To start us off, Jeremy Tremp gives us a detailed look at the new TRP series of 1911 pistols. These top-shelf handguns are an incredible addition to the company’s catalog and bound to become the favorite of many shooters.

Next, Dr. Will Dabbs takes us for a ride in the H-34 Choctaw. In addition to flying Marines into combat during the Vietnam War, this Sikorsky helicopter also rescued astronauts and flew presidents on missions of state. For a rotary-wing aircraft supposedly past its prime, it punched well above its weight class on the world stage.
