The precision rifle and sniper community has been turning out a ton of readily available sniper apps. Some are very affordable and some not so much. I’m going to give Loadout Room readers an effective medium by covering the affordable and easy to use apps that I personally use. These apps have everything you’ll need […]
Reaper Tips: The Perfect Rifle Cartridge
Although there is no such thing as a perfect cartridge, we can take a look at a few cartridges and the characteristics that make them as good as they come.
Vortex Viper and Diamondback Binoculars
If you’re a military observer, hunter, or sightseer, there is one product that should always be in your toolbox. A set of dependable binoculars. One of my favorite brands of binoculars on the market is the Vortex line. Within the Vortex line, the Viper and Diamondback are at the top of my list for quality, […]
Glock vs. 1911
Glock vs. 1911? I’m sure this will spark a conversation just by bringing up this topic in the pistol community. I get asked all the time at ranges from all types of owners, may they be LE, Military (former or active), or just an individual who owns a firearm for self-protection, “What pistol do you […]
Fitting Your Glock!
I love my Glock pistols, but I run into the problem of them not fitting just right in my hand. The way the middle finger knuckle rubs up against the trigger guard, the beaver tail not fitting your hand for a higher grip, the pistol grip slipping from your hand in sweaty or moist conditions, are some of […]
Fighting from a Vehicle
I’m sure we’ve all seen the videos on YouTube of a family being confronted by a group of aggressive individuals on the highway, the parents pulled out of the car and beaten in front of their kids. Or maybe you’ve heard the stories of private military contractors caught in an ambush on the roads of […]
Compact Semi Auto Sniper System?
During my time as a sniper in 3rd Ranger Battalion, the weapon/sniper rifle of choice was the SR-25 or the .300 WIN MAG in an AI chassis. The M110 SASS (Semi-Automatic Sniper System) was something that we had in our arsenal, but many of us flat-out didn’t like it. The SASS did have a few […]
Reaper Tips: Tactical Head Spin?
I’m sure I’m not the only one who see’s the tactical shooting videos with the fast head spin after completing a string of fire. It looks “high-speed” to someone just learning to shoot, but for those who get it, sometimes the tactical head spin can be a little too much. What are you looking at? […]
The PDX1 Defender Shotgun Ammunition
The U.S. has the best-armed civilian population in the world, with an estimated 270 million total guns. That’s an average of 89 firearms for every 100 residents. Many of these firearms fall in the Shotgun category, one of the most used home defense weapons systems in America. I often get asked, “what’s the best home […]
Remington R51
Remington introduces its R51 pistol, a modern version of the old Remington Model 51 released in 1918. The original Remington Model 51 relied on a unique type of action created by John Pedersen, a designer best known for the “Pedersen Device” that turned a bolt-action Springfield 1903 rifle into a semi-automatic magazine-fed pistol caliber rifle with a simple bolt change. Like the […]
