We used to say we owned the night, and we owned the night for two reasons. First, superior technology that allowed us to see the world in bright green light. Second, we had superior training. Today we are going to talk about the technology side of owning the night. We aren’t talking night vision, though, […]
Like most gear enthusiasts I have a problem not putting the “best” gear on my rifle. What is the best? Gear that is used and vetted by only the most accomplished/published gunfighters in the business. For the longest time, I’ve only trusted Surefire lights on my weapons. They’ve never failed me at home or abroad […]

We know there are tons of vendors willing to sell you lots of things you don’t need. The “lightweight rifle” won’t remain that way if […]
Dangerous threats come at all hours of the day, and we can’t plan on having enough light in a time of need to be able to drop the son of a bitch intending you and your family harm. I’m a firm believer in having a weapon mounted light nearby for when the sun goes down […]
I have a penchant for Streamlight weapon lights. I have them on my personal guns and my work guns. Streamlight offers a moderately priced, dependable setup that rivals the performance of many more expensive weapon lights. The TLR-1 HL Long gun kit synthesizes a TLR weapon light with an augmented lumen total and a dual-operation […]
