The Laser Saddle By Crimson Trace – Light It Up
Published: March 6, 2022 { 6 comments }I’m an unashamed shotgun nerd, and I love all types of shotguns. This includes guns that are technically not shotguns but use shotgun patterns, shotgun ammunition, and the like. You know, those pesky little firearms like the TAC-14 and Shockwave firearms.

The Streamlight TLR RM2 – A Modern Long Gun Light
Published: August 8, 2021 { 2 comments }Weapon lights are pretty standard these days, right? Pack in a lot of lumens and candela, use a 18650 or a couple of 123s, and call it a day, right?
