EOTECH G45

The EOTECH G45 5X Magnifier

{ 2 comments }

With the delivery of the G45 magnifiers starting in early 2021, EOTECH has been ramping up production to meet demand. People have been very interested in the benefits the G45 provides over the tried and true G33. First and foremost, the G45 comes in with 5X magnification whereas the G33 was only 3X, and I am a big fan.

The Sentry Gunnar Belt - Keep It Minimalist

The Sentry Gunnar Belt – Keep It Minimalist

{ 3 comments }

The Gunnar belt provides an excellent platform for mounting all your tactical goodies. It’s small and discrete enough to ensure you can conceal it if necessary. The Gunnar is a perfect duty belt and provides a modern tactical option that will allow you to retain all your necessary gear without needing a chest rig or plate carrier. Sentry made the belt comfortable, durable, and truly minimalist without requiring any kind of harness to keep the belt from shifting.

If you are piecing together an AR15 upper you have most likely wondered what bolt carrier group or BCG you should go with. These days many manufactures are spitting out BCG’s each with its own set of pros and cons. Listing all of your required features will help narrow down the search to a handful of different BCGs. When I pieced out and built my 11.5” AR15, my requirements were that the BCG had to be affordable, full-auto rated, and TiN-coated was preferred. Enter the Brownells M16 Bolt Carrier Group with the Titanium Nitride coating.

Vortex Spitfire Gen 2 HD 3X Prism

The Vortex Spitfire Gen 2 HD is my new example for the reasons why prism optics rock. The Spitfire’s small size but capable magnification make it a perfect carbine optic. It’s no designated marksman’s optic, but for the typical carbine ranges, the Spitfire works and works well. The price point is affordable, and the optic is well suited for a variety of firearms.

olute bargain at $249, and I recommend you grab one while the grabbing is good. This is a great value optic and given the supply chain so far this year, probably going to be in short supply. You can also look forward to some long-term durability testing on mine over the next year because I’m not sending it back. And that is the strongest endorsement I know how to give.

I was more excited about the 22-C1 trigger for the 10/22 (and compatibles) than any other. Why? Because ammo is freaking expensive. Slinging lead is fun, but those 30-round .223 Rem. magazines add up quick. With the 22-C1, you can have the fun of super-fast semi-automatic fire without setting fire to your wallet. You may not win any wars with a 10/22, but it’s one of the best range toys I’ve ever had.
