On the SIG X-Five air pistol packaging it says it, “Shoots like a SIG because it is one.” The remark on the packaging is accurate.

Blackhawk Sportster Pistol Range Bag – Make Life Easy
Range bags make life so much easier. If you’ve built a dedicated range bag you really don’t know the level of convenience you are missing out on. I remember the days where I was shoving guns in the Tupperware they came with and putting ammo, ear and eye pro into a grocery bag. Times have […]
Math and Guns – How Math Can Improve Your Shooting
I’ll be the first to admit that I hate math – it never was my strong suit. However, visiting the range reminds me that math has “real life” applications, including improving your shooting. Long range shooters, like snipers, are especially aware of how mathematics and physics must be effectively employed to achieve accuracy. However, short […]
The Blackbeard Peacekeeper: A Low Profile Duty Belt
What’s weird about gun belts is they are both a piece of fashion and utility. Whenever you lean towards one way or another, you sacrifice certain things. A fashionable belt that supports a gun is almost never perfect regarding comfortable carry. Your limited belt holes often give you that slightly too tight or too loose […]

We can mitigate the risks, but no matter what kind of technological developments we have applied, guns remain dangerous. How dangerous? That depends on the shooter and […]
Best Gun For The SEALs? Sig MK25 vs Glock19
People are so offended by the Glock19 replacing the MK25. Sig and Glock fans argue whether the Navy SEALs are stupid or smart for hours. I doubt this is going to be an argument that will cease any time soon. I want to add my 2 cents on what might be going on here. Our military […]
Sig Upgrades the P365 to Improve Performance
The SIG P365 shook the industry up when it appeared. Not just another polymer mini concealed carry gun, the P365 is a big gun is a small frame. SIG has put 10+1 rounds in a flush fitting magazine. The P365 challenges mini-guns like the Glock 43 in size but with almost double the magazine capacity. Sig has […]
SIG SAUER 556R Russian
Before I start my review of the SIG 556R I want to do a short review of SIG’s customer service. I purchased this rifle heavily discounted because of issues with failing to extract and failing to eject. I knew off the bat I’d be sending it to SIG for repairs, and any repair costs would […]
