While American kids are busy occupying their time trying to stack cups or solve Rubik’s cubes as fast as they can, these Russian students are competing in a competition. The goal? To disassemble or reassemble an AK. Just watch the kid at 3:00 min into the video. [Read More…]

EOTech has come out with a thermal viewer. MSRP is $3,499. I suppose that is affordable than others. But compared to the Flir Scout, the X320 is still more expensive. Find out more information over at Tactical-Life
Finally SureFire has made a E1D. In the past, flashlight users had to Lego together the components. Taking a E2D bezel and tail cap and putting them onto a single cell E1 body. Below are two iterations that I have made. But this requires buying two separate lights [Read More…]
So this picture was on social media. Shooting Illustrated posted this on their Facebook page and it looks like it was spotted at the NRA show. From the picture it looks like a modified Kel-Tec Shotgun. I am not really seeing the benefit to a double barreled pump [Read More…]
David Reeder, over at Recoil, reviews the Thrym Switchback. It is a ring that you slide onto your flashlight. Combat rings are not a new concept. SureFire put rings on their lights starting with the Combat designed Z series lights. SureFire developed the [Read More…]
Jerry Miculek is still fast. Like that is a surprise to anyone. But watch the super slo-mo on the reload. Watching Jerry’s steps broken down in slow motion is just awe inspiring. Seeing him let go of the rounds before they even enter the cylinder so he can get his [Read More…]
I love odd looking guns. And when I saw a Chiappa Rhino I wanted one. Then my friend told me about its predecessor, the Mateba Revolvers. Matebafan.com has some good information regarding the revolvers designed by Emilio Ghisoni. Here is a video of a .357 Unica 6 [Read More…]
MGI made an AR that is multi-caliber. So what, many other companies have a multi-caliber AR. Well this can switch from 9mm – 7.62x39mm – 556 within minutes and without any tools. Check out MGI for more info.
Art imitates life. All from an innocuous picture shown below, a few people have been debating what was on the end of the suppressor. Some surmised it was a re-purposed scope cover or a glass breaker. So my friend, Kris Kim in Korea, decided to run with the idea and made [Read More…]
Alcohol and firearms are not a good combination. But that only applies to drinking said alcohol and operating said firearms. Using a cannon, supplied by Captain Morgan, to shoot at some drinks is totally ok. The Slo Mo Guys video the cannon ball smashing thru a pyramid [Read More…]
These kids in Poland are using trashcans and oil drums either as a cannon or launching the drums in the air. Do not try this at home. It looks fun and dangerous all at the same time. Trash cannon. Oil drum launch.
Bob Campbell over at Shooter’s log gives a few pointers when looking for a gun safe. Check it out here.
Necessity is the mother of invention. Last year, when I was living in NY state, I figured out that I could use my KRISS Vector faster if I could release the magazine with my right hand. We were only allowed 10 rd magazines so reloading was crucial to action pistol [Read More…]
This guy shoots his Savage 110 BA out to 2,530 yards! Pretty impressive. That is 1.43 miles. It was posted on LiveLeak. For more information on the 110 BA check out Savage Arms. Not too shabby for a $2000 rifle.
Check out the Nemo Omen .300 WinMag AR. The music gets a bit obnoxious but it doesn’t detract from this amazing weapon. For more information head over to Nemo Arms.
Thanks to Pekka for sending this one over to us. The US Marines Black Sea Rotational Force is seen training in Finland. Training for cold urban combat. Interesting that they are using the RK-95 and not the standard issued M4.
Diamonhead USA has a set of folding BUIS. Sure that is nothing new but these pop out at a 45 degree angle. What’s the big deal? They just mount to your flat top and BAM! open up at a 45 degree angle. They retail for $298.00 and you can get them from the [Read More…]
Ok, so it isn’t the most practical shotgun shell reload but it is a nifty trick. It kind of reminded me of the “someone give me a bullet” scene from The Quick and the Dead. Where Russle Crowe’s character is out of bullets and has a kid toss him a [Read More…]
This is nothing new, but for those who don’t know, Cowboy Action is a competition similar to 3gun except they use old styled firearms. They use a revolver, shotgun and rifle. However they are all manually operated. Single action revolvers are used for the pistols. [Read More…]
We have seen some methods of storing shotguns within reach while in a bed. This one is rather clever. It drops from a hidden panel inside the headboard. The mechanism can be tuned using stiffer springs to prevent accidental activation. I would hate to be stretching as I [Read More…]
22Plinkster has done some interesting trick shots with .22LR. In this recent video, he shoots an egg from 100yds off hand, open sights with a 22LR tracer. One shot. I find this video amusing because just last week, two of my online friends set a challenge for all three [Read More…]
This is an interesting video. I don’t know this group. Some of the things they do seem a bit extreme. There are some intriguing aspects that I find could be fun to try. Like the moving targets on poles. It presents a somewhat more dynamic aspect to one’s [Read More…]
Thanks to Eric for sending this to us. He had Mike of Mike’s Custom Woodwork build him a cabinet for his guns. Here is a video of how it works. Check out Mike’s youtube channel for some of his other gun hiding woodwork
Thanks to Mr. Revolverguy for sending this to us. He reviews Colt’s new Wiley Clapp Lightweight Commander Talo exclusive. He sums it up with “Everything you need, with nothing you don’t.” Check out his review over at Day at the Range.
Sig Sauer submitted its new Muzzle Brake to ATF for approval last year. Hoping they would receive a ruling similar to the recent news on their Sig Arm Brace. Unfortunately ATF has deemed it a suppressor and requires a Form 1 or 4. Sig intends on fighting this. I wish [Read More…]
Hope this brings a smile to your day. A guy unloading and dual wielding Barrett .50 Cal rifles. He should be wearing eye protection though. Still fun to watch and I am sure even more fun to shoot.
As a fan of pretty much anything that shoots a projectile, I found this interesting. A Nerf Sentry gun is nothing new. Ever since Hasbro came out with the N-Strike Vulcan EBF-25 Nerf fans and college students have been mounting them onto computer controlled gimbles. The [Read More…]
With all the talk about 80% AR lowers, did you know that there are 80% 1911 lowers?Ares Armor sells them, but they are not the only game in town. Tactical Machining makes a railed 1911 frame. Only a $10 difference between 80% and 100%. The difference is the slide rails, [Read More…]
