Big Workhorse Bang for Your Hunting & Shooting Buck! Where has the time gone? When I look back over my life, I see a series of mountains and valleys, each navigated, some carelessly, yet none left without my footprints… and occasional claw marks – I’ve never been a...
If there is a Dr. Frankenstein of the shooting world, it is the AR-15 owner. We love to accessorize, modify, and reconfigure our AR-15s. We shorten barrels and switch handguards. We cycle through optics, transplant buttstocks and grips, and change calibers like mad...
A year ago Timney two stage triggers were as conceivable as Han Solo’s son killing him in the new Star Wars movie. Both happened. Odds makers in Vegas might have placed longer odds on Timney two stage triggers. For seventy years Timney has been committed to producing...
The first time I saw a .458 SOCOM years ago I couldn’t imagine why someone would want one. A heavy recoiling AR-15 with limited magazine capacity – what’s the point? Now I laugh at myself and consider my former opinion Exhibit A: Lack of Vision! Well that changed, and...

I’ve been hunting for a trophy boar for months. I’ve seen it several times on the game camera, but never in person. Now, here I am after several hours of waiting, and here he is. He must be 350 pounds and has a serious set of tusks. Bringing my rifle up, I center my...
I have a thing for folding stocks. Why? They add a layer of flexibility to any firearm that has one. I’m not the only one that thinks this. Look at the wave of new designs that have come out in the last few years like the FNH SCAR and the Bushmaster ACR and the newest...
Now that you have read about what makes a Wilson Combat firearm so legendary, you may be wondering what they are like in the real world of shooting and hog hunting. I’m here to tell you, they are truly great. They have earned the reputation fair and square. Here’s...
