Moving on to the next part of Kalashnikov correct nomenclature. We already discussed the AK and the AKM assault rifles and now it’s time to change calibers. In late 1960s early 1970s the Soviet Defence Ministry received a number of captured M16 assault rifles. What came with them was the 5.56×45 ammunition. The Russian designers […]
On SOFREP radio, live with Nick Irving – He was just telling us about his new rifle. Check out their site – It looks amazing. The Reaper at the Arsenal Democracy
After the AK went into mass production, Kalashnikov did not stop his work there. As the stamped receiver concept was pretty much still on his mind, he put his work into modernizing the AK. In 1959 the Modernized version of the AK came into being and was accepted into service in the Soviet Red Army […]
I think it is time to set the record straight. Some of you might think they own an AK47, unfortunately you do not. Unless of course, you are the Kalashnikov Museum in Izhevsk, Russia. The AK47 has for many many years been the most prolific terminological mistakes made. It has grown to become an urban […]
After a short wait, the Reaper 33 AR-15 is finally on the market. With all of the testing that has been put into the rifle from SEAL’s, 1st SFOD, Rangers, Green Berets, JTAC’s, etc., I can honestly say that the AR holds up to its name. Stay tuned for the Reaper 33’s first HALO jump […]
The MSBS or Modułowy System Broni Strzeleckiej (eng. Modular Small Arms System) is primed to be the next generation assault rifle for the Polish Armed forces. Designed entirely in Poland as a collaboration between the WAT (eng. Military Technical Academy) and the Łucznik Firearms Plant in Radom, this platform has seen many changes over the […]
Back in 2005 the Tarnów Mechanical Plant begun work on a new generation of sniper rifles for the Polish Army. Unlike many other companies the Tarnów plant developed a Bullpup design sniper rifle family. Meet the Bor and the Tor. The anti-materiel rifle Tor chambered in .50 BMG was developed first. Then the .308 Win […]
At this year’s MSPO, Polish manufacture HS Product presented the new Croatian Assault Rifle. Apart from pistols (in the US sold as Springfield XD) little was known about rifle manufacturing at HS Product. We were shown two models, both full length army assault rifles, the earlier VHS-1 and the current VHS-2. Basic overview (note we did not […]
In the precision rifle community, there are a ton of platforms that one can choose to run, whether you are a competition precision shooter, or a tactical precision shooter/sniper. Operating as a sniper with the 75th Ranger Regiment, my platform of choice was the SR-25 MK 11 MOD 0. It easily held a 1 MOA […]
After talking with the guys over at Arsenal Democracy, we decided to build an AR-15 upper named “Reaper 33”! Something that I take great pride in, is the fact that the “Reaper 33″ is not only made from high quality material, but it is manufactured here in the US by former and active duty Special […]
