T.REX ARMS

This expert-level guide from T.REX ARMS focuses on the practical application of Trijicon ACOG optics, specifically the TA02 and TA31 models. It emphasizes a supported shooting technique for engaging targets at distance and highlights the optic's durability and effectiveness, even in poor lighting. The guide also touches upon the extensive aftermarket support available for these optics.

This guide, informed by T.REX ARMS, focuses on MP5 safety manipulation techniques. It highlights challenges with ergonomics compared to the AR-15 platform, particularly when engaging the safety from a low ready position. The instruction emphasizes practicing different starting positions to optimize thumb reach and efficiency.

This video explores the potential of the .300 Blackout cartridge as a General Purpose Rifle (GPR) round, capable of effective engagement at distance with optimized subsonic and supersonic loads. Instruction from T.REX ARMS highlights its 'Hollywood quiet' capability with subsonic ammunition and suppressors, originally designed for the PDW role. The discussion emphasizes optimizing the platform for both subsonic and supersonic performance.

This video from T.REX ARMS evaluates the .300 Blackout cartridge's viability as an 'all-around' rifle round. While acknowledging its effectiveness in specific Personal Defense Weapon (PDW) roles and for suppressed, close-quarters applications, the assessment concludes it falls short as a true do-it-all rifle due to limitations in long-range ballistics, ammunition cost, and weight compared to 5.56mm. The review highlights practical testing of accuracy, recoil, and maneuverability with a SIG MCX Virtus build.

This video demonstrates a 'cold start' shooting drill designed to assess proficiency under simulated stress. Instructor Lucas Botkin, despite a recent knee injury, showcases a drill involving rapid fire at multiple distances with both pistol and rifle. The drill emphasizes accuracy, recoil management, and weapon manipulation, concluding with an analysis of target hits to gauge performance.

This video from T.REX ARMS, presented by Lucas Botkin, explores the concept of a 'Generation 6 Glock' by comparing a factory-enhanced Glock with common upgrades against custom-built Glocks. Botkin, demonstrating high expertise, highlights that while Glocks are reliable, previous generations often lacked desired features like improved grip texture and controls. The comparison aims to assess how factory-integrated upgrades stack up against personalized custom builds.

This review from T.REX ARMS analyzes the new Generation 6 Glock pistols, comparing factory upgrades against custom builds. The Gen 6 features significant improvements in slide serrations, optic mounting, frame texture, and controls. While an objective upgrade over previous stock generations, the video suggests dedicated shooters may still prefer custom options for highly specific needs. The analysis includes shooting comparisons, reliability tests in adverse conditions, and an assessment of trigger and grip performance.

This video from T.REX ARMS, featuring Lucas Botkin, critically examines the National Firearms Act (NFA) and its regulations on Short Barreled Rifles (SBRs) and Shotguns (SBSs). Botkin argues the NFA's restrictions are historically rooted in failed Prohibition-era policies and are arbitrary and illogical. The content highlights the NFA's complex history, the financial burden of tax stamps, and the ongoing legal battles and advocacy efforts to repeal or reform these laws, emphasizing the human cost of enforcement.

This video demonstrates the assembly of the T.REX ARMS Sidecar holster, highlighting its modular hinge system and various attachment options. It then transitions into a first-person perspective of advanced dry fire drills, showcasing efficient drawing from a concealed appendix position, target engagement, and simulated reloads using a Glock 19 equipped with an Aimpoint ACRO P-2 and Surefire X300 Turbo, all timed via the 'Range Day' app. The instruction emphasizes high-speed firearm manipulation and efficient gear setup.

This review of the Sons of Liberty Gun Works (SOLGW) MK1 rifle, which secured a U.S. SOCOM contract, provides an in-depth analysis of its performance. The assessment includes accuracy, recoil, and heat mitigation testing, comparing it against other builds. The expert instructors conclude the MK1 offers professional-grade quality and tuning out-of-the-box, justifying its premium price for a duty-ready platform.

This guide details the proper technique for tossing a flashbang grenade, emphasizing positive control of the spoon and recommending an underhand toss for enhanced accuracy. It also highlights the importance of understanding the dual safety mechanisms common on these devices, as demonstrated by Lucas Botkin from T.REX ARMS.

This video demonstrates the use of a parachuting flare by Lucas Botkin from T.REX ARMS. The flare provides about 45 seconds of bright illumination, effectively lighting up an outdoor range. The demonstration highlights the recoil of the launcher and the flare's parachute deployment for sustained light.
