Springfield Armory expanded its Saint Victor line with a handy new large-format pistol chambered in 5.56mm NATO today. The company’s Saint Victor rifles all offer premium features right out of the box, and that extends to the new large-format pistol. It sports an 11.5-inch 1:7-twist barrel made from corrosion-resistant chrome moly vanadium and tipped with a classic A2 birdcage-style flash hider.

America’s highest court on Monday dodged a legal challenge to New York’s 2022 restrictions on concealed carry rights based on broad and ill-defined “moral character” and “sensitive location” criteria. The decision sends the case back to the lower courts for further consideration, if any. It’s a move that comes after the Empire State thumbed its nose at a previous high court decision in the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen.

April Fools' Day is usually worth a chuckle or two, but 2025 had a better-than-average showing for humor in the firearms industry. While I could say something whimsical to kick off our funny list this year, I think Magpul summed up my general advice for how to handle April Fools’ Day and, frankly, most other days of the year as far as I’m concerned. So, let’s just dive right in: 1.

In a move that’s strikingly fit for the times, one of only two ornate shotguns brought to the U.S. by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev during the Cold War as a peace offering surfaced at auction this week. The exceptionally crafted hammerless side-by-side shotgun was presented for sale in Pennsylvania by The Raab Collection, which has handled important historical documents from the likes of Neil Armstrong, Thomas Jefferson, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Ronald Reagan.

Overview: Vortex Edge Training Vortex sums up its company mission with three simple words: people, products, and promises. Tucked just a few miles away from the Wisconsin state capital in Madison, Vortex Edge is fulfilling the “promises” portion of that mission with friendly, professional, and challenging training for all shooters.

If you haven’t heard of Arex or the Delta Gen 2, you’re hardly alone. This Glock clone is both an improved version of the Glock 17 Gen 3 and a bargain steal for the price. Arex offers a host of color and size options for its Delta line of pistols. However, for me, the shining data point is the fact that this hammerless striker-fired gun uses a double-action trigger. At a price that’s under the normal street value for even used Glocks, these guns don’t get the love they deserve.

First Impressions Best known for its affordably priced youth-sized Crickett and Chipmunk bolt-action rifles and pistols, Keystone also dabbles in youth precision shooting with its Model 6061 and 722 rifles. But it’s the company’s “mil-surp” line of mini replica battle rifles that had me doing a double take the first time I saw them in person. This gun brings out my love of history and shooting sports, especially as an entry point for young shooters.

It has been a while since we’ve seen big-letter news revolving around Tikka’s T-series bolt-action rifles, but 2025 is red hot. Tikka dropped its trump card at SHOT Show 2025 with a new lineup called Ace, upping the ante on both the T1x rimfire and T3x centerfire families. We got our hands on all three model variants – the T1x Ace Target, T3x Ace Target, and T3x Ace Game – at the company’s hopping booth at SHOT Show in Las Vegas this year. Here’s the scoop.

Innovative New Handguns This year’s SHOT Show offered a smorgasbord of handguns, with a special emphasis on optics-ready designs. That even included a growing list of optics-ready revolvers. Here are some of our favorites from range day. If we’re being honest, KelTec’s exciting but borderline bizarre rotary-barrel P57 stole a lot of attention in the handgun arena this year.
