The gun business is ever changing and hardly predictable, but I thought I would share some of the things that are hot in our shop right now. Anything AR.  If you can get your hands on it, people will stand in line to buy it.  Optics, accessories, mags, ammo, uppers and lowers are all in demand. Glock light rails for early generation Glocks.  Unfortunately they don’t fit the large framed 20 and 21 models.  We get inquires about these every...

GunsAmerica sent out the following email to one of the MCC readers.  Now be warned; they are not trying to play into your fears, but they are simply doing their civic duty by informing gun owners of plans that are “almost definitely” going to happen.  I didn’t know anything could be almost definitely.  That is a new one.  Word to the wise.  You can’t change anything that will or won’t happen, so stop panicking like...

Quite obviously this has been fueld by panic buying as people think about the former Clinton Crime Bill.  So, if you have been waiting to buy, you may be waiting a little longer.  What this signals is that the industry...

If you have been following Ruger’s development of new pistols lately it seems they are having trouble with their research and development.  Earlier this year they recalled their SR9 pistols for the same reason.  When dropped the guns have the ability to go off. Ruger has...
