3-Gun is a shooting sport I’ve been meaning to get into, but if you’re a noob like me then it can be a bit overwhelming at first. When it comes to building your own 3-Gun rifle there are so many options you can choose from depending on the class you want to compete in. From barrels, muzzle brakes, hand guards, triggers and optics, it all depends on what you want to spend. This video below helps breakdown the various options for a 3-Gun Tactical class rifle, check out his other videos as well for more tips on 3-Gun shooting and competition.

Grizzly Targets Reactive Auto Reset 220 Review

May 19, 2013 Reviews

grizzly-targets-reset-target-review

If you’ve never shot at steel targets out at the range let me just tell you, you’re really missing out. For years I shot at paper targets. I walked out to them during line breaks to check my grouping and staple new targets etc, until one day I had the chance to shoot at steel. The first time I heard that “PING” I had a grin from ear to ear. Don’t get me wrong, paper targets still have their place and they’re not going anywhere, but that instant satisfaction of knowing you hit what you were aiming for is hard to beat. So is not having to walk down range to set up new targets all the time.

High Tower Armory 90/22 Bullpup Stock

May 15, 2013 Rifles

high-tower-armory-90-22-bullpup-stock

The Ruger 10/22 is arguably one of the most popular .22lr firearms of all time with millions made over the years, it’s no wonder there’s so much aftermarket parts available for them. From aftermarket barrels, high-capacity magazines and stocks. And even with the plethora of parts available for the venerable old 10/22, my 15 year old Ruger is still completely stock. If it ain’t broke why fix it right? Well I stumbled upon this bullpup stock kit from the folks over at High Tower Armory that made me rethink my stubbornness to mod my Ruger.

Their 90/22 bullpup stock turns your 10/22 into a short and compact bullpup that looks similar to the FN P90 sub machine gun. It even has a spare ammo holder up top that looks like the P90′s top loader magazine. It’s made out of military grade polymer and shortens the overall length of your 10/22 to around 26.5″s. It includes aluminum Picatinny rails for optics and accessories and an ambidextrous steel charging handle and steel trigger linkage. It also comes with a dummy suppressor to cover the skinny 10/22 barrel and makes the gun look pretty bad ass. It will accept standard factory 10 round mags as well as most of the high-capacity mags on the market, except drum mags. The price? Just under $240. They’ll be available in black, OD green and desert tan. Check them out at Hightowerarmory.com for more info. They’re currently not available but they should be hitting the market fairly soon.

There’s a new gun magazine that hit newsstands recently from the folks at GunUp. The gun news site and online retailer is now getting into the publication business, you can actually download a free preview issue right here. If you like what you see you can purchase a year subscription online at Amazon for just $36. I actually think it’s a pretty darn good mag so far.

To help promote their new mag GunUp is also giving away an AR-15 if you enter in their contest.

Homemade Glock in 9×18 Makarov

AK-47s are renowned for their reliability, and for the fact they’re cheap and easy to build. Everyone from DIY home gunsmiths here in the US to hand made guns from the Khyber Pass. Well it looks like the other main firearm known for it’s reliability is starting to be copied as well. This Glock was made in Russia with just a chisel, file and a drill out of steel and epoxy. It’s chambered in 9×18 Makarov too. It’s actually not that bad, in this market I’m sure it would probably sell in no time.

Thefirearmblog posted that Citadel is planning on releasing a 9mm version of their M-1 Carbine replicas. No word on pricing was released however with a ship date being somewhere in late 2013. If these manage to be problem free and if magazines are affordable I can see them selling a ton of them.

Fake EOTech 512s Spotted on Amazon

Looks like fake EOTech optics are back on Amazon, I spotted this EOTech 512 knock off on Amazon at around $45 shipped while shopping yesterday. I was under the impression that Amazon took down these EOTech copies, these are probably the same fake EOTech’s sold at the gunshows that many unscrupulous sellers pass off as the real deal. Reviews on it on Amazon are mixed, I wouldn’t buy one for a my real deal .223/5.56 AR-15 but it would probably make a decent optic for a trainer airsoft gun or maybe a .22lr AR-15. I use budget optics on my .22 rifles, just realize what you’re buying and don’t expect it to perform anywhere near the real deal.

In case you bought what you thought was a real EOTech at a gunshow, online seller, forum etc and suspect it may be a fake, here’s a guide on how-to tell if your EOTech is a knock off.

Brazilian Cops Stop Plane With Their Car

May 10, 2013 News

Down in Brazil it seems the cops have a different style of doing things, at least the cops who aren’t paid off to look the other way. By a different style, I mean crashing their police car into a drug runner’s airplane or shooting at their getaway cars from a helicopter. Check out the two videos below that were posted on Jalopnik today.

The first video below was in Santa Vitória, Brazil and shows federal police using their own police car to push the plane off the runway before it could take off. Five suspects were caught with more than 500 pounds of cocaine. The second video is from Ribeiráo Preto, Brazil where police took out a plane that was smuggling stolen electronics to Paraguay.

The pic to the left is from the movie Elite Squad about the elite BOPE officers in Brazil, it’s definitely worth a watch! So is the sequel Elite Squad: The Enemy Within. Yeah I just wanted a reason to plug these awesome movies. Back to the videos.
