America’s Pit Bull The United States Marine Corps has always done things a little differently than the other branches of the service, and that’s a good thing. You want to have various tools in your toolbox to successfully tackle any problem that may arise. The problem is, that the Marine Corps is a part of […]
Zenith Firearms is making a new pistol braced MKE Z-5RS which has all the fun of the original without the tax stamp or a felony. The Zenith guns are every bit as fun as the originals and much easier to buy and maintain. The CDI (Chicks Dig It) factor on these guns is off the scale. […]
When new rifles come on the scene, there is often a sound and fury about them. The HK 433 is no different, but unfortunately, I think it’s a very underrated rifle in the modern era. While people drone on and on about the MCX, the FN SCAR, and the newest NGSW rifles, the HK 433 […]
Kraut Space Magic, as the meme goes, gave us the famed HK G11 rifle. The G11 was too Space-Age for the time and remains to this day. Even HK recently acknowledged the joke with a collectible hat featuring an astronaut armed with a G11. The space-magic clock of death tried its hardest to become a […]
One of the things movies always get wrong about firearms is how water will affect the way a bullet travels. Even in the otherwise-almost-too-real “Saving Private Ryan,” bullets are shown flying through water almost exactly as they do in the air: on a straight trajectory and with a lethal amount of kinetic energy. The truth […]
The MP7 is extremely compact, lightweight, can be used in very confined spaces, and is practically recoil-free. It can be carried continuously, making it the ideal personal weapon for the soldier of today. Those who carry it will be suitably armed for the broadest range of operations. – Heckler & Koch In 1989, NATO published […]
The Loadout Room team is back from SHOT Show and mostly recovered. Looking forward to some new partnerships and new products showing up on our site. Once the dust settles from all the vendors getting back into the swing of things, we’ll be getting a steady flow of new products to show you guys and […]
Manufactured by MKE of Turkey and imported by Zenith Firearms, the Z-5P SB is the closest thing you can get to an authentic Mp5 without buying an HK directly. The Z-5P (and its roller-delayed brethren) are manufactured on the same machines and in the same factory as licensed Turkish-made HK guns. I’ve written about my early impressions with this […]
With the quality of primary optics being at an all time high, I’ve noticed a trend of many shooters skipping back-up iron sights (BUIS) on their primary fighting rifle. I feel that if a gun is to be used for more than competition or as a range toy, BUIS are still a critical component to have. I was […]
The name FAB Defense should be no stranger to regular readers of the Load Out Room, the Israeli based company has had several of their products featured here before. FAB Defense made a name for themselves with their KPOS Glock carbine conversion kit and their GL-Core AR15 stock that was compatible with both civilian and […]
