The Browe Tactical Optic: The ACOG Killer

The Browe Tactical Optic: The ACOG Killer

“You come at the king, you best not miss” These wise words were uttered by Warrior Poet Omar Little, but I feel they apply to the Browe Tactical Optic. The king, in this case, being Trijicon and their famous ACOG optic. The challenger to the king is Browe-Inc and the Browe Tactical Optic. Browe has […]

K Bar Soap Co: Ditch the Bar Grab a Grenade

If you’ve read the Loadout Room for any period of time you know we are staffed by vets. Tons of vets, Army Rangers, Green Berets, Air Force Engineers, SERE Specialists, and of course Marines. As a veteran owned and operated company we always like to help our fellow veterans. Today we want to highlight The […]

The Suarez Covert 12 - The Ultimate Not a Shotgun

The Suarez Covert 12 – The Ultimate Not a Shotgun

I like shotguns…like a lot. You may have noticed I also have an affinity for the so-called “Not a shotgun” firearms. These “Not a Shotguns” are guns like the Remington Tac 14 and Mossberg Shockwave. Gabe Suarez of Suarez International has been a big fan of these “Not a Shotgun” NFA free short barreled guns. He […]

FN America Releases 2 New California-Legal FN 15 Rifles

California DOJ loses big – Withdraws New Assault Weapon Definition

California loves to hate guns. They are constantly moving the goal post on their gun control agenda. This is the state that’s implemented fictional microstamping technology into their gun laws. Everyone remembers the gunpocalypse in California in 2016. One of the new laws was a redefining what an assault weapon is, going beyond even their previous definition. […]

3D Printed Guns: More on the Horizon - TheArmsGuide.com

The Death of Gun Control? – Defense Distributed Wins

The fear and loathing caused by Defense Distributed and their Liberator printed pistol gave me the sweetest of smiles back in 2013. The anti-gun crowd and the general mass media ate the story up. Story after story commented on how dangerous this 3D printed, single shot 380 was. Plenty of lies were spread about the […]

RIA VR 60 12 Gauge Semi Auto

First Look – The RIA VR 60 12 Gauge Semi Auto

Box Fed shotguns are an absolute blast. While I love the tube for its merits something about a box fed shotgun is just fun. Remington and Mossberg both agreed and released mag fed pump actions, but let’s face it, mag fed should mean semi-auto. Rock Island Armory is certainly taking that route with the RIA […]

The Cobra Tac 2 Marine – First Look

Man, there is something sexy about a Marine shotgun. That hard plated chrome or stainless steel finish on a pump action shotgun. Most major companies produce a Marine Magnum style shotgun, and they all look amazing. The Cobra Tac 2 Marine model looks just as amazing as any Remington or Mossberg. In fact, it might […]

Train and Shoot With Both Eyes Open: Tactical Rifleman Video

The Collateral Drill…Yo Homie is that my briefcase

Michael Mann knows guns, and he likes to make sure he gets their use, how they function, and what you can do with one. Heat is legendary in the gun community and movies like Miami Vice and of course Collateral can’t be forgotten. Collateral is what we looking at today. The famous “Yo homie is […]

The SIG P365 Ammo Edition – Little Gun Food

If you’ve ever raised a dog, you know that puppies start with puppy chow and big guys get adult dog food. Is there a reason guns should be any different? An odd question to ask but SIG Sauer is living up to their name of being a full systems provider. They unveiled their new ammunition […]

The Modern Warrior T1 Target – Train Like You Fight

The military moved away from standard bull’s eye targets years ago when it comes to combat training. You’ll see them here and there for fundamentals training, but when it comes to stacking bodies they use man-shaped targets. Why? Because the idea is you train like you fight. The man shaped targets give soldiers a more […]
