Recently I was contacted by Lenwood Leather to take a look at their Kydex® holster so I went to their website to see what they offered.

Ruger LCP Custom Review
www.gunsumerreports.com
When Ruger released the LCP back in 2008, they ignited a whole new interest in the lightweight compact pistol market and secured a piece of this market that others are fighting to gain.

Back in April 2013, I performed a review on White Sound Defense's first muzzle device called the FOSSA-556™ which was a 5.56mm / .223 caliber device. That device was a combination flash suppressor, muzzle rise compensator and had some muzzle break ability.

In 2007, Ruger introduced their original Ruger 22 Charger.
