Strike Industries Dual Fold Stabilizing Brace - With the ATF’s pistol brace rule being vacated by the Federal District Court in June, it’s looking like pistol braces are here to stay. It’s a good thing too because I’ve been working with the Strike Industries Dual Fold Stabilizer brace, and I’m kind of partial to keeping it. I first saw these at the […]- Infinite Defense: Self-Healing Infinity Target Review - In the world of shooting targets there’s no shortage of options. Paper targets are great for zeroing, with some offering a little reactivity as well. Steel targets are fantastic for shooter response, but mostly gives hit/miss response with little chance for after action diagnosis and can be a safety hazard at short range. Infinite Defense […]
- Gear Review: Bushnell RXM-300 Reflex Sight - Bushnell has been making solid, affordable optics rugged enough for hunters for generations. When I saw their new RXM-300 come out earlier this year I suspected it might just fill the niche I was looking to fill for a recent build.

- Gear Review : Streamlight TLR-7 HL-X - Streamlight seems to be all in on the TLR-7 design. They took the market by storm a few years ago with a compact 500-lumen light and have built the basic TLR-7 head into an entire series of lights. The TLR-7 head occupies the TLR-8, the TLR-9, the TL RM1, and the TLR RM 2. Streamlight […]
- Mantis BlackbeardX: The Pinnacle AR Dryfire System - I’m a huge fan of dry firing at home. It creates lots of good habits without the interference of recoil, which often leads to anticipation, flinching, heeling and failing to stay focused on your front sight. When dry firing, you know each time if you jerked the trigger or if you did it right. Several […]

- Mission First Tactical Custom AR-15 Mags - It was back at SHOT Show in early 2020 when I hit the Mission First Tactical (MFT) booth and spied a few distinctive AR-15 mags on display.
