In 2017, Air Armor Tech released its innovative line of inflatable rifle cases. These offer the same level of protection as a hard case, but in a lightweight package that rolls up into a sleeping-bag-sized package. I’ve had this T&E sample for 18 months, which is longer than we usually take to test products, but […]
Optics Review: SIG SAUER TANGO6 5-30x56mm Rifle Scope From the moment I first picked up the Tango6 5-30x56mm from SIG Optic’s Tualatin, Oregon headquarters, I knew I was going to like this scope. That was well over a year ago. I’ve now managed to put around 2,500 rounds of 6.5 Creedmoor downrange with the TANGO6 riding […]
Thanks the rise of competitive shooting leagues such as PRS and movies such as American Sniper, precision rifles have been gaining popularity Does the American Rifle Company’s innovative “Mausingfield” action meet the market demand for an improved Mauser-style receiver maximized for long-range accuracy? . . . I discovered the Mausingfield action at SHOT Show 2016, when I meet Theodore […]
Whether it’s an accent on a BMW M car, the barrel of a Dunhill foundation pen, or a precision rifle barrel, I love me some carbon fiber. When used right, carbon fiber imparts strength, light weight and looks good while doing it. So when I first saw the Christensen Arms Tactical Force Multiplier (“TFM”) at […]
Mec-Gar is undoubtedly my favorite aftermarket pistol magazine maker. Among others, I run them in my Sigs P-229s, Beretta 92s and especially on my CZ-75, because they’re high quality and are typically cheaper than OEM mags. So when Mec-Gar said they needed some beta testers to air out their new 10-round commie state-compliant mags for […]
One of my favorite shooting sports is pest control using rimfire rifles. Farmers’ fields get overrun with problematic alfalfa-gobbling ground squirrels, and so we have to do our part to help control the population. Over the years, my friends and clients have built many semi-custom varmint hunting rigs optimized for this task. For the most […]
Blaser Jagdwaffen GmbH is a German firearms manufacturer primarily known for manufacturing high-end shotguns and multi-caliber hunting rifles in the European tradition, including the well-regarded straight-pull R-8. In 1997, Blaser released a police sniper version of its now-discontinued R-93 action under the euphemistically benign name of “Long Range Sporter” (LSR). Blaser is a manufacturing firm […]
The concept of a lightweight blowback-operated pistol-caliber centerfire carbine for use in survival situations isn’t new. Feather Industries and Kel-Tec cracked that nut a long time ago. In 2012, TNW Firearms of Oregon released its own version: the 5.5 lb. Aero-Survival Rifle (“ASR”). Overview The TNW ASR is notable for its removable barrel and easily […]
During World War II, the Canadian firm John Inglis & Co. manufactured approximately 150,000+ samples of the iconic FN Browning Hi-Power pistol. When the last batch in active service was declared to be surplus by the British military in the early 1990s, many of these fine pistols made their way to American shores. While most […]
Since their introduction in 2013, Nightforce’s ATACR line of first focal plane scopes has been very well-received by the long range shooting community. These scopes provide the ruggedness of the NXS line while offering the advantages of a FFP reticle and a 34mm main tube. Even better, the price point is very reasonable compared to the […]
Nightforce was kind enough to invite TTAG to their first media/dealer product release event held recently at the CORE Shooting Solutions facility in Florida. In this two-day event, representatives from Nightforce teamed up with Accuracy International and Daniel Defense to allow members of the media and select dealers to get some first-hand shooting experience with […]
M+M Industries hit the scene a few years ago importing M10 (AKM pattern) rifles from the Cujir factory in Romania. Combining a good price point and high quality, the M10 was well received. However, demand outpaced supply, and M+M decided to manufacture its own rifle. But rather than just produce a traditional AKM design, M+M […]
