Henry All-Weather Lever Actions - Two Gun Review

Henry All-Weather Lever Actions – Two Gun Review

A big chunk of the Henry portfolio is in rimfire and pistol caliber rifles and carbines. It was only within the last handful of years that Henry started to make some full powered rifles, which they call the “Large Caliber Rifles”. These rifles, like pretty much all of the Henry offerings, are down right handsome. We are talking classic styled rifles with Walnut stocks, deep rich bluing on the steel and of course the traditional Henry brass frame. They are sexy looking long guns that make it hard not to treat as safe queens. But these are rifles that can be a great field, truck or saddle guns. Henry now has the perfect compromise with the All-Weather Lever Actions that are available in 30-30 and 45-70.

Traditions Muzzleloaders—Two Gun Review, Pursuit G4 and Buckstalker

It might be mid July and it is for sure hotter than a 2 dollar pistol here in The South, but it is not too early to start thinking about the fall hunts. If you are in the market for a new inline Traditions rifles are a great place to look, they are well made and equipped rifles for a good price.

Henry Big Boy Carbine .44 Mag. – Classic Looks & Ranch Rifle Function – Full Review

To put it simply, Henry Rifles look cool. Maybe it is a Country-Boy-Hipster-Thing, but brass framed lever guns have that certain something that not only appeals to my gun loving side, but also to my functional art side. This is a slick looking rifle that, most importantly, is a hell of a shooter.

The Used Market--The Smith and Wesson 22A

The Used Market–The Smith and Wesson 22A

The Smith and Wesson 22A has not been out of production for all that long. Actually it was right about a year ago the Smith officially discontinued this gun. It is possible there might still be a few floating around local gun shops that are new, but the vast majority of them will be used. And if you want an easy-to-service tack-driver, this is it.

Henry's .22 Magnum Small Game Exterminators

Henry’s .22 Magnum Small Game Exterminators

Shooting a squirrel with a .45-70 doesn’t leave much meat on the bone. Don’t ask me how I know this. Let’s just say that the .22 is more suited for this application. And Henry’s Small Game Carbine is the perfect choice for magnum rimfire.

Two New 9mm Springfield Range Officers

Two New 9mm Springfield Range Officers

If you are a fan of the 1911 and have not checked out Springfield’s Range Officer line you owe it to yourself to do so. I have come to the conclusion that the standard Range Officer is just about the best bang for your buck in the target shooting 1911 world there is. The ROs have one of the best off the shelf slide to frame fits I have seen on a non-custom pistol.

General Thompson and The Thompson Submachine Gun

General Thompson and The Thompson Submachine Gun

The Thompson Sub-machine Gun is arguably the most iconic 20th Century American firearm. From rum running gangsters leaving a “message” with a Chicago Typewriter to a Marine on the beach at Iwo Jima laying down fire with his Tommy Gun, the Thompson is part of our history and culture.
