4 min read Getting Started

The guest article form is for useful firearms and firearms-adjacent writing that fits our readers.

  1. Open Submit an Article
  2. Enter the article and author details
  3. Pay the editorial review fee and submit

Before you submit

Use an original article with a clear title, useful facts, and a firearms-related topic. Do not submit copied work, unsafe instructions, or promises that a product will solve a legal or safety problem.

Review and payment

The form shows the current review fee before secure checkout. Payment buys editorial review; it does not guarantee publication. Keep a copy of your draft.

After submission

The editorial team reviews the submission. We may approve it, request changes, or decline it. Watch your email for the decision.

Common questions

Does payment guarantee publication?
