Federal Ordnance M1 Garand Tanker Garand 30-06 Springfield
GUN TESTS GRADE: B $775 (used) It is difficult to qualify the value and selling price of the Tanker Garand because so few come up for sale. The version listed was purchased at a fair price, we feel, and seemed well put together. The term Tanker Garand is an odd one in some ways because […]
Shooting Garand-Based M1 And M1A Rifles Head to Head
In this day and time, the AR-15 rifle and its many clones are the number-one-selling rifle in the country. For personal defense, recreation and hunting, they are indisputably popular choices. But experienced shooters, veterans, and hunters often prefer the harder-hitting 308 Winchester rifle. The 30-caliber rifle hits hard, ranges far, and offers excellent stopping potential. […]

Anschütz MSR RX22 22LR
GUN TESTS GRADE: C $800-$1000 The Anschütz RX22 is not what we usually think of when we think Anschütz. Not a classic target rifle, the Anschütz RX22 is a 22 LR replica of the FN SCAR.

Walther Arms HK416 D145RS 578.03.01 22 LR
