YHM Backup Iron Sights | Review

March 6, 2017 by Rex Nanorum Leave a Comment

With the quality of primary optics being at an all time high, I've noticed a trend of many shooters skipping back-up iron sights (BUIS) on their primary fighting rifle.  I feel that if a gun is to be used for more than competition or as a range toy, BUIS are still a critical component to have.  I was able to get my hands on a set of Yankee Hill Machine's (YHM) HK … [Read more...]

Red Team: The AK Family of Weapons

March 6, 2017 by The Arms Guide Guest Writer Leave a Comment

March 2, 2012 by Bravo One 81 Comments In my last post, I discussed some facets of our M4 platform, so I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the red team workhorse, the AK Family of weapons.

Xtreme Precision Extended Takedown Pins: Fast and easy

November 2, 2016 by The Arms Guide Guest Writer Leave a Comment

by Rex NanorumIf two is one and one is none, then the little things are big and the big things are essential. I've said it in more than a few of my articles: America's next battle rifle will be less of a paradigm shift and more of a collection of all the incremental improvements made over decades of service with a modular rifle. Extra pin for the pushing on the backside. Photo … [Read more...]
