Well, what are your thoughts about Brian Williams? Is this just a simple case of misremembering the facts? Or was he deliberately trying to raise his profile as a news anchor?

We got a chance to speak with IraqVeteran8888 at SHOT Show 2015. What a genuine dude! We talked about open carry and the constitutionality of NFA items.

Until recently, when I thought of an air rifle I usually pictured something akin to a BB gun and the little silver CO2 cylinders. I know there has been a history of bigger bore and more powerful air rifles. Lewis and Clark had one with them for example. But modern air rifles are pushing the envelop and the chronograph on what can be accomplished with compressed air and AirForce is leading the way.

The Troy PAR, or Sporting Rifle, is an odd gun. The pump action, AR inspired rifle has some exquisite engineering, and lives up to Troy’s reputation for quality and accuracy. And now they’re releasing the gun in other calibers. And if that isn’t up your alley, the little PDW just might be.

TrackingPoint makes rifles that don’t miss. It is a tremendous concept. Tag your target and pull the trigger.

Their dedication to producing their own pieces and parts places them in a separate class of manufacturers, and allows them much tighter control of quality. and it shows. They’ve just released a new competition rifle that’s bad-ass, and they have bigger things coming this spring.
