    Matech BUIS Restoration/Refurbish

    I got this very well used and roughed up Matech BUIS from a seller on ebay for $29, shipping included. It looked worse in the pictures than it did upon arrival, so refurbishing it didn't end up being as in depth as I was anticipating. It was a very worthwhile project because the sight ended up...

    Huntertown Arms Guardian 22 Suppressor

    This silencer is quiet. How quiet? I've shot pellet guns that were just as loud, if not louder. On a semi-auto, it's great. On a bolt action you hear the firing pin getting struck, a puff, and the impact of the bullet in the ground. This was just some shooting off the back porch in a rural area...

    Pearce Glock Mag Extensions

    I love my glock 17, but I HATE how the magazines load that odd number of rounds that leaves leftovers in the box afterwards. I searched amazon.com to see if anything came up, and lo and behold, Pearce grips came up. Though that last round is quite a pain to load, I am VERY pleased with the...

    How to Fix a 40rnd AR Mag that Sucks

    I know it's a little long, but doing a fix like this requires dealing with a few variables that take time to test out. This Franken-AR 40rnd magazine is taking two magazines that, individually, suck outright, and turns them into a single magazine that actually kicks ass. Sure, you could save...

    I always love going to my favorite LGS

    So when I went by to pick up my Christmas gift at my favorite FFL, I asked one of the owners, Steve, if we could go in the back and show me what projects they've got going on back in the lab. All cool stuff, and never fails to disappoint. He's become quite the kydex artist and, as always, the...

    Cheap Pistol Laser

    I was looking for an 'affordable' laser to put on my pistol. Looking at the design of this particular model (which allows a light to be mounted underneath it), it was ergonomically appealing and a cheap find on Amazon. Unfortunately, the mechanics of the design make it so that there is no way it...

    PSA 8620 BCG: Initial Impressions and Take Down

    I saw a great deal on Palmetto State Armory's web page ($97 delivered) and jumped on it for this. Seeing how it's my first one, I wanted to take it down and see how the bolt works. Looks like a great quality component. VIDEO LINK

    How to Fix Mags that Suck Part 3: Pro-Mag AR Mags

    Lets face it, there are a lot of magazines that suck out there. Some manufacturers who are notorious can actually make decent ones from time to time, but often we are left with a busted or non-functioning magazine with no customer support. The long lesson is spend the extra $3 for a good one...

    Catamount Fury Initial Impressions

    This review is done by a friend and work colleague of a brand new, off the shelf Catamount Fury from Century Arms. Initial observations are that it feels solid and not chunky or cheap. Trigger pull is delightful, yes, I said delightful. Keep an eye out for the full video! Looks like you can pick...

    P-Mag vs Pro Mag

    I wanted to take the most notable and one of the more notorious mag companies and compare the two products. I was not only amazed at the amount of similarities between the two magazines in regards to look and design, but I was also not exactly surprised at the result of fit, finish, and...

    Walking and Gunning with my SGWorks Kit

    I wanted to try out my camera mounts for my iphone and camcorder. So I set them up on the rails of my SGWorks kit, one facing downrange, the other back towards me. I used the youtube video editor, but if I used premiere or final cut, I could have picture in picture by synicing up the videos...

    Strike Industries M.I.T.C.H. Handguard and Rails - First Impressions

    This option from Strike Industries is what I would call a giant leap above your standard AR handguards. Not only is it extremely light, but it also offers an adjustable "tactical nub" (aka - an angled forward grip) and can come with optional full length aluminum rails. These handguards are...

    Tin Can Execution with Extreme Prejudice: Hi Point vs Walther P22

    I finally got a chance to get out to the range and practice my accuracy with pistols. I had with me my Glock 22/17, the infamous Hi Point .45 JHP, and the Walther P22. I decided to put the Hi Point up against the Walther, believing in good faith that the P22 would trounce the Hi Point. Boy was I...

    Rainier Arms Forged Upper Receiver - Initial Impressions

    This is a very high quality mil-spec forged upper offering from Rainier Arms. They are a local company, so having them in my state is a huge bonus for me. If you want to have a quality upper to base your build off of, this is definitely a solid option from a great company with a very good...

    Don't be 'that guy'.

    We, as gun owners, have a responsibility to take care of the public lands where we shoot. That means if you packed it in, pack it back out. There was a stark contrast to this pile of styrofoam as back at the line, someone had gone to great effort to collect a huge amount of trash to be taken...

    Ambidextrous AR Charging Handle on the Cheap

    I really liked the idea of an ambidextrous charging handle for my AR build, but most of the ones I was seeing for sale start at $45 before shipping. I found the charging handle and the do-it-yourself ambi-latch on amazon for $30 and it was a quick easy install. Take a second and check it out...

    Breaking Bad Second Amendment Interpretations

    I have spent a good deal of time debating fence setters and anti-gun folk as to the meaning of the words, grammar, and intent of the Second Amendment, often times I find both groups making the same mistakes, some more intentional than others. Some people honestly don't understand the details...

    Gunsmith's out of the box review of the E3 Arms Omega 15 Poly Lower

    I have been looking forward to starting a lightweight build for a long time. I had decided a while ago to go with a poly lower and got really interested when I saw the offering from E3 Arms. When I went to go pick mine up from my local FFL, I asked the shop gunsmith if he'd be willing to do a...
