Browning BPS Review

Another tough contender in our pump action comparison is the Browning BPS. The BPS is essentially a direct knockoff of the Remington 870 Wingmaster; however, Browning made a few stylistic and feature changes like: a thumb-operated grip safety on top of the tang, choices of matte black, camo or blued finishes, bottom ejection and loading of shells and some grip textures other than checkering.

We liked shooting this gun and would have loved to hunt with it alongside a Wingmaster for a great shot-by-shot comparison, but the stars didn’t line up for us in that account. Our range tests proved this gun to be very comfortable to shoot. We also found the Browning BPS to be just as reliable and accurate as the Remington Wingmaster by comparison, the only items we found lacking was the added weight of this shotgun and a slightly less durable feel in the synthetic stocks as opposed to the available walnut stocks. The BPS is available in 12 gauge, 20 gauge and .410 models.

The bottom ejection is a nice feature and the fact that the safety is thumb operated makes this an ambidextrous gun that is intuitive and really keeps the customer in mind. The “back bored technology” is also interesting; the bore diameter has been increased and is stated to give overall better shot patterns regardless of the choke tubes you use.

BPS magazine capacity varies with different shell lengths. 2 3/4” shells allow four in the magazine and one in the chamber. 3” and 3.5” shells both allow three in the magazine and one in the chamber. Full, modified and improved cylinder choke tubes all come standard.

How does it shoot? Well, a whole heckuva lot like the Remington 870, which is to be expected considering it was modeled after it. An exceptionally well build pump-action shotgun that will get the job done, but unfortunately also includes a price tag that usually comes along with the Browning name as well.

Benelli Nova Review

Always wanted a Benelli but thought you could never afford one? Too many Benelli’s to choose from? Got a thing for Italians?

While the selection of Benelli models and configurations does seem endless, the options for the Italian shotgun that gets all the hoopla comes in an affordable, simpler package – the Benelli Nova.

At a sticker price of around $550-$570, you really can’t go wrong with this high-quality Benelli Nova shotgun. Available in 12 or 20 gauge and also a “youth” 20 gauge with a shorter length of pull. The real differences are in the barrel length and overall weight of the gun. The fact that you can shoot any size shell through the 12 gauge models with no need to change barrels is really impressive. Yes, you read that right: you can shoot anything from target loads up to 3.5” magnum shells through this baby with nothing to do other than pull the trigger.

A magazine capacity of 4+1 rounds is pretty standard (unless you hunt in New Jersey where you are limited to three) and all shells are ejected out through the bottom of the shotgun. The Benelli Nova comes standard with a red bar front sight and a bead mid sight. Available accessories are limited, but you can get IC, M and F chokes for the Nova.

One of the very few drawbacks of the Benelli is the fact that it is only available with a polymer stock (which is also be weather resistant, so it could be considered a plus as well) and features grooves instead of checkering in the grip and forend. We trust Benelli to get it right, but a wet gun is still a wet gun and we’re a little on the fence about it. The current available finishes are Realtree APG, Realtree Max-4 and black synthetic.

Another great feature of the Nova is the shell stop button on the bottom of the gun. This button allows a chambered shell to be removed without having to release any rounds from the magazine, which is a very useful and innovative feature.

Overall, Benelli continues to impress, and at this price point, how can you not want one?

Remington 870 Wingmaster Review

Rarely does a firearm hold it’s own against the ongoing competition year after year. Something even more rare is a shotgun holding it’s own generation after generation, in it’s original form, unaltered despite ever-changing trends and “coolness factors”. Say hello to the Remington 870 Wingmaster.

The Remington 870 Wingmaster is just as smooth as ever and just as reliable as can be expected. The Wingmaster is truly a first class device in pure shotgunning form whether hunting, sporting, defending or just having fun.

If you are not familiar with the famous 870 Wingmaster, you are looking at a shotgun of pure precision and strength. This gun is available in 12 gauge (both 2 3/4 and 3 inch shells), 20 gauge, 28 gauge and .410 bore. The Wingmaster’s twin action bars keep the chambering and ejection at optimum performance and the weight and balance allows an easily discovered natural point of aim.

Even when it’s dirty, the 870 outperforms everything else on the market today. The receiver is cut from a solid billet of steel and frankly, seems to shoot under any conditions you put it through. Our Wingmaster got dropped in the mud during a pouring rain deer hunt, but after a quick flush of the barrel with some water and a quick wipe with a dirty rag into the receiver, the gun shot like it was new off the production floor and cycled the next shell smoothly and cleanly. It’s pretty incredible, can you tell that we were impressed?

The stock and forend are custom quality American walnut, clean finished and classically checkered. The receiver and barrel feature highly polished bluing and the barrel comes standard with a beaded front and ventilated ribbing.

Think you’ll need accessories? You don’t have enough years left in your life to use all the available accessories for the 870. From every choke tube imaginable, barrel lengths and configurations, slug barrels, trab barrels, skeet, upland game, deer hunting – you name it, they’ve got it. If you’re looking at options for home defense or tactical use, Remington’s got them as well. From pistol grips to entire tactical retrofits, they’ve got plenty of accessories to choose from.

There’s a reason that the sixty year old Remington 870 Wingmaster is the best selling shotgun of all time – ten million units and counting. The long and short of this is simple: if you’re looking for the best pump-action shotgun, this is the one to get.

Tanfoglio Witness Review

TanfoglioThe Tanfoglio Witness is an inexpensive Italian handgun that is a clone of the CZ 75. It is imported into the United States by European American Armory (EAA) Corporation. It is often referred to as the “EAA Witness” for that reason.

When introduced in the mid-1970s, the CZ 75 was made in Czechoslovakia, which was a country under communist rule. Czeska Zbrojovka, the maker of the CZ 75, did not secure a patent for the design. Consequently, many companies began to make their own version of the CZ 75. Some were very good; some were not.

The Witness is one of the most available CZ clones available in the United States. EAA handles all of the warranty service work for Tanfoglio, so you will not find unusual delays in getting a gun fixed.

Ergonomics and Recoil
Shooters will find the ergonomics of the Witness are very good, and many shooters people are pleased with the grip size and angle. The way the gun is designed, your hand is able to grip very high on the gun, which helps minimize muzzle flip and recoil you will feel. Recoil is average for this size pistol. That is to say 9mm ammo is light recoiling, while larger calibers tend to recoil more. In addition to 9mm, the Witness is available in .38 Super, .40 S&W, 10mm and .45 ACP.

Reloading and Disassembly
You will find disassembly of the Witness is relatively easy. The slide is retracted slightly and the slide stop is pulled out of the frame. The slide assembly can then be eased forward and off of the frame.

Reloading is standard fare, press a button-type magazine release and the magazine drops free. A loaded mag can then be inserted into the magazine well.

Reliability and Durability
Unfortunately, the Witness is not rated for +P ammunition, which some may see as a suggestion of a weak design. For compact handguns where size constraints might prevent a pistol from safely shooting SAAMI-specification +P ammo, there is no reason why a full size handgun could not be built to handle these slightly higher chamber pressures. In addition to limiting ammunition selection for your self-defense, the inability to handle higher pressure loads also may suggest the gun could wear out more quickly than other brands.

Final Verdict
The Tanfoglio Witness is a solid gun that offers a lot of value to a customer needing a reliable gun at a reasonable price point. The Witness can be purchased with a .22 LR conversion kit, which further extends the value of the handgun.

SIG Sauer P226 Review

P226The Chosen SIG Sauer P226 is proven in combat as a serious pistol and therefore has been selected by the US Navy SEALs. It is extremely durable, very reliable and highly accurate. For these reasons, this firearm tops the list for best full-size, metal-frame pistol.

You will find that the P226 is available in a variety of configurations and calibers. At the time of this writing, you can get the pistol in 9mm, .40 S&W and .357 SIG. A caliber conversion kit is also available from SIG to convert the pistol to fire the inexpensive .22 LR.

Ergonomics and Recoil
Shooters will find that the recoil is light in 9mm and very manageable in both .40 S&W and the .357 SIG. This is due to the weight of the pistol and the excellent ergonomics of the gun.

Old SIG P226 pistols fit large hands very well, while being somewhat difficult for small-handed individuals. However, SIG introduced the E2 update, which greatly improved the handling characteristics of these pistols. The E2 update gives small- and medium-sized shooters better finger placement on the trigger and the overall grip. Shooters with larger hands will experience greatly improved handling characteristics of this gun.

Trigger and Accuracy
The standard trigger configuration is a double-action/single-action (DA/SA) configuration, meaning your first trigger pull is long, while your subsequent shots are light with short pulls. You can also find other trigger options, including single-action only and a double-action-only (DAO). Also available is the DAK (double-action Kellerman) system, which is a light DAO that is similar to a very smooth revolver trigger.  The DAK is proprietary to SIG Sauer.

Reloading and Disassembly
You will find that reloading the P226 is easy, with a standard magazine release button located on the left side of the pistol’s frame. You can easily reach the button by either thumb, but it is not exposed, which prevents accidental activation.

You can easily field strip the P226 by locking the slide to the rear of the gun and rotating the take down lever 90 degrees. The slide assembly then slides easily off of the full-length rails.

Reliability and Durability
Legendary reliability is associated with the P226. Combat troops carry this in all possible conditions, from the arctic to the desert, from the skies to deep underwater.  The SIG P226 just keeps working, which is a testament to its durability.

In an age of polymer pistols, there are many state police and local law enforcement agencies carrying this pistol into violent encounters every day. Even after years of service while carried exposed to the elements, these guns still perform well when called upon.

Final Verdict
While no gun can be the perfect firearm for all people in all circumstances, the SIG Sauer P226 is closer to perfection than its rivals. It has the rugged reliability that troops in combat rely on. It offers ergonomics to fit most people and the accuracy that makes a competition shooter happy. It is the clear winner when matched up against any other metal frame, full-sized handgun on the market today.

Browning Hi Power Review

Browning Hi PowerUnder development at the time of his death, many people claim that the Hi Power was John Moses Browning’s ultimate handgun design. While Browning’s name is most often associated with the 1911 pistol, the Hi Power was an evolution beyond that gun.

Browning died in 1926, but Belgian manufacturer Fabrique Nationale (FN) continued the development of the gun. In 1935, the Hi Power went into production and is still being made today. The guns are available in the United States, from the Browning Company, but they are imported from FN.

The Hi Power is believed by many to be unmatched in design and quality. By some counts, the Hi Power has been in the military service of more than 50 countries. It has seen action around the world and has been used in the past by elite military and law enforcement units such as the FBI Hostage Rescue Team and Israeli Yamam.

Ergonomics and Recoil
You will find the ergonomics of the Hi Power are some of the best of any full-size, metal-framed pistol. Even though the gun uses a double stack magazine, the grip is surprisingly thin. This allows shooters of all hand sizes to obtain a good grip on the device. The gun is also exceptionally well balanced.

The traditional caliber for the Hi Power is 9mm. With this cartridge, recoil is easy and only the most recoil-sensitive shooter will be bothered by it. Modern Hi Power pistols are also chambered in .40 Smith & Wesson. You will find these guns have a bit more recoil but are still very pleasant to shoot.

Trigger and Accuracy
The Browning Hi Power has a single action trigger that is light and crisp. The trigger pull helps to enhance accuracy, which is excellent in this pistol. The Hi Power has long been praised for precise shooting. Current models are worthy of the same respect.

Reloading and Disassembly
Shooters will soon realize that reloading the Hi Power is typical:  press the magazine release button and the magazine will drop free.

Disassembly is not difficult, but it is more complicated than some other pistol designs. The shooter locks the slide to the rear using the safety, not the slide stop. Then the user pushes the slide stop up while pressing the pin from the right side of the pistol. Once loose, the operator can pull the slide stop free and pull the slide assembly off of the pistol.

The recoil spring is not captive, so you have to be careful when reassembling in order to get the spring and guide rod back in the correct alignment.

Reliability and Durability
The durability of the Hi Power is exceptional. Many of the original guns are still being shot today without any loss in accuracy or reliability.

Final Verdict
It really seems Browning got this pistol design right. It is a great balance of power, accuracy and reliability. Add in the pistol’s great lines, and it is a winner by anyone’s definition.

SIG Sauer P220 Review

The SIG Sauer P220 was introduced in 1976, as a full sized handgun that launched the company to the forefront of modern pistol design. This pistol is extremely accurate and easy to operate. This design influenced many future pistols including the top metal-framed pistol: the P226.

Today, you can find the P220 is available in .45 ACP. A European version of the P220 is available in 9mm as a competition pistol. In the past, the P220 was also available in .38 Super. The vast majority of the pistols have been made in .45 caliber.

Ergonomics and Recoil
Most shooters will find that the P220 has very good ergonomics, fitting most hand sizes without a problem. The good grip works with the pistol’s size and SIG engineered it to create very mild recoil. Some claim the .45 ACP is a hard-recoiling cartridge, but most shooters rarely notice the recoil when shooting this pistol.

Trigger and Accuracy
You will find the accuracy of the P220 is exceptional. Sub-2-inch groups at 25 yards are readily made without the use of a rest. Like other traditional SIG Sauer pistols, the trigger options are double-action/single-action, single-action, double-action-only and DAK (double-action, Kellerman.)

 

Reloading and Disassembly
You will find that all modern P220 pistols use a push-button magazine release on the left side of the pistol. Once you push the button, the magazines all drop free. Older P220 pistols made in the 1970’s and 1980’s were made with either a button magazine release or a heel clip release. The heel clip release pistols were primarily found on European guns and not many were imported into the United States.

Like other traditional SIG handguns, you will find that taking the gun down is a straightforward process. The shooter should clear the weapon, lock the slide to the back and rotate the slide release lever down, perpendicular to the slide. Once done, the shooter merely eases the slide forward and off of the rails.

Reliability and Durability
SIG handguns enjoy a reputation of being ultra-reliable. Shooters find that this gun is no different, in fact, it helped build the legend. The P220 has seen action in combat all over the world, and it has proved itself as a superior performer. The guns are very durable and easily withstand anything thrown at them.

Final Verdict
The SIG Sauer P220 is a rock solid handgun. A shooter looking for a full size handgun with a metal frame that is chambered in .45 ACP would do well to consider this pistol. It will not fail when called upon.

Smith & Wesson 642 Review

Smith Wesson 642 TriggerThe S&W 642 is a great gun, right out of the box. In this article I will discuss the specifications and why I choose this gun for my concealed carry weapon.

Out of the box, my gunsmith measured the trigger pull at 11 pounds, which is challenging, but a heavier trigger is considered preferable on a carry gun. The trigger is also a little gritty, which was easily remedied by partially disassembling it and polishing some of the moving parts.

I have to bring my finger in past the first knuckle to get enough leverage to pull the trigger, which pinches my fingertip between the back of the trigger and the trigger guard. I suspect this will improve with dry fire practice. However, I did not purchase this firearm to be a pleasure-shooter, I purchased it to save my life should the need arise, so this is not a major concern. The trigger pull may be challenging but it is still easier than racking the slide of most light carry pistols that I have handled.

The rear sight is fixed and the front sight is integral so visibility is not its strong suit. The front sight could be painted to increase visibility, my personal favorite is pink nail polish, but so many self-defense situations are so close and are over so quickly that aiming is often not an option. My gunsmith suggested getting laser grip sights, which would make quick work of aiming.

At about 10 yards the 642 shoots low but at about 5 yards it shoots true. This is no surprise considering the barrel is only 1.875” and was designed for self-defense, which usually happens within 3-5 yards.

I am not very strong so I do not want my carry gun to be a punishment to shoot. Because the 642 is so lightweight and is chambered in a relatively large round, there is conceivably a lot of recoil for the shooter to absorb. The entire first cylinder that I fired was to test recoil. I pointed the 642 down range in the vicinity of the target, wrenched my face into an anticipatory grimace, and pulled the trigger. The 642 passed the test with flying colors. The recoil is substantial but manageable. The recoil pushes the gun back into your hand and twists a little. The muzzle did not try to flip way up and it did not feel like it was going to fly out of my hand.

The Smith & Wesson 642 because it is light in my holster, does not take my hand off when I shoot it, is affordably priced, is easily concealed, and is chambered in a decently large round which makes me feel safer. The 11 pound trigger pull and low profile sights are challenging and the pinch that the trigger gives my fingertip is quite annoying. Essentially the pros far outweigh the cons with this gun; it beautifully and efficiently does what it was designed to do. I recommend the Smith & Wesson 642 to anyone who enjoys shooting.

Fixed Action Sight Adjustment

Gunsmithing Files | TopGunReviewHome gunsmithing on your fixed action revolver will involve several needed pieces of equipment and tools.

  1. A solid vice with soft jaws is a must for holding the gun.
  2. A caliper, file, tape, and patience is required. I like using Swiss cut files with “safe” or smooth edges, as seen in this photo.


Low Shooting Guns:
If your gun shoots low, bullets are below your point of aim, you need to file down the front sight.

  1. First measure the front sight height, you can measure the overall height of the sight and barrel – you only need a reference height.
  2. Write this number down.
  3. File off a little at a time. It’s really hard to make it taller! I would suggest taking 0.01-inch at a time and see how much it changes your impact.

Tip: I usually place masking tape around the sight and barrel to prevent unwanted scratches, leaving a small part of the sight exposed that will need to be filed.

High Shooting Guns: If you gun is shooting high, you need have a taller front sight installed. You can find aftermarket sights that fit right over your factory sight. You can also have a gunsmith replace it with a new, taller sight.

Left/Right Adjustments. There is a way to home gunsmith your gun to adjust the sights left or right. It involves filing one side of the rear sight notch. Just like filing the front sight, you need to move in small increments.

  1. Tape off all the metal near the rear sight notch to prevent scratches. You must use the safe file, smooth side down to prevent you from removing metal from the bottom of the sight.
  2. File straight and smooth removing metal on one side only.
  3. Remove a small amount and shoot the gun to see what effect you had on it. Repeat this process until you reach the desired results.

Rear Sight Notch: A wider rear sight is usually beneficial when shooting competition firearms. If your impact is left of your aim point, you need open the left side of your rear sight. If the impact is to the right, you need to file off the right side of your rear sight.

Left/Right Shooting Guns: If your gun is shooting either left or right, the preferred method is to turn the barrel in the direction needed. No, the sight will not look vertical, but the top of the sight is the reference you use. This method may require more tools, and is generally not recommended unless you have the proper tools. This method is beyond my comfort level, and I have a gunsmith perform this if I feel it is necessary.

Good luck, and go slow.

Sturm Ruger and Company

Ruger copyFounded by William B. Ruger and Alexander McCormick Sturm in 1949 with a minimal investment of $50,000.00, the Sturm, Ruger and Company (NYSE: RSR), as it is now known, is one of the leading manufacturers of quality firearms in the United States today. You can hardly glance at the history and timeline of this business and not have an appreciation of what an American company can accomplish. This is especially true for the controversial commercial shooting and sportsmen market.

Being a worldwide recognized name Ruger offers over 400 variations of firearms and accessories in more than 30 current product lines. For over 60 years, the Ruger motto of “Arms Makers for Responsible Citizens” has proven to be just this in a case of success and American entrepreneurship.

When you enter a gun shop or other firearms/sportsman supply dealer, you will literally find a Ruger firearm in every section on display. This is one more addition to the long list of Ruger accomplishments.

In pistols, you will find the classic arms of the old west in the single six and the like; you will also find the more modern and vaguely Luger-ish Mark III series. Moreover, you will see the metal and polymer modern styles that are so popular today for target, plinking and self-defense.

Glancing over at the rifle counter you will see the head-nodding classic, in the Ruger 10/22. You will also find its multitude of aftermarket accessories for variation and customization. Looking a bit further, you will see the Mini-14 and Mini-30. Both of these firearms have taught us that a short-barreled rifle is more than just a ranch-hand gun. On down the line you spy the award-winning Gunsite Scout Rifle, which continues to promote self-head-slapping in appreciation of how it shoots.

Ruger SR-556 RifleAs you continue further down the rifle racks, you begin to see the more modern sporting rifles. The SR-556 is a rifle system that more than competes with the multitude of competitive “black rifles” out there on the market today.

Ruger also offers duplicating classic pistols such as the Colt Single action in .22 rimfire as the “Single Six.” It eventually moved on to making its own pistol influenced by the design of the German Luger in the “Ruger Standard” line.

Stepping up to the handgun counter, the number of Ruger pistols may seem daunting. That is until you examine each one practically. You also need to understand that each series has an intended purpose and few are designed to “overlap” the others.

You will find plinking and target shooting to handgun hunting and everything in between, in the Ruger line. Both single and double action units, each complete with an assurance of quality that can be matched by a few industry leaders.

Few manufacturers today can boast the diversity of their product lines for just about every type of shooting that may exist on the planet. Military and law enforcement, competition shooting, concealed carry, home defense, hunting, plinking or firearms for instructional purposes; a Ruger firearm is available in some variation that can fit any need.

Ruger pistol in holsterAs an owner of Ruger firearms myself, (.22 Mark III handgun competition model and a Ruger All American Rifle in .30-06,) I can attest to the quality of these guns. The only time I have ever had to contact Ruger for any reason regarding a post-sale, was the first time I took the Mark III apart. Getting it apart was not the issue. That came when I could not get it back together while referring to the video on its website. You should know that it has since changed the video, and now the instructions are much more clear and understandable. I can now disassemble and reassemble the gun literally with my eyes closed. Customer service was thorough, attentive and pleasant to deal with.

Another alluring feature of firearms by Ruger is the medium price point. While any builder of fine shooting equipment will have its top-tier models and designs, Ruger has managed to keep the great majority of its models at the median price point. This allows the company to still provide an excellent product, yet keep them affordable for the everyman and, more importantly, every woman.

If you think I am biased because I am an owner of more than one Ruger firearm, check out this short list of some of the awards taken home by Ruger:

  • Manufacturer of the Year: 1992, 1993
  • Handgun of the Year for:

A firearms manufacturer has to provide more than just quality shooting experiences. It has to produce consistency and reliability that is tangible. The only proof to this testament is when someone asks you what it is that you shoot, and your answer is along the lines of “I own Colts, Sigs, Remington’s and Winchesters, but I’m shooting my Ruger.” This leaves little doubt to what you are saying. It also states the kind of American shooter that you are. Which is a shooter who expects affordable reliability in a long-lasting platform that will continue as it has to this day and well into the future.

I will pass my Ruger firearms down to my grandchildren. History and success with dangerous products has proven that it will be so.
