One of my favorite things about writing for TFB is being able to write about the crazy things I find in the wild. Last week I was running around the various shops in western Michigan and came across this bullpup 870 conversion. The guy behind the counter was an extremely grumpy old-timer who went on […]

ALTOR Corporation of Cave Creek, Arizona, has designed a rather unusual single shot pistol that almost looks like the descendant of the CIA’s Deer Gun. The pistol will be available in .380 Auto and 9x19mm caliber options. Why do you need a single shot pistol in the age of cheap subcompact semi-autos, snubby wheelguns and […]

Designed to compete in the 2009 Precision Sniper Rifle (PSR) competition, the Barrett Multi-Role Adaptive Design or MRAD was born. While it wouldn’t be chosen for the PSR of 2009, it would be selected as the Department of Defense (DoD) newest Advanced Sniper Rifle (ASR) in 2019. Being overly curious about this platform for years, I was […]

Until I started writing this article I had never really thought about the fact that I actually own no less than three rifles from Ruger. All bought at MSRP, or above, in fact. Two Ruger semi-autos, one in 223 Rem and one in 9×19 mm. And one bolt-action in 308 Win that all sit in […]

The Dallas SWAT team is in for a nice upgrade of their weapon systems. By the looks of the components it’s not cheap, but it’s probably difficult to find better gear for the mission.

In this edition of TFB’s Wheelgun Wednesday, we’ll be reviewing the Smith & Wesson 625 JM in .45 ACP. Some may question why, in the year 2019, would someone want to shoot .45 ACP through a “six-gun” when you could shoot 7 to 13 of them through a semi-auto? Well, it’s kind of like how […]

When talking about weapon lights, probably the most asked question about lights would be the best rifle light for a defensive AR carbine.

Oh boy! The fun they must have at Franklin Armory as they read Californian (and other states’) firearms legislation and invent new ideas and products.

Today we take a look at a SIG Sport 552 in a picture taken by Schrombo. I am surprised that the German Firearms legislation forces the flashlight to be a dummy. I have never tried the 552 Sport but shot a bit with the 552 Commando. Which trigger we like is individual, but that trigger […]
