Griffin Armament M4SD II Muzzle Brake
I love keeping my barrel flat as I pump multiple rounds into the target, which is why I like muzzle brakes and compensators like the Griffin Armament M4SD II. Like everyone else on the Internet, I’ve run into the 5.56 vs. 7.62 debate. It gets even messier when you throw in my favorite caliber, the…

Budget Tactical Gear Setup

(the Marine Corps slang term) Pictured is some old deuce gear from way back before my time. My Grandfathers era. While it has changed the uses are still…

Rainier Arms RMC
A few months ago, I put a Rainier Arms XTC on a medium contoured 16-inch barrel and was very pleased with the results. For the longest time, I thought that the decreased recoil and minimal muzzle rise, when compared to the standard A2, was mostly due to the 7 ounces of extra barrel weight. How…

Elzetta ZSM Flashlight Mount
Recently, Elzetta Design sent me their flashlight mount for tactical shotguns. Installation was ridiculously easy. The mount is designed for 12 gauge barrels, but spacers are included if you want to mount the light on a 20 gauge weapon. The mount is simple, robust and made of glass-filled polymer. It attaches easily to any tube-fed shotgun and the required hex…

Staff Review: Get a Grip!

Impossible, because a multitude of different companies are continually coming out with new accessories. This leads to a plethora of choices for the consumer.

TangoDown BG-17 Battlegirp
I’ve never been a fan of the standard A2 grip on the AR-15. I find it’s too thin and encourages placement of the second joint of the index finger onto the trigger, which can lead to poor shooting habits. For this reason, I’ve been running a Magpul MIAD grip for a while.

New Frontier Armory – LW15: Lightweight Polymer Lowers
One of the key benefits of polymers is that they retain their shape and size better in extreme cold and yes, heat (unless you are the human torch, why do you care that your Glock would melt if cooked at 450 degrees?), and they also spring back to their original shape after bending or twisting…
