After leaving the Marine Corps, Noisefighters owner Neal Brace had more in mind than drinking a few beers and picking up some odd jobs. He set his sights on inventing and producing upgrades and improvements for a number of different products. From scope throw levers to improved AR charging handle designs, Neal’s had no shortage […]
Today we’re continuing our journey through the ultralight AR15 build, covering the lower receiver, version 2.0. The upper receiver article is covered here, while the full rifle article is coming next. To recap, originally I wanted to build a tough, accurate rifle that came in under 6lbs, with the suppressor and optic included in that […]
Condor Outdoors has been making products for over 20 years now. Starting with camping supplies, the Irwindale, CA based business soon expanded their product lines to include tactical gear. While their foreign-produced products gained some notoriety years ago for lackluster quality-control, I’ve heard from a number of people that Condor has tightened up their program […]
Leupold has been a leader in the optics market for many years. In the past decade, their dominance has come under fire from companies offering less-expensive optics, most of which are made in Japan. The question many asked: “will Leupold cut corners to try and compete at lower prices, or maintain status as a premium […]
Battle Werx LLC is a custom firearms machine shop out of Durham, Connecticut. This Veteran owned and operated company has produced some of the best looking cuts on a custom Glock slide that I’ve seen. Despite owning nearly a dozen over the years, I’ve never ventured into custom cut slides before. Until now. Having written […]

The NeoMag is a handy little device. With it, you’re able to discreetly carry an extra magazine, while ensuring it stays vertical and properly oriented in your pocket. Â Not long ago I did an initial impressions article, but wanted to follow up after carrying this with me every day and getting some good range time […]
Most gun owners I know have a respectable sized stable of firearms at their disposal. Few enthusiasts it seems, are single firearm owners. With many guns comes many accessories. Slings, scopes, magazines…. the costs add up quickly. While the most used (and abused) rifles may find themselves adorned with the most expensive optics the shooter […]
Glock’s are hugely popular: this is as obvious a statement to gun enthusiasts as “Chevy 350’s are common” is to motor heads. While a number of shooters may prefer something other than Gaston Glock’s polymer wonder, few can argue against its out-of-the-box performance. Aside from tritium sights, I’ve never felt like the seven Glocks I’ve […]
We at Loadout Room are always looking for innovative products that are also built to last. We’ve had the opportunity to run a good amount of equipment from Grey Ghost Gear recently. While much of it has been overtly tactical in nature, this article focuses on a product that puts the “Grey” into “Grey Ghost […]
