Photos by Iain Harrison and Muneki Samejina Concept cars push the boundaries of design and engineering. In the early days of the automotive industry, automakers used concept cars to generate attention. These were the days before internet marketing, so companies had to take a more hands-on approach with gauging public opinion. This was a good way for carmakers to show what they could do and get ahead of the competition. Today, concept cars are still used to showcase what designers and engineers can accomplish when they put their minds to it. These cars contrast the practical-minded commonplace and offer a…
My first scope was not a Leupold. A Leupold was something to aspire to. At $59.50 a 4x Leupold cost 10 bucks more than a K4, and 20 more than the scope I bought. Which set me back a little more than my first deer rifle. My first Leupold has faded in memory. Perhaps a 2-7x my friend Bob recommended, it may have arrived with a rifle swap. The 2-7x on Bob’s Featherweight Model 70 chambered for the .270 Win cartridge had accounted for many bucks, including a long-tined mule deer that had hunkered most of October in a cut…

Traditionally, big handguns were for carrying openly and smaller handguns were for concealment because — well, duh — smaller things are easier to hide (and they’re also less weight and bulk to carry). However, the wise concealed carriers ask themselves, “Why exactly am I carrying a handgun in the first place?” The obvious answer is, “Because I might have to shoot something to stay alive.” The standard Springfield Armory Echelon pistol is a full-sized handgun, and it makes for an exceptional concealed carry choice. Shown is a compact 4.0C model. You just need to find the right holster and methods…

The story of the MP5 is a wild tale of globe-trotting Nazi scientists, South American battle rifles, and the rapid rearming of Germany in the face of nuclear annihilation. But despite the complexities of its development and inception, the entire system hinges on an accidental discovery and an elementary ancient object: wheels. How did the simple wheel lead to the development of the gold standard of submachine guns? Furthermore, what makes the MP5 so damn good, and can it actually compete with modern designs? Rest easy, my philomathic friend, by the end of this article, you’ll know all these things…

West Virginia Republican Senators Chris Rose and Zack Maynard have introduced Senate Bill 1071, known as the Public Defense and Provisioning Act, which would authorize the state to sell modern machine guns to law-abiding citizens. The legislation utilizes a specific federal exemption in the Hughes Amendment to create state-operated distribution centers at State Police Troop Headquarters for the sale of firearms like M16s and MP5s. CHARLESTON, WV (4-minute read) — In what could be the most aggressive state-level Second Amendment push in decades, West Virginia lawmakers have introduced legislation to effectively “un-ban” machine guns for qualified residents. Senate Bill 1071,…

As a filmmaker, photographer, and lifelong shooter, I gravitate toward gear that meaningfully enhances the shooting and hunting experience. The firearm and outdoor industries are full of accessories that promise to make life easier in the field, yet only a small number rise above novelty and truly deliver. The Ollin Nexus Base mounts directly to a tripod, providing a fast, reliable foundation for swapping optics in the field. When a product makes you more efficient, improves how you interact with your optics, or elevates your ability to document training or the hunt, it earns a permanent place in the kit.…
