Rae Industries has made a bullet loader for the CZ-USA Scorpion Evo3 magazine. The single mag loader is ok. I was never a fan of these style of mag loaders. Like the ones that come with Glocks and Springfield XDs. They are so inferior to the Maglula Uplula [Read More…]

Rae Industries has a 3D Printed bracelet that holds 9mm bullets. The links are supposed to be inspired by tank treads. The bracelet can hold 14 rounds of 9mm. While cool, I am not sure if it is a good idea since some people have freaked out over teenagers wearing [Read More…]

Lasermax has come out with a new laser line called Spartan. I would link to it, but I can’t find the exact product on their website. They’ll be coming out for shipping in the next several months, Natchez Shooters Supply even has them up for order as soon as [Read More…]
I recently wrote a short post on Steel Will knives. These are quality knives at a very reasonable price. These knives are made in Italy. This new Cager series comes in a Tanto blade as well as a drop point. New York, NY- Steel Will Knives, a premium brand that produces [Read More…]

Strike has a history of making super affordable mods for your guns that really can dress it up and give it a different look than all of the other “black rifles” out there. When my editor approached me about doing a review for a new product they have, after he [Read More…]
On Saturday, I reported that the Bundeswehr has purchased 600 HK417/G27P rifles and 600 MG4 machine guns to replace/supplement G36 rifles on the front lines. The initial run of German language-articles, especially when translated, appeared to say that these purchases [Read More…]
It appears that TFB might have momentarily forgotten it has some exclusive access to my creative process, often being years ahead of the rest. But that’s OK, because I’m here now to share the next version of the POV project. Here we’ve taken the time [Read More…]
Below are some photos of my personal Remington 51, made between 1921 and 1923. It’s in remarkably good shape for a gun that’s over 90 years old, and is definitely the best condition Model 51 I’ve ever seen in person or in photographs (so, naturally, I [Read More…]
Sometimes, it seems like few gun designers are willing to throw caution to the wind and try something truly new, and that even fewer financiers are willing to help those few designers achieve their vision. The Gyrojet family of weapons is perhaps an excellent example of [Read More…]
My videographer/photographer friend Oleg Volk recently posted a video of the Origin 12 shotgun dumping 30 rounds in 8 seconds. It could have clearly been shot faster but the spacing was most likely intentional in order to show the cycling variation. Added to the fun is [Read More…]
Many people in the gun rights community have listened to Rev. Kenn Blanchard’s Black Man with a Gun podcast since 2007. Blanchard is now making a jump into traditional radio. Until corporate sponsorship can pay the bills, he has set up a GoFundMe page to [Read More…]

This guest post was written by Lindy Y. Let’s start this with full disclosure: I used to be one of those guys that mocked people for making “tacticool” AKs. The eternal debate of classical versus modernized seems to have pervaded the AK community to a greater [Read More…]
I’m mentioned it before, and I will mention it again, I am generally a fan of Strike Industries and the products they come out with. They definitely offer an affordable way to customize your rifle and give it a distinctive look. Well, they are now offering a [Read More…]
I love my GORUCK Firearms gear. A lot (don’t judge me). My only current issue with it is for 3-Gun. The Discreet Rifle Case is useless for the shotgun, and necessitates that I carry another bag. It would be nice to have a single carry solution. The [Read More…]

My friend John Saunders of Saunders Machine Works helped me out with a little project I had in mind to upgrade my CZ Scorpion Evo3. First I wanted to cut QD holes into my CZ Custom Shop buffer tube adapter. The blocky design allowed for plenty of material to support QD [Read More…]
All of us have filled out the 4473 form so many times that we could pretty much recite it and fill it out blind folded. But have you actually bothered to read the stuff after you sign and date 16 and 17? A co-worker was perusing the later section, that hardly anyone [Read More…]
Ronaldo Olive sent us these photos of an M1 Garand rifle confiscated by the Military Police of Rio de Janeiro State. It features a Sage International M1GALCS/PMRI stock (but with a different AR-15 stock and pistol grip). An EOTech scope is mounted on top. [Read More…]
