Hello everyone and welcome back to TFB’s Silencer Saturday. Although I have shot the Q Honey Badger chambered in 300 Blackout every day and almost every night for the past week, I thought I’d give you all a break from my new romance with thirty cal kurz (band [Read More…]
Third Installment of Build of the Week was contributed by Tony R. A pretty clean and straightforward 2-stamp build, with good component choices (IMO, that is). I don’t have any experience with Holosun, and personally am not a fan of top mounted lights, but [Read More…]
You have to hand it to Ruger – over the past few years the Newport, New Hampshire headquartered firearms manufacturer has transformed their image from “bolt action and rimfire” to “backpack-ready and NFA” (raise your hand if you predicted that Ruger would [Read More…]
When I saw the list of manufacturers attending Big 3 East Media Event, I did not know who Stern Defense was. I haven’t heard of them. I did a quick Google search and what I saw piqued my interest. They make an AR Glock Mag Adapter. We have seen Torkmag and ATI [Read More…]
If you’re looking for something to give your AR a more traditional, classic look then Black Wood USA might have you covered. The Washington-based company offer premium wooden furniture for the AR-15. The veteran owned and operated custom parts maker offers a [Read More…]
The New Year is here, and for those of you behind enemy lines in the great state of California, that means you’ll need to either register your scary “AssaultRifle-15” or modify them to be compliant with the new regulations. CompMag is here to help. There have [Read More…]
There are a myriad of muzzle brakes out on the market, we’ve written about many of them but I’m sure there’s many more we’ve missed over the years. Some of them are pretty basic two or three chamber designs and some are more elaborate with [Read More…]
The dramatic rise in number of firearms being purchased by women across the country today is undisputable. The message is clear: Women (myself included) want to shoot. We want to arm ourselves for hunting, competition, home defense, and even just plinking! However, a [Read More…]
Not tired of California compliant product post yet? I hope not because here’s another product for those stuck behind enemy lines in the Golden State, this time it’s from B&E3D LLC and it’s called the LedgeGrip. Starting in 2018 Californians have to [Read More…]
It is easy for those of us who live in states without “assault weapon” ban (or worse) restrictions to thumb our nose at shooters in California, New York and New Jersey. Some of the compliant builds I have seen would make any respectable shooter want to cry. [Read More…]
SHOT 2017 has come and gone. Hopefully we did our duty in providing the best coverage we could put together to you, our readership. I certainly had an exhausting show, staying up many late nights, even unto first light, hustling USBs over to fellow writers to get [Read More…]
With a little bit of ridiculousness thrown in, Strike Industries put a SureFire 60rd magazine on to this SBR. They should have gone for gold and put a drum or 100rd SureFire mag on it. Oh and they added a DI Optical DCL-120 optic onto it. If its good enough for a 50 cal [Read More…]
Heckler & Koch MP5 is probably the most popular post-WW2 submachine gun design of the world. It is compact, reliable and lightweight. It uses H&K’s roller locked design, which proved to be a successful concept judging from the number of countries [Read More…]
Ok, there is is nothing earth-shattering buried within TFB’s seventh day of Christmas. But no matter how many magazines you have collected over the years, it’s always fun to be gifted more. Or, if you are looking for last minute or Secret Santa gifts for [Read More…]
Back in May we posted about the new Accuracy Grip from Mascon that is being distributed by our friends over at Strike Industries who were kind enough to send us one for review. The Accuracy Grip is designed to offer shooters an adjustable finger pad to help locate the [Read More…]
Found this image posted with no context. From just the image alone it seems the person that owned this AR pistol had the muzzle brake tucked back a bit under the handguard. Not sure how many rounds it took but the front end of the handguard broke from the muzzle brake. [Read More…]
Muzzle devices with blast shields/diverters were so last year, but it looks like companies are still coming out with their own versions. In the case of Strike Industries they’re collaborating with one of the most popular blast diverter brands around. Remember the [Read More…]
California is a pretty awesome state, they’ve got sunny weather, beaches, Disneyland, traffic, high housing cost and bullet buttons. What the hell is a bullet button you ask? It’s a device that makes all Californians safer and has prevented further gun crime [Read More…]
I was invited to attend the Superstition Mountain Mystery 3-Gun match in Mesa, Arizona at the request of KE Arms. KE Arms is a manufacturer, distributor, and retailer of all things firearms. This year at Superstition Mountain was a nexus of “new things” that [Read More…]

In this video, James gives a brief rundown of the Yugoslavian Zastava M92 SBR. This is one of James’ favorite SBRs for its moderate recoiling but hard-hitting SBR round, reliability, ability to fold the stock, and excellent parts availability and interchangeability. James goes over the [Read More…]
About a month ago I posted a install how-to and review of the Strike Industries Drop-In Free Float Mega Fins handguard. Some of the readers were curious about how well the Mega Fins dissipated heat, so while at the range I did an impromptu test. Admittedly it [Read More…]

I cannot imagine what John Moses Browning thought what accessories his ubiquitous design would spawn. But, I would imagine he would be patriotic and agree that Strike Industries 1911 Polymer Extreme Flat Pattern grips would be a worthy addition to the .45 handgun. [Read More…]
As an unashamed Android fanboy, I am pleased to see the first rugged “tactical” style case available for the Samsung Galaxy S5 phone. The Strike Industries case is available in black of Flat Dark Earth. It is made out of TPU, a polymer which holds up [Read More…]
The Strike Industries Battlecase is now available for the Samsung S4 Active (the rugged waterproof version of the Samsung S4). Just last week I was complaining on TFB about the lack of rugged “tactical” (for lack of a better word) cases for Android phones. [Read More…]
Strike Industries have added a new compensator to their line of muzzle brakes. The SI CheckMate Compensator, named after its close resemblance to a castle chess piece, is a single baffle brake with an offset top port optimized for right handed shooters (lefties, this is [Read More…]
Strike Industries have just Facebook’ed a photo of their new patented picatinny ultra low profile sling attachment device. It can be mounted on a picatinny rail without getting in the way of anything above it. It could be, for example, mounted underneath a [Read More…]
The guys at Strike Industries have been experimenting with buffer springs. They emailed me asking if I knew why nobody sells progressive buffer springs for the AR-15. I actually have no idea why they are not made. A progressive spring is a spring that has a [Read More…]
Magpul’s iPhone cases are now avalible in Red, Light Blue, Clear, Gray, Dark Blue, Teal, and Yellow. The MSRP remains the same at $12.95. On a related note, I was on Strike Industries Facebook page yesterday, looking at their new muzzle brakes, and saw a post [Read More…]
