The CZ 455 is an eminently flexible rimfire, giving shooters endless configuration options. On top of that, the bolt-action rifle offers what every marksman wants — dead-on accuracy.

While most of the Warsaw Pact countries walked in lockstep with Soviet Union weapons designs, Czechoslovakia went its own way. One of the results was CZ's VZ 58 Rifle. This gem is nearly as rugged as the AK and on many design points superior to the better known battle rifle from behind the Iron Curtain.

The CZ 75 is a masterpiece in firearms design. It is one of the original wonder-nines, and was the flagship of all further pistol design by the company.

The G34 was introduced in 1998, as a long-slide variant to the G17, and a replacement for the G17L. It was designed specifically to fit in the IPSC box that made the G17L obsolete.

The G26 and G27 were introduced at the same time in July, 1995. They were the first of the subcompact Glocks, often affectionately called “Baby Glocks.”

A look at the other, more compact Glock 9mms and how they compare to the full-sized G17.

Don’t believe the gloom and doom about the slowing AR market. Now has never been a better time to be shopping for your first … or 12th modern sporting rifle.
