Chris and I took a quick lunch break and went down the street to a local range to try out the all new Taurus G3 Tactical. We were both highly impressed with this gun not only did it feel good in our hands it actually shot very well. i have posted our review down below i hope you enjoy it!…
Thanks to Chris “Gunfucious” for making it happen. Chris worked all day yesterday and today to get this out on time. Thanks to MMP Guns and Eric for being so supportive of our project. Hell of a job by B and Joe. Merry Christmas to all. Enjoy, and please spread the word. Subscribe, upvote, comment and whatever else will help.…

Andrew Chung WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday dealt a blow to the firearms industry, rejecting Remington Arms Co’s bid to escape a lawsuit by families of victims aiming to hold the gun maker liable for its marketing of the assault-style rifle used in the 2012 Sandy Hook school massacre that killed 20 children and six adults.…
Brownell’s is running a sale on Aguila 22 Super Extra The code is MDX, drops the price to $89.95 and free shipping. That’s $17.99 per brick. I check the code and ordered my 5 bricks this morning. Stack it deep while it’s cheap. I use this ammo a lot, and it’s pretty good and fairly clean shooting.
In case you missed it the first time around, this was the write up. And this is our range review.

Welcome to the 2nd episode of the Kickin’ Brass Podcast. We ran into some technical difficulties, but thanks to Chris our production engineer, we were able to get it done. Big thanks as always to MMP Guns for their support, Eric and the crew have been fantastic. A huge shout out to Ursula Williams for working a full shift, and…
Thank you for your patience. Big thanks to MMP Guns, Byron, Eric, and Chris for their hard work. We hope you enjoy it. Season 1, Episode 1… enjoy.
In the past 4-5 years, we have seen the proliferation of “micro sized” 380 ACP and 9mm pistols appear on the scene. These light weight and tiny polymer pistols are being produced by leading manufacturers throughout the industry covering all price points, from Taurus to Kimber. Until recently, the Kahr CM9 had been the smallest 9mm that I have seen…
The weather is cooling down in the Valley of the Sun, which means one thing for us at Justapewreviews.com It’s time… for some Desert Time. Imperial Arms has been busy building AK variants, and MMP Guns placed an order for some exclusive in house builds. One which caught my eyes was the Magpul edition made specifically for MMP Guns. When…
I had a discussion about “Assault Weapons” last night with a commenter that has been on our forum before. An intelligent person with very limited gun knowledge. During our conversation, I was reminded of how much knowledge is lost on good people. This person isn’t anti gun, just anti “what the MSM and politicians have made guns out to be”.…

There are some items which I consider a must have for my personal home defense shotgun. For me, there is a difference between a home defense shotgun and a combat, go to war, SHTF, or tactical shotgun. My HD shotgun is set up for the DEFENSE of my home, and built around my training, experience, proficiency and physical make up.…
The Winchester M97 is the most famous, or infamous depending on which end of the barrel you’re residing, Trench Gun. It gave rise to many other shotguns which were built or modified to function as close quarter combat shotguns. As war moved away from the trenches of Europe, to house to house and street to street, it was still viable…
The questions I get asked the most often about body armor is…does it work? And do you own any? Those seem like easy questions, and the second one is easy to answer. Yes, I do own both soft and hard body armor, and I have a kits which include both. The first question is a little more complex, and requires…
Of all the somewhat “affordable” Colt 1911s around, my personal favorite is the Gold Cup National Match line. Outside of a 1911a1 vintage war models, which I don’t want to drop the coin on, this series is the one which most retains the classic looks, with modern improvisations that don’t take away from the original spirit of a 1911. All…
Good news for Taurus and Laser fans. Typically speaking, a revolver with a laser will run in the $600-$1000 dollar mark, depending on the brand of laser and revolver a person may opt for. The Crimson Trace lasers retail for $300 on most models. Add that to a $300-$700 revolver, and one can see how I arrived at the price…
I have never been a big fan of Kimber. I always thought they made a good gun, but always over priced. Kimber fans, like fans of any other maker, made the gun overly hyped in my opinion. There wasn’t any thing about the 1911s that put it at the top of the class. I had a Desert Warrior, a Stainless…
Is there a more iconic 80s movie line than “say hello to my little friend”? I remember seeing Scarface while sneaking into the theaters with my buddy and his 18 year old brother. We were well under 17, back in the day when they actually denied entrance to underage kids for R rated movies. Luckily my buddy’s brother was dating…
Don’t look now but revolvers are making a steady come back. I can understand why. The Market is flooded with polymer guns. Gucci Glocks abound, HK and SIG have a multitude of varieties on their striker fire polymer frame pistols. The latest craze in EDC is the single stack slim line semi autos. 1911 makers like Kimber are turning out…
Many gun manufacturers are producing guns which are described as “practical/tactical”. The first time I heard the term used was my introduction to the Glock 34. The G34 is a base gun for competition shooters, but is also favored by gun owners for self defense and OWB carry when concealment is not a priority. It’s the gun John Wick uses…
When I was in my freshman year in college Miami Vice made its debut. My dad and I watched the pilot episode together, and we would go on to watch most of that series together when I was able to get home from college. I would watch the original broadcast on Friday, and come home and watch it with my…
Back in the prohibition days, it was not uncommon for a household to keep a double barrel 20 gauge in pistol form at the ready for burglars. If you remember the movie “The Untouchables”, Sean Connery famously wielded the gun while saying the “knife to a gun fight” line before being mowed down by a Thompson Machine Gun. If you…
If you have followed the series up to this point, you now have a pretty solid foundational understanding of silencers. You know what they are, how they work, what they really do, the legalities of obtaining one within the law, and now it’s just a matter of finding one that’s right for you if you are interested. Gladly, you will…
Let’s begin with the obvious disclaimer. I’m not an attorney, or a firearms professional. Please research your own local laws, and last but not least, DO NOT BREAK or CIRCUMVENT NFA LAWS. I don’t even joke about NFA laws. The system is not set up to help gun owners, and mistakes can be costly. Having said that, acquiring a silencer, and using it…
If you have read part 2 of this series, you are probably disappointed to find out, or already knew, silencers are not as quiet as they are portrayed in the movies. The most quiet silencers on the market today will bring the sound of a subsonic 22lr pistol down to about 100-110 decibels. That’s as loud as a lawn mower…
I often wonder how many hours of TV commercials, movies, social media, video games lead a kid to decide to eat a Tide Pod. Regardless of the number of hours required, the bottom line is the entertainment industry, and mass media can accomplish an amazing job of persuading human beings to lose all common sense. Add that to the decreasing…
In today’s society, individualism is the rule of the day. Anything that can be owned, can be customized to a specific person’s taste. From cars to tattoos, it seems you are who you “appear” to be to the world. Considering that “never judge a book by its cover” is a saying that has been around longer than I have…
Let me preface this discussion by reminding the the readers that I’m just posing my opinion. I’m not an attorney, nor am I a “gun expert”. I’m just like everyone of you. My opinion and conclusions are drawn from research and advise from people who are professionals, and my own personal research. I agree that any shooting which results in death…
If you have been following the series thus far, you’re probably saying “get to the point already, what do gun and ammo choices have to do with modifications? Just tell me what not to do on my guns, and show me some examples.” Well, if it were that simple, I wouldn’t be writing multi part discussion about what I…
Gun modifications can be done to virtually any part of the gun. The biggest “customization” you can make is choosing the guns themselves. The media, social media, educational system, entertainment industry are waging a propaganda war on the 2A for the anti gun faction of the government as we speak. Basically, guns are bad, and gun owners are worse. Public…
Guns have been called the “Barbie Dolls” for enthusiasts. It has been increasingly popular to “accessorize” or modify guns to suit personal tastes in the past decade or so. A person can paint, add lights, lasers, optics, illuminated sights, graphics, grip panels, lighter triggers, and the list goes on. Most modifications, or “mods”, are done for 2 primary reasons, looks…
From the first time buyer picking out his or her first firearm for the E.D.C. to the veteran operator practicing with your 3rd “Tacticool” AR-15 for the fort, the first and last thing on your mind should always be, “is the firearm SAFE?” Rule #1: Assume all guns are loaded always. Always check to make sure that the firearm is…
Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow were the most famous gangster couple in history. From 1932 to 1934, during the height of the Great Depression, their gang evolved from petty thieves to nationally-known bank robbers and murderers. The gang was believed responsible for at least 13 murders, including two policemen, as well as several robberies and kidnappings. \ Before dawn on May…
1, Dirty Harry(1971) Clint Eastwood Favorite Line “I know what you’re thinking. ‘Did he fire six shots or only five?’ Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got…
New from SHOT Show 2019 this year is another offering from Taurus. I know Taurus deserves some flack from their lemons in the past, but as of late, they have been innovative and have produced a reliable product. Case in point is their G2C, which has gotten great reviews from the gun community, including me. For 2019 they are…
As an avid blogger on the topic of firearms, I spend a lot of my time researching guns, the gun industry, and other gun blogs or website. A comment that I hear made often is that the gun public is bored with polymer striker designs. To some degree, I do agree with that sentiment. I’m just looking at the offerings…
Good Monday afternoon Armed Citizens of America. It’s the start of another week. It’s also SHOT 2019 week! I strive to keep our readers up to date with the latest innovations in the firearms industry. With the help of industry insiders like our own Joe Escobar of MMP guns, I’m able to get us sneak peeks of 2019 offerings from major and…
The PDW, personal defense weapon, is a niche that has taken the gun industry by storm. With the ATF declaring that one can incidentally touch a pistol brace to the shoulder in the act of shooting without becoming a immediate felon, any version of a shortened rifle equipped with a pistol brace can be classified as a personal defense…
With Shot Show around the corner, there’s many exciting rumors surrounding this gun extravaganza that have people on social media anticipating the possible release of brand new guns from certain manufacturers. So far, Kel-tec has confirmed the release of two brand new guns – the KS7 shotgun and CP33 22LR pistol. The KS7 consists of a single tube and what’s interesting is that it…
I just got around to reading my American Rifleman articles for the month. One of the articles was regarding self defense carry guns. The jist of the article was advice from the author stating don’t buy cheap self defense guns because you don’t want to skimp when your life depends on it. He went on to state to buy the…
My fondness for the double barrel shotgun extends beyond its connection to the past. The classic lines, double hammers, blued steel and walnut stocks aside, it is a weapon that still has relevance today. One of which is providing the ability to fire any shell the gun is chambered for. In some cases, shells that would choke up the most…
As our readers know, I’m a huge gun enthusiast. It’s been that way since I can remember. I have owned many types and styles of firearms throughout the last 35 years. One classification of firearms I have little experience in is black powder. Over the years, many preppers I have run across have been proponents of black powder weapons…
Here in 2019, weapon lights are a dime a dozen. There are a hundred different manufactures making various designed weapon lights that mount on the rail of your firearm. Getting a new light for your home defense Glock or even your EDC Glock is very common these days, after purchasing a light people usually have trouble finding a holster that…
In the first part of this series, I gave a description of what an Active Shooter Kit might be. I also covered why I think it’s an essential part of our preparation for today’s volatile, and hostile world. While there may be some crossover between an Active Shooter Kit and a Bug Out Bag, there is a distinction between…
For those of you who are unaware, there is a rebellion in France. It is being named the Yellow Vest movement. These are French citizens who are tired of the Globalist stranglehold on their country. Their President Emmanuel Macron had proposed an ongoing “Green Diesel Tax” (sounds familiar?) which would drive diesel prices up 7 cents per gallon and continue…
I’m back from the range. I was accompanied by a good friend and fellow gun enthusiast yesterday. We picked half a case of Winchester 115 grain FMJ and 100 rounds of Tula Ammo (100 rounds of Winchester went through another gun). We got to a nearby range and set about finding out whether the various reviews in gun rags were…
In 2016 Bond Arms Inc bought the patent and rights of the XR9 from Boberg Arms. Later on Bond Arms released a all new improved version of the XR9 calling it the bullpup 9. Bond Arms are only doing a very limited production of these pistols only 150 per month. When you hear the word “bullpup” you automatically assume…
Like many little boys growing up in the mid 70s and 80s, I watched a lot of movies about World War 2 and the Vietnam. It was height of the Cold War Era. All Eastern Bloc weapons were considered crude and junk pile material. After the fall of the Berlin Wall and the demise of the USSR, a flood of…
Streamlight TLR-7 The Streamlight TLR-7 is a led pistol light that produces 500 lumens of power in a compact design. The TLR-7 features a low profile ambidextrous switch and takes a single CR123A lithium battery. Like the TLR-2 listed above the TLR-7 also features the rail grip clamp system for quick attach/detach. The Low-profile design prevents snagging…
The gun that won the west in my eyes was the Colt Single Action Army 45-caliber “Peace Maker”. Anyone who grew up watching Westerns on TV or Clint Eastwood as a child will remember this gun fondly. To me, it is the most beautiful revolver ever made. The lines are classic. The caliber stout enough to handle any job…
If you have read the title, and you are still reading, God bless you. It’s been my life long aspiration to reach out to those who want to arm themselves but are not knowledgeable about firearms. It is easy to be intimidated by the endless choices and opinions available in the gun world today. Many Americans are also on a…
After the release of the 19x earlier this year, people fell in love with the merger between the G19 (slide) and the G17 (frame). A short time later, people hit the forums hard suggesting the 19x to be made in a black finish. I’ve personally grown to like the coyote color presented on the 19x but I know its not…
We had our website down due to hosting issues. We shouldn’t have any issues from here on out. i apologize about how long its been down, i hope everyone is safe and happy. Hope to here from you guys!!!
One would think I’m being paranoid and screaming conspiracy theory or world conspiracy against American gun owners. But the truth is as of Dec 26, 2019, the UN is accepting job applications to for a paramilitary-style group to disarm U.S. citizens. And they’re encouraging women to apply because they want to achieve 50/50 integration. This is the link to the…
To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last. Date: 2019,18th, 1:43 am. E.S.T. I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend’s purse and earrings. I can…
https://www.fox46charlotte.com/news/gaston-county-commissioners-plan-to-vote-to-become-2nd-amendment-sanctuary-county GASTON COUNTY, N.C. – A second county in as many days hopes to pass a law, preventing future laws from impacting gun owners. Gaston County Commissioners plan to vote at the end of this month to make the county a ‘2nd Amendment Sanctuary’ county. “As the old saying goes, guns don’t kill people, people kill people,” said Gaston County Commissioner, Jack…
“And, by the way, my rights don’t end where your feelings begin,” the students said. “Come and take it.” https://townhall.com/tipsheet/bethbaumann/2020/01/08/students-for-2a-tell-anti-gunners-to-come-and-take-it-n2559219 This is what I have been hoping Americans would do. Stop reaching out to the defective mentally retarded, the communist indoctrinated, the “undecided”, rather, start with the blank slate of the committed and unsoiled minds. These 15,000 young Americans and…
The Demonrats went after the NRA with the proposed law below. The only range in the state that meets those specific requirements is the NRA range at the Fairfax headquarters building, though it now seems possible a few of the large multi-location stores that have a indoor range could be affected as well. Be it enacted by the General Assembly…
“Whilst it was unclear what the actual number will be, Representative Gregg Takayama gave the impression that the starting point would be five rounds,” said the HFC via social media. “This would not only significantly reduce the number of rounds in rifles, but would also reduce the number of rounds allowed in pistols by 50 percent.” If my Sheriff or Police Captain…
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/virginia-beach-passes-resolution-to-make-itself-a-second-amendment-sanctuary-gun-owners/ The Virginia Beach City Council, by a 6 to 4 vote, adopted a resolution Monday declaring itself a “Second Amendment Constitutional City.” It stated “its continued commitment to support all provisions of the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia, including the right of the people to keep and bear arms.” With all…
I personally have mixed feelings about this but I don’t live in New York City. This is exactly what communism leads to. It’s going to happen in other areas too as long as the far left keeps imposing their agenda.
