The PTR91 GI Model is a true Battle Rifle in every bit of the definition. It is durable, it has little recoil, it has great accuracy at range, and it is even modular. PTR really makes a winner with this model. This rifle has a long history before PTR got their hands on the blueprints and started […]

Shots Fired: Smith & Wesson M&P 10 Sport ~ VIDEO
Not long ago we gave you a tabletop look at Smith & Wesson’s M&P 10 Sport. If you missed it, go back and see the report by following the link. I didn’t have much experience with rifles from Smith & Wesson and wondered if the rifle would be of any real quality, or just another […]
Smith & Wesson M&P 10 Sport: VIDEO
AR-10s seem to be on the rise. My theory is that everyone already has an AR-15 (or three) and are looking for something a little different. .308 ammunition is plentiful, and if you shop smartly can be found for under $0.50 per round. The extra whallop, increased hunting potential, and tribute to Eugene Stoner’s original […]
How It Works: H&K’s Roller-Delayed Blowback Operating System
The roller-delayed blowback system can be confusing at times to understand, but I hope this video is educational in understanding how G3/MP5 type actions work. The term “roller-locked” is an incorrect description due to how this system is designed. Unlike the FAL and other popular .308 rifles of yesteryear, the G3/PTR91/C308 do not use a […]

Why I own ‘so many’ guns
The topic of private gun ownership is often a fraught one, especially in the wake of a mass shooting here in the United States. For that reason, this author has deliberately waited for a lull in such shootings to write this article. We are not currently in the heat of a raging gun control debate, […]
Ranger Sniper Discusses Milliradians
If you’ve read my review of Ryan Cleckner’s Long Range Shooting Handbook: A Beginners Guide you will know how highly I thought of Ryan’s ability to translate complex knowledge into caveman speak. Before he was a published author, he appeared as a guest instructor on tv’s Top Shot and put out a number of instructional YouTube videos […]
Disruptive Environments 762 heavy chest rig
As I continue to build my SR 762 from Ruger (.308) I decided to acquire a chest rig (see the first article in the build series here). I have a plate carrier already (which this rig can attach to), but I wanted something lightweight I could use while hunting with this platform (WA a .308 […]
RevolutionARy: The 5.56-Sized POF Revolution .308 Battle Rifle
Courtesy of Tactical Life The AR-15 is a great platform. It’s light and mobile and can be fired quickly and accurately. It just doesn’t have much of a punch. But what if you could take the best attributes of the AR-15 and chamber it in .308? Wouldn’t that be revolutionary?” I was sitting in Frank […]
