By Tom McHale|2025-01-31T16:50:16-05:00January 31st, 2025|

Recently I got my hands on the new Ruger RXM Pistol. A collaborative effort with the team at Magpul, the RXM uses a swappable Magpul frame, Glock-compatible magazines and maintains compatibility throughout with the Glock Gen 3 platform. That means you can choose from the vast array of aftermarket sights, stops, barrels, slides, and more.

New XRB Solid Copper Defensive Ammo from Sellier & Bellot

By Tom McHale|2025-01-09T09:16:00-05:00January 9th, 2025|

Sellier and Bellot has some new(ish) defensive ammo. It’s an all-copper projectile design that’ll stay together when passing through challenging barriers like glass. I tested it with a couple of pistols with known accuracy and was able to print sub-two-inch groups from 25 yards, so it can shoot more accurately than most humans.

A More Affordable Carry 1911: Springfield Armory RONIN EMP

By Tom McHale|2024-12-30T16:52:40-05:00December 30th, 2024|

She stole it, and I can’t even press charges, in part because she’s my wife, and in part, because I had it coming. The year was 2012. I was doing a story on the Springfield Armory EMP (Enhanced Micro Pistol) and its lineage to the 1911 TRP model. I had a loaner pistol sent my way — the original 3″-barrel 9mm model.
