What To Buy: Striker Fired vs Hammer Fired Pistols

June 6, 2017 by David Donchess Leave a Comment

A lot of people debate the advantages and disadvantages of the striker and hammer fired pistols. There are definite pros and cons to both systems, but people tend to try to label one or the other as a winner over the other. I find it more helpful to merely evaluate ad judge the systems for what they are good at and where they shine. There are considerations that one must take … [Read more...]

A Subcompact With Guts: SIG P224 – First Impressions

May 14, 2017 by Kevin 16 Comments

Remember this SHOT Show 2012 gem? I finally got a hold of a SIG P224 in .357 SIG for review, and I am delighted to see what it can do. You've seen the review on the P226, right? (If not, check it out!) Well, the P229 is essentially a scaled down, compact version of the full size SEAL sidearm. The subcompact P224 is just a size down from there.

MR9 Review – Not Another Glock Clone

March 19, 2017 by Travis Pike Leave a Comment

I love start articles with something to get certain people frothy, especially Glock guys. Relax fanboys, Glocks are great guns, I just happen to think the MR9 is a better gun. The MR9 is essentially a clone of the Walther P99, made with Walther's permission of course. The frame is made by Walther, and this isn't evident until you remove the backstrap, you see the Walther … [Read more...]

Sig Sauer SP2022: A Step In The Right Direction

November 10, 2016 by David Donchess Leave a Comment

When it comes to keeping up with the technology of the gun world, I think it is vital to keep updating and modifying your designs to stay relevant. When I first heard of the SP2022 I was a bit skeptical, to be honest. At that time I was unaware that the SP2022 was not their first ever attempt at going to polymer framed pistols. In 1998, Sig began production of their Sig PRO … [Read more...]

What You Need To Know About The Four Types Of Handgun Triggers

September 17, 2016 by David Donchess Leave a Comment

There are 4 different types of triggers that you should know about. But more importantly, you must know how they work so that you don't get confused. Let's use the double action only trigger as an example. This trigger system is very disliked by people who fancy a light trigger with little to no movement. This is considered to be one of the safest trigger systems, though. … [Read more...]

Improve your shooting: Mastery Through Adaptability

June 24, 2016 by David Donchess 1 Comment

It seems that people don’t understand that the only thing they need for complete adaptability to any platform is a steady trigger pull without disturbing their sight picture. Now this isn’t including the fact that you will have a different manual of arms requirement to run certain platforms. This will require some retraining in order to operate the gun smoothly if it has more … [Read more...]
