Pros: Beautiful, powerful handgun, will stop just about anything.
Cons: design of the safety

I have to whole heartedly agree with almost everything written by DEMON on this one. Having bought the Desert Eagle 44mag as my very first handgun when I hit 21, I can attest to there being no finer large caliber firearm. I don't really consider it a...

Pros: Smooth action, predictable, reliable, accurate, great hand feel
Cons: expensive

Choosing the right hand gun can be a daunting task. In today’s marketplace, so many options are available that it almost seems impossible to know what’s best suited for you. Before I purchased my Sig Sauer P-229 pistol I started ...

Pros: Very accurate with a high mag capacity.
Cons: Very, very heavy for a pistol.

I have been a huge fan of .44 Mag for years, but have always been biased to the old wheel gun for my hunting and home defense needs. That is until I aquired a Desert Eagle. This is the Cadillac of big autos. IMI really built this gun for punishment....

Pros: Fires incredibly fast!
Cons: Cost

The first gun I ever fired was an old Remington 12 gauge that my uncle kept behind his kitchen door. From that time forward, I have been a scattergun lover. Over the years since that first shaky squeeze of the trigger I have owned and fired a lot of...

Pros: Everything except the magazines
Cons: the magazines

When I last visited this section a comment was mentioned by Mark about the Ruger 10-22 rifle. I promised a review of this in the response to his comment, and so here it is:

The Ruger 10-22 is the greatest competition semi auto 22caliber rifle...

Pros: Mostly HK parts at half the cost.
Cons: Comes with a slimline fore grip. Hard to mount the triangular grip to. Grip must be modified.

About 6 months ago I was looking through Shotgun News and ran across what looked like an HK91 for $600. !!!???!??! was my first thought. Upon closer inspection I found that this was a domestic reproduction using all HK parts minus the receiver called...

Pros: Best of all worlds.
Cons: The supply is drying up quick!

The Daewoo DR-200 is the best of all worlds. This version of the Korean military's K-2 was imported by Kimber of America during the early to late 90's and fills the void in the Daewoo K-2 world created by the Clinton Assault Weapon Ban of 1993....

Pros: Extremely accurate and durable
Cons: Very large

I have owned my Ruger Redhawk .44 Mag for about 5 years now and it is the finest large caliber pistol that I have ever touched the trigger on. I have the stainless model and have yet found the first spot of rust on this puppy, even after taking it to...

Pros: This will improve all aspects of your shooting ability.
Cons: Very bright sunlight coming from an angle directly where you are aiming will make the dot appear less bright.

This is a review of a shooting accessory. (I think we need a category in either outdoors or sports for these items, they are very expensive and many people buy these. These are major purchases which members need advice on before purchasing. If you agree...

Pros: More bang for your buck.
Cons: Not available in ClassIII models.

For the money, the Maadi AKM is one of the best semi-auto AK-47s on the us market. I personally have had mine for better than 5 years and have fired several thousand rounds out of it with only ONE jam! (and that was caused because I was torture testing...

Pros: everything. Magnification, clarity, options, price
Cons: I do not have all of them

BSA must stand for Best Scope Available.
(Yes, this is another gun accessories review, I need to be an expert, remember?)

BSA scopes are very inexpensive, I will not even use the word cheap because that would disgrace such fine...

Pros: Very small, reasonably accurate
Cons: Not accurate at distance, GlockSafe action bothers some users

A while back I was looking for a new handgun. Despite California's (and in particular, my county's) rather restrictive laws about such things, I decided I wanted something that could be concealed, regardless or whether I ever would have the opportunity...

Pros: High power, accuracy
Cons: High price for ammo

MattJoe has got it right all the way when he says this is the best high power hand gun ever made. The best stopping power available in a handgun with good accuracy, this gun combines the best of both worlds. When capping off some rounds at the pistol...

Pros: Great rifle - composite is light and tough
Cons: Composite's a little ugly

I got a Model 70 30-06 for Christmas a few years back. At the time, I wasn't too thrilled by it because it came with black composite stocks and matte, dark blued steel. The thing looked like a sniper rifle - certainly not my image of the hunting rifle...

Pros: This is a great scope!
Cons: If you're a sniper...

Ask yourself: "Do I really need a 50mm objective lens on my riflescope?"

Then go on: "Do I really, really need a 50mm objective lens on my riflescope?"

Then go even further: "Do I fully understand how much...
