Curious if you can "tune" a suppressor? Here's your opportunity to listen to our resident experts discuss the topic. And finally, we close out this week show talking about Beretta's 100 years in the semiauto pistol category.
"Walther, a legendary name in both rimfire and centerfire semiauto pistols, is hard at work again as we feature some new standard pistol offerings and threaded barrel guns that are ready for suppressors right out of the box. SIG has always been a major player in the 1911 category, and its family of 1911s is growing by leaps and bounds. We profile some of their favorites. European countries are way ahead of the good, old USA when it comes to use of suppressors as an acceptable accessory for protecting your hearing--whether you're hunting game or firing a few rounds at the range. It finally appears U.S. manufacturers and shooters are catching up to the idea that suppressors make sense.

Hornady's .44 Magnum and .50 AE factory loads functioned flawlessly, and our shooters walked away from this range session impressed. We close out the show with a Triple Threat training session and how to get started with airguns.
Springfield's XD series of semiauto pistols has received a lot of attention in recent years, but one of Springfield's bread and butter firearms over the years has been its M1A rifles. To be blunt, they simply can't make them fast enough, as riflemen still clamor for this classic semiauto rifle. Craig Boddington and James Tarr review the M1A Scout Squad, one of several new models for 2015, and it doesn't disappoint as it stacks up very favorably with other M1As.
As AR rifles have risen in popularity in recent years, drop-in trigger systems have become more popular than ever--and you don't need to be a gunsmith! Ruger for the first time is offering drop-in triggers for two popular rifles in its lineup--the 10/22 semiauto .22 rimfire and its version of the centerfire AR platform--the SR556. In a matter of minutes you can drop-in either trigger systems, and you'll find the simplicity of the design impressive. No need to spend hours at the bench or studying gunsmithing books--and you get an improved trigger and at a cost that won't bust your budget.
