Suppressing the AR-15: Fight the noise

June 21, 2017 by The Arms Guide Guest Writer Leave a Comment

I pulled the trigger on my MK18 with a surefire suppressor mounted and looked back at Jason, an active duty military police officer, "That's actually still kind of loud" he exclaimed while replacing his Peltor headset onto his ears. And it was. An AR-15 chambered in 5.56 is never particularly quiet due to a variety of factors. However, if you are considering a suppressor for … [Read more...]

Glock 22 Generation 3: Easy to find, Hard to beat

June 2, 2017 by Steven Hildreth, Jr. 24 Comments

The Glock 22 is one of the most widespread pistols in the United States for both civilian use and law enforcement. Part of its appeal is the .40cal Smith & Wesson round, which is in effect a scaled down 10mm round and serves as a nice gap in power and magazine capacity between the 9mm Parabellum and the .45ACP round.

Streamlight TLR-3: The right bright

December 20, 2016 by Nate Granzow 12 Comments

I've had bad experiences with cheap LED flashlights before. They're plenty bright out of the box, but seldom last more than a year and almost invariably die right as the house's power goes out. The last thing I wanted to do was slap a cheap bargain-brand LED light on a gun that I might need to rely on to protect myself and my family. That said, I also didn't have hundreds of … [Read more...]
