Let’s get one thing out of the way: I’ve been sitting on this Springfield Armory Hellcat Review for some time now, and I’ve been carrying this particular firearm nearly since it’s release. There have been plenty of other articles related to the Springfield Armory Hellcat that I’ve done over the years, but never an in-depth…

Rock Island Armory is known for a wide variety of firearms products — most of my friends know them for quality, entry-level 1911s. They’ve now added a new, more premium option for their firearm lineup — the RIA 5.0. And people are losing their ever-loving minds. What is it? The RIA 5.0, which the Armscor…

Palmetto State Armory’s at it again. The same company that brought us the Rock and Dagger is taking a leap into yesteryear with a replica of the German-made STG-44. It’s part of what’s being called the Battlefield line, which is PSA doing what a bunch of history nerds have been hoping for for years. PSA…
