Yesterday a police officer asked me to find him an AR because it looked like the new president would not look favorably on the gun industry.  I checked with our distributors and there are NONE!  All makes and models are sold out. Quite obviously this has been fueld by panic buying as people think about the former Clinton Crime Bill.  So, if you have been waiting to buy, you may be waiting a little longer.  What this signals is that the industry...

My cousin is a big fan of a group of guys who train here in TN, called Tactical Response.  He has been to several of their classes, and recently let me preview their Fighting Rifle video. James Yeager, the owner of TR, goes into great detail to give the viewers a look inside his school and method of instruction.  The 3 DVD set covers everything from shooting positions, reloads, firing drills, and gear selection.  What new shooters may find most...

I was test firing the other day, and it reminded me how important magazines are for your semi-automatic weapons.  By the way, a clip is sometimes referred to as a magazine, but only by the uniformed.  Don’t make the same mistake that I did and call it a clip to a professional if you want to be taken seriously.  Anyway, back to the point of test firing.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqI91z3RV14&hl=en] This is some footage of the Army Marksmanship Unit Shooters (AMU) shooting in a 3 gun match. One of the shooters is Daniel Horner who you may have heard of from his civilian days as a shooter from the Tactical Shooting Academy. What you will notice is that these guys are awesome. It has come to our attention that this video was removed from youtube for a copyright violation. ...

We received word today from one of our customers that CMMG has discontinued their bargain bin AR program. We assume they are temporarily out, and we hope that they will bring it back when supplies are available again. This same customer also said that the Smyrna, TN gun show didn’t have much in the way of AR’s available, and the ones that were there were going for more than they were a few months ago. So what’s the deal? It is...

I recently wrote a few posts lamenting the fact that the AR really doesn’t have a good bargain option. Well, the other day a customer of mine asked me if I had ever heard of CMMG. I confessed that I had not, but he quickly got my attention by saying they were offering a used AR for $570 plus $15 shipping. These guns are L/E trade ins, and advertised as guns that won’t win any beauty contests so I was interested to see them. I...
