As a gun writer, a firearms instructor, and concealed carrier it’s fair to say I have a ton of experience with holsters. I have dozens of them–boxes full of them. Today I want to dive in and discuss the idea of the best concealed carry holster. I couldn’t choose just one though, so here are […]

The Ruger 10/22 Review: An American Classic
On my top 7 22 Rifles list, my number one choice was the humble Ruger 10/22. I listed a few reasons there, but let’s reevaluate why this rifle is so fantastic. The Ruger 10/22 is on equal grounds with guns like the AR-15 and the Glock series of handguns. It’s the definitive gun of it’s […]
The KPOS Scout and G2- Whats the Difference?
Some time ago I reviewed the KPOS G2 for Down Range Daily. To me, it was a fun, well made and impressive way to turn a Glock into a modern tactical carbine. I’ve handled some carbine conversion kits and found the KPOS G2 to be my favorite overall. In 2018, FAB Defense decided to tweak […]

Glock 19 Tritium XS F8 Night Sights Review
XS F8 Night Sights Review As a longtime concealed carry practitioner and instructor for the past several years, I’ve seen lots of gadgets on guns. Most, in my estimation and in the eventual admission of the people who spent hard-earned money on them, are a waste of said money at the least. At worst, these […]
Rock Island 22 TCM Pistol Review (Convertible 9mm 1911)
Rock Island 22 TCM / 9mm 1911 Pistol I’m not what you’d call a 1911 super-fan. Nor am I what you’d call a Glock fan. If I had to put a finger on where I stand, it’d be somewhere in the middle. Though, I admittedly don’t own a Glock at the moment. There’s no special […]
