Since the President spoke about gun control last December gun, ammo, and accessory sales have been through the roof. Mapul, the creators of the infamous polymer magazine for the AR15 and Military counterpart  has been accepting backorders for the black PMag at Brownings and a few other online retailers.  Rumors are that the backorder number has hit over 1 million backorders…..

Guess I won’t be seeing an iPhone 5 case from Magpul anytime soon…until then here is the Facebook status that set everything in motion today.magpul

Wisconsin based ATI Gunstocks has posted a preview of their new rail system for the VEPR series of rifles. VEPR already comes with a pretty nice wood stock, but ATI takes the AK variant to an AR tactical style look.  The forearm offers a 7-sided nose cone that can anchor itself into any corner for added stability control. The forward stabilizing nose cone is made of lightweight military anodized aluminum giving the gun better maneuverability around tight spaces as well.

Preparing Your ATV for Hunting Season

Recently I was introduced to ATV riding for recreational use.  It was quite a bit of fun, and exhilarating.  I was lucky enough to be introduced to ATV riding at a park close to the Air Force base in Goldsboro, NC.  The trails were amazing, the on-site mechanic, helped my buddy fix a small problem before riding and we were set.  I had never really gone off-roading unless you count going 4x4ing in the sands at the beach going off road.  After seeing the ATV I was riding go through mud pits, climb giant dunes, and just cruise along on the paths, I saw great potential taking an ATV hunting in the middle of great farm land I plan to hit up in a few weeks.  Before I just run off with the ATV I had purchased, there are a few tweaks I need to do, just for the hunting part of things.

Venison Chili

With Fall in full swing, and winter just around the corner, I thought a great chili recipe would be just the thing to warm everyone up on those rather cool nights. This would be great if at the hunting lodge with the guys or a simple meal served with cornbread.

Hunting In The Cold

Submitted By: Chris | Date posted: 10.27.2011 (6:11 AM) | Write a Comment

The one trait about hunting season I normally dislike is, the cold. Being up in the tree stand, or sitting down below on the cold ground, just isn’t my idea of fun.  Having to wear a bulky gear that is restrictive just isn’t an option.  I was excited when I learned that Columbia released a new Omni-Heat Line of clothing that solves this problem.

Here is a short video of Wim Hoff, showing off why he doesn’t need it.  If you don’t know Hoff yet, he is a world record holder of over 18 world records, including the longest ice bath.  I think Columbia found the perfect spokesperson for their new line.

When they someone says they are keeping something close to their chest, they really mean it here.  This new holster can have the user gun holding in less than 1.5 seconds.

Product Review: Magnum Force Stealth 8.0 Ct Boot

Matt spotting in a deer!

Over the years civilian combat boots have gone through a number of changes.  Unlike government issues boots, the companies have to answer to an even higher power, the consumer.  Companies that provide solutions to issues a consumer has, can usually be counted on to be around for quite a while.  Well it’s my privilege to introduce you to a boot that not only has the attention of consumer’s world wide but also many governments.  Let me be the first to introduce you to the Magnum Force Stealth 8.0 Ct Boot.
