The May issue of Shooting Illustrated is available to subscribers today, with a special emphasis on the new pistols, rifles and shotguns of 2022. More than 100 new handguns, rifles, carbines and shotguns are profiled in this issue, with all the important specifications listed and interesting features highlighted. If it was introduced recently, chances are it’s in this issue, giving you all latest info on all the newest guns in one handy guide.

Highlights from the May Issue include our “Best of the Best” selections for the 2021 Golden Bullseye. These are the rifles, shotguns, pistols, ammunition, accessories and other gear that really stood out from the crowd last year.

Speaking of lasting contributions, few pistols can match the legacy of the iconic 9 mm Hi Power. The Hi Power not only has decades of service with law enforcement agencies and militaries around the world, it is also a hugely popular defensive and competition pistol as well. Richard Mann takes a look at the EAA MC P35, a new version of this legendary pistol, to see if it lives up to the Hi Powers of years past.

Also in the May issue, Steve Tarani tells us that while guns and gear are great, it’s what’s inside your head that makes all the difference in the world when everything is on the line.
