Can you guys remember when SB Tactical and SIG released the first pistol brace? It set the firearms world on fire. People lost their minds and then we could shoulder it! Then we couldn’t. Now we can again! We have come a long way from the original SIG brace. I have my original model and comparing […]
If you can slap it on a Glock someone will make it. The Glock and the AR 15 share a lot of traits in terms of popularity. Some folks make awesome upgrades for them, some just make dumb stuff. Most of the time you can separate one from the other immediately, other times you need […]
The American Tactical AR-15 Shotgun, chambered in .410 is exciting. Semi automatic shotguns that look like military sporting rifles are nothing new, the Saiga 12 gauge has been out for years, but to our knowledge this is one of the first in .410 and in the AR-15 pattern.

As a man from Florida, I have a certain affinity for shoulder holsters. What do Shoulder holsters have to do with Florida? Well, a little show called Miami Vice featured the famous Galco Miami holster, aka the Jackass Rig. Since then I’ve associated shoulder holsters with my home state, pastels, and of course white blazers. […]

It is where you keep your high-end electronics, jewelry, tools, and cash that any criminal would like the opportunity to take. Your wife and children are potential […]
One of the main ideas behind putting a finish on firearm steel is to protect it from corrosion, right? Ironically enough, one of the most common firearms finishes, bluing, results from a specific form of steel oxidation – that is, rust. Instead of the red-brown color associated with rust (Fe2O3), bluing forms the blue/black oxide […]
I’ve always had a fascination with pistol caliber carbines. I own and have owned several and find them generally to be a blast to shoot. They can be taken to almost all ranges, the ammo is cheaper, they are easy to suppress and just fun to shoot. I’ve also taken to the idea of converting […]
WHITE BEACH NAVAL FACILITY, OKINAWA, JAPAN Marines with the Force Reconnaissance Platoon, part of the Maritime Raid Force, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, prepare for the explosive breach on the entrance of a notional enemy-held building during a capture or kill raid exercise here, Jan. 5.

So this is odd to me. I’m reviewing something, but it’s not a product, but a service. Don’t get me wrong I still have something to show you, but this review is more about the service. I’ve been working with GunGrips.net to produce a truly unique set of custom grips. Gun Grips is a service […]
