Is the quad rail obsolete? The answer to that question is a resounding YES. In the not so recent past the rise of quad rail systems was stunning to see. It seemed like every week a new manufacturer was coming out with a new length rail system or a new fastening system to make their […]
Summer has arrived, and with it comes the best time of year to head to the shooting range for some family fun. Shooting sports are a popular family event for many of us, so we figured it was time to get people brainstorming and talking about what equipment they take to the range with them. […]
So I’d just like to come right out at the outset of this review and state that Talon Grips have probably provided the most satisfaction-per-dollar of any of the firearms modifications I’ve tried in recent memory. They are quite inexpensive, easy to install, non-permanent, and 100% effective at the specific improvement they offer. They’re just […]
The GunVault company, better known for their Cannon brand safes, has a line of electronically accessed safes for personal use. This trial focuses on the MiniVault biometric model called GVB 1000. The MiniVault comes packaged in a sturdy cardboard box with a carry handle. It’s an attractive package that makes the nine-pound safe easy to […]

A question I often get asked by my students is what type of sights should on my handgun. The answer to that question is it all depends on what the application of your handgun is. The classes I teach are all about surviving a dynamic situation that involves life and limb. So that is what […]
It’s no secret I am a fan of concealed carry. In one of my past articles, The Daily Arsenal of the Armed Citizen, I wrote about how critical I believe it is to carry a backup magazine for your concealed firearm. My current EDC holster is the remarkable Werkz BisectV2 appendix holster, which comfortably carries […]
It’s no secret that when asked what my favorite gun is my answer is always “The one i’m used to using”; but today i’m going to add another criteria. “The one I have on me when I need it”. For reasons that one’s destiny can explain better than any attempt to figure it all out, […]
As the years of workshop ownership pass, I’ve found myself in possession of more and more specialty tools. If you’d asked a spry tween named Tyler if he’d ever need a bench-mounted barrel vise, he would have likely cocked his head to the side like a dog who heard a whistle. Similarly, how many MGW […]
