In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at TriggrCon 2022 talking with Barrett about their MRAD rifle, which is the civilian version of their modular Mk22 sniper rifle. The MRAD is pretty close if not identical to the Mk22, while Barrett also makes a “budget” version called the SMR or “single mission rifle”, which is a non-modular version with a fixed stock and barrel. Barrett gives us the rundown at TriggrCon today.

In this episode of TFBTV Show Time, James Reeves visits the guys at Crusader Arms during TriggrCon 2022 to discuss their Templar AR-180 clone rifle. It’s not a dead-on AR-180 clone, as it has some modernizations and improvements, but it also has a special legal twist to avoid legal classification as an AR rifle.

In this episode of TFBTV Show Time, James Reeves is talking to Kirk with Aero Precision, LLC about the new Lahar-30 suppressor. Even though this is a laser-welded, HUB-compatible, Inconel silencer, the Lahar-30 will start at just $649. Kirk walks us through the details and tells us why this is a great bang (or great shh?) for the buck.

In this episode of TFBTV’s TriggrCon 2022 coverage, James Reeves visits the guys at Trailblazer Arms to see the new Pivot carbine. According to Trailblazer, the Pivot is: “A semi-automatic 9mm Ultracompact Folding Rifle. Patented technology allows the Pivot™ Rifle to collapse in a unique way, maximizing portability when folded and function when unfolded – Rifle Reimagined“.

In this episode of TFBTV’s TriggrCon 2022 coverage, James Reeves interviews Rich Angstadt of Angstadt Arms about his newest creation, the Vanquish – an MP5SD-like integrally suppressed AR-9 carbine using a removable suppressor that has no baffles whatsoever – and it somehow sounds great.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves visits the gang at PWS to check out their BDE. [lol] The BDE is the first suppressor from PWS. It’s made from lightweight titanium alloy, using a modular design with four removable baffles, and an entrance chamber that’s serialized and compatible with various suppressor mounts (via HUB mounting). It has taper-threaded baffles that prevent backing off and carbon locking, and symmetrical baffle notches to allegedly improve accuracy. MSRP is $1,099.95

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at TriggrCon 2022 with Kirk of Aero Precision to talk about their NEW bolt action. The Aero Solus is going to be released by the end of 2022 in some form or another. While the price isn’t concrete yet, Aero is well known for having reasonably priced but high-quality AR-15s. James can tell you from his experience at TriggrCon with this rifle that it very well may take the precision rifle market by storm.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at Thunder Ranch with lead instructor, Jack Daniel, to discuss whether or not you really need a red dot on your gun. For the sake of argument, James (a recent red dot convert) adopts an anti-red dot stance, while Jack tells us why red dots on handguns are helpful, and gives viewers tips on how to maximize performance with a red dot. Enjoy this special from Thunder Ranch.

In this episode of TFBTV Show Time, @James Reeves is at the LORIST show with @DumDum Darko to discuss what are the best five handguns in Serbia – for the money. This is tricky because some handguns are much more expensive in Serbia than in the United States, so when buying a handgun, the value for your dollar (or dinar, or euro) is going to be much different than in the United States. European guns tend to be cheaper in the US and wait till you find out how much a Desert Eagle costs…

In this episode of TFBTV Show Time, James Reeves is at the LORIST gun show in Serbia talking to Nikola from Belom Ammunition about their new line of shotgun ammo coming to the United States, RedStar Ordnance. Belom promises that RedStar will be budget priced while still performing better than other 12 gauge ammo on the market. @DumDum Darko makes a special guest appearance in this episode.

In this episode of TFBTV, Hop compares three different red dots for micro compact pistols. The most popular handguns these days are micro compact double stacks like the SIG P365, the Glock 43X, the Taurus GX4, and the Springfield Armory Hellcat, among others, and they all use a smaller size of optics cut. Three optics that fit that mounting footprint are the Holosun EPS Carry, the Crimson Trace RAD Micro Pro, and the SIG-Sauer Romeo Zero Elite. Which one is the best? You have to watch to find out, duh.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at the LORIST 2022 Serbian Gun Show shopping for AR-15s with @DumDum Darko. Sure, your options are limited and EXPENSIVE, but you have choices from manufacturers like DanielDefense and Smith & Wesson Inc., as well as options that we don’t have in the United States. James and Darko peruse the guns (and a lot of rakija brandy) and talk about what options are out there for Serbs.

In this episode of TFBTV Show Time, James Reeves is at the Lorist Gun Show in Serbia checking out the newest sniper rifle from Zastava, the M12 “Black Spear.” The Black Spear is a .50 BMG sniper rifle that is more or less an updated version of Zastava’s previous M93 “Black Arrow” .50BMG sniper rifle. James gives you a preview of this new release before the full video drops on the TFBTV main channel.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves interviews 25-year LAPD ex-undercover vice officer, Jeremy Stafford (who is also an editor of Guns & Ammo Magazine) about what worked for him when he would EDC when he was an undercover vice cop for the Los Angeles Police Department. From guns to knives, to medical gear/IFAKs, Stafford covers it all and lets you know what works for him. His answers will surprise many of you.

In this episode of TFBTV, confirmed AR-15 bro James Reeves reviews the IWI Tavor X95 and gives you 6 ways the IWI Tavor is actually better than the standard AR-15/M16/M4 series of rifles. This is going to be a zesty one so make sure to check it out.

In this episode of TFBTV, Hop tries to get a read on the Springfield Armory Saint Victor in .308 Winchester. Springfield’s big bore AR is one of the lightest factory AR-10/LR-308 pattern rifles on the market, but some sacrifices had to be made to get it below 8 lbs. A strange combination of features makes it hard to tell what the Saint Victor .308 is best suited for. Hunting rifle? DMR? Or is it a throwback to the battle rifles of the Cold War period?

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves interviews Karl Brugger, the president of B&T, about the new B&T USW-P. The USW-P at first seems like little more than a modular, striker-fired, high-end CZ-75 clone, but as Karl reveals, this gun is much, much more than that. The USW-P has a number of features discussed in the video, but also manages to integrate into the USW-SF chassis system made by B&T to convert the gun into a 9mm carbine.

For this episode of TFBTV, Hop and Luke traveled to New Hampshire to check out the new MCX Spear LT at the new SIG Experience Center and range. The new lighter-weight version of the MCX incorporates features from both the M5 Spear NGSW rifle and the original MCX Virtus. It’s also available in a new caliber option… but I’ll let Phil Strader tell you about that.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at Zastava USA visiting with the Zastava team to discuss why AK-47 imports into the United States are absolutely terrible. Fortunately, Zastava has figured out a way to get by the hurdles presented by ridiculous U.S. laws, and the Serbian AK-47 manufacturer is glad to show the TFBTV team how they comply with the law while still producing an excellent AK, just like the AKs from the mother country.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at B&T in Switzerland interviewing Karl Brugger about the NEW KH9 Covert. The original KH9 is a Swiss version of the Italian SITES Spectre SMG, a straight blowback 9mm pistol caliber carbine. However, the KH9 Covert has a couple of tricks up its sleeve compared to the original. The KH9 Covert’s pistol grip and magazine well can be folded away in a 90° position, which means that the KH9 Covert’s already slim configuration can be easily stowed in an (included) messenger bag or possibly under a coat without raising the operator’s profile. The pistol grip and magazine well can be rapidly deployed. The KH9 Covert has a unique trigger system where the safety lever acts as a de-cocker for the internal hammer as the trigger is capable of double-action or single-action firing. The KH9 Covert has rails for optics and accessories and a tri-lug adapter on the barrel for use with a quick-attach suppressor. The KH9 features fully ambidextrous controls and the carbine accepts all APC9 or MP9 type polymer magazines.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves reviews the new FN Hi-Power, which has been completely overhauled for 2022. Yes, FN has re-engineered and re-released the legendary, original Hi-Power wonder nine pistol, thought by many to be one of the best 9mm handguns ever made. Even though the Hi-Power was released in 1935, this pistol remains a staple around the world and is still the official sidearm of many nations and armies. FN discontinued the original Hi-Power in 2018 citing a lack of interest in the civilian market, but 4 years later, FN released a completely new version of the pistol, with the same styling and traditional appearance of the original, but integrating more modern features and build quality. Is the new FN worth your attention? Check today’s video to find out.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves looks at the ultra-compact, cyberpunky TP380. The TP380 is a .380 ACP pistol/PCC/SMG introduced by Swiss B&T (Brugger & Thomet) almost 10 years ago. Initially earmarked for the South American civilian market, B&T never obtained an export license for the guns and they sat on B&T’s shelves in Thun. However, B&T is planning on introducing the subcompact .380 ACP as a pistol in the US market by the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023. James talks with Karl Brugger personally about the TP380 and gives you his first impressions.

In this episode of TFBTV, Hop reviews the Taurus GX4 again! The new GX4 XL model has a longer barrel and slide, mated to the same compact double stack frame as the original GX4. The longer slide and barrel means a longer sight radius and more muzzle velocity, but is it enough difference to make a difference? I dunno, ask Paul Harrel, my chronograph barely works as it is.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves visits B&T in Switzerland to see their take on the folding carbine, the B&T BWC (“Because We Can”). The BWC is a 9mm folding SMG/PCC that uses a SIG P320 fire control unit or “FCU” meaning that the BWC itself is not a firearm, but a frame or chassis. This means that this folding pistol chassis is unregulated – a mere accessory. A SIG P320 owner can buy this chassis like any other unregulated accessory because it does not come as a complete firearm. Once you purchase it, you need only insert a SIG P320 FCU and slide/barrel upper, and you have a complete folding carbine.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves tests the Turknelli, that is the Turkish-made Benelli M4 tactical shotgun clone. At around $400, these budget shotguns are almost exact replicas of the real Benelli M4, but at one-fifth of the price. They’ve become very popular and there are a number of importers bringing them into the country on the cheap. Do you get a bargain or do you get what you pay for? Check today’s video for details.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves reviews the new FN Five-seveN Mk3 MRD. At $1,449, this is the most expensive 5.7x28mm pistol on the market, but might it also be the best? James takes the new Five-seveN Mk3 MRD to the range and to the table to tell you if this plasticky-feeling high-tech super pistol is worth the spend.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves is at Zastava USA to discuss the new import of the Zastava M77 rifle. This .308 rifle is very similar to Zastava’s flagship M70 AK-type rifle and almost identical to the Zastava M90 .223 rifle, with a few differences other than the obvious caliber difference. Note that per the video, furniture that works with the M70 and M90 should also work with the M77. Zastava now offers three calibers of AK to the US civilian market, including 5.56/223, and of course 7.62×39. Check out this overview for a description of the features and accessories available for this new .308 AK.

In this episode of TFBTV, James Reeves reviews the Dead Air Sierra 5 and asks – is this the best deal going in suppressors for the AR-15 right now? Starting at just $699 for a suppressor, HUB compatible mounting device (KeyMo or Xeno), and a muzzle device, the Sierra 5 drives a hard bargain. James tests this new suppressor out with an SBR IWI Tavor X95 Micro, the new Smith & Wesson Volunteer M&P15, and even the FN P90 to see how it performs and to give his opinion.
