Roy HuntingtonMore from Roy HuntingtonWeaponsSpringfield Armory's Mil-Spec 1911Whenever I handle a basic 1911 pistol, either an original commercial Colt from 1918 or a more modern gun, I'm quickly reminded of just why this elegantly simple gun has been the darling of so many millions of fighting men over the decades.November 30, 2003WeaponsSmith & Wesson Model 66 F Comp RevolverThe rude awakening thrust into my face during that time (the late '90s) was the fact that the majority (and I mean virtually all) of the new recruits had never shot a revolver, much less seen one in anything other than a movie.October 31, 2003WeaponsBeretta Cx4 Storm CarbineLooking like something you saw in the hands of those nasty gorillas in the "Planet of the Apes" movies, the Storm is a lightweight (5.75-pound) pistol-caliber carbine only 29.7 inches in length.September 30, 2003WeaponsLes Baer Custom Thunder Ranch RifleA solid hit with a .308 or .223 will, as Clint Smith is fond of saying, "Really change your channel."August 31, 2003WeaponsCZ P-01 Compact Duty PistolThe company's pistols are so well designed that its classic CZ 52 was a mainstay of the Czech military for 23 years.July 31, 2003WeaponsFN Herstal's FNP9 Duty PistolIf you like the elegant curves and "just-right" feel of that definitive fighting pistol, the Browning Hi-Power, you may be a little surprised by the look and feel of FN Herstal's new FNP9 duty pistol.June 30, 2003WeaponsNorth American Arms Guardian SeriesThere's an old adage among special units of the military and police (indeed, among anyone who relies upon equipment for their very lives) that "one of something is none, and two is one."May 31, 2003WeaponsThere Are No Magic BulletsThat constant search, that timeless endeavor by rangemasters everywhere for the "perfect" bullet goes on. But a perfect bullet doesn't exist, and it probably won't, unless somebody invents a "Star Trek" phaser.May 31, 2003WeaponsKahr Arms' T9 and PM9 PistolsFlat, light, and powerful, Kahr's innovative autos are revolutionary--and perfect for "cop carry."March 31, 2003WeaponsPolice Rifles Then and NowAll steel and solid walnut, the Winchester Model 1907 .351 S.L. (for "Self Loader") autoloader and the Remington Model 8 in .35 Remington are, simply put, stunning examples of the gunmaker's craft.February 28, 2003Previous PagePage 2 of 5Next Page
