    HK45 Tactical

    January 10, 2013December 22, 2024
    4 Comments

    HK announced the introduction of the HK45 Tactical to the civilian market. It looks like you will be able to get them in all sorts of tactical colors and with a threaded barrel. Probably the oddest thing about this product announcement is that the HK45 Tactical is shown in a photograph with a “dummy” sound…

    SIG 1911 Spartan

    THIS IS SPARTA…or at least a 1911 commemorating the ancient Greek nation-state. The SIG 1911 Spartan is a special edition, full-size 1911 with a great looking finish. While I am sure this gun will shoot, this is an awesome bar-b-que gun. The finish is an oil-rubbed bronze Nitron finish, while the engraved “Molon Labe” on…

    Well the new rimfire cartridge is here and it is a smoking hot round: the .17 Winchester Super Magnum. The new rimfire promises “pinpoint accuracy” and the “downrange performance of a centerfire cartridge.” Ok, let’s cut to the chase: the new Winchester cartridge is pushing a 20 grain bullet at 3,000 fps. That is an amazing…

    A “go bag” is typically a pack or bag that is loaded with the essentials someone might need to survive if they have to leave where they are in a hurry. I differentiate the go bag from the bug out bag, considering the bug out bag to have more supplies to better sustain me for several days,…
