Update 4/12/2012: The Smith & Wesson Shield has arrived! Today at 12:00 noon EST, Smith & Wesson released the second puzzle piece clue to their new pistol on their Facebook page. If you missed it, here you go!

I know I sure have. Gun safety is everyone’s concern, and is the most important thing you can learn about firearms. If you’re a new shooter, […]
A good belt is not the same as a good gun belt. If you’ve been carrying for very long, you’ve probably discovered that your belt can make or break your experience. The reason for this is simple: most belts aren’t stiff enough to hold the weight of a gun and holster, let alone the added […]
