PEW Science Tests the OCL Infinity 556K

The rear of the Infinity 556K accepts common HUB-pattern mounts, but PEW Science specifically cautions against assuming that every compatible muzzle device will preserve the measured behavior. A device that reflects too much blast into the first expansion chamber can increase effective back pressure and compromise the suppressor's early venting.

POTD: Novel Star-Pattern Magazine Coupler from HERA Arms

Magazine couplers aren't new, but the geometry matters. HERA's CF Coupler in a three-way star configuration challenges the standard linear setup by arranging three ten-round magazines in a radial pattern around a central hub.

I was recently able to pick up a handful of sleeves of this often overlooked 36-grain offering from Remington.

The OG Whippet Shotgun Can Be Yours At Auction

If you’re unfamiliar with the story or need a brief refresher, Bonnie and Clyde were a notorious American criminal duo whose violent two-year spree unfolded across the central United States during the height of the Great Depression. They met in Texas in January 1930 and soon became romantically involved, a bond that shaped the rest of their lives. Joined by a shifting circle of accomplices known as the Barrow Gang, they moved from state to state, stealing cars and robbing small-town gas stations, grocery stores, and the occasional bank. Though popular imagination often cast them as glamorous Robin Hood figures, their day-to-day reality was grim, desperate, and rarely profitable, with many robberies yielding only modest sums.

Colorado's New Semiautomatic Firearm Purchase Rules Are Now in Effect

CPW says the August 1 provisions apply to purchases and transfers occurring on or after that date. The agency's implementation material distinguishes the new process from a registry of firearms already owned: the system records cards, training, and purchase eligibility, not a list of an individual's guns. The purchase section does not direct existing owners to apply for a card simply to keep or use a covered firearm.

Fudd Friday: The Brush-Busting Question

Quebecois guide Jason Tremblay had joined our party for the afternoon, since his client had already tagged out, and within minutes he had us on a big bull. It was my tag, and I shot first, squeezing a shot off from the 7mm Magnum when I had the crosshairs on the moose’s sternum—and nothing happened. Well, something happened—a stump directly to the left blew up as the bullet hit it. I’d been so busy shooting at the moose that I hadn’t considered the bush in front of me, which had apparently deflected the round.
