SIG’s P365XL is a sub-compact that performs like a full-size pistol. Big enough to handle serious self-defense but small enough to carry concealed. The optics ready XL model features an enhanced frame, flat trigger and increased barrel length while retaining the concealability of the original P365.

During my treks across the West, I’ve tested more backpacks than Justin Bieber has hair gels. Why? Simple, a good pack can make the difference between an enjoyable hunt and a miserable one, especially once the game is put down.

Despite some wind noise issues, Champion’s Vanquish Pro Elite is a great option if you’re looking to step up your ear pro game. The acoustic foam and sound suppression keep your ears comfortable all day, the speakers and microphones provide clear feedback about your surroundings, and the 6x amplification is handy in the tree stand.

There are a ton of different holster materials to choose from ranging from leather to Kydex to hybrids to nylon.

This tool is extremely versatile, fitting most pistol slides, including Glock and 1911 styles.

There’s a wide world of holsters out there and the options are practically endless, so be persistent and you’ll find the right one for you and your G48.

After using the ActionHeat Heated Rechargeable Insoles through the summer months as well as the busiest part of winter, I am convinced that this is the solution that I have been looking for. I am able to adjust the heat with a remote fob, which allows me to cater to the situation at hand. There were days while I was out deer hunting off of horseback in sub-zero weather, where I had them turned to max power in order to keep my feet warm in the stirrups, and then turned them off when I transitioned from riding to walking in order to keep my feet comfortable.

This bow is a win. Period! It’s quiet, hushed, accurate and during two months of testing, never faltered. If you’re in the market for a new-for-2020 vertical bow, this one is worth a test drive.
