The Browning X-Bolt Speed SR pairs a handy 20-inch suppressor-ready barrel with the hard-hitting 7mm PRC, then backs it up with repeatable sub-MOA accuracy at 100 and 300 yards. The Browning X-Bolt Speed SR (Suppressor Ready) takes advantage of the high-performance Hornady 7mm PRC cartridge to make an impressive hunting combination. Mounting a suppressor on a long barrel can make a rifle long and unwieldy. The X-Bolt Speed SR sports a 20-inch fluted barrel to make the rifle handle well with or without a suppressor installed. Browning X-Bolt Speed SR 7mm PRC: The Bottom Line Browning did a fantastic job…
Many Democrats in the Land of Enchantment have tried to pin the blame for the state’s high rate of juvenile violence on lawful gun owners, starting with Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham. It was Grisham who tried to ban lawful concealed carry throughout the city of Albuquerque and Bernalillo County back in 2023, pointing to the shootings of several juveniles as justification for preventing adults from bearing arms in self-defense. Though Lujan Grisham’s carry ban is now defunct, juvenile crime is still an issue. This past week the House Courts, Corrections and Justice Committee held a…
The Nocpix MATE Ultra is the first civilian thermal clip-on I have tested that delivers the image quality needed for serious long-range shooting through a conventional day scope. https://youtu.be/whdQwWjH0WA A True Long-Range Thermal Clip-On Most civilian thermal clip-ons have forced shooters to accept a compromise. They may work well on an AR at modest distances, but image quality often falls apart when magnification increases or targets get small. The MATE Ultra is different. It uses a 1280×1024, 12-micron thermal sensor, a 60mm f/1.0 objective lens, a 60 Hz refresh rate, and a sensitivity rating of 15 mK or less. Nocpix…
BERLIN (AP) — The suspect in the deadly Berlin Pride attack that left one person dead and 29 injured was shot and killed by police during a confrontation on Sunday in a suburb of the city, authorities said. Abdul Ballout, a German citizen with Lebanese roots, was killed following a search that lasted nearly 24 hours after the attack in downtown Berlin. Prosecutors said he had previously sought to join the militant Islamic State group. Ballout was suspected of driving a van into a crowd near Berlin’s Pride festival Saturday night before apparently stabbing others with a machete in what…
The Colt Python 3 inch is already a gorgeous .357 Magnum, but two weaknesses kept it from perfection. Harrison Snake Sights and Hogue Monogrips changed that in a hurry. Colt Python 3 Inch: The Snake Returns Stronger In 2022, Colt fans were ecstatic when Colt brought back the King of the Colt revolvers. The return of the Python marked a new day for Colt and fans hoped it would be everything the old Python was. The original Pythons were true works of art. Craftsmen took oversized parts and, using stones and files, carefully fitted them to the frame. The original…
CAIRO (AP) — The United States paused its attacks on Iran for a second straight day Sunday and Tehran said it had done so too, as efforts continued to bring the countries back to negotiations on an interim ceasefire deal largely undermined by recent exchanges of fire. It was not clear why the U.S. has paused after targeting Iranian coastal areas and infrastructure in a nearly two-week escalation sparked by Iran’s firing at ships trying to transit the Strait of Hormuz. The Pentagon did not immediately respond to questions Sunday. U.S. President Donald Trump is “giving talks some space. He’s…

The White House’s border wall expansion is once again facing scrutiny over its environmental impact. Construction on an additional wall — located 150-200 feet inland of Arizona’s existing wall — had already drawn ire for its impacts on wildlife and Native American tribes. By building this secondary wall in a protected area of the Sonoran Desert, construction has now destroyed a sacred site to indigenous tribes. Last week, a DHS contractor working on the wall damaged a 1,000-year-old piece of indigenous art. U.S. Customs and Border Protection confirmed the damage to GearJunkie on Monday. Conservationists, Native American tribes, and local Congressional…
A week ago, I was talking about the latest attempt to assassinate President Donald Trump. This time, the gunman was clear that he wanted to kill as many members of the administration as he could, excluding Kash Patel for some strange reason. He was in the place to commit exactly that attack, and he would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren’t for those meddling Secret Service agents. But, as per usual, the discussion from Democrats has hinged exclusively on gun control. Not their own rhetoric or anything else, just gun control.Yet the…

A man was fatally shot in self-defense after trying to carjack a family’s vehicle in the Dallas suburb of Garland, Texas over the weekend. Authorities are still trying to piece together all of the events that led up to the shooting, which apparently started with a hit-and-run accident. The suspect was involved in an accident on Sunday afternoon that left two other vehicles damaged. He apparently tried to flee the scene, but either because of damage to his own vehicle or in an effort to elude police, he pulled in to a nearby gas station…

Imagine this: you’re standing in a dealership with one of two decisions to make. On the one hand sits a brand-new BMW 3 Series, but you’ve heard it stands to lose 20% of its value the second its tires touch public roads. On the other hand, there’s a second-hand Jaguar F-Pace, but it could potentially be harboring mechanical gremlins that could drain your bank account by next week! This article is a guide to explaining what a certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicle is. Prospective buyers are encouraged to engage in conversation with factory-backed dealerships; CarBuzz advises buyers to do their due…

This article originally appeared on The Inertia. Sea lions and seals may come off as cuddly sea dogs, but don’t let appearances fool you. When they’re angry, they’re a force to be reckoned with. And they do get angry. Well-known New Zealand surf photographer Rambo Estrada found that out firsthand recently. While shooting a handful of local rippers, the Mt. Maunganui–based Estrada witnessed a surfer being accosted by one very pissed-off pinniped. Damon “Crackers” Cracknell, who Estrada describes as a Southland local core lord, was chased from the water by the lion. He even used his board to fend it…
In Rhode Island, SB 2710 seeks to ban ownership of so-called assault weapons throughout the state. These are the same guns that were grandfathered in last year when the same legislature voted to ban the sale and import of such firearms. At the time, it was one of those, “We’re not coming after your guns, just stopping any more people from owning them. You’re safe,” kind of things, but it’s now clear as crystal that anti-gunners were never going to let that stand. And, sure enough, they’re trying to ban them all.But as NRA executive…
A Wisconsin turkey hunt turned into something straight out of a predator documentary, and it’s all on camera. A 19-year-old hunter was stalked and then attacked by a bobcat while sitting in the woods near Wisconsin Rapids, according to reporting from KARE 11. The hunter, Carson Bender, was set up and listening for birds when something else caught his attention. “It sounded like something was patting leaves behind me,” he said. Instead of spinning around, he quietly hit record on his phone. Good call. Because what showed up wasn’t a turkey. It was a bobcat, locked in and watching him.…
