Professional Gear Reviews
It’s always interesting to see which articles really resonate with readers on our site. Some reviews and “How-to’s” fade quickly while others stay popular for years. One such article is “How to build an AR-15: A Beginner’s Guide” by Nate Schultz. It was published in July of 2017 and still regularly registers enough clicks to […]
A while ago I started penciling in the idea for an article titled “the expectations of accuracy”. Without diving all the way in, it’s all about defining your acceptable level of accuracy in training to match your required level of accuracy in the real world. If you need to hit the vitals on a deer […]
Water: a basic necessity for survival, but often enough treated as an afterthought. When heading out camping, most usually grab a gallon of it in a jug and go. What happens when you need more? You can drink from a stream, never-minding the pine needles and floaties, and pray that you don’t get crippling diarrhea. […]
Whether one is a competitive, recreational or professional shooter or a hunter looking to put meat on the table, one common trait we all share is looking for the next advantage. Whether its slightly more accurate ammo, a tougher optic or better camouflage, an edge is always sought after. After spending some significant time with […]
I always find it an interesting study when a company is named after something historical, whether a person or a group.

We at The Loadout Room spend a lot of time breaking down guns, gear and tactics. Sometimes it’s nice to kick back and watch a few videos from the lighter side of the shooting world, such mas meltdown testing, DIY explosive projectiles or trick shots. While the video below isn’t one of those listed above, […]
Suppressor durability is an often discussed topic these days. As technology, metallurgy and mounting systems change, so too the rate of ablation on these cans change. The same effect is true of rate-of-fire, with full-auto creating a far more harsh environment within the tube than slower rates of fire. As companies pour more money into […]
As CMMG passes 16 years in the firearms industry, it’s clear that their company has seen its share of ups and downs in the market. Between the panic buying days of 2008 to the easy-going “salad days” of 2018, much has changed. So too the company has changed over the years, but only for the […]
The Honey Badger is one of those few firearms that ascends above popular status and (for many) attains that highest level: iconic. It helped to redefine what a personal-defense weapon (PDW) should do, and how it should look. While stuck in development hell as designer Kevin Brittingham went from AAC to Sig to his latest […]
In the third part of this ongoing series detailing as many commercially available ultra-short (sub-7″).300 Blackout barrels as possible, I’m only adding one more barrel to the lineup, a 5″ slinger from Veritas Tactical, assembled into an impressive upper in conjunction with SLR Rifleworks, utilizing their 4.25″ Helix forend. I was also able to acquire […]
