INTRODUCED IN 1873.
THE REST IS HISTORY.
No Colt revolver has earned more fame than the Single Action Army
®
Revolver (SAA), most notably for its role in winning the West. More
important is its lasting reputation as an accurate, durable and reliable
firearm – perfect for competitive shooters and collectors alike. When
looking for the ultimate revolver, demand quality; demand Colt.

Cover Story:

Budget-Friendly
Shotgun
For decades, shotgun
designers have sought
to increase smooth bore
cartridge capacity, and
the UTS-15 provides an
effective solution
through the use of mul-
tiple feed tubes.
By Leroy Thompson
Bolt-Action
The Ruger American
Rifle has been described
as a top-of-the-line,
bolt-action rifle at a
budget level price, and
the newest version in
.223 Remington doesn’t
disappoint.
By Dave Spaulding
Sweet SIG Sauer
SIG Sauer’s P320 is a
striker-fired, polymer-
framed high-capacity
semi-auto that shoots
straight and runs flaw-
lessly.
By Dr. Martin D. Topper

Big Pistol,
Small Price
If you crossed a Glock with
an M&P pistol, you’d likely
end up with something
close to Diamondback’s
new, full-size 9 mm, which
sells for considerably less
than either of the two.

Pre-Packaged Prep
Surviving the first day after
a major catastrophe re-
quires both the skills and
the tools, and the First 24
package from Taurus
could be your best friend.

Threat Response
Weatherby’s SA-459 TR
for home and personal de-
fense is easy to carry and
handle, rugged, reliable,
and competitively priced.
