Maximize Your Range Time: Firearms Training and Fun

Maximize Your Range Time: Firearms Training and Fun

With the recent ammo shortage, finding a way to reconcile firearm training with fun shooting can be a challenge in and of itself. As a concealed carry permit holder, and one who regularly carries, I have a responsibility to maintain proficiency with my carry piece(s).

Ruger Reinvents Rimfire Line Up

Over the last 50 years almost everyone who has been introduced to shooting has eventually owned a Ruger 10/22. The curse of having the same product line that has largely unchanged over the last 50 years is that the market has been extremely saturated. The executives and design team at Ruger noticed this and over […]

Choosing a Concealed Carry Pistol – Concealability vs. Capacity

One of the most challenging issues to solve when considering a pistol for concealed carry is managing the trade off between size and capacity. On the one hand, selecting a handgun with a small footprint for CCW makes it easier to conceal (and therefore, less likely to print). However, smaller guns simply don’t have the […]

Upgrading the Ruger Precision Rifle

Upgrading the Ruger Precision Rifle

Previously I wrote an article about the Ruger Precision Rifle.  In this video, I will show you a few minor upgrades that I’ve elected to do to suit my personal taste. The nice thing about this modular weapon system is that it’s loosely based on an AR-15 allowing you to use items that would normally […]

Magpul UBR Stock Install

Magpul UBR Stock Install

I have decided to upgrade some features on my Ruger SR-762. Upon initial release there were some complaints about this rifle. Mainly about the trigger, and some difficulty with the provided magazines (Magpul Gen2). Since its release Ruger has addressed these concerns by; upgrading the trigger with the Ruger Elite 452 AR-Trigger (this trigger is […]
