When it comes to an all-purpose optic for your Springfield Armory SAINT 5.56 or .308, in my opinion the “short dot” scope is king.

You may remember my initial review of the CMMG Mk 47 in August of 2020, which was a lesson for yours truly in not prejudging rifles. What I didn’t say in the review was how said Mk 47 even came into our hands. I had not touched a CMMG product in the better part of a decade and was I will say “underwhelmed” with that previous foray. CMMG didn’t suck in 2013, but they also didn’t exactly blow my socks off. Oh neat, a black AR-15? Please, do go on….

Accessories Misc. Clay Martin Gear Reviews Ah, the classic EOTECH 512. It is perhaps especially fitting that we have one in for testing since it was such a star during America’s longest war. EOTech was an instant hit with the US Military and came to the attention of many of us when the GWOT started in 2001. The first true Holographic sight, EOTECH took the world by storm.

Estimated reading time: 7 minutes We have one of the oddest reviews you can think of because it isn’t really a gun. It’s gun-related though. Specifically, it’s the customer service experience when your gun no longer goes bang. Two guns in the last two months have failed me either under 500 rounds, or straight out of the box. Which is not exactly a great look for quality control across the industry right now. I should point out, that both of these guns were purchased off the shelf.

When we think of Eugene Stoner’s magic black rifle, we tend to think of it as America’s gun. Which is largely true. The English and Italians have some fine shotguns. The Czechs and Swiss both have made some fine handguns. But with AR’s, we never think of anyone across the pond. But should we be? For sure, that is changing. And one of the leaders of that charge is Hera Arms, based out of Germany.

Estimated reading time: 5 minutesGood morning to all of you ruck lovers! Or backpacks, as my wife so condescendingly calls them. Or knapsacks, if she is really mad and once again mocking my very small, very well thought out collection of absolutely necessary shoulder carry options. This week, we are taking a look at a great option from Down Under. The CrossFire DG3, from Australia with love.

Estimated reading time: 6 minutesGood morning, friends, and welcome to a long-overdue review that covers customizing the P365 pistol. The P365 family of weapons has been a hot item since its release four years ago. We have seen a lot of variants such as the P365 SAS, P365X, and most recently, the P365 Fire Control Unit. The Fire Control Unit, or FCU, is a Sig unique way of making a gun infinitely customizable.

Estimated reading time: 7 minutesA good way to start a fight amongst your friends is to bring up the subject of lights and lasers for concealed carry guns. Opinions run strong on this one, and they are all over the map. Some will tell you lasers build bad habits, and you should never have one. Some will tell you lights get in the way on a CCW piece, and you shouldn’t use one anyway.
