RECOIL (gun magazine)

RECOIL is a magazine dedicated to handguns, tactical rifles, tactical knives and other shooting-related activities in the United States. It claims to cater to the "Firearms Lifestyle".

The magazine primarily offers reviews on guns, ammunition, knives, and shooting gear; as well as gunsmithing tips, historical articles, gun collecting, self-defense and automobiles. In addition to those departments, each issue contains a few featured articles and personality profiles of people in the firearms industry as well as press releases of new products. Each issue includes a fold-out target.

The magazine debuted in February 2012 as a quarterly magazine and by December 2012 became bi-monthly.
