About Project Guns
Project Guns exists to document, explain, and preserve practical firearms knowledge—with an emphasis on mechanics, optics, and real-world application, not trends or consumer hype.
This site is built as a technical reference, not a recommendation engine.
Every article is written to explain how systems work, why design tradeoffs exist, and where common misunderstandings come from. The goal is long-term understanding, not fast opinions.
