There is an internet typhoon of arguments and smug derision about the AR-15 and other assault “style” rifles like the Sig MCX used in Orlando. The latest stories indicate that many in the gay and lesbian communities are buying these very rifles in record numbers for self protection. Last Wednesday morning, West Hollywood California woke […]

With my newly finished AR-15 sporting a Geissele MkIII free floating modular forend, I became excited when I learned of the Brightshot Flashlight Mount from MHA Custom. What is so exciting and different about this flashlight mount you ask? […]
I consider myself critical, picky and hold a high standard when it comes to upgrading or attaching accessories to my AR-15s. The Z-360 Gen2 sling mount by Tactical Link is something I obtained to replace my Magpul ASAP end plate, and I am glad I did (more on why in a little bit). Here’s the […]
This week we feature the Maadi Helwan Brigadier. It is a pistol that anyone who deployed to Operation Iraqi Freedom has most likely seen. It’s an Egyptian copy of the Beretta M1951 semi automatic pistol, chambered in what could be the worlds most popular handgun caliber 9x19mm. These pistols were made primarily in Egypt and […]
