M134 Minigun: Forgotten Weapons Video

The General Electric M134 “Minigun” is essentially an electrically-powered Gatling gun – the conceptual operation of the gun is identical to Dr. Gatling’s original creation. What has changed, however, is the chambering (it’s in 7.62 NATO), the power source (an electric motor), and the feed mechanism (belt-feed using M60 links instead of the Gatling’s Accles, […]

The Best Handgun Caliber? A Real World Study

This Rational Preps video uses the data from Greg Ellifritz’s 10-year stopping power study of real-world gun fights to shed the light of actual data on several common beliefs about handgun calibers. The results may surprise you. Here is the link to the original data and study by Ellifritz: http://www.activeresponsetraining.net…

The Bravo Concealment Adaptive Holster – Stay Alpha

Modularity has really snuck into the holster market. From Alien Gear, Clinger Holsters, and Bravo Concealment have all taken the idea of modularity and applied it to holsters. The Bravo Concealment Adaptive holster system is a bit different by offering a light gearing option and being made entirely from kydex. This is a very modern […]

Hollywood LITE .22 Suppressor: True Colors

Hollywood LITE .22 Suppressor: True Colors

The Hollywood Lite is the FIRST color matched suppressor for the Ruger 22/45 Lite series of colored pistols. Made in the USA by  WHISPERTEC™  the Hollywood LITE weighs only 6.6 ounces and will fit any 22LR pistol or rifle with a ½-28 threaded muzzle.

NcStar’s FlipDot Reflex Sight – A Budget RDS

Sometimes a product comes out of nowhere and really catches you by surprise, especially from companies that don’t typically cross your desk. The FlipDot from NcStar was one such product. The FlipDot is a fascinating design from a company known for making very simple red dots. As the name implies the FlipDot is a red dot sight that […]

DoubleStar10B Bat Rifle: Graham Baates Video

DoubleStar10B Bat Rifle: Graham Baates Video

DoubleStar has been stealthily crafting some incredible rifles.  Their Midnight Dragon not only looks cool, but has given us the best ten-shot grouping we’ve ever accomplished when mixed with Nosler ammunition.  Aside from accuracy and build quality, part of what sets DoubleStar rifles apart is aesthetics. Looks may not be the officially important, but I […]

The Comfort Cling Holster: A Clip Less Wonder?

Reviewing holsters is always fun, and I really love being proven wrong when I see an idea I think is a failure. One such idea I thought was a bit too far was the Comfort Cling Holster from Clinger Holsters. I like the No Print Wonder V2, so I figured I could give them a […]

Shots Fired! Llama MicroMax ~ VIDEO

Shots Fired! Llama MicroMax ~ VIDEO

The Llama MicroMax is a 1911ish pistol scaled down for a different Bronwing cartidge, the .380acp.  We first took a look at this compact firearms in an earlier article.  Like most guns chambered in .380acp the Micromax is blowback-operated which requires a careful balance of slide weight, spring rate, and calculation of the expected energy […]

Trigger Slap Drill for Better Trigger Control

Trigger Slap Drill for Better Trigger Control

I just ran into a video again from a couple of well known instructors who are great shooters.  They that claimed that you shouldn’t practice a slow, deliberate trigger press because you don’t have time for that in a gunfight. It was one of those times when I hung my head and shook it in […]

Walther’s Smallest 5″: PPQ .22LR

Many of us learned to shoot with rifles and pistols chambered in .22lr.  Personally I had nearly forgotten the caliber when ammunition got scarce and I sought bigger booms.  Ammunition has returned to shelves and one simple truth remains; .22lr is an excellent training caliber.  Walther Arms understand this and offers a 5″ PPQ in […]
