 - 13:46

I sometimes have a hard time finding meaningful differences between black rifles. This isn't one of them. The LWRC Tricon MK6 is very different. Designed in coordination with former SEAL and renowned trainer Jeff Gonzales, the rifle is built for service. Yet this level of craftsmanship comes at a price.

$998 Off-Grid Wood Cookstove – Killer Deal Heads Up 4/30 Deadline!

Sun, 04/26/2015 - 11:05

This is one of the few articles in this series where I haven’t yet reviewed the product, but I plan to follow it up with a review in the future because I bought one. My intention in posting this today is to give the regular readers of this column a official heads up on a heavily discounted and apparently high quality product that may be a priority for you in your prepping supplies. For many years I have been looking at wood cook stoves. If you have never seen one (and I actually haven’t in person), these are not regular woodstoves. Wood cookstoves were popular in the US between the 1880s and 1930s. They look like a regular stove, with an oven and burners, but they run on wood and have no electric or gas components.

Cheap Guns for Home Defense

Fri, 04/24/2015 - 19:31

We're beginning a new series here at GunsAmerica that examines the best options for home defense. But there's a twist. In order to make our list, these guns and tools have to be reliable, capable, and (most importantly) affordable. There's a lot to talk about--from gun design to caliber considerations--but these guns will get the job done without breaking the bank.
