While the trend is taking off now, it was Smith & Wesson’s 3-inch-barreled Performance Center Model 19 that started it back in 2018. It wasn’t until the early 2020s that the “Carry Comp” style really took off. This came right behind the wider trend of adding external compensators…

(Continued from Part 1.  This concludes the article.) To give a vivid image of what it is still like here, the next smaller village over where my girl grew up still has a single electrical wire held up by bamboo poles with a 3W LED bulb dangling off every 100m (330 ft) or so for street lights, and house wiring running off that same single wire. But the sand roads were concreted over a few years ago, so there is improvement happening. As you can imagine in the tropics solar power works great, in dry season we have full batteries…

Hunters drool over fresh rubs and scrapes. They’re thrilling to see during a scouting session or hunt, but deer are drawn to them for other reasons. Research from the University of Georgia shows that fresh rubs and scrapes actually glow for deer like “neon lights.”This first-of-its-kind study highlights the photoluminescence observed in signposts (i.e., rubs and scrapes) used by deer and indicates that a combination of secretions from peeled tree bark and a deer’s forehead glands might contribute to this phenomenon.Daniel DeRose-Broeckert, a graduate assistant at the UGA Deer Lab, spearheaded the experiment. To observe the photoluminescence of rubs and…

Welcome to another Gun of the Week episode. We’re here on the range with the Daniel Defense DDPCC. Pistol-caliber carbines have been really popular lately for a lot of great reasons, such as the low recoil, great handling and ability to train on shorter ranges. It also doesn’t hurt that, comparatively speaking, 9 mm is significantly less expensive than rifle calibers. So, you can shoot PCCs a lot, and if your local gun range does not permit rifle calibers, you can still shoot it there. A lot of manufacturers have been coming out with great PCCs out there, with Daniel…
