Welcome to the Gun Dude's Den!
How about an arsenal of fun?
Even though I live in a teeming hive of scum and villainy, it's not a good idea to dwell on the negativity all the time. As a recreational activity, shooting isn't all about fighting criminals, zombies, foreign invaders, ninjas, or the storm troopers for the new world order. Instead, take a deep breath and focus on building up a collection of fun guns like this Ruger Bearcat .22 revolver. Read more in my article:

A Review of My New .22!
I recently bought a Henry Repeating Arms, Co., Lever-Action .22 Rifle. So far it's been a great gun with attractive styling, accuracy, and a fair price. It's hard to believe that it is made in America! Here's my complete review:

Buying A Gun At Walmart
Walmart recently announced that they would be returning to the basics that made their stores successful. Those basics include guns!

The Innovative Revolvers For the 21st Century
Can you believe the revolver is still with us in 2010? With all the polymer, wonder-nine, compact semi-automatic pistols in the marketplace, you'd think the revolver would fade away. But, in 2010, there are lots of innovative revolvers. Here is a run down of what I think are the three most innovative revolvers in the firearms marketplace:

The tough economy has led to the rise of the .22!
In these tight economic times, shooters are rediscovering the .22! Gun magazines are filled with advertisements for .22 conversion kits and .22-caliber versions of various assault weapons. The .22 long rifle cartridge stops paper targets cold and is economical to shoot! You can shoot a single-shot .22 all day at the range for just a few dollars.
There are plenty of .22-caliber firearms in the marketplace and most are quite affordable. Since the .22 is all about hitting your target at the range, you don't have to go for tacti-cool gear and accessories. You can just get something that is accurate and fun to shoot. I enjoy my Marlin 25N Bolt Action Rifle and my wife's MagTech 7022. Both of these rifles sold for less than $200 and they both provide lots of fun at the range.
