Recently, I read an article by The Drive, which went into detail as to why the Groupe d’Intervention de la Gendarmerie Nationale, aka the GIGN, still holds a preference towards a revolver for a sidearm. Their revolver is a Manurhin MR73, a French firearm. Their particular model is 6 shot, .357 chambered. From reading the […]
The new year will bring a new rifle to Germany’s elite soldiers. In the upcoming months, the HK416 A7, which the Germans have designated the G95K, will be issued to the soldiers of the Kommando Spezialkrafte (KSK) and sailors of the Kommando Spezialkrafte Marine (KSM). The standing order is for less than 2,000 new rifles, to be […]
I hardly fanboy about gear and guns. I know what I like, and I don’t care who exactly makes it. One of the few things I do fanboy about is the Vickers Combat Application Sling by Blue Force Gear. You know those people who never shut up how the Wire and Breaking Bad are the […]
*Editors note: Photos and article have been shared with the permission of AMTAC Shooting. Where do you start and what should you get for your carbine? AR15 style rifles are more available and cheaper than they ever have been. There are also many more options/ brands than there have ever been. The intent of this article is […]
Getting excited about new guns can be a little risky. There’s never a shortage of hype, nor hyperbole. Too many times though, a great concept is spoiled by poor execution, leaving early fans feeling stilted. Even a design that flies out the door in a cloud of positive early impressions may have issues once the […]
The Remington 700 is the all-time best selling bolt-action rifle in America. Despite issues in recent years leading to a lot of bad press for the venerable 700, it is still a favorite of many shooters. Part of the 700’s success in enduring difficult times is it’s robust aftermarket support. The 700 is like the […]
Mission First Tactical (MFT) has the most photographed rifle stock to appear in gun rags this last year. And it’s easy to see why. The Battlelink Minimalist Stock is easy on the eyes. After spending some quality time at the local pewpewpew spot, I found that it’s not just the eyes it’s easy on. 5.8 ounces. […]
I prefer 2 part drills. Even if it’s one string of fire, I try to find a way to part it out. Like how I did on the Bill Drill. This one is two part in a different way. The Hold Drill teaches and tests at the same time. I’m sure I’m not the first […]
The RASC (Revolver Ammunition Strip Concealment) is the first solution to address pocket carrying revolver ammunition with a pocket clip. This is the first product to be completely CNC Machined in-house with our HAAS. We CNC machine from 6061 aluminum and anodize black. The Titanium pocket clips are Cerakote black. The RASC is backed with […]
If there is one word I hate to hear more than any other it’s “proprietary,” at least when it comes to guns. Proprietary rails, magazines, etc are typically a real pain in the ass. Especially when an industry standard already exists. If you make a 5.56 semi-automatic, magazine fed rifle and it doesn’t use the […]
