When I first had a quick look at the MBX “Fang” I thought it was a monopod, like the Accu-Shot, and thought why didn’t they make it adjustable? How do I go prone with this on my rifle? I continued reading and while I still have a lot of doubts as if my [Read More…]
Just after my review of the The XMag Coupler from Germany I discovered this solution from MBX Extreme which I think will be of interest. The system will add both capacity and the possibility to couple a Magpul PMAG to another. There is also a “wing” to lift [Read More…]

I love me some Rob Ski. Outside personifying the spirit of Americanism by immigrating and serving in the military, he’s a stand-up no-BS kind of content creator. I mean, just for the fun of it (and on his own dime) he has been putting 5,000 rounds through guns [Read More…]

Back in April of 2015, the Magpul Hunter X-22 Stock for the 10/22 was introduced to the shooting community and shooters loved what it had to offer. The stock had the potential to be a very good option for just about any 10/22 build. Thankfully Brownells sent us a flat [Read More…]
