This year at SHOT Show, accessory manufacturer U.S. Palm announced that it would be branching out to offer its own line of firearms and suppressors. Continuing with the company’s hurricane theme, the new line of suppressors are called “Eye of the Storm” (EOS) Series. The new suppressors are 3D-printed, low-back-pressure designs that are intended for serious use. This year, U.S. Palm introduced a line of AR-type rifles and handguns and a suppressor lineup. EOS suppressors are available in four different models, each tailored for a very specific purpose. The EOS-AK fits within the other accessories that U.S. Palm makes for…

You might be familiar with some of the biggest bucks ever killed, named after hunters that bagged them. The Hanson Buck, the largest typical whitetail that still sits atop the record books. Or the Butcher Buck, the second biggest non-typical ever taken, with a rack that looks more like a geological formation than deer antlers.But, you might be less familiar with Boone and Crockett’s “Picked Up” category, which recognizes some of the world’s biggest dead heads ever found. Yes, these deer still occupy the same list on Boone and Crockett’s record book. They’re just noted as picked up under the…

In a 6-3 rebuke of Hawaii’s attempt to circumvent the U.S. Supreme Court’s NRA-backed Bruen (2022) decision, the Court ruled in Wolford v. Lopez that “Hawaii’s law prohibiting licensed concealed-carry permit holders from carrying handguns on private property open to the public without the property owner’s express authorization violates the Second and Fourteenth Amendments.” The majority opinion was written by Justice Samuel Alito, a President George W. Bush nominee to the Supreme Court. The majority opinion is concise: “The restrictions imposed by Hawaii’s challenged law fall within the plain text of the Second Amendment, so the law is presumptively unconstitutional.”…

The Argonne, 1917A squad of Doughboys slithered across No Man’s Land. They were led by a boyish lieutenant, not far removed from Princeton. Behind him was a desultory sergeant, a pre-war regular. He’d fought the Mexicans, the Spanish and the Moro. He was armed with a Winchester Model 1897 repeating shotgun; the genesis of which came from the genius of John Moses Browning. The Doughboys dropped into a Hun trench. A sentry cried out in harsh, guttural German and the fight was on. The boy lieutenant dropped several with his .45 M1911. And our trusty regular Army sergeant dropped them…

In a shout of continued support for American freedom on the eve of this nation’s 250th anniversary since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, President Donald Trump (R) said at a rally at the Mack Trucks facility in Macungie, Pa., that “The NRA, everybody, they really have been, they’ve been with me right from the beginning.

Italian manufacturer Chiappa makes an interesting mix of historical cartridge and black powder designs, modern innovative firearms and guns that combine both of those elements into one. In the latter category is the S.A. 1873 Black Thunder .44 Magnum revolver. As the “S.A. 1873” part of the name implies, the Black Thunder is based on the classic Colt Single Action Army revolver, with a solid frame with a swingout loading gate and a barrel mounted ejector rod. From there, the revolver goes in a unique direction that only Chiappa could engineer.   The Chiappa S.A. 1873 Black Thunder combines traditional…
