  • Acog 6×48 horseshoe .308 w/TA75 review

    Acog 6×48 horseshoe .308 w/TA75 This is the big boy of Acogs designed for .308 military rifles and machine guns in mind; I could easily see this scope mounted on a minigun or a M60 machine gun. The reticule is designed for the 147 gr Nato ball. Here’s what Trijicon says; “The military’s need for…

    Staff Gun Review: Ruger SR22

      It was a good day in my world. I just got back in the door from a bit of informal plinking with the G/F’s son. We took off to Johnsons Sporting Goods in Adrian MI. to buy a new Ruger SR22. I wanted this thing the other day when I was in there but somebody put…

  • Young MFG chromed BCG (ar-15) review

    During a recent AR-15 build, I decided to try out a chromed bolt & carrier. The natural choice for this criteria was a unit from Young Manufacturing, since they are probably the most well-known chromed BCG maker in the industry. I ordered an in-stock unit from a retailer, choosing the standard chromed semi-auto BCG. I…

  • Atlasworxs DBM review

    I purchased this dbm recently for an upgrade on my remington AAC-SD rifle. This unit is available for remington short actions, and I believe they are working on rem long action and also DBM for other rifles as well. Atlasworxs is an Australia-based company. Pros: affordable, lightweight, uses AICS magazines, well constructed cons: did not…

  • Weaver 3-10×40 tactical (midway exclusive) review

    I purchased this for a long-range .223 semi-auto rifle, intending to both hunt and target shoot with it. Overall I am pleased with it. Pros: affordable, mil/mil, nice glass, good turrets Cons: 1″ tube, no illumination I really like this little scope, and even though it only has a 1″ tube it has a large…

  • Falcon 1.5-5×35 scope review

    I purchased this scope a few months ago for use on an AR-15 rifle. I wanted an optic that would be useful at close to medium range, since I intended to use this rifle for predator & pest/critter control. However, I do know some people who would want to go for a more professional way…

  • Burris Tac30 1-4×24 scope review

    I purchased this Burris scope a while back for a multi-purpose AR carbine. Mostly this was my “truck gun” in case I stumbled across a ‘yote or other pest while out in the boonies. I have mixed feelings about it, which is why I decided to review it here. Pros: 30mm tube, available in black…

  • Leupold Mark 4 Long Range Tactical M5 8.5-25x 50mm Illuminated review

    This is the best scope that I own. It has good features like: side paralax, 1/10 mil external turrets, illuminated Leupold TMR reticle & 30mm tube. My only regrets with this scope is the illuminated reticle because I never use it, and the magnification range. When I purchased the scope, I was shooting a lot…

  • Marlin model 336 review

    I am reviewing my Marlin 336 30-30 rifle. I originally bought this used about 20 years ago as my first hunting rifle. This rifle is a great all-around hunting rifle for deer. It shoots accurate at 100 yards (I don’t like to shoot from farther than that without a scope), and is very reliable. This…
