Savage Arms has teamed up with Hogue to introduce the 110 Trail Hunter — a rugged hunting rifle designed to stand up to the elements, no matter the conditions. Hogue’s overmolded rifle stocks have long been known to provide outstanding performance and grip. The full coverage OD Green rubber overmold on the stock provides the user with a superior hold on the rifle in all conditions, while the Cerakote ceramic coating on the barreled action helps to seal out the worst that mother nature can dish out. |

The most common small caliber rifle besides the AR-15 in circulation is the humble .22 rifle. Plinkers, squirrel guns, whatever you want to call them, they are and have been with us for more than a century. What I’d like to suggest is that the humble .22 LR rifle, especially in semi-auto though not necessarily exclusively, is overlooked somewhat as a defensive arm in the civilian context. Optimal? No…but viable? Maybe more so than one might think.

A gun store in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has been raided by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) for selling forced reset triggers (FRTs) and pistols equipped with stabilizing devices.
The store, Shooters Den, was at the center of controversy last month for confiscating a gun owner’s privately manufactured firearms (PMF) for not having a serial number. |

Whether outfitting a youngster, intriguing a spouse, or attracting a late-to-the sport elder, setting a newbie up for success starts with an appropriate firearm. A gun that fits well, is user-friendly, and available in appropriate chamberings will help them shoot well. When they shoot well on the range, they’ll be more confident and, ultimately, successful in the field. We’ve hashed out some of the lowest-recoil and shoulder-gentle chamberings, but this one is all about the actual gun. Whether shopping new or used, finding an ideal hunting rifle needn’t be costly. Here are a few solid starting points. |

Featuring a quick-change barrel system, full-length ARCA rail, and an easy folding stock, the newest Cross rifle from SIG starts off in .300 Win Mag. The new model, some four years in development, brings magnum-class calibers to the Cross family of bolt-action rifles. While chambered in .300 Win Mag, at least for starters, SIG says the action length of the Cross Magnum is capable of cartridges as long as .300 PRC, hinting at the future. First introduced in 2019, Cross up until this week has only been available in 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Winchester, and .277 SIG Fury. |

He passed away a few years ago, having left an indelible mark in firearms news reporting, editing and publishing.

The Supreme Court signaled again this week that it would allow the federal government to regulate so-called “ghost guns,” despite legal challenges. In an unsigned order on Tuesday, the justices blocked a lower court ruling that had prevented a rule by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives targeting prefabricated gun-building kits from going into effect. The move cements a significant setback for gun rights advocates who hoped the high court might be more favorable toward the kits.

Mayor Sheldon Neeley told MLive-The Flint Journal this week that he’s arranged for a metal detector to be in place for council committee meetings on Wednesday, Oct. 18, because of rising political tensions and recent threats against public officials.

From the late 1950s to the early 2000s, two of the most popular rimfire cartridges on the planet were the 22 Long Rifle and the 22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, otherwise known as the 22 WMR or 22 Mag. Generations of shooters (myself included) were taught how to shoot using a 22 LR bolt-action rifle before hunting varmints like coyotes and groundhogs with a 22 WMR.

By now, I’m sure we’ve all heard the story of Eli Dicken, who singlehandedly stopped an active shooter at the Greenwood Mall in Indiana. You’ve probably also seen some viral posts floating around about the so-called “Dicken Drill,” giving folks an opportunity to recreate what is currently understood as the events of that day.
