SHOT Show 2026 is where the industry throws everything at the wall. Most of it is incremental. However, a few items cut through because people kept scanning them, saving them, and circling back with questions. This week’s Guns & Gadgets Daily post focuses on SHOT Show 2026 standouts pulled from the New Product Center’s “most...
Read More →Did you know that zombies track their prey using sound, not sight? The seminal work describing zombie survival, Max Brooks’ Zombie Survival Guide, makes it very clear that the shuffling undead lose their vision quickly postmortem, because they forget to blink and their eyes cloud over. However, their hearing remains intact, and they instinctively flock…
(Although they are wrong about how to hold it, how many rounds it holds, and so on.) There’s only one firearm that Hollywood knows how to do justice to: the Magnum Research Desert Eagle. Oh, sure, part of the reason is that the DE is large and “reads well” on screen. But the real reason…
Dear YouTube: You can do whatever you want on your own platform, but you can’t censor the real world. Cry about it. You’ve known for a very long time that the same people who hate the Second Amendment hate the First Amendment even more. After all, they protect each other, creating a double layer that…
In the fell clutch of circumstance, I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance, My head is bloody, but unbowed.–William Ernest Henley, Invictus Where were you when the bullet whickered past Donald Trump and he dropped behind the podium? Did you watch in shock, hoping beyond hope? And when he stood up,…
Everytown for Gun Safety is currently full-auto mag-dumping in their Underoos … File this latest development under “dreams come true,” in which the Supreme Court’s 2022 Bruen decision is opening up paths to firearms ownership that we couldn’t have imagined just three years ago. We’re going to guess that this ruling won’t result in Uzis…
Bushmaster is back in the biggest possible way! Remember Bushmaster? The classic AR-15 manufacturer was a huge favorite among shooters, famed for its reliable and precise firearms for decades. Then, sadly, about 10 years ago, Bushmaster’s parent company became embattled by lawsuits and eventually went under, taking Bushmaster with it. But you can’t keep a…
The Magnum Research Baby Eagle III has one impressive set of grandparents. From the tried-and-true, combat-proven CZ-75 design, which inspired the Israeli Weapon Industries Jericho 941, which then inspired the all-metal Baby Eagle. The all-metal Baby Eagle engendered the third-generation, polymer-framed Baby Eagle III, the lightest and most refined Baby Eagle yet. In this review, I’m taking…
Lone Wolf Dusk 19 > Glock 19. Change my mind. The trouble with doing so would be that there are lots of other minds that would need changing, too, especially anyone who’s ever handled or shot a Lone Wolf Dusk 19. Essentially, the Dusk 19 is everything that shooters wish their Glocks were. From a…
The next time someone tells you that gun manufacturing “isn’t rocket science,” tell them about Jacob Grey Firearms. Ever seen the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey? The Kubrick sci-fi classic opens with a troupe of apes that has just discovered a mysterious plinth, which telepathically teaches them the use of tools–which are immediately employed as…
VKTRy at last! What does VKTRy look like? How about an out-of-the-box shooting experience that the company promises is unrivaled anywhere else in the industry? This AR-15 incorporates a short-stroke piston system that results in recoil so soft that each round is like a gentle kiss (for you, not for the target). In this great…
If you were to ask 10 shooters to create their list of “Best .22LR Rifles,” I guarantee each list would be different. Not all .22LR firearms are the same, or even built for the same purpose. It would be totally Unpewfessional of me to claim that my list is the definitive one … but wait!…
Are you asking yourself, “Okay, but why? And how?” Here’s what Bond Arms had to say … Why did we do this??? At Shot Show 2019, right before Covid, we were sitting around after the show and we started talking about, “If we built a Lever Action Long Gun”, what cool features would we want to…
