Editor’s Pick: Gun Digest Illustrated Guide to Modern Firearms
We’ve had a very bright and sweet intern from one of the colleges in the region working for us this summer, and yesterday, along with the other interns, she gave a, “What I did during my summer internship” presentation. Seems she did enjoy our time with us, but one comment she made that really [...]
Editor’s Pick: Gun Digest Shooter’s Guide to the 1911
My first handgun, technically, was a Thompson/Center Contender in .221 Fireball. As much fun as that one was to play around with for target shooting, it was hardly a suitable gun for self-defense. I moved from there to a stainless, two-inch barreled S&W 686 revolver, and then to a SIG Sauer P230 in stainless. [...]
A Lesson in Big-Bore Revolvers
Out of all the books I’ve edited since I started with F&W Media and Gun Digest just about a year ago, Big-Bore Revolvers by Max Prasac probably ranks as my favorite so far. What got me hooked, even at the first chapter, was Max’s unabashed and outright passion for anything and everything that’s bigger [...]
Great Information on Vintage Guns
I’ve long had an affinity for fine shotguns and double rifles, even if my wallet hasn’t, but I’ve been fortunate enough to have at least drooled over some very fine and outrageously expensive guns firsthand and even shoot a few now and again. I remember, in particular, one little gun shop in Easton, Maryland, that [...]
Editor’s Pick: Gun Digest Action Shooting Pack
Not to beat a dead horse here, but after I told you last week about the new Chad Adams book, The Complete Guide to 3-Gun Competition, we came up with a package that anyone even remotely interested in getting involved in the sport is going to love. In addition to this new book, we [...]
Secure Your CCW With A Solid Belt
A cheap belt will not serve you well as you carry a concealed firearm. It will twist and droop. The Blackhawk Pistol Belt uses an internal stiffener to insure your pistol stays tight and close to your body. These carbon-fiber and lizard skin finished belts give you the same appearance as any other 1 [...]
Editor’s Pick: Complete Guide to 3-Gun Competition
Back in the day, I had a boyfriend who shot IPSC matches. (International Practical Shooters Confederation is the global parent of USPA, the United States Practical Shooting Association.) I’d met him while I was working in a retail gun store in Northern Virginia, one that had an indoor handgun range that hosted a bunch [...]
Review: Blackhawk SOCOM Tactical Pistol Case
Looking for a tough, discrete tactical pistol case that will hold everything you need? Blackhawk’s SOCOM tactical pistol case looks like any other soft-sided briefcase, but is built to contain everything you need for your concealed carry or duty pistol. It works perfectly as a range bag, a duty bag or even an emergency [...]
Gun Digest 2013—It’s Finally Here!
For all you loyal Gun Digest annual readers out there who’ve been chompin’ at the bit for this year’s edition, you can breathe a side of relief, pull up a comfy chair, and settle in for a good long read, because it’s finally here! Gun Digest 2013 is on bookstore shelves. I had the [...]
Concealed Carry Tips for the Thinking Shooter
We had originally toyed with a subtitle for the Armed: The Essential Guide to Concealed Carry book that read, The Thinking Man’s Guide to Concealed Carry. Alas, we went with what appears on the cover, but the original thesis behind this book is still there, and that is the thought that goes into carrying [...]
