Editor’s Note: The laws and regulations surrounding the National Firearms Act (NFA) are complicated. Know and understand your local, state, and federal laws before making any alterations to firearms and suppressors. I personally believe that NFA regulations shouldn’t exist, but until the laws are repealed, make sure to stay safe and legal.

Does owning an iconic gun check all the boxes or does it feel like something is missing? You’d be hard-pressed to list off a top five list of legendary notable revolvers without mentioning the S&W Model 29. Sort of funny that this gun may not have sold anywhere near as well without Clint Eastwood muttering those classic words from Dirty Harry and holding this blued beauty outstretched. Today it carries a price tag to match its legend. Is it worth it to feel lucky? Let’s dive into my review of the Smith & Wesson Model 29 Classic!

Any International Sniper Competition is yummy-yummy for firearms photo addicts, and this Photo Of The Day is no exception. Above we have a clean shot (pun intended) of two Belgian snipers, using a tripod and the tank trap for support. The Belgian jigsaw camouflage has been replaced by Multicam.

Walther is bringing back a classic pistol option not seen in many years. While most American shooters think of the PPK as a .380 ACP, that was not the original chambering. The .32 ACP PPK was the first model, and Walther is making it again. 

Heritage Manufacturing are expanding their line of lever action firearms with the introduction of the Range Side series. These new lever guns are chambered in 410 Bore which should mean they are shotguns but Heritage Manufacturing call them rifles, so maybe these are slug guns? That’s why I decided to use a neutral term – lever gun.

Wilson Combat is growing its lineup of AR-pattern rifles with the new Tactical Ultralight series, with weight-reducing components that make for fast handling.

Want a Wild West six-shooter with lots of history? You probably can’t afford a genuine made-in-the-1840s Colt Walker, if you’re like most of us. But, a new offering from Cimarron means you can get something that will look just like the real deal.

A while back, Leapers reached out to the crew at The Firearm Blog and asked if anybody would be interested in reviewing one of their new 1-8 LPVOs. I was particularly intrigued by this, as I was not aware that Leapers/Integrix was creating military spec optics, and I thought that they only made scopes for airsoft guns or pellet rifles. I have already done a first impressions piece on the INTEGRIX IX8 1-8X28 LPVO that you can read here. I will be briefly going over the specs here so if you want more of that information, check out the first impressions piece.

For today’s Photo Of The Day, we have pictures of the latest  Cabot Guns project – The Grail Guardian pistol. This 1911-style pistol is engraved with King Arthur and the Holy Grail motifs. The engravings are executed by Jonathon Quill. The ebony grips are made by Henri St. Jean. The case of this pistol is a 70-lb chest created by J. Van de Walker. Only one Grail Guardian pistol is made and it’s already sold.

Welcome back to another edition of Concealed Carry Corner. Last week, we talked about how to carry a concealed firearm no matter what. If you happened to miss that article, be sure to click the link here to check it out. This week, I wanted to go over a subject I have tried to tackle for the last couple of years. With the market of aftermarket concealed carry lights, lasers, and red dots exploding, it can be overwhelming to decide what’s right for you. Over the last few years, I have gone from various setups to my setup currently and learned things along the way. Let’s go over an accessory guide for summer carry.

SIG Sauer has an updated version of the Kilo-10K ABS HD binoculars. The new Gen II model has improved color and light transmission. Let’s take a look at what else has changed. 

Spring has sprung which allows for much more time outdoors shooting, hunting, and playing with new firearms. If you are like our very own Luke Cuenco, and love yourself a good rimfire firearm, then you will be pleased to hear that Springfield Armory has announced that they are expanding their colorway offerings on the 2020 Rimfire Target with new Coyote and OD Green options.

The revolvers we recently showed you on Wheelgun Wednesday aren’t the only items with an impressive Wild West history that Rock Island is about to auction off. How can you top a revolver owned by George Armstrong Custer and another revolver that appeared at the Battle of Little Bighorn? Here’s how—with a big-bore Hawken rifle owned by Theodore Roosevelt himself, and reportedly by the legendary Kit Carson before that!

I’ve had the opportunity to train with a lot of people over the years but one of my more recent learning experiences brought me to a Safariland event with the training outfit, Full Spectrum Warrior. Headed up by former Navy SEAL Rich Graham, Full Spectrum Warrior trains both civilian and military alike, and tends to focus on a broader range of complimentary skills, rather than just drills on the five-yard line. Today I wanted to bring Rich on to share a bit about himself, what got him into wanting to be a firearms trainer, and of course explain some of his methodology to us. There’s a lot to be learned in this podcast so if you’re looking for a few items to mull over and perhaps motivate you to get to the range, tune in for this week’s episode featuring Rich Graham of Full Spectrum Warrior!
