Thermal riflescopes have quickly moved from specialized military equipment to practical tools for hunters, shooters and landowners. With processing power advancing and manufacturing costs decreasing, thermal technology continues to become more accessible. Armasight’s newest release, the Contractor 320 Lite, reflects this trend. Built on the same foundation as the original Contractor 320, the Lite version retains a durable aluminum housing, sealed compartments and tethered, gasketed caps to prevent loss in the field. The control layout emphasizes simplicity, with tactile knobs and a single selector button for capturing still images or video. A locking power switch requires both depression and rotation…
Ruger has officially launched its 250th Anniversary Series of firearms, commemorating the United States Semiquincentennial and celebrating the company’s deep roots in American manufacturing. Echoing the iconic commemorative line introduced for the nation’s Bicentennial in 1976, each limited production model in this new series is distinctly marked: “Made in the 250th Year of American Liberty.” In honoring this milestone, the series also pays tribute to the freedoms safeguarded by the Second Amendment—protections that have helped shape the American experience for 250 years. Ruger has built rugged, reliable firearms in American factories for more than seven decades. The traditions of craftsmanship,…

As much as many centrists and libertarians are opposed to Donald Trump’s ongoing strikes against Iran, I have to say, the downstream result might end up becoming one of the most libertarian results I have ever seen. For decades, small government activists like those in the Ron Paul movement have been calling for a comprehensive US divorce from NATO and the shutdown of America’s military bases overseas. Trump has, either deliberately or inadvertently, set this very process in motion. The refusal of most of Europe (and Australia) to provide support in the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz might seem…
April 19th is the original Patriot Day which marks the multiple anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, known as “The Shot Heard ‘Round the World”. Note that due to corporate bureaucracy, the Patriot Day celebration has generally been moved to the third Monday in April to facilitate a postal/banking holiday. April 19th also marks the anniversary of the blockade of Confederate Ports in 1861, the Warsaw Ghetto uprising against the Nazis in 1943, the BATF’s costly raid on the Branch Davidian Church in Waco, the gun turret explosion on the USS Iowa in 1989, the capture of the…
2026 marks the 50th anniversary of Gunsite, an elite training establishment in Arizona founded by Lt. Col.

The company is also celebrating with product collaborations, including a Steyr Scout Rifle, an Aero Precision carbine with an Aimpoint Duty RDS optic and a SureFire light and a high-end, Gunsite single-stack 1911 Service Pistol made by the academy’s own gunsmith, Dave Fink. Finally, a collaboration with Davidson’s and Ruger will result in a Gunsite…

In 2018, I bought a used 12-gauge Remington 870 Police Magnum, and recently, I decided to let Vang Comp Systems work its magic on the gun. Until this project, my experience with Vang Comp guns was extremely limited. Other than briefly handling Matt Haught’s worked-over Vang Comp 870 at the first-ever Thunderstick summit, I had no direct experience with such guns, but a review of the company’s background is enough to make any shotgun enthusiast interested in what they can do for a shotgun. Vang Comp was founded in 1990 by gunsmith Hans Vang in California. Vang’s first and major…
