The Smart Way to Buy Guns Online
The Girsan Regard MC is a Turkish-made Beretta 92 with an 18 round magazine and a rail. We put 500 rounds through one, mapped EAA’s current Regard line and prices, and found the warranty catch that makes a used Regard a bad deal.
The Stoeger M3000 is an inertia-driven 12 gauge semi-auto that sells for pump-gun money. We put 500 rounds through one and found it flawless with 1-1/8 oz loads and up, and unreliable with light target loads.
The Mossberg 505 Bantam is a youth pump with a 12 inch pull that takes a full-size 500 stock as a kid grows. We put 250 rounds through the .410 with an 11-year-old shooter and compared it with the 510 Mini, 500 Bantam, Maverick 88 Bantam and Stevens 320.
The Auto-Ordnance 1911 is a new GI-spec .45 made in Worcester, Massachusetts. We put 500 rounds through a 1911BKO, compared the maker’s store prices with street prices, and lined it up against the Tisas, Rock Island and Springfield GI guns.
The Colt Single Action Army still sells new for $2,299. Real street prices, how to tell the generations apart, how to load it safely, and the $500 clones.
The Browning 1911-380 is an 85% scale 1911 with a locked breech and a steel slide, and it’s one of the softest shooting .380s made. We put 400 rounds through a Black Label, mapped all 20 current models and compared it with the P238, Kimber Micro and Ruger Security-380.
The Browning 1911-22 is a real 1911 built at 85% scale for .22 LR. We put 500 rounds through an A1, mapped all 20 current models and their prices, and found why Browning’s own spec sheets list the wrong magazine capacity.
The Glock 29 is a full-power 10mm in a subcompact frame. We put 600 rounds through a Gen5, compared it with the G20 V and XD-M Elite, and found Glock’s own site now lists every G29 for law enforcement only.
