“sidearm”

Can the same handgun serve as your home-defense piece, ride under a jacket as your concealed-carry pistol and hang on your hip when hunting as backup to ward off whatever threats you may encounter in the field? That’s a tall order, but the Colt Delta Elite performs all three admirably.

Since the cowboy era, it’s been common practice to get a lever-action rifle in the same caliber as your sidearm. The idea was simple: Tote a rifle that shoots your handgun loads, and you’ve just simplified your life. Though the practice isn’t quite necessary today, the tradition of offering lever-action rifles in handgun calibers lives on. One such rifle: Big Horn Armory's Model 89.

The Camp Guard is, at its core, the 1911-lover’s backcountry sidearm.
