It takes a good angle to stick out in the world of Ar15 magazines these days. The tug-of-war between Magpul and USGI aluminum mags hasn’t left a lot of room for newer or smaller competitors to make their way in the market. Hexmag’s 30-round mag’s visually distinctive grip pattern and use of the hexagonal-cut grip […]

Armscor 9mm Ammunition
Now that the Great Ammo Recession of 2008-2016 is over for most parts of the country, many shooters are hoping for a return to the days of cheap and abundant ammunition. Having had an opportunity in recent weeks to test out different 9mm loads, I was excited at the prospect of being sent an inexpensive […]
Innovative Arms W.A.R | Adjustable gas receiver
As the AR-15 platform has evolved from its origins as a plastic-furnished sporting rifle, to the nearly indistinguishable PDW’s and long range precision rifles of the modern era, the number, and type of accessories and options has increased exponentially. With variances in barrels and calibers, came adjustable gas blocks to mitigate excess blowback. Longer rails […]
Ranger Nutrition | Fuel for your flesh
Doing a bit of info gathering, one could easily identify a sizable portion of the Loadoutroom readership that’s currently (or has in the past) associated with either Law Enforcement or the US Armed Services. Among the non-LEO or MIL readers, there still exists a significant portion who share a common interest with our uniformed associates: […]
Gadsden Dynamics Triple-G: A compact, inconspicuous rifle mag carrier
Ohio based Gadsden Dynamics has been producing tactical gear under the philosophy: there is a niche for a lower profile, simplified kit. Using 100% Berry compliant materials (made in the USA), Gadsden Dynamics has engineered some solid gear while firmly adhering to the K.I.S.S principle. Count me unsurprised when Andy (the owner) wanted to send […]
Federal 9mm Ammo | Variety is the spice of pew pew
Any time I obtain a new gun, I try to run a variety of ammo through it to find which combination shoots best. Different weight projectiles and various bullet profiles can have significantly altered trajectories, with no way to predict (infallibly) which a specific firearm will prefer. With that in mind, I picked up three […]
US Army Airborne School | My Discovery Channel special
Way back in the early days of 2001 I had just graduated from Basic Training and Infantry AIT in the US Army. Next up was the revered Airborne School. My brother (4 years older) had just received the same school as a re-enlistment bonus from the USMC. The only problem, I was slated for class […]
Watch | A compilation of trick shots
These are heady days we’re living in, with guns and politics at the forefront of the mass media consciousness. With politics continuing its ever downward spiral into total incivility, sometimes it’s nice to take a step back and enjoy some of what brings us together: people enjoying the simple thrill of shooting. The following video […]
Exotac | Fire and fire related accessories
You’ve got to hand it to a company that specializes in and produces products within one category. It takes ingenuity and focus to keep your product line narrowly defined, not spiraling out into every conceivably related field. Such is the vision apparent within Exotac, a company which is centered around Ranger TV: fire and fire […]
Ranger Proof Enhanced ELC Carbine: Tough by Design
AR-15s have been described as the “barbie dolls for men”. I prefer to look at them as Legos with which we can build any rifle, pistol, or Short-Barreled Rifle style we want from a $400 plinker, to $3,000 safe queens. The available mix of after-market and factory parts is bewildering and offers more choice than […]
