Sorry about that. Day-long briefing, this’ll be fun… not.

In the meantime we recommend you go to one of these excellent sites:

The Gun Wire for news headlines, Drudge style.

Forgotten Weapons for in-depth looks at oddities, also-rans and the occult history of firearms (don’t miss the related site GunLab, with even more tech, but much less frequently updated).

Sorry for not offering more options, but time is tight.

Or hit the Wednesday Weapons Website of the Week category links (there are two due to administrator headspace and timing) for more sites we like. We’ve added this post to those categories so the links should be Ranger-proof obvious.
