All guns. No agenda.
Properly Armed is a handgun reference database and buyer's guide built for people who want honest, independent information — whether they're buying their first gun or their fifteenth. No advertising. No agenda. No gatekeeping.
The database currently covers over 6,600 handgun records across 1,900+ in-production models, with detailed specifications, magazine compatibility data, and editorial guidance on what actually matters when choosing a defensive firearm.
The Guide tab covers everything a new owner needs to know — safe handling, how handguns work, ammunition, holsters, carry, and the legal side of defensive use. The Handguns tab is the full database, filterable by caliber, size, trigger type, safety configuration, and more. The Magazines tab lets you find compatible magazines for any gun in the database.
If you open a gun's detail view and click the Magazine Pattern field, it will take you directly to every compatible magazine in the database.
Data is researched and maintained by hand. Where specifications are unverified or estimated, records are marked accordingly. Coverage improves continuously — if you find an error or a missing model, the contact information below is the right place to send it.
