GLOCK 43X 9mm Review: Two Pistols Tested Over 600 Rounds

Kimber 1911 DS Warrior LW Review: 9mm Range Test
The double-stack 1911 market is crowded and increasingly expensive. Kimber’s $1,100 DS Warrior LW enters with familiar controls, 20-round capacity and a grip that came alive during controlled pairs and reload drills.

Springfield SAINT Victor 5.5-Inch 9mm PDW Review: 100- to 147-Grain Range Test
Will Dabbs spent years believing Army aircrews needed something more capable than a service pistol if they went down behind enemy lines. Decades later, Springfield might've finally delivered. He took the 5.5-inch, 32-round 9mm Springfield SAINT Victor PDW to the range to test its recoil, control and reliability.

Taurus Deputy Dual Cylinder Review: 9mm, .38 Special and .357 Magnum Tested
Brian McCombie expected the Taurus Deputy’s Old West styling to be the story. Then he started changing cylinders and feeding the same six-gun 9mm, .38 Special and .357 Magnum. Across rested groups and offhand shooting, the Deputy proved more practical than its cowboy profile suggested.

Springfield Armory Echelon 4.0FC COA Review: Three-Load Range Test
The original Echelon had already set a high bar. Then Springfield shortened the slide to four inches and mounted an Aimpoint COA deep in the A-CUT. Three 9mm loads would show whether this carry-focused version gave anything up.

Springfield Armory SA-35 4-Inch Review: Five-Load Test at 25 Yards
Polymer-framed, optics-ready pistols have become the concealed-carry default. Brad Fitzpatrick carried and range-tested the opposite: 29.8 ounces of forged steel, walnut grips and a single-action trigger. Five 9mm loads at 25 yards would show whether the shortened SA-35 still earns room in a modern holster.

Taurus 58 .380 Review: 200-Round Range Test With Seven Loads
Most .380 pistols shrink the gun around the cartridge. Taurus went the other way, reviving the Model 58 as a full-size, 15-round alternative—and we put that idea through a 200-round range test.

LTT Beretta PX4 Compact Carry 2 Review: Specs, Price and Full Range Test
Beretta answered the striker-fired era with a hammer-fired pistol whose barrel rotates a quarter turn instead of tilting. Langdon Tactical spent a decade refining it. The result runs like a Swiss watch—and costs the same as one too.

Springfield Echelon 4.0FC Review: Full-Size 9mm, Range Tested
Will Dabbs bought the first Echelon he ever picked up. Springfield has since mated that full-size frame to a compact slide, and what came out is a duty pistol you can hide under a t-shirt without giving up a single round.

Ruger and Magpul spent three years building a $499 answer to the Glock 19. Here's how 18 of them performed against 20,000 rounds in a single week.

Daniel Defense H9 Review: A 1911-Style Striker 9mm, Range Tested
Hudson Arms had the hottest gun at SHOT Show 2017 and was bankrupt inside of two years. Daniel Defense bought the patents and spent four years rebuilding the H9 so thoroughly that exactly one part carries over. We took it to the range to see what survived.

KelTec PR-5.7 Review: Range Test With Three 5.7x28mm Loads
Will Dabbs has carried a gun every waking hour for decades and long ago made peace with the discomfort. Then KelTec sent him a 13-ounce pistol that holds 21 rounds and loads from the top like a Mauser. Months later, he's struggling to go back.
