TFB Review: Beretta 92GTS Full Size Standard

The Beretta 92GTS is one of Beretta’s newest versions of its famous 92 line. If you’re unfamiliar with the 92 line, it is an aluminum-framed, hammer-fired legend of a pistol. The 92GTS is different from the 92 of old, but it isn't a full redesign. I bought a certified used Beretta 92GTS. I shot about 500 rounds through it, both in a match and at a range, and I'm ready to give an opinion and review.

Best 9mm Carry Ammo 

Ever since the dawn of the pistol, we’ve always sought to optimize the projectiles we shoot at those who are threatening us. Throughout history, we’ve seen the simple round ball shot evolve into all sorts of shapes, and eventually into the sleek, high ballistic coefficient, and complex expanding bullet designs meant for the greatest terminal effect out of the shortest barrels. With such a long history of developing ammunition, humanity has a long laundry list of even just 9mm cartridges that many people would consider carrying for self-defense. How do you sort through all of that? Today I’m going to give you what I and a lot of the TFB staff agree are the best available 9mm carry ammo.

TFB Review: Springfield Armory Garrison 9mm 1911

It's hard to come out with something that interests me in the 1911 market these days. The market has been saturated with pistols in almost every price range with a large variety of features. So how does Springfield Armory's Garrison hold up? Springfield has been making 9mm and .45 caliber 1911s for years now, with everything from top-of-the-line railed models like the TRP, Operator, and Emissary lines to more traditional pistols like the Mil Spec. The Garrison sits right in the middle of the pack with much appreciated modern features like the 3 dot Novak sights, skeletonized hammer and the extended beavertail. It does all this while keeping the lines and feel of a mil-spec 1911 versus something like the Emissary. Let's dive into the review.

GFORCE Arms Chronicle: 1911 Remixed, Again

When is a 1911-pattern pistol not a 1911? According to the naysayers, if it isn’t in .45 ACP (or maybe 38 Super?), it doesn’t count. But if you aren’t torn by such negativity, you might want to take a peek at the new GFORCE Arms Chronicle, an all-forged 1911-pattern pistol that’s just hitting the U.S. market now, chambered in 9x19mm.

Crow About It! Galco Corvus Speed Cut Holster for SIG P365 X-Macro
