People have adopted the idea that a silencer/suppressor will completely silence a firearm. Well.. here are some real world tests. This project is a massive look at silencers with testing data that shows exactly what difference a suppressed firearm can make to the sound levels while shooting. To compare actual decibles of suppressed and unsuppressed rounds we used the Larson Davis Model LXT1-QPR Sound Level Meter and some common Rifle and pistol calibers. |

The thinnest .380 auto made…by a full millimeter…the snag-free Pico’s slide and frame is a true 18 mm at thier widest point. The grip frame, sights, and caliber (go from a .380 to a .32 by changing the barrel) are all simple to modify. |

For years I have worn Red Wing Boots. They work well and they last. We strolled into the Magnum Booth at shot show where they offered to send me a pair of boots to see if they could replace my Red Wings. I received them today, and I will say that these are hands down the most comfortable boot I have ever worn |

In addition, floods, storm surges and other natural threats can disable an electronic locking device. Cannon's new EMP Dual-Access Lock provides a manual combination lock as backup to the electronic lock. Threat met, threat neutralized. |

Lead Sponsor of Federal High Capacity Ban Was Unaware Magazines Could Be Reloaded These are your elected officials. The audacity of this woman to stand up and fight against an American's fundamental right to own and bears arms, without even knowing the first thing about them. She has no idea a magazine, (or Clip as these geniuses call them ) can be reloaded. I am speachless. |

Magpul Takes a Stand Against Dems in Colorado Magpul Industries based in Erie Colorado, employs over 600 people and contributed over $85 million to the states economy in 2012. But that is about to change if the Democrats have their way. Magpul states that they will relocoate thier company and take their business elsewhere if Colorado passes HB 1224 (which will limit magazine capacity to 15 rounds). Because of Magpul's stand, many of Magpul's suppliers have also followed suit. Magpul with our highest regards, our hats are off to you. - the entire team at Ballistics101.com |

Biden Shares his Vast Gun Knowledge It seems that everything I have ever been taught is completely wrong. The Vice President of the United States says firing 2 shots into the air with your shotgun is the proper way to defend yourself. If only our soldiers knew about this perhaps they would be home already! Being as well versed in combat and firearms as he is, clearly Mr. Biden simply "forgot" that in many areas discharging a firearm into the air is a felony and will land you three years in state prison. |

Remington Model 783 Remington has released their new rifle to their lineup, the Model 783. This rifle promises to be as accurate as any high dollar rifle but for few bucks less. I think the 783 is Remington's answer to the Ruger American Rifle as the are priced pretty darn close at about $400. American Rifleman got their hands on one and wrote a great review on it here. |

The Saiga 7.62x39 is proof that the Kalashnikov design is as venerable today as it has always been. With the cost of ammo on the rise, this AK variant seems like a practical solution. We ran it to hell and back and it was reliable, it was accurate and it was a blast shoot. After running it in several different configurations, we all agreed. We love this rifle in any configuration. |
