Professional Gear Reviews
A custom Wilson Combat Glock pistol might be about as good as it gets. For more than 40 years, Wilson Combat has been the leader in custom 1911 pistols and parts. Over the years, Wilson has branched out to other areas that Bill Wilson has an interest in. These include AR rifles in 14 different […]
In 2016, I embarked on a mission to learn the trade of long-range shooting. Along the way I’ve written articles covering some of the equipment individually. I also wrote about my experiences while training. What I neglected to do is put together a long range shooting loadout. This article will include the items I pack […]

Growing up competing in various forms of motorsports, I appreciate the fine details and skill needed to build a fast, lightweight and capable machine.

Â That patent (having lapsed in 2008) has opened up a big niche in the optics market for those who want something close to what the ACOG provides, […]
The Fort Discovery Expedition rifle is as much an experience as a firearm. Built from top-quality components and presented as a package that is part defensive rifle and part history lesson, the Expedition is a viable utility gun that comes with some nifty accessories, all in an exceptionally cool wooden box. In a sea of otherwise unremarkable AR rifles, […]

The Streamlight series of weapon lights ranges from rifle to pistol lights. My review is specifically on the Streamlight TLR 3. The TLR 3 is a compact rail mounted tactical light.

This past October my wife and I celebrated our 6th Anniversary and as a gift, she put together a ‘man can’ of my favorite gun goodies. Included in this was a set of Walker Razor earmuffs. I had wanted new a set of electronic muffs for some time. My last set grew a pair of […]
As some SOFREP readers may be aware, I didn’t start my journey into firearms as a Glock guy – in fact, the first legitimate firearm I ever purchased was by trusty old 1911. It took time, and the constant badgering of men with tactical experience and proficiency I respected to convince me that I needed to try […]
