Shooting Tips & How-To

Mastering The Glock Trigger

The Glock has undoubtedly become the most popular pistol for a great many reasons. From its overall simplicity and ease of use, to its reliability claims and complete support from aftermarket accessories, it has won a place in most safes across the US. Being very popular, people seek to become skilled in the platform and understand […]

Reaper Tips: Tactical Head Spin?

I’m sure I’m not the only one who see’s the tactical shooting videos with the fast head spin after completing a string of fire. It looks “high-speed” to someone just learning to shoot, but for those who get it, sometimes the tactical head spin can be a little too much. What are you looking at? […]

Travis Haley Venti 100 Shot Pistol Wake Up Drill

I had the chance to train with Travis Haley this year during one of his pistol classes here in south Texas. There were a ton of good takeaways from the class, so I thought I’d share a basic drill Travis recently recorded that any shooter can benefit from. The drill only takes 100 rounds of pistol […]

Watch: Warm Weather Concealed Carry

When the spring and summer months roll around our clothing selections change. Being able to carry the same weapon year around will require you to take a […]

Days of Guns: Smooth is Fast, Fast is Smooth

I was invited recently to shoot at Professional shooter Taran Butler’s private range just north of LA. It was a good day at the range with good company. Anyway, I’m not a big “match” (no one is shooting back at you either) shooter, but Taran is obviously a Pro and was a super nice guy. […]

5 Things to Check in Your Concealed Carry Ammo

We all do it. We pour a handful of ammo out of the box, stuff it into magazines and then go blasting. However, you should not do that with the ammo you will use in concealed carry. Why? Because, as a friend of mine has been known to say, “It is Murphy’s law, not Murphy’s […]

Lightening The AR Trigger Pull

When I started on the NRA Technical Staff, AR-type rifles were just starting to show up at Camp Perry. It wasn’t easy for the AR because you had old school military armorers who were skilled at and more comfortable accurizing M14s, and really no one had much confidence in the little .223-caliber bullets of the […]

The Beginner’s Guide to 3-Gun Competition

There’s Wednesday night bowling league, and the Father’s Day tourney at the municipal golf club. And then there’s the opportunity to become the best all-around shooter you’ve ever been—all while staying sharp for fall and having a ton of loud, fast-paced fun with your fellow shooters (not to mention preparing for the end of days, […]
