Notes On A Horrible Firearms Class
From Swift Silent Deadly:
I hate to write a bad review, but the tipping point for this one was safety, which we’ll get to. In addition to at least one egregious safety violation, there was all around bad instructional methodology throughout. My purpose in writing this is to tease out some lessons-learned, rather than just complain.I have also tried to provide some good, real-world examples of instructors who do a great job in these areas.
Before we get into it: one important note: I am not going to name this instructor here. I grappled with this decision, and reached out to a couple other, more experienced bloggers for their opinions, because I don’t want you to spend your money on him, but I also don’t want to fuel drama in the gun industry. If you think you may be attending one of his classes, contact me and I may confirm or deny the instructor’s name. I reserve the right to make a case-by-case decision on this, however.
Hi-Point Yeet Cannon Finally Released
From Guns.com:
Ohio-based Hi-Point Firearms finally ended the long wait for its illusive “Yeet Cannon” pistol when it unveiled the brand-new 9mm YC9 today. This is one of those guns that has been living rent-free in my head for several years now.
Arrival of the YC9 was first expected back in 2019, but Hi-Point continued to work on the gun for years under a veil of secrecy. Now, the newly employee-owned and operated company – as of last year – has YC9s rolling out to distributors’ shelves as I write this review. Thankfully, I didn’t have to wait until the release.
Comparing Four Popular Carry Pistols
From The Truth About Guns:
Shooting the SIG SAUER P365, Springfield Hellcat, Ruger MAX-9, and Smith & Wesson M&P9 Shield Plus (listed in order of when they were released) back-to-back-to-back-to-back, the following is our takeaways on how these four fantastic little pistols stack up.
Ruger MAX-9
From The Truth About Guns:
With an onboard capacity of 10+1 rounds flush fit and 12+1 rounds extended, Ruger’s new MAX-9 takes aim at the incredibly hot market for micro-compact pistols with double-digit capacities. Equipped with a tritium and fiber optic front sight and an optics-ready slide at an MSRP of just $499 (less on Brownells), the MAX-9 undercuts the competition on features for the dollar.
Springfield Hellcat Review
From Guns.com:
Introduced in fall 2019, the Hellcat caught the attention of the industry with its small stature but impressive capacity. Boasting 13+1 rounds with an extended mag and 11+1 with the flush fit mag, the Hellcat aimed to offer concealed carriers the ability to flawlessly conceal without sacrificing much in the way of capacity.
.32 ACP For Self Defense
From Lucky Gunner:
The results of our latest round of self-defense ammo ballistic gelatin testing are now live at Lucky Gunner Labs. This time, we tested eight different pocket pistol calibers. In last week’s video, I made some ammo recommendations based on the results from our .22 LR and .22 Magnum tests. This week, I’m looking at what happened in our .32 ACP tests.
ATF Changes Accessory Review
From Guns.com:
“Effective immediately, any requests for a determination on how an accessory affects the classification of a firearm under the GCA or NFA must include a firearm with the accessory already installed,†noted ATF. “Except in cases of conditional import determinations, FTISB will not issue a determination on an accessory unless it is attached to the submitted firearm.â€
