PMM Compensator Showdown – Single vs Dual Comp Breakdown

Over the last few years, my preferences have changed from Glock’s modularity to the P320 and its overall options for customization. Last week, I looked at the new RXP XCompact and the overall evolution of a factory SIG 320, but what about the aftermarket community?  The Glock community had an explosion in aftermarket parts as it became more popular and it created a cycle of new customers purchasing Glocks to build them exactly how they wanted them. I purchased my first Glock 19 for this reason but the P320 is different.

Concealed Carry Corner: Ways to Practice Shooting From Home

There is no denying, the last few weeks have been a little odd around the world. Normal daily practices like going out to dinner or hitting the range on a free day, have completely stopped. The number one complaint with shooters in my area is the lack of open ranges. Here in Michigan, most of the public ranges and indoor ranges have been shut down for public safety, so it really is difficult to find an accessible place to shoot if you don’t have private land.

Concealed Carry Corner: Top 4 Things Worth Paying Extra For Carrying Concealed

Throughout the years, I have tried a fair number of products and really wish I wouldn’t have spent money on certain items. I think we all have a junk shelf in our gun room with old holsters or parts we thought would be a great addition to a concealed carry loadout, but ended up being a letdown. After carrying a concealed handgun for a while, it becomes clear what’s important to spend money on and what’s better to go cheap. I was rummaging in my gun room and there were a few different categories that stood out to me. After looking through all the leftover gear, I decided to put together a list of the top 4 things it pays to spend extra on the first time. Keep in mind, this is for people who are beginning their journey in the concealed carry world, so let’s dive into it.

A Guide for Aluma Hyde II – How to Corrosion-Proof your Gun Parts

Modern corrosion proofing techniques have largely relegated paint coatings to hobbyists looking to customize the look of their firearm. I, on the other hand, seem to have the biology of a xenomorph, and by that, I mean that I have managed to corrode a couple of my gun slides as well as one of my recently purchased Shield Arms S15 magazines. Today I’ll provide you with a guide to corrosion proofing your gun parts with Aluma Hyde II as suggested by TFBTVs James Reeves.

L3Harris Delivers 3,000th STORM-SLX Precision Rangefinder to US Army

If you don’t know the distance to your target it will make it more difficult – if not impossible in some cases – to get your ballistics right, and hit where you want. Of course, you don’t always have to “hit” something. It can be good to know the distance to something without the need to destroy it sometimes.

TFB 6th Month Review: Haley Strategic SBR Thorntail2 Light Mount

Over the last 6 months, I have been using and abusing the Haley Strategic SBR Thorntail2 mount with my Surefire Scout rifle light. I’ve owned this light for the last few years with the factory mount and overall I really like the light but hated the factory mount. Putting the Scout on something like my PWS MK116 Mod 2 created issues since it has a muzzle brake and would carbon the light up every magazine since it was so close to the muzzle. Putting the Scout on my short-barreled 308 only made the carbon and abuse even worse. I have used the original Thorntail on my 10.5 AR pistol for the last year and a half so I figured I would give the new one a shot. Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty of this low profile light mount.

Strike Industries MILLER COMP Slimline Muzzle Device

Although it looks similar to their  JCOMP, the new compensator has an external diameter of .745″ which makes it a little thinner than the JCOMP (.870″) yet according to Strike Industries is “engineered to mitigate recoil in the same manner as the SI JCOMP”. Let’s see why have they trimmed down the JCOMP design.

SILENCER SATURDAY #117: Quiet In The Time Of Corona – Defensive Suppressors

Good afternoon everyone and welcome back to another edition of TFB’s Silencer Saturday, brought to you by our friends at Yankee Hill Machine, manufacturers of the Turbo K and Resonator K suppressors. With everything going on in the world at the moment, it seems odd to be talking about one of the firearm industry’s seemingly elite class of accessories – suppressors. But what myself and others have been preaching for years is more evident now than ever before: suppressors are important tools that preserve situational awareness, aid in concealment from threats, reduces felt recoil and of course can prevent permanent hearing damage when used correctly. So let’s talk about defensive suppressors for defensive guns and how new shooters can benefit from joining team silencer.
