Gun Review

The Palmetto State Armory JAKL was first introduced several years ago, but is now hitting its stride with consumers. The JAKL is an adjustable gas, long-stroke piston operated AR-15.  The JAKL has been billed...

The hottest trend in firearms over the past four years is the sub-compact semi-auto, and Kimber’s R7 Mako has jumped squarely into the frenzy.   This trend really got started when Sig Sauer’s P365 launched,...

Firearms and affordability are tricky things. Some do it well, and others, well, who else bought a USFA ZIP 22LR? More than a few times, I've talked about pistol caliber carbines and large-format pistols,...
