We take a look at some Pistol Training gear options that we use (or have used) Some of these are OK, but together they can really be effective for keeping your shooting skills sharp. Not needing ammo or a shooting range lets a shooter practice almost anytime

.22lr Suppressor Comparrison

We shot three makes / models of .22lr suppressor;
C3 Defense KISS
Gemtech Outback II
Tactical Innovations Tac-65

These are each quality suppressor, however the Gemtech performed the best (no suprise) the TAC-65 performed just about the same as the Gemtech,but it's just a bit larger. The C3 K.I.S.S. did keyhole, but this was hardly a scientific test, so we will not give them a bad review. It could have been the range conditions, firearms, ammo or just the shooters that caused the issue

Each of these has a place in the suppressor market
C3 Defense K.I.S.S. = Lowest cost
Tactical Innovations Tac-65 = Great Deal (low cost/good performance)
Gemtech Outback II = Smallest, lightest

Don't let this quick review be your only research, but we hope this 7 minute video can help anyone researching .22lr suppressors

We had fun comparing these three suppressors, thanks to all who made it possible including:
Tucson Guns, C3 Defense and SERP

AR15 Muzzle Blast

A very quick test to show side blast from this short barreled AR15

This test was not all that dramatic, but this AR15 SBR was really obnoxious that morning (shooters even moved to other benches at the range because it was so loud & annoying)
I held up a paper target to try to help show how much of the muzzle blast was directed to the left & right side of the barrel (where we were standing)

Not our best video, but in case anyone is interested, here is this simple test

Modified Glock 32

A look at a modified Glock 32
We shoot it with a 9mm conversion barrel
This Glock 32 has been modified to 9mm with a Storm Lake conversion barrel, its sights have been upgraded to Warren Tactical Rear Sight with a Dawson Front Sight (a great combo)
This Glock frame has also been modified by removing the finger grooves, trigger guard has been rounded and the grip has been prepared to be stippled (rough texture)

I was surprised how well I shot with this Glock and I really like the combination of sights

The Glock 32 is a great option for shooters who like multiple calibers.. this Glock can be converted from it's original .357 sig caliber to 9mm, .40 s&w and even .22 lr

Blade-Tech AR15 Training Bolt

We are testing out this new Blade-Tech training aid for the AR15 rifle.

This valuable training tool is easy to store in a range bag. It's quick to swap out into an AR15 so training can take place anytime you have the opportunity
This device is also great for classrooms and instruction where live ammo would be dangerous

Almost all the manipulations and shooting techniques can still be performed with the Blade-Tech barrel in place

Another feature we liked over some other products we've tested is the ability to work in just about any AR15 or M-16 no matter what barrel length, muzzle break or even with a suppressor installed

This retails for under $20, and in our book it's worth every penny

The more you train the better you will shoot, and this barrel really expands an AR15 shooters ability to train and practice safely
