Muzzle Devices, the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly!

Muzzle Devices, the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly!

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Choosing which muzzle device to attach to your centerfire rifle is one of the most critical yet least understood aspects of a rifle build.  Mired in pseudo-science, hyperbole, and masterful marketing, it can be difficult to separate fact from fiction. Truth is,...
6 ARC vs. What You Already Own – Is it the Next Generation Carbine Cartridge?

6 ARC vs. What You Already Own – Is it the Next Generation Carbine Cartridge?

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Given all the focus on the Army’s NGSW (Next Generation Squad Weapon) program when the Hornady 6mm ARC was introduced it was pretty easy to mix the two up. Typical social media and industry speculation fired up with a fury. Arguments amongst experts (real and...
“No Mind” – Mastering the Art of Shooting   

“No Mind” – Mastering the Art of Shooting   

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Spend any time with a hunter, fighter, competitor, or even warfighter who has mastered their craft and they give zero thought to the minutia when applying their skill. So that begs the question asked of me countless times throughout my decades of training and training...
Kestrel and Applied Ballistics, it’s not Rocket Science!

Kestrel and Applied Ballistics, it’s not Rocket Science!

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Talk to an old timer who relishes the “old days” and they will tell you they expended thousands of rounds and hundreds of hours to “know their rifles” and determine their ballistics. Like most of the old days it was just that, old. It was a PITA, costly, and it took a...
NOT an AR! Deep Dive into the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus – Part 2: DMR

NOT an AR! Deep Dive into the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus – Part 2: DMR

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Before we dive deep into the Sig Sauer Virtus DMR review we should pause to review my background which dictates my methods and therefore what you’ll read here. I authored my first review of an AR for national publication in August of 2009, Barret’s REC 7 for Black...
NOT an AR! Deep Dive into the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus – Part 1: SBR

NOT an AR! Deep Dive into the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus – Part 1: SBR

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

When Sig Sauer introduced its MCX it was mostly a rifle caliber MPX to me, anything but earth shattering. After testing hundreds of AR’s, getting excited about anything AR is difficult. Having tested a bunch of Sig Sauer firearms, they always seem well thought out and...
From Skeptic to Convert – ZRODelta Cowl Induction Brake Real World Testing and Results

From Skeptic to Convert – ZRODelta Cowl Induction Brake Real World Testing and Results

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Anyone remotely acquainted with my philosophy when it comes to muzzle brakes knows how much I dislike them. Disdain would be the most common term used, although that remains understated. Most of my shooting career has revolved around duty as a Law Enforcement...
Cyclic Rate of Fire, what is it, and why is it part of the Bump Stock Ban?

Cyclic Rate of Fire, what is it, and why is it part of the Bump Stock Ban?

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

A friend with an AR asked me a question yesterday. Like most gun owners she knows how to use them, but no gun background to speak of. She wanted to know what can increase rate of fire in an AR, and why is banning bump fire stocks such a problem? Politics aside, there...
Slap-Tap-Tickle – The Sensational Semantics of Shooters

Slap-Tap-Tickle – The Sensational Semantics of Shooters

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

With the test range tied up for a local competition, time on the computer this weekend increased. It’s a blessing and a curse, as while some of what’s on Social Media is interesting and useful, most is meaningless drivel. Mind numbing click bait aside, it does allow...
Possibly the Most Extensive Test of the Versatile Trijicon Accupower 1-8x Scope Anywhere

Possibly the Most Extensive Test of the Versatile Trijicon Accupower 1-8x Scope Anywhere

by David Bahde | Dr. WT...?, Tactical Time Lord. Some tactics never die, they just get regenerated.

Trijicon has long been one of my most trusted sighting tools so I was eager to test their Accupower 1-8x and got one of the first available.  My appreciation for Trijicon optics started years ago, running the venerable ACOG magnified optics and their reflex sight. My...
