Hawks Eye Guns

Weatherby makes a big splash in the waterfowl vertical in 2024 with the Sorix. It goes right after the segment leaders and makes a good showing while doing it. We are impressed and can't wait to get our hands on one.

Join us for a cast filled with the childhood of boys everywhere in the form of Han Solo's blaster - that really works! We're not kidding this thing is awesome and for way more money than you might want to spend you can have one too!

A lot is going on in the last bit for us here at Hawks Eye Guns. Sean has four new additions to his collection and a new piece of sweet gear to boot! He is very excited about it all. He is less stoked for the apology he has to make this cast.

Kicking off Jake's new format we begin with the tragic tale of Remington's 105 CTi. It's terrible, hard to find, and funny-looking so of course Sean is obsessed with it. Then in better form, we talk about more desirable guns that are equally discontinued.

So we settle in for over an hour and a half of gun talk this time on the cast. Okay, not entirely an hour and a half. We did drift a bit talking about Halle Berry and her dogs in JW3 and then to dogs but we had a strong start with a solid hour of guns and nothing but guns!

There was a flurry of activity for Jake and I with the cooler weather. Sean went shooting a bunch and fixed up an older gun with Dura-Blue. Jake switched up his HK for the smaller version and we both have seen prices come down on polly-framed, striker-fired rigs.

We normally don't do this in several respects. The first is you will hear this exact same cast on Gentlemen's Soapbox as well as here as the topics mostly apply to both channels. If you listen to one you'll hear the show on the other channel this time out. The other abnormal thing is we really try to steer clear of politics here at Hawk's Eye Guns but the governor of New Mexico is making that very difficult at the moment.

We test out a few new guns this week. In Jake's case one that has been sitting in the safe for a year and he finally gets to shoot and Sean meets the new Cheetah 80x at a range. It is an interesting time but be warned the Yc9 has finally been released and both of us can hardly contain ourselves with excitement.

It's getting into summer here at Hawk's Eye Guns and we are exploring all kinds of things which leads us back to our roots.

We cover a wide range of topics this week on the show. From A pair of new'ish Buckmarks to an HK 22L that seems to run clean as a whistle we cover a lot of bases this week.

We had to go see JW4 and after we saw it we had to talk about it! Any fan of gun-fu and firearms would have to agree with this. So we did and here it is. This isn't our standard cast so prepare for some movie geeking out on this one!

It's quite a thing when you get something you saw at Shot Show a few months ago sitting in your hand but that's exactly what happened in this case. Yep, we got a Henry Homesteader and we are stoked about it!

We take a look and what Jake wants next and why then talk about the newest editions of what's coming to the 23/24 shelves soon.

We start off geeking out about the bevy of screen grabs from the John Wick 4 trailer and the guns he's got his hands on this time out. Then we roll into Sean's new member of the family in the form of the very popular CZ1012!

We take a look at the new goodies presented at Shot Show this year and sound off on how we think they will be received and which ones we think we may just have to get a hold of when they hit shelves later this year. Then Jake tears a hole in Sean's calm with the new Bond Arms offering coming later this year.

We swing into Shot Show season here in 2023 and brace for all the things we probably won't be getting until 2024! We also get some follow-ups on emails and Sean gets to go shooting after a month of waiting.

For the first very time, we get to answer and chat about questions you've asked us! That's right, our email is open, you guys asked - and we answer. That's how it works this time out on the show!

We had some extra audio for the last few casts that I strung together along with some outtakes and just me and Jake messing around so I bundled them together and punched out a cast for you guys. Happy Holidays and we'll see you in 2023!

We get a great question from you guys about selecting your concealed carry option on today's show then spend a good deal of time talking about what decisions you need to make and how to make them along with what we carry and how we came to that choice. Join us for a completely great discussion!

Sean put the Henry .44mag lever action carbine to use recently (or tried to) and let us know how it went and what went down.
