Optic Review: Meopta MeoPro 4.5-14x44mm HTR Riflescope
The MeoPro series by Meopta includes riflescopes, binoculars and spotting scopes that are made in Meopta’s USA facility located in upstate New York. Being modest about it, Meopta uses the term “Assembled in the USA” instead because the lens and most of the components are still produced by Meopta’s main Czech Republic plant. To my […]

POTD: Surplus magazines used to build a road
The EU Gun Ban will most likely hit in 2017, with a ban on high capacity magazines. Politics is not the issue for discussion here, but the end result will be some very stupid gun laws the way it looks now. Firstly – how do you even define a magazine? I don’t know the background […]

Magpul Shipping PMAG 12 GL9 for Sub-Compact 9mm Glocks
I, and many others, love subcompact handguns for every day carry and self-defense. Their uber-small size allows them to be concealed when other weapons may risk printing or exposure. However, the Glock 26 has always been a bit of a problem for me, as I rationally or irrationally need my pinky finger on a gun. […]
