In the spring of 2018, three years ago, I ordered my first PWS. The MK216 MOD 1-M chambered in .308 WIN. Funnily enough, I outlined the reasons for my purchase decision in my .233 PWS review published in May of 2019. I concluded that review with a promise to publish...

A few months ago SHWAT Prostaffer Jared Hilton tagged me in a Facebook post. He didn’t know it at the time, but that action would later cause a chain of events to occur that lead to 118 hogs down in two nights. The post I clicked on took me to a video about the...

The 8 year old version of me had a Lamborghini poster on my wall. If my wife would let me put up posters as a grownup, I would have a poster of BNVDs hanging on the wall. The chance to review a FLIR FLIR BNVD-51ss 3G White Phosphor Binocular Night Vision Device, left...

It’s summer, 2019, and as I mount my SilencerCo Omega I wonder to my self, “If you don’t have a silencer yet, I have to ask, what are you waiting for?” Seriously, buying a can has never been easier. Sure, we still have to deal with the NFA’s regulatory hoops, but...

The N-Vision HALO and HALO-LR thermal optics changed the thermal game this year. For that to mean anything useful, all we have to do is look back a few years. Not too long ago if you were in the market for a new thermal the choice was simple; get an ATN Thor. Well,...
