Kimber entered the 2011-style handgun market in a big way, launching multiple variants catered to different segments of the shooting public. The company’s KDS9c brought higher capacity to the 1911-style carry gun market, while its 2K11 design offered a different take on the 2011-style race gun. Now, with its new 1911 DS Warrior, Kimber is offering a more affordably priced option to handgun enthusiasts looking for a do-it-all double-stack that still retains key 1911 features. At its core, the 1911 DS Warrior pairs a traditional Kimber single-action 1911 slide with a modern double-stack subframe and grip module to deliver increased…

Armed Citizen® Today In the early morning hours of Jan. 14, four men allegedly attempted to force their way into an apartment in Thornton, Colo.

A local witness provided a description of a vehicle leaving the scene and police were able to track the suspects. After a resulting vehicle chase and successful pit maneuver, police engaged with four men in the vehicle. One man had suffered gunshot wounds and subsequently died of his injuries; and, though another suspect attempted to flee on foot, all…

“Three oh eight Winchester.” “Twenty-six Nosler.” “Seven point eight two Warbird.” “Twenty-two Eargesplitten Loudenboomer.” “Thirty-three Poacher’s Pet.” “Two-forty Page Super Pooper.” Even novice riflemen or cartridge enthusiasts will recognize the former two chamberings, but as for the latter four, only the obsessed will likely have knowledge of them. And yet, all reveal a feature of the cartridge and/or the designer in their naming convention. Shotshells are no different; gauge and length designations tell us much, though the origins of such are often lost on many of today’s users. Ammunition is unique in that designations oftentimes convey critical information, while in…

The EZARC ARC-Edge Reciprocating Pruning Blade is designed to make a Sawzall or similar reciprocating-blade-saw into a pruning tool. The 15-inch, chrome-vanadium-steel blade has an aggressive tooth design optimized for pruning with five teeth per inch. A shorter 12-inch version is also available. I tested the 15-inch version. Based on my testing, I would suspect that the shorter 12-inch version would work better than the 15-inch version. The extra length of blade that extends beyond the object being cut tends to whip violently to the left and right as the blade moves backward and forward. This creates extra friction, vibration,…
