Don’t look at me like that. Yes, it’s perfectly legal to build your own suppressor. Following the same process as you would to make a registered and legal short barreled rifle (SBR) or short barreled shotgun (SBS), you can build a device that will make your [Read More…]

When James’ video about suppressed MPXs not having blowback was posted I watched it and immediately emailed him that I personally have experienced a suppressed SIG MPX violently spit back in my face. Why and how does this happen? As far as I can tell, it happens [Read More…]

Background I do not have a history with bolt action precision rifles. My only real experience was with a beat up Mosin Nagant, and I was lucky to fire five to six rounds in a range trip before having to have my shoulder dislocation reduced. Fast forward to a couple of [Read More…]

Few rifle designs make me stop in my tracks. The JARD J67 was one of them. Browsing through Google looking to build my own pistol caliber carbine (and sick of all the AR variants), a lone photo grabbed my attention screeching for attention. Having been struggling [Read More…]
57Center makes the AR57. It is an upper receiver for your AR lower to shoot 5.7x28mm ammo. The only other guns that shoot this ammo is the FNH P90 and their handgun the Five Seven pistol. I got this pistol/SBR upper with a 6″ barrel. 57Center offers their uppers [Read More…]

I was sent this bedside holster for review from BeTacticalgear.com. It is not something I would normally look for nor purchase for myself but I decided to keep an open mind. Upon further research, this holster is made by Explorer. You can check them out at [Read More…]
After seeing Tim Harmsen’s video, I had an impulse to get this optic mount and see how it runs on the new Sub2000 Gen 2. I called my local gun shop and they had a Kel-Tec Sub2K Gen 2 in 9mm Glock Mag for $500. I ran over and picked it up on June 6. […] [Read More…]
The Steyr M9A1 is “the other” striker fired, polymer pistol from Austria. This lesser known handgun is an often overlooked offering on the market, and by popular request we are going to give it a nice review here on TFBTV.
In all likelihood we’ve all owned gun belts of various materials and styles. Chances are, like myself, you did a good bit of looking to find one that worked well for you. There surely are a lot of belts to choose from with some good belts and others gun belts in [Read More…]
Put me solidly in the “shoot through the can” group of suppressed pistol shooters. A group that swears they are just as accurate with standard-height sights even with an obscured sight picture. And it’s true, it’s perfectly doable – [Read More…]
Yes, I am a gun writer – or an outdoor writer, to use the proper term. If you assume this means I read quite a bit, you’d be right, but not every gun writer out there is also a reader. For me, reading is paramount. The only thing capable of fighting my [Read More…]

Premise I am a huge supporter of the concept of dry fire training, and have been for quite a while. Putting it into daily practice is another thing. And I have always wondered if there is actually measurable training value in it. The biggest mental hangups I have with [Read More…]
