Canik METE MC9 Prime

Hands-on Canik METE MC9 Prime review — America's first Canik, built in West Palm Beach, FL. Comped 3.64" barrel, Night Fision sights, 17+1 capacity, and a trigger that beats everything in its class. Here's what 500+ rounds taught us.

Taser StrikeLight 2

The StrikeLight 2 is the best contact stun gun on the market — a 700-lumen rechargeable flashlight with a 20kV/10 μC stun built in. But a stun gun is not a TASER. Here's what that means for your self-defense plan.

Taser Bolt 2

The Bolt 2 packs the same TASER tech as the Pulse 2 into a discreet, non-weapon-looking package. Same 15-foot range, same NMI — different shape for different carry needs.

Taser Pulse 2

The Pulse 2 takes me back many moons ago to my time in law enforcement. I’m very familiar with Axon (also known as TASER) and their family of products.
