Gear Review: Sticky Holsters
Like RF's search for a marriageable Sabra, the quest for the perfect holster never seems to end. Because it doesn't. Even if you're the proverbial man with one gun (causing wariness amongst the wary) you need...
Red Dot Or DMR Scope? Bushnell’s SMRS Asks “Why Not Both?”
Badass military operators, 3-Gun competitors and Texas hog hunters have something in common: they don't know if their next target is going to angling in from ten yards or standing still at 250. Bushnell's...
Gear Review: Ares Armor Effin A Tuneable Compensator

Gear Review: Apex Tactical SD Spring Kit
There are two (gunny) things I hate: low combs on rifle stocks, and crappy triggers. And readers, the Smith SD9 VE trigger ain't nothin' to write home about. Coming in around 8 – 8.5...

Glossy Gun Mag Reviews: Reading Between the Lines
So this week, the November issue of Guns & Ammo arrived on my doorstep. The cover photo was of SIG's Adaptive Carbine Platform (ACP). Given the fact that I reviewed it back in August,...
