In the 1980s, the Austrian gun maker Gaston Glock took the world by storm with the introduction of a polymer-framed handgun with a striker-fired action and a 17-round capacity. On this week’s episode of Two Guys One Guy, the crew discusses Glock and the legacy of the polymer striker-fired handgun.

Alex sits down with Ian from Forgotten Weapons to talk about some of the odd connections that different firearms share. They talk about some really cool stories and some oddballs in the gun world. Stick around all the way to the end to hear the blind ranking of firearms that Ian picks.

The .40 S&W enjoyed over a decade of dominance, with its adoption in several federal law enforcement agencies, as well as police forces around the United States. Yet, for all its dominance, the past few years have seen the .40 S&W fall out of favor, leading to a huge influx of law enforcement trade-ins on the secondhand market.

In this weeks episode we dive into that age old question that gun owners have been asked by their non gun-owning spouses for hundreds of years. How many guns is too many? Is there a limit to the amount of guns one should own. We think that number is based solely on your imagination. Dive in this week to find out whether the guys find an answer to the age-old question of how many guns is too many.

On this week’s episode of 2 Guys 1 Gun, we will discuss the concept of polymer AR-15s.The idea of the plastic space gun has always met some reasonable resistance in the gun community. When considering that a firearm is basically a device that contains a minor explosion right next to your face, it is reasonable to question the materials that make up the construction.However, with modern materials and manufacturing processes, is it still acceptable to say that polymer constructed parts are bad? We all seem to be okay with polymer when it comes to basically every handgun on the market, but the second polymer ARs are discussed, there is worry of impending death.What if we told you that Eugene Stoner actually wanted more of the AR-15 to be made of plastic? That’s right, all the way back in the 1960s, he wanted light polymer parts to make up most of the construction. The only thing that held him back was that the technology of polymer was not developed enough.

In this episode, we're going to ruffle some purists feathers and dive in the exciting world 1911s not chambered in .45 ACP. Of course, we'll also talk about the Lords caliber, but it won't be without a bit of debate about what the best caliber is for a 1911. Tune in and tell us, what do you think is the best caliber for a 1911?

We take a look at the Browning-designed M2, and subsequent M3AC, in today's episode of 2 Guys - 1 Gun. Affectionately known as "Ma Duece" the M2 is perhaps the pinnacle of all Browning designs, with it still serving in the US military in many capacities. The design is over 100 years old, and it doesn't look like it will be going anywhere anytime soon. Hang with the boys as they talk about the always loved M2.
