Rifle Review: Cadex's CDX-R7 Sporter
Cadex Defence has spent years earning its reputation in the precision rifle world. Their chassis systems, competition platforms, and tactical rifles have shown up at PRS matches, on military contracts, and in the hands of long-range shooters who take accuracy personally. So when Cadex turned its attention to the hunting market with the CDX-R7 Sporter, the question was never whether they could build a capable rifle. The question was whether a company wired for sub-MOA obsessio

Pistol Review: CZ USA's Shadow 2 Target TALO
CZ has never been shy about iterating on the Shadow 2 platform. Between the standard model, the Orange, the Compact, the Gold Digger, and assorted other variants, the Shadow 2 family tree has more branches than most manufacturers' entire catalogs. But the Shadow 2 Target TALO, available in both 5-inch and 6-inch configurations, is something genuinely different. This is not another action pistol variant with a cosmetic twist. This is CZ building a purpose-driven bullseye and p

Revolver Review: Freedom Arms' Model 97 Custom Engraved
Some guns are built to be used. Some are built to be admired. And then, every once in a while, someone commissions a gun that is meant to do both. This custom engraved Freedom Arms Model 97 in .45 Colt is that kind of gun. A 3.5-inch barreled, round-butt, five-shot single action with full coverage scroll engraving on a platform that was already, before anyone touched it with a chisel, one of the most precisely built production revolvers in the world. -- The Foundation: Freedo

Revolver Review: Spohr’s SPCE6 Club Edition
Every so often you come across a gun that makes you reconsider what you thought you knew about a category. For me, the Spohr SPCE6 Club Edition is that gun. Not because it reinvents the wheel. The double-action revolver is about as mechanically settled as firearms get. But because it takes that settled platform and executes it at a level that makes you wonder what everyone else has been doing all this time. -- A Small Shop With a Big Reputation Spohr is not a household name i

Revolver Review: Spohr Club SPCE-LE - Ten Revolvers. That’s It.
I want to talk about a revolver that most people will never see in person, let alone hold. And honestly, that is part of what makes it worth talking about. The Spohr SPCE-LE6 and SPCE-LE5 are the Limited Edition entries in the Club Edition line from Spohr, a small German manufacturer that most American shooters are only just beginning to hear about. These are not production guns in any meaningful sense of the word. Five revolvers with 6-inch barrels. Five with 5-inch barrels.

Pistol Review: HK's VP9A1 X Crossover & Tactical
If you've been following HK's VP9 rollout over the past year, you could be forgiven for needing a spreadsheet to keep track. The VP9A1 F, the VP9A1 K, optics-ready versions, optics-equipped versions, restricted-state configurations. It has been a lot. But buried inside that expanding catalog is a configuration that quietly makes the most sense for the widest range of shooters: the VP9A1 X, and its suppressor-friendly sibling, the VP9A1 X Tactical. -- What the "X" Actually Mea

Rifle Review: Blaser's R8 Pro 2.0
Most rifle manufacturers talk about innovation. Blaser just quietly builds the most popular hunting rifle in Europe and then, after a decade of proven field use, makes it better. The R8 Professional 2.0, officially introduced in late 2025, is not a reinvention. It is a refinement of a platform that has already earned its place in hunting camps from the Black Forest to the Alaskan bush. And it arrives with just enough meaningful upgrades to make existing R8 owners look twice a

Pistol Review: CZ USA's P-10F Competition
Most competition-oriented pistols start life on the range and eventually trickle down into the tactical and duty world. The CZ P-10 F Competition-Ready took the opposite route. Born from a polymer-framed, striker-fired service pistol, this gun was worked over with match-day intentions until it became something the original P-10 C probably never imagined it would be: a genuine contender at your local USPSA club match, right out of the box. -- CZ and the P-10 Lineage CZ (Ceska

Shotgun Review: SKB's 90TSS Sporting
There's a particular kind of frustration that comes with shopping for a sporting clays over/under. You know what you want; adjustable stock, reliable ejectors, decent barrels, and a trigger that doesn't feel like it was designed as an afterthought. You also know what you can afford. And those two realities rarely overlap. The SKB 90TSS Sporting lives in that tension, and it does a surprisingly convincing job of resolving it. -- The Brand Behind the Barrels SKB's story is more
