In December, Beretta informed Sturm, Ruger & Company it intended to combine the two companies. The deal wouldn’t be through a friendly acquisition or a negotiated sale, but through a maneuver that belongs more to Wall Street than the gun counter.

CVA’s muzzleloaders have come a long way from their blued-steel, brass and hardwood origins. The company has stayed at the forefront of the “modern muzzleloader” market, with designs like its Endura introduced last year. One of CVA’s longest-lasting muzzleloaders is the Optima, which the company has upgraded with “modern ergonomics and modularity” with the Optima XP and XP-SB. Optima muzzleloaders are .50 caliber and use a break-open action that is released by a lever integrated into the trigger guard. Fired via a 209 shotgun primer, Optimas use CVA’s Quick Release Breech Plug (QRBP) to allow for ease of unloading and…

00:00:02 Speaker 1: Hey, everyone, Welcome to The Houndation’s podcast. I’m your host, Tony Peterson, and this episode is all about trying to do the right thing when we have to make the worst decision that dog owners are likely to face. I think that one of the greatest injustices of our modern life is the reality that even if our dogs end up living as long as dogs can, it’s never long enough. Getting you know, ten or twelve years out of a dog is a gift, but also an absolute heartbreaker, and the end rarely comes with them…

The late 19th century was a time of significant change in firearm design, and the U.S. military wasn’t immune to the rapid advances in small arms. In just a few decades, the Army would see itself go from a single-shot, blackpowder design in the form of the Trapdoor Springfield to a modern, semi-automatic fighting rifle in the M1 Garand. Watch our “American Rifleman Television” feature segment above to learn about the Army’s early bolt-action and semi-automatic rifle designs. The Krag & Its ShortcomingsThe Krag-Jørgensen was the first general-issue bolt-action rifle fielded by the U.S. military, representing a significant leap forward…

00:00:02 Speaker 1: If we don’t get picked up by this helicopter, we probably will hit the other shoreline either at or shortly after dark. And then my concern is, am I even gonna be able to walk around to get firewood? Are my fingers gonna work for me to light that fire? 00:00:19 Speaker 2: This is the story of a near death experience of a game warden in northern Canada. It’s kind of weird to me how humans are so attracted to these near death stories. I know that, I sure am, and I think it’s a primitive…

(Continued from Part 1. This concludes the article.) At one auction, I found some very odd tools for some type of woodwork.  Upon research they were used by wheelwrights to make wooden wagon wheels.  I have an interest in several old trades but wheel making is not one of them.  On a trip to Holmes County, Ohio (in Amish country) I took those old wheelwright tools and traded them for some other tools (blacksmithing and chisels) that I did want at the Colonial Homestead Store, in Millersburg.  This store offers old but usable tools from many old trades.  Just walking…
