Shooting a Mapleseed
I recently had the chance to attend 2 full Mapleseed events and wanted to write a bit about what I saw. Compared to some of the other shooting clinics or courses I’ve been to, Mapleseed was: Inexpensive. For a full day of training, it was a fraction of what I’ve paid for other shooting courses.…

GSG 1911-22 Review
The GSG 1911-22 (Same as the SIG branded 1911-22) is an inexpensive 22LR pistol that mimicks the size, dimensions, and is even compatible with some 1911 parts.

Oryx Chassis Review
When I was first building out this 10/22, I had my eye on the Oryx but ended up buying a Magpul X22 Hunter stock just for cost reasons (review here). The Oryx Sportsman Rifle Chassis is well suited for getting started in precision shooting, like PRS for centerfire, or precision 22LR shooting competitions like ORPS…

Freedom Ordnance FX-9 Review
The Freedom Ordnance FX-9 is a semi-automatic, Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC) made in the US. When sold for the US market, they’re frequently set up as a pistol or as a 16″ PCC, but for Canada they’re brought in with a Canada-specific 18.6″ barrel. As they’re not AR receiver compatible, these longer barrel versions can…

Everything you wanted to know about the Norinco NP22 & NP34
The Norinco NP22 and NP34 are Chinese-made Sig P226 and P228 (respectively) clones. But instead of costing $1000, they cost around $300. You can’t expect them to be as nice as a SIG for that price but are they any good at all? Long story short: they’re rough out of the box (and very oily)…

Mantis Laser Academy Review
The Mantis Laser Academy is an add-on for dry fire that helps time your shots better than just using a timer with a PAR beep, it provides accuracy feedback, and it’s kind of fun to duel against someone else. I asked Mantis to send me one of these for review so I could dry fire…

RangeMaxx 3 Gun Case Review
Packing up for 3 gun can be a chore with all the gear and guns required. I usually use an older Flambeau double rifle case to squeeze all my guns in, but when I saw that Cabela’s was selling the RangeMaxx Tactical 3-gun case on sale, I had to see if it’d protect the guns…
