If you’ve ever had an AR-style rifle and tried taking your time during a precision shot, then you know the value of a smooth trigger pull. Generally speaking, the stock trigger on an AR-15 is garbage. I’ve had the same stock mil-spec style trigger in my CMMG lower receiver for years and have always hated […]
The Trijicon ACOG is a legendary optic among many servicemen who have relied upon its durability and versatility during combat. While I am lucky to count myself among that group, my time spent overseas was spent with the venerable TA01 which has been surpassed time and time again by more advanced offerings from Trijicon. While […]
The Remington 870 is one of my favorite shotguns for protection. It is simple to use, disassemble, reassemble, and troubleshoot. It has incredible stopping power and the mere sound of racking a new shell into the chamber is universally known, and feared. But what if you want a tool that can do more than one job? If […]
Nikon Monarch 7i VR Rangefinder I’ve always had a bit of trouble with binoculars and rangefinders. It seems that no matter how hard I work at it, the image seen within is never half as stable as I’d like it to be for comfortable and effective glassing: enter the Nikon Monarch 7i VR. The VR […]
Is the Glock magazine from Elite Tactical Systems just another polymer mag? Not really. The ETS magazine has a few features not found on the run-of-the-mill options out there.

There is a lot to like about the Gerber MP1-AR Multi-Tool – it provides an AR15 user a full compliment of tools to service their rifle while in the field or at the shooting range.

When choosing a weapon-mounted flashlight that will hold up under hard use, you have to consider the conditions for which it will be employed. If you intend to utilize your weapon light in the harsh conditions of Afghanistan, […]
Romanian versions of the AKM have long been among my favorite variants in the AK world. The foregrips are a real aid to shooting full-auto models, and they help control the semi-auto Romanian rifles better in rapid-fire, too. The original Romanian AKs were the Pistol Mitraliera model 1963 (PM md. 63), with a fixed stock, and the […]
Sometimes I find some interesting new products to try out that don’t have much info on them available. The Exotic Products 12 Gauge Ripper shells are no exception to that. As soon as I found out that these Ripper shells had steel tacks inside them I knew I had to see what kind of damage […]
In the following video I take a moment to talk about some of the more common duty and tactical holsters. We discuss height of carry, holster types and several other considerations. There are a multitude of good holsters out there and I was not able to include them all, don’t be offended if your holster […]
