The FBI has decided to switch back to the 9mm Luger/Parabellum cartridge after using the more powerful .40 S&W cartridge for many years.

A Historic Election Night for the Second Amendment

7:00am Monday, November 14, 2016

Did you ever. Once again, NRA’s members and supporters proved to be the most potent...
