With three-quarters of a century of firearms expertise, Gun Digest remains the most trusted firearms annual in print.

This 77th edition is a celebration of American manufacturing ingenuity. Our cover image proudly shows off products from three iconic Made-in-USA brands: Springfield Armory, Leupold Optics and Federal ammunition. That’s just a taste of what’s inside, including:

• The Forgotten .33 Winchester
• A Tribute 1911
• Browning X-Bolt Rifles: Evolving Toward Perfection
• Marlin 1895 SBL .45-70
• Ruger Precision Custom Shop Special

In addition to this, all your favourite sections are there: gun tests, firearms features, product roundups, ballistic tables and more… For true firearms enthusiasts, Gun Digest 2023 proves familiar as the smell of Hoppe’s No. 9 and as vital as a zeroed scope!
