States Target Discrimination Against Firearms Industry

Anti-gun advocates often are shocked to learn that they are in the minority when they can't get legislation passed banning guns or limiting gun ownership in one way or another; of course, that doesn't stop them from searching for other ways to accomplish their goals.

Gun Review: Springfield Armory DS Prodigy

The half-steel, half-polymer Model 1911 pistol design, brought to the market by the late Chip McCormick, swept through the competition circuit like a tropical storm back in the early 1990s.
