Artificial intelligence (AI) isn’t good at rendering firearms, and that’s probably not a bad thing, for reasons that will soon be explored. It should also be noted that while AI rendered guns isn’t good yet, it is likely to improve. That might not be a good thing either. First, we need some background on what exactly AI is, or more accurately, what is generative AI. It has been in development for decades, but it was only in 2022 that generative AI entered the public consciousness with consumer-friendly programs. Where to start. There’s a LOT wrong going on here. Want to…

The concept of building long guns for off-body concealed carry is not a new trend. From pistol caliber carbines to folding centerfire rifle options, there are numerous “backpack gun” and “truck gun” offerings available in what one can argue is an oversaturated market. So why, then, would one consider a concealable bolt action for such a purpose? Surely an AR in 300 Blackout can do the same things, with larger magazines, easier handling, and a myriad of accessory options. Ultimately, the true crux of the differentiation doesn’t stand solely in the gun itself, but the choice of caliber. Typically, when…
We take a look at the truly unique 7.62 Nagant Russian revolver cartridge, also known as 7.62x38mmR.This military revolver cartridge was adopted by Russia in 1895 and used in the Nagant and Pieper revolvers, which were both seven-shot designs, as opposed to the usual six. The Nagant design is unique in that when the hammer is cocked, the cylinder moves forward over the barrel shank to form a gas seal. The velocity gain from this arrangement is significant. No other revolver has ever used this ingenious, though complicated, system.Russian Nagant revolvers have been sold in moderate quantities in the United…

The United States Semiquincentennial, also called the Bisesquicentennial, the Sestercentennial, or the Quarter Millennium, marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence of the United States signed on July 4, 1776. Our founding fathers went to war with the mightiest empire in the world because they dared to put a tax on their common breakfast beverage of choice. Imagine what they would have done over the NFA. In all seriousness, we are doing something a bit different with the Unusual Suspects for the rest of the year. We are going to profile only U.S.-made knives and…
When it comes to preparedness information, far too many so-called survival experts spend their time obsessing over events that have roughly a one-in-a-billion chance of actually touching your life.Asteroids. Grid-down EMP collapses. Zombie hordes. That stuff gets clicks. It does not get you through the next six months when your transmission blows and your employer announces layoffs in the same week.So what type of events should we be planning for?The harsh truth is that your SHTF event has probably already started — you just haven’t recognized it yet.It’s not that massive, nation-level catastrophes never happen. They do. But the big…

Before we begin, let’s just address the elephant in the room. What is “long-range” with a pistol, especially in a caliber like .380? That is a fair question, so let’s just start with the simple fact it is FUN to see how far we can go, to push our skills and develop our technique for shooting accurate/tight groups at appropriate distances. At 200 yards, a .380 ACP pistol is well outside what most shooters ever attempt. The author demonstrates that it is possible with the right pistol and ammo. While we all have different definitions of what “fun” is, for…
