Remington 870 Competition – Hidden Features!

July 20, 2015 Ian McCollum 25
So a friend of mine handed my this Remington 870 Competition, and asked me if I would like to do a video on it…and my immediate thought was, why would I? The 870 is one […]

Elmer Keith’s ka-BOOM (Video)

July 16, 2015 Ian McCollum 27
Even the legendary Elmer Keith started out as a total newbie to shooting and reloading, and blew up a gun with wildly dangerous handloads in 1923. I got my hands on the remnants of the […]

HMG’s US-Made Sturmgewehr

July 14, 2015 Ian McCollum 43
In all the time I have been able to look at MP-43/MP-44/StG-44 rifles, one of the comments that comes up over and over is the desire for someone to make a semiauto reproduction of the gun […]

Shooting a .276 Pedersen

June 30, 2015 Ian McCollum 58
Thanks to Alex C. at TheFirearmBlog, I recently had an opportunity to do some shooting with a .276 caliber Vickers-Pedersen model PB rifle. This was one of the very first rifles Vickers built when they […]

Shooting and Disassembling A.I. AR-10 rifles (Video)

June 29, 2015 Ian McCollum 26
I had a gun-shop-owning friend offer me a chance to do a video on a Portuguese contract AR-10 made by Artillerie Inrichtingen in the Netherlands a little while back. Unfortunately, it had just sold, and […]
Single Shot Rifles

Ethan Allen Brass Falling Block Rifle at RIA

June 24, 2015 Ian McCollum 30
Ethan Allen was a very prolific gun manufacturer in the US, being involved with a series of different companies. This particular rifle of his appealed to me because it is an excellent example of how […]
Revolver

Moore Teatfire Revolver at RIA

June 22, 2015 Ian McCollum 15
The Moore patent “teatfire” revolver was one of the more (no pun intended) successful workarounds to the Rollin White patent. Designed by Daniel Moore and David Williamson, the gun was a 6-shot .32 caliber pocket […]
Bolt Action Rifles

Palmer Carbine at RIA

June 21, 2015 Ian McCollum 11
The Palmer carbine was the first bolt action firearm adopted by the US military – it was a single shot rimfire carbine patented in 1863 and sold to the US cavalry in 1865. The guns […]

Hammond Bulldog Pistol at RIA

June 18, 2015 Ian McCollum 11
Made in Naubuc Connecticut, the Hammond Bulldog was an interesting single-shot rimfire .44 caliber pistol. It used an unusual rotating breechblock, and had the potential to be a fairly strong action. Reportedly prototypes were made […]
