Thanks for joining us on TFB’s Photo Of The Day, where we’re not above showing you our mistakes, whether they will buff out or not. In today’s edition, you’re looking at a recent mishap where I was more focused on looking through my optic than I [Read More…]
Welcome to TFB Weekly Web Deals 37. With the start of the new year, I had a little bit of precious downtime to take care of some administrative tasks with my gun gear. This meant cleaning out my range bag. The range bag I personally use the most is a 5.11’s Range [Read More…]
Welcome to TFB Weekly Amazon Deals 27. This week I wanted to talk to you guys about being prepared at the range. For some of you guys who have your own land or private shooting range this may be a bit of a non-issue, but for many of us who either have to drive dozens [Read More…]
When packing for the range, it can oftentimes become a real pain trying to fit all your gear into one or two bags when you have to take out multiple guns for long term testing without packing everything but the kitchen sink. About six months ago I started looking for a [Read More…]
In an age where everything has to be “Tactical”, GPS gets to the point (although the company does have some “tactical” themed lines”). The company was founded by a Trap and Skeet shooter who simply needed a better way to carry range [Read More…]
Go Outdoors Products is a Chino, California-based gear company that focuses on the shooting accessories and gear that make range trips that much more enjoyable and hassle free. The company has been around for a little while now, and much of their line of products has [Read More…]
Hackett Equipment is now selling and shipping the Mini. The Mini is a smaller version of the company’s original range bag that I talked about in a previous article (here.) In addition to simply being a smaller carry system, the new Hackett Equipment Mini also has [Read More…]

I’ve never found any dedicated range bags that seem to really address my needs. All of the ones I’ve tried seem to be a variation on the gym bag style, and not offer a lot of additional functionality. Consequently, I wind up just using a large, heavy duty [Read More…]
Don’t get me wrong, I really enjoy the “range bags” that are just now a dime a dozen. The single-strap “standard pattern” (my label, not industry’s) has performed and will continue to perform well. Unfortunately, when loaded down for [Read More…]
For those who pack everything for the range including the kitchen sink comes what could be argued as a range “kitchen sink.” Battenfeld Technologies, Inc., a division of Smith and Wesson, has announced the release of their Tipton Transporter Range Vise. As [Read More…]
For many of us, getting some target practice more closely resembles a mass exodus of guns and gear than it does a simple trip to the local range. Even moreso when it comes to getting that target practice at a favored outdoor shooting spot, because then you’re even [Read More…]
