"After shooting my 1911s, I started having failures that had me scratching my head. One gun in particular had feeding problems from the beginning. Even with ball am******on and select magazines, it was difficult to get a round chambered.

Of all the guns that I fired that day, none functioned perfectly with every magazine that I used in it. I expected total reliability with the 1911-style pistols. Am I mistaken to believe that all 1911 magazines should be compatible with all 1911-style pistols?"

The Norinco TU-33/40 is, at a glance, a copy of a Ma**er 98k with a few choice details that give away the fact that it’s not a big-bore World War II workhorse.

The FBI just released its final 2025 national crime statistics, and the agency describes the 9.3 percent overall decline as the largest year-to-year drop in violent crime since national estimates began in 1936.

This drop in crime correlates with a decades-long increase in gun sales. Correlation is not causation, of course, but as gun-control groups and the politicians who would take away the Second Amendment often make the argument that gun sales equal more crime, it is worth noting this specious claim is very provably not the case.

While the company is mostly known for its metal-frame, hammer-fired DA/SA handguns, BERETTA jumped into the striker-fired, polymer-frame pistol market with the APX in 2017, followed in 2022 by the upgraded A1 series in 2022.

New for 2026, the company is adding another first to the APX lineup with the first factory ported model.

"As of Aug. 24, 2026, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) webpage is again providing defensive-gun-use (DGU) data.

The Biden administration, at the behest of gun-control groups that want to shape anti-gun narratives in the media, dropped scientific surveys that indicate how many times armed citizens annually use their guns for self-defense.

The Trump administration’s CDC is again publishing this well-established data."
