Hardware Talk: Glock Magwell Flaring Device

1 week ago | gundigest.com | Patrick Sweeney

Glocks don’t have much flair … and a whole lot of them don’t have any. Despite being functionally perfect, it took quite a while for there to be any flair, and there still isn’t much. What really caught my attention recently was the comment “Gen 5 Glocks have a magwell flare, not much of one, but there are 24 million Gen 1 through Gen 4 Glocks that have none at all.”The Glock magwell flaring device, the Flarewell, does exactly that.
MKE AP5SD Review: Better Than The Original?

1 week ago | gundigest.com | Adam Borisenko

Talk about getting your head spun. I was very excited When I heard rumors about Century Arms importing a new MP5SD-style pistol from MKE in Turkey. Then, I listened to some further details and was disappointed. Then I got one, and my opinion did a complete 180. Allow me to explain why.

First Look: BANISH 30-V2 Suppressor

2 weeks ago | gundigest.com | Adam Borisenko

The original BANISH 30 is a good suppressor, but there’s always room for improvement. So, the company set out to do just that with the new and improved BANISH 30-V2. Namely, it now features the industry-standard HUB mount and is shorter, lighter and even quieter than the first version. How does it accomplish all that? The BANISH 30-V2 features a full titanium construction. That allows it to be 1.8 ounces lighter than the original.
.270 Winchester And .300 H&H Magnum Turn 100

2 weeks ago | gundigest.com | Philip Massaro

Maintaining popularity for more than a century is quite the accomplishment in the cartridge world. For every one of the “classics” that have made that mark, there are several that fell out of vogue, and many others that have disappeared altogether. Sure, the .30-06 Springfield, .45-70 Government, .45 ACP, 9mm Luger, .22 Long Rifle and .30-30 Winchester have all made that mark, but the .30-40 Krag, .38-55 Winchester, .300 Savage and .22 Short have lost much of their following of late.

2 weeks ago | gundigest.com | Dave Merrill

Diamondback has been in the manufacturing space for decades and producing their own firearms since 2009. A believer in American production, Diamondback Firearms brings groundbreaking designs to market (a 5.7mm PDW, the DB57, was featured on the cover of sister pub RECOIL Magazine Issue 53) in quantity and at prices people can afford. Diamondback started their revolver journey a couple years ago with what many would consider a toy: the Sidekick series of .22 wheel guns.

2 weeks ago | gundigest.com | Adam Borisenko

We’ve discussed the benefits of fanny pack carry before, but the reality is that a lot of guys just don’t want to be seen wearing a fanny pack. For many, a decent alternative for off-body carry may be the sling bag. FALCO Holsters offers the G122 Sling Bag designed just for that purpose, and the company has just upgraded it based on user feedback.

Platinum Status: The Best-Selling Firearms Of All Time

3 weeks ago | gundigest.com | Patrick Sweeney

The boss asked me, “How about a musing on the most popular firearms of all time? Or the past century?”OK, I’m game … but we have to have some rules here. I mean, if we’re going to go simply by the number made, then the 1898 Mauser and the AK-47 are the tops of the top. But they were made in such volume because governments bought them. Popular had little to do with it.
