Gunmart Magazine Jan-25 Retour à l'édition précédente

Well, the latest issue of Gun Mart has landed! As usual, inside you'll discover reviews catering to airgunners, rifle shooters, and shotgunners. Hopefully, that means there is something for everyone!

In the airgun section, we start strong with a test of the Skout Epoch, a premium airgun built to an exceptional standard. Ed Jackson has put the Hawke Airmax 30 FFP SF 6-24x50 rifle scope through its paces, while Mark Camoccio shares his thoughts on the Gamo Roadster 10X IGT Gen2. Mark also reviews the Precihole Sports Club Pro Junior, a lightweight option for beginners, and the Crosman Vigilante, a CO2-powered air pistol that won’t break the bank.

The firearms section features Chris Parkin’s take on Howa’s Superlite bolt-action rifle, a compact and lightweight option. Jules Whicker evaluates the Pulsar Telos LRF XQ35 thermal spotter, an entry-level model with upgradeable potential. Chris also revisits the FX DRS rifle, this time in its FAC-rated form, while Mark Underwood explores crimping rifle ammunition in his ‘Reloading Basics’ feature.

Over in Country & Shotgun, Bruce Potts examines the Charles Daly 301 pump-action shotgun, a wallet-friendly option, while Rob Speed takes aim with the Caesar Guerini Invictus III Ascent—a shotgun that really stands out.

For history buffs, the Antiques & Militaria section is a must-read. John Norris explores WWI Memorial Plaques and the iconic 18-Pounder field gun, while Derek Landers examines the ingenuity of 19th-century American gunmakers navigating Smith & Wesson’s patent restrictions.
