Work Sharp Combo Knife Sharpener: A cut above the rest

Work Sharp Combo Knife Sharpener: A cut above the rest

While a large and growing collection of knives is definitely not a complaint, sharpening them is. I used to not have this problem since I didn’t own many knives at all, but that has recently changed. Now that I have a hefty and proud collection, I find that it can be a real chore to keep a fine edge […]

Reloaded: The Grand Power K-100 Pistol

Reloaded: The Grand Power K-100 Pistol

Grand Power has been called the best pistol you’ve never heard of.  As a fan of their guns that has been raving about them for years I take offense to that.  As you’ve seen in our article on the Q100 I have a small collection of Grand Power pistols and that’s for good reason, they’re awesome.  Recently […]

Ultralight AR15 version 2.0 | 2 pound upper (part 1)

Last year, I started Project Icarus: to design a very accurate, ultralight AR15 using off the shelf parts.  My goal was a sub-6lb rifle, with the suppressor and optic included in that weight and I wanted to keep the parts as durable as possible, so I shied away from the use of plastic receivers.  Since […]

Say goodbye to electronic pistol safes: Titan gun safe review

I had an electronic pistol box for quick access to my primary home defense pistol for almost two years. The day came when the batteries died and I went to grab the 9-volt battery to “jump-start” it.  It was at that point I discovered the pistol box was designed to revert to the default factory […]

MantisX firearms training system review

MantisX firearms training system review

Putting practice rounds down range can be an expensive endeavor if you do it regularly, although it is important. To the contrary, dry firing can be useful to an extent but without any results behind it there isn’t much to gain.  With the MantisX Firearms Training System, I’ve found the best of both worlds.  This […]

It’s easy to sink alot of hard earned cash into several belts until you find one that not only supports and conceals your firearm, but offers […]

Recylced Firefighter Small Truckie Pouch | A minimalist wire dopp pouch

We recently took a quick look at the small Truckie Pouch from Recylced Firefighter. After I had published the quick look I put my order in to get one to play around with. My initial thought was to use it as a minimalist toiletry bag (which I may still do), but I immediately saw it’s use for a […]
