HSM Ammunition Adds To Their Low-Recoil Line

This video explores the Outlier chassis system, which integrates a suppressor directly into its barrel design, effectively turning the entire barrel shroud into a baffle system. While the ATF does not classify this as a suppressor, the design significantly reduces sound signature, especially when compared to a standalone small suppressor. The reviewer notes its effectiveness on a 6.5 Creedmoor caliber rifle, though advises against continuous firing due to potential heat buildup.

This video explores an innovative firearm design where the barrel shroud functions as an integral suppressor. The Outlier system effectively turns the entire barrel sleeve into a baffle, significantly enhancing sound suppression. Despite its compact size, the system is surprisingly effective for 6.5 Creedmoor, though the presenter notes it's not hearing-safe for extended use with supersonic ammunition. Notably, the ATF does not classify this design as a suppressor, a point of contention for the presenter.

This video reviews the Recoil X muzzle brake, designed to thread onto suppressors to enhance recoil reduction and create a flatter shooting platform, particularly beneficial for PRS shooters. The presenter highlights its effectiveness on a Boss Top Shot suppressor, noting its ability to mitigate recoil on lighter rifles and maintain sight picture for follow-up shots. The Recoil X is presented as an option for shooters seeking to avoid the concussive blast of traditional muzzle brakes while still achieving significant recoil management.

This review covers the CMMG Zeroed 30 suppressor, highlighting its budget-friendly price point and durable stainless steel construction. The presenter compares it to the SilencerCo Hybrid, noting the Zeroed's comparable quietness at half the cost and length. It's tested on 300 Blackout, 5.56 NATO, and 6.5 Creedmoor, with observations on sound reduction and point of impact shift.

This video reviews the Fullframe Outdoors stock enhancement bundle for Tikka rifles, focusing on a vertical grip bag rider and an adjustable cheek piece. The presenter details the installation process, including the need to drill a hole for the cheek riser, and discusses the impact on shooting ergonomics and recoil management, particularly with a 7 PRC caliber rifle. While the grip is deemed useful, concerns are raised about the loss of the sling stud and the permanent nature of the cheek riser attachment.

This video, presented by an experienced instructor, identifies the five worst calibers for budget ammunition stockpiling in 2026: 300 Blackout, 10mm Auto, .45 ACP, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .308 Win/7.62 NATO. It highlights their high cost per round due to limited mass production or material expenses. The instructor recommends more affordable and widely available alternatives like 9mm, .40 S&W, 5.56mm/.223, and 7.62x39mm for budget-conscious individuals.

This guide, informed by Roy Huntington, Editor of American Handgunner Magazine, details the critical differences between buckshot and birdshot for home defense. It covers their physical characteristics, penetration capabilities through walls, and effectiveness at close range. The advice emphasizes choosing a load based on concerns about over-penetration while stressing the universal importance of training, target identification, and using a light for any home defense scenario.

This guide details the field stripping process for a 1911 pistol, presented by Roy Huntington, Publisher of American Handgunner. It covers essential safety checks, step-by-step disassembly, and reassembly, emphasizing techniques to prevent damage. An alternative 'cheat' method for faster disassembly is also demonstrated, along with advice on using specialized tools for tight components.

This video showcases an exceptionally rare find: a first-generation 1873 Colt Single Action Peacemaker, discovered via metal detecting in Arizona. The expert speaker details its museum-quality condition, dating it to 1875, and analyzes the authentic patina and wear, including specific gutta-percha grip details and muzzle wear from holster friction. The firearm's discovery context among homestead ruins adds to its historical narrative.

This guide, presented by Roy Huntington, Editor of American Handgunner Magazine, outlines an efficient '5-minute clean' for modern semi-automatic pistols like the Glock 26/27. It emphasizes that over-cleaning is unnecessary and can cause premature wear. The process focuses on targeted cleaning of critical areas like the barrel and slide rails, with minimal lubrication applied only to high-friction points. Proper function checks after reassembly are also highlighted.
