Picture this: you drive out to the range with a rifle you know is zeroed. You spent good money on a scope, so you have a crystal-clear, parallax-free view of your target. You get your rifle set up on a good rest, chamber a round, and pull the trigger to the rear. You are rewarded with a perfect center-punch. Two ...
The Brief: The Department of Justice has reactivated the federal process for restoring firearm rights under 18 U.S.C. § 925(c), shifting review authority to the Office of the Pardon Attorney. This ends a decades-long blockade, allowing individuals prohibited from owning firearms due to past nonviolent offenses to petition for relief.

When I had my own land to protect, I needed a rifle that could handle them at close range in thick cover, day or night. I settled on the Springfield Armory M1A ...
The argument can be made that the Germans make the world’s best engineers. By way of evidence I would submit the StG44 assault rifle, the Me 262 jet fighter, and the Panther tank. While, in each case, the exigencies of around-the-clock bombing certainly took a toll on these revolutionary weapon systems, one cannot help but be impressed with the sheer ...
I have always appreciated gear that solves a real problem without unnecessarily complicating things. In the world of long-range shooting and hunting, there is already enough information for shooters to manage between environmental conditions, ammunition selection, ballistic data, wind calls and ranging targets.
