By David Crane david (at) defensereview (dot) com December 5, 2021 The CZ-75 9mm combat/tactical pistol is an Eastern Bloc (formerly-USSR Eastern European countries) classic made in Czechoslovakia for their military forces and law enforcement agencies, and is reportedly a highly reliable design, albeit one that DefenseReview’s (DR) never owned or carried. The fact that the guns are all-steel, and …

Massachussetts has gotten SO hostile to gun owners AND manufacturers that Smith & Wesson (S&W) is essentially being FORCED to move its headquarters and 550 jobs out …

By David Crane david (at) defensereview (dot) com August 31, 2021 Sorry for the hiatus, everyone, but DefenseReview (DR) is back, and we’re rarin’ to go. The first item on our agenda is a very interesting competition/tactical AR-15 rifle/carbine/SBR (Short Barreled Rifle) flat trigger called the Zero Trigger, and it’s manufactured by an equally interesting aerospace and military defense contractor, …

By Jeff Gurwitch July 20, 2021 Back with yet another review of a Tyrant Designs product, this time their Glock Magwell(s). I’ve been running one on both a Gen-3 Glock 17 and a Gen-5 Glock 19 (G19) for about three months now, and am very satisfied with the results so far. Made from machined aluminum, in a variety of colors, …

By David Crane david (at) defensereview (dot) com June 30, 2021 There’s virtually no end to how much you can mod your Glock pistol(s) nowadays. The options are seemingly endless.

This certainly isn’t for a lack of interest in stock kits for for pistols that effectively turn said pistols into pistol-caliber SBR’s (Short Barreled Rifles) or …

By David Crane david (at) defensereview (dot) com May 6, 2021 Speaking (or in this case, writing) of interesting and cool new little concealed carry (CCW) combat/tactical pistols, the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield Plus 9mm/.40 S&W sub-compact pistol looks interesting to us. While we here at DefenseReview (DR) are primarily Glock guys, we DO like other manufacturers’ products, and …

By David Crane david (at) defensereview (dot) com April 27, 2021 We’re a little late on this one, but we’ve been on travel, and better late than never. DefenseReview (DR) just learned that a friend of DR’s, retired Tier 1 US Army Special Forces Unit operator Mike Pannone of CTT-Solutions, will be B&T USA’s new Director of Training in a …

By Jeff Gurwitch April 7, 2021 Tyrant Designs has recently upped their Glock game AGAIN with a couple more offerings for Glock Pistols. Over the past three months, I’ve been trying out their Extended Slide Release (ESR). There are two models: one that fits Gen 2 thru 4, and one for Gen 5 Glocks. Additionally, I was supplied with one …
