Aimpoint Micro H-2 | The last red dot you’ll ever need
During the majority of my military service with the 2nd Ranger Battalion, I used an Aimpoint M68/Comp M2. While I also used an ACOG at times, the trusty Comp M2 rode with me on nearly every mission during my 5 combat deployments. Never one hiccup, never one failure. Aimpoint (of Sweden) earned a great deal […]
Grey Ghost Gear range bag | Deployment ready
Grey Ghost Gear (GGG) is one part of the strategic triumvirate that also features Grey Ghost Precision (GGP) and Tactical Tailor. While GGP deals in lead-slinging hardware and Tactical Tailor knocks out mind-boggling amounts of gear tailor-made for warfighters, GGG has a somewhat smaller scope. To me, the result of this focus is GGG having an […]
Mission First Tactical Torch backup light

V Seven 11-Position Buffer Tube for the AR-15
V Seven Weapons Systems has been producing some killer products for the AR-15 for a while now, but the items that really make them stand out from the crowd are their parts made from titanium and 2055 lithium-aluminum alloy (which is better than 7075 aluminum in just about every way).

Â True, Â the majority of those people are law enforcement officers (LEO’s), active military or are in the contractor world.

Xtreme Precision Extended Takedown Pin Set
If two is one and one is none, then the little things are big and the big things are essential. I’ve said it in more than a few of my articles: America’s next battle rifle will be less of a paradigm shift and more of a collection of all the incremental improvements made over decades […]
Spartan Blades CQB Tool | A Force Multiplier
If necessity is the mother of invention, then experience is the grandpappy of refinement.  Ever since the advent of the firearm, soldiers have carried edged weapons as a backup.  From Pirates to Hessians to Rangers, fighters know the value of good steel.  Far from another Rambo or Crocodile Dundee monstrosity, the Spartan Blades CQB tool is a […]
Suppressed Armament Systems | Blast Diverter
Those of us who have had the pleasure of shooting suppressed weapons know how much more enjoyable those little cylinders can make the shooting experience.  Similarly, we who have stood next to someone on the range who was shooting with a muzzle brake on a magnum caliber or a short barreled rifle will attest that experience is about […]
