Hey Squat Squad. I walk into my favorite FFL here in town, take a look at what they have, and honestly I was very pleasantly surprised. This is the Savage 110 Core Predator. I'll be honest: I did not spend a lot of time at the Savage booths at NRA and SHOT Show, so I completely missed this. That is

What's up, Squat Squad. I walk into my favorite gun store and look at what I find. Not another polymer wonder from last SHOT Show. A Rohrbaugh R9 — the original OG pocket 9. These were the original 9mm pocket guns. Nice fit and finish. Polymer carbon-fiber-weave type grips. Double action only. And
