Liberty Civil Defense 9mm| Further Review

Liberty Civil Defense 9mm | Further Review

Recently I started a two-part review of Liberty ammunition’s Civil Defense round.  Part 1 can be read here.  A +P defensive load zipping out around 2150 FPS, this diminutive 50gr bullet looks impressive.   I had some doubts during my first range day as my chronograph was recording high variability in the velocity.  This manifested […]

Triggrcon 2018 | A breath of fresh air

Triggrcon 2018 | A breath of fresh air

Having just returned from my first Triggrcon, I thought I’d share a few notes and products from the event.  For those who don’t know, Triggrcon is a firearms industry convention started by John Hwang (Rainier Arms owner) that is hosted annually in the Pacific Northwest. First I’d like to mention how different Triggrcon is from […]

CompM5

Aimpoint CompM5 | Efficiency meets durability

While Aimpoint products have been used by the US military (among others) for decades now, the Swedish optics company is still working to produce the gold standard in red-dot technology.  When the CompM5 was released in Fall of 2017, I set to work getting my hands on a T&E sample.  Having had the CompM5 for […]

Behemoth Sweetfire

UCO | Behemoth Sweetfire match kit

UCO is a company that has been bringing innovation to the outdoor products market for nearly half a century.  While the titular acronym stands for Utility, Comfort and Originality, the company’s products also feature another aspect, simplicity.  So it was with the Behemoth Sweetfire match kit. Why Behemoth? Well, these are essentially massive matches with stormproof strike tips.  […]

DuoJet

Kershaw DuoJet | Form and function

Kershaw is at it again.  The Tualatin, Oregon based manufacturer has released another batch of new knife models: I was lucky enough to get my hands on one to T&E, the DuoJet. The Kershaw DuoJet has a 3.25″ long 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade, that’s titanium carbo-nitride coated.  The 4.5″ handle has matching gray titanium carbo-nitrided steel contrasting […]

Ultradyne C4

Ultradyne C4 Precision folding iron sights | A precise point of view

While much of the casual shooting market has moved away from iron sights for economical reasons, competitive and occupational shooters know the value of a good set of back up iron sights (BUIS).  Ultradyne has upped the ante, producing BUIS that are designed to be both rugged and precise.  Today we’re talking about the Ultradyne C4 […]

Watch | Learn wind calls for long distance shooting

Watch | Learn wind calls for long distance shooting

In the world of long-range shooting, it is often said that “Beginners talk ballistics, experts talk wind calls”.  Indeed, there seems to be as much myth as there is math regarding the correction of the horizontal component of trajectory, so here’s a video from Outdoor Life’s “Gun Lab” series, covering wind reads. -Rex Nanorum @Rexnanorum […]

Homemade range

Watch | Best method constructing a homemade shooting range

More and more often, private landowners are eschewing driving to public shooting ranges when they could build a safe and private place homemade range. After doing a considerable amount of research on various construction methods, one of the safest and most economical seems to be to use old railroad ties backed by an earthen berm.  […]

Red Rock Outdoors | Slingin' It

Red Rock Outdoors | Slingin’ It

Everyone loves the big flashy accessories in the shooting world.  Each new scope, rangefinder or stock will generate quite a bit of buzz.  Just as important are the small pieces that complete the setup.  If you’ve ever had a sling break during a hunt or ruck march, you know their value. There seems to be […]
