Budget Banger: Springfield Armory XD 3
Posted by SF on Oct 1st 2024
We’ve all seen the memes. There might not be a more meme(d) gun than the XD. I mean, it literally tells you where to grip it (it’s called Grip Zone). But it sold well, especially in the days when Glock and M&P were its main competitors. Over time, however, trends changed, and many manufacturers passed the XD in popularity. Springfield attempted to respond to its doubters by introducing the XDM and XD MOD.2 and early CCW stalwart XDS (I won’t even mention the XDE), but ulti

Improving Rank: Springfield Echelon Comp
Posted by SF on Sep 24th 2024
Pistol manufacturers have noticed the accessory and competition world this year. The goal of a competitive shooter is to manage recoil as best as possible to maintain a positive sight picture and improve speed between shots. In general, this is a good idea, even for the novice shooter. Many shooters in this space will add compensators to the ends of threaded barrels to aid in this. This has started a trickle-down effect where more and more shooters are adding compensators to their everyday carr

Everyday Carry: Tools that Don’t Go Bang
Posted by SF on Sep 17th 2024
Everyday Carry, or EDC as it is namely called, is an ideology that is more than simply carrying a firearm—it is a lifestyle. In the gun industry, we have spent an abundance of time building the ultimate carry pistol and fashioning accessories to make it better. But we don’t discuss everyday carry as an ideology and lifestyle. The chances of a person ever brandishing their concealed carry pistol are slim—as in minuscule. And as important as carrying that firearm is, the other t

Adventures are tantalizing. They bring about emotions and
anticipation that you didn’t know existed. While the destination or goal is the
end, the journey to get there is what’s most exciting. The hard work, research,
exploration, and due diligence culminate in the result. It’s why we start
them—and sometimes never finish—because of the journey. And that’s where we start—at
the beginning of a new adventure.Creating a Superpower Before taking a Low-Light course, I wanted to experience

Big Blue July
Posted by SF on Jul 23rd 2024
It turns out that Smith & Wesson has claimed the month
of July. It has become a bit of a trend in the firearms world for companies to
release new products throughout the year (as you’ve probably noticed by the
number of new product articles) rather than big releases at SHOT Show or NRAAM.
Bigger companies, like Smith and Sig Sauer, have released new products every
week for weeks it seems. Unfortunately, it’s come to the point where it is
difficult to sift through the marketing blasts, Inst
