Looking for a new light for your AR-15? Say hello to the Inforce WML. I recently built another AR-15 (they're like potato chips—no one can stop at just one).

A Bombproof Single Point Sling Mount for your AR
Today, I’d like to bring an AR single point sling mount to your attention for consideration. “All-business” & “bomb-proof” are adjectives that come to mind after over two months of testing this mount from Troy Industries.

PWS Keymod Handguard Review
Yep, I love my AR-15 rifles. It's easy for me to find reasons to build more. One of my recent projects is a .300 AAC Blackout rifle that I plan to use for hunting. With this intent in mind, I looked into Primary Weapons Systems for a handguard solution for the newest to my AR collection.
