AZIAK Equipment Ultralight Bino Clamp Tripod Adapter Review
I'm always looking for a better mousetrap. So far, the AZIAK Equipment bino clamp is the best lightweight bino/tripod adapter I've seen for hunting and lightweight applications where saving every ounce of weight matters.

Hands-On with the Primos Gen 3 Trigger Sticks
I don't shoot hogs from a blind here in Texas so I often find myself shooting from strange angles or on uneven terrain. Last year I did a review of the BogPod DeathGrip carbon fiber tripod and while it provided excellent stability.... its 7.5 pound weight made it cumbersome to pack up and carry across different pastures thru the night. I wanted to explore how much of a tradeoff I'm willing to make between stability and maneuverability.

Hog Hunting with the Sharps Rifle Co. 25×45 in an AR-15
I’d never heard of the 25 Sharps until I walked across the aisle at SHOT one year to the little booth occupied by the Sharps Rifle Company.

An Optics-Ready Hunter: The Devil Dog Arms 5 Tactical 1911 in 10MM AUTO
Earlier this year, Devil Dog Arms (DDA) announced that its 1911’s were available in optics-ready versions, and I immediately asked for their 5 Tactical model in 10MM, specifically cut for the Trijicon SRO optic. I’d used and reviewed DDA’s 1911’s in the past and they were first-rate—accurate, reliable, and solid. But I had yet to use one of their 10MM models.

The Reality of Chronic Wasting Disease
Our limited understanding of the history of Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) only goes back to the 1960’s in Colorado where a captive deer at a research facility became the first animal where the disease was detected. Read that sentence again.

The West Texas Proving Grounds: Trijicon’s New Thermal Optics and Missing on Tom Turkeys
That was one of the furthest shots I’ve even made with a thermal optic, at night, on a hog. My guide and fellow hunters were cheering my shot, and I certainly felt good about it. But I also knew the REAP-IR made the shot possible.

Go Bow-Mounted For Turkey
I love a good ground blind set for springtime toms. A semi-brushed-in hub-style blind paired with some realistic turkey fakes will create some solid in-your-face action. However, being cloaked in ninja gear huddled in a blind's back corner while you work a bird with seductive hen talk isn't the only way to skewer a spring longbeard.

Simple Gourmet: Peak Refuel Backcountry Meals
I'm all for making food from scratch, and this column is normally all about crafting tasty meals from the animals you kill. But when you're planning to add the challenges of backpacking on top of the challenges of hunting, I think you should keep it simple.

You may remember the 12 gauge Diablo pistol that was all the rage in 2020. Well this is its big brother. It has a three finger grip, a slightly different grip angle, and an 8" barrel. No FFL required! And it's howitzer of a handgun.

Primary Arms SLx MicroPrism
olute bargain at $249, and I recommend you grab one while the grabbing is good. This is a great value optic and given the supply chain so far this year, probably going to be in short supply. You can also look forward to some long-term durability testing on mine over the next year because I’m not sending it back. And that is the strongest endorsement I know how to give.

Franklin Armory’s Binary 10/22 Trigger RIPS (With NEW Trigger Housing)
I was more excited about the 22-C1 trigger for the 10/22 (and compatibles) than any other. Why? Because ammo is freaking expensive. Slinging lead is fun, but those 30-round .223 Rem. magazines add up quick. With the 22-C1, you can have the fun of super-fast semi-automatic fire without setting fire to your wallet. You may not win any wars with a 10/22, but it’s one of the best range toys I’ve ever had.

Midwest Industries 10.5” M-LOK Night Fighter Rail
Midwest Industries recently announced their Night Fighter M-Lok rail which is geared toward Night Vision shooters. This rail is designed to be more rigid to reduce lasers' point-of-impact shifts. By bulking up and keeping more 6061 aluminum in this rail compared to some of their previous options, the Night Fighter looks promising. Having a history of providing great products at affordable prices, I was immediately very interested in this new option.
