After building the rifle for NRL22, based on the AR platform and running it through its first match, I decided to acquire the remaining accessories needed: Support bags. Support bags are crucial for NRL22 as they provide stability and precision during shooting. They help shooters maintain steady aim and reduce rifle movement. By providing a reliable rest, support bags enhance stability in various shooting positions, making them essential for competitors.After much research, and quick testing (thanks fellow fellow NRL22 shooters), I decided on the Area 419 bags. Lets see how they worked out in the following match.
After recurring issues with my bolt action 22lr, I decided to branch out try a semi-auto build for NRL22 Base Class, using the AR platform. Here, I will show what went in to it, how it performed, and what I would do differently.
Admittedly, this is a bit of a weird one. What would it take to put together a semi-budget friendly rifle that you could take with you during a SHTF scenario, that can server in both a defensive scenario and also a hunting scenario where small game is the only thing around and you need to feed the family? Well, I did the crazy part for you and figured it out. And now that it is together, I don’t feel so crazy
In November of 2023 I acquired my first 1911. The purists out there will tell you that my 1911, chambered in .40S&W, is not a real 1911. Regardless, I have a 1911 in .40S&W and I want to do some load development.
Trying to find the ammo/lot that my Ruger Precision Rimfire rifle liked the best was going to be much easier with my new Garmin Xero C1 Pro. I tested 6 types of 22lr ammo from low to high quality. Lets see what I tested and how the results came in.
My intention with this project was to put together a belt that could serve a wide range of purposes, such as steel shooting and 2-gun competitions, while also being adaptable enough to meet future requirements like 3-gun competitions or SHTF scenarios. In my search, I discovered a few vendors that provide the level of modularity I desired. After conducting thorough research and weighing all the options, I ultimately chose to go with Safariland. Lets see what I came up with.
After having my eye on the MagnetoSpeed chronograph for quite a while, I came across a new player in the market, Garmin and their Xero C1. More expensive than the MagnetoSpeed, the Garmin features ease of use and compactness as its core features. Read on to see my set-up experience, initial impressions, and thoughts on if, knowing what I know now, would I still buy it.
In this project, I wanted to build a competition ready Glock. This would include a ported barrel and slide, new trigger, and adding more weight, all with the goal of reducing recoil and make it more controllable for competitions like Steel Shoot. Starting from a base Gen 3 Glock 22 (yes, you read that right) I turned to multiple vendors to build the beast that was in my head. Lets see how it turned out.
