REVIEW: North American Arms Guardian in .32NAA

   I'll say this up front, there is nothing bad I can find with this gun! Even though it's a proprietary caliber the company makes ammunition very affordable through their website.

The .32 caliber round packs a punch comparable with a .38 Special as seen in this report http://www.naaminis.com/32NAArel.html.
I carry it in an IWB nylon holster and even though it's an all stainless steel construction and may be considered heavy for its size it rides very comfortably. As with most semi-auto pistols you may occasionally get a FTF or FTE but this gun performed without ANY problems.
   My version of this gun is what they call the "CARRY PACKAGE" where all of the corners have been rounded and the sights have been shaved off making it easier to draw without any snagging from a pocket or even the holster. It's unbelievably accurate at 10 yards and I have no problem relying on it for my own safety or the safety of my family.
I give this gun...

REVIEW: Ruger LCR in .38 Special

I should start this review by saying I purchased this gun solely as my concealed carry piece for the state of Nevada as my Nevada CCW includes any revolver. However, I find myself using it as a carry piece in ANY situation due to the extremely light design (13.5 Ounces). I contemplated purchasing the .357 Magnum version but I'm glad I didn't as this gun is so light that the .38+P's have quite a kick as it is. It's very easy to shoot and accurate at the close ranges it was designed for. When I was getting used to shooting this gun I used .38 Wadcutters but carry the Eldorado Starfire +P when concealed. It's so light you sometimes forget you have it on.
I give this gun...




28 Gauge Revolver and other Powerhouses!

Wow, I've owned the Taurus Judge Public Defender in .410/.45 Colt and I thought that kicked like a mule!

I can't imagine how this beast kicks! I'm guessing there will eventually be on of these in 12 Gauge?!
I remember seeing a Derringer chambered in 45-70 Govt. and thinking "What will they try next?"
Anyone familiar with the 45-70 Govt. cartridge will probably agree that it's not an everyday plinker.

Why Attack Glock?

It seems like every time we have a gun related tragedy in this country there is a group of people who go into attack mode. The latest being in Tucson seems to have them on the warpath against the Glock company. As a Glock owner I can tell you my Model 26 has NEVER taken my car keys and gone out in the middle of the night and committed crimes. It's the INDIVIDUAL using the gun! It has been shown in recent articles the failures in the Tucson incident lie wholly with the Judicial System. There were a number of instances where Loughner was arrested and then let loose even though it was obvious he had mental health issues.
I'd like to know your thoughts on this issue...
