My SCAR 16s review so far has focused on a broad overview of the weapon. Part two will feature how the SCAR 16s handles, shoots, and feels. The intention of my SCAR 16S review is to give shooters on the fence an accurate explanation of the way the weapon functions and handles. I’m trying to avoid […]

Pictured is my 16-year-old daughter shooting my Colt AR rifle with Spikes Tactical Compressor upper, Trijicon red dot, Magpul furniture and sling, and InForce light wearing Howard Leight Impact Sports hearing protection improved by Valholl Gear gel ear […]
If it ain’t raining it ain’t training in the Pacific Northwest. Pictured here are the Nomad 9, Glock 19, S&W Shield, Maglula, and KCI USA Glock 19 magazines.
Regardless of whether you are a hunter, soldier, or shooting enthusiast you can benefit from a sling.
