We chat with John Paul of JP Enterprises at SHOT Show 2019 where he highlights the new LRP-07 rifle, explains why someone should choose JP…and we also get a rundown of a wide variety or JP rifles, and what’s new in the world of pistol caliber carbines.
We get a lot of requests from readers to talk about the Polymer80 polymer lowers, so we recently had Jeremy Bedsaul of TacFix take a look at one for us. Aluminum has always been the no-brainer choice for my builds…and nothing here has changed that perspective, but it was interesting to see Jeremy go hands-on with one.
With Magpul celebrating it’s 20th anniversary in 2019, we were excited to visit the Magpul booth and take a look at what was new. Of everything we saw, the new .308 drum mag was our favorite…and the new bipod also looked quite nice in person. We get a tour of both new Magpul products in this video.
We had Bob Faxon from Faxon Firearms walk us through the Faxon Firearms lineup for 2019 at SHOT Show.
In the final part of our conversation with Chris Costa, we asked him his opinion of 300 Blackout. We get his opinion on preferred ammo and a somewhat surprising answer on his preferred barrel length for the caliber. Chris also talks about 300 Blackout vs. 5.56…and why distance in a gunfight matters.
Franklin Armory gives us a demonstration of their “digital action” (By “digital”, they mean your “finger”) that is featured on their Providence rifle…which will likely be released late this year. The firearm is described as a caliber convertible, non semi-automatic.
We talk with Kyle Lamb of Viking Tactics about VTAC offerings from Sig Sauer for 2019 and we also get an overview of the SIGM400, the SIGM500 TREAD and more. We also speak with John Hollister to discuss the Sig Sauer suppressor lineup for 2019.
Why is Geissele so highly regarded when it comes to a trigger you can depend on? To find out, we visited the Geissele booth at SHOT Show 2019 to get a close-up look at the Geissele SSA, G2S, SSA-E, Super Dynamic 3-Gun Trigger and get an overview of their Super Duty Trigger…We also ask why so many professionals recommend their brand.
We checked in with Josh Reed at the Strike Industries booth at SHOT Show to check out what’s new for 2019. He showed off a wide variety of items, including Glock mags, a new suppressor, an upper with interchangeable barrels, new muzzle devices, hand stop kits, QD hand guards and more…
We just ran into Taran Butler of Taran Tactical Innovations on the floor of SHOT Show 2019 and he was kind enough to spend a few minutes with us to answer some questions. We talked about what to look for in an AR, how to separate gimmicks from the real deal, how to get into competition shooting and more.
