In this industry more than many others, customer service often comes second. With the breakneck pace to develop and release new products, firearms companies often put non-revenue generating customer service at the bottom of the list for funding and support. There are [Read More…]
Those who have been following my weapons choices for competition will likely remember that I am an avid fan of the Beretta 1301. Previously, they sent me a “tactical” model for review, which I liked so much that I immediately sold my Mossberg 590 (shout out [Read More…]
