This video reviews the Glock 17L, a 9mm pistol known for its extended slide and barrel, often referred to as the 'Joker gun'. The Gen 3 model features extended slide and magazine releases and does not come optic-cut, necessitating aftermarket sights like the TAG Precision sights installed by the presenter. It maintains the standard Glock 17 grip and 17-round flush-fitting magazine capacity.

This video reviews the Glock 30S Gen 3 chambered in .45 ACP. The presenter discusses its compact size, 3.78-inch barrel, and 22.75 oz empty weight, noting initial expectations of significant recoil. Despite a very short grip, the firearm performed better than anticipated, with the loaded weight and barrel length contributing to manageable recoil. The XGrip extension and slightly extended magazine base plates were found to improve grip and shooting comfort.

This review focuses on the Glock 27 chambered in .40 S&W, highlighting significant ergonomic challenges and shooting discomfort experienced by the presenter. Despite the firearm functioning reliably with zero malfunctions, the reviewer found the pistol's configuration to be 'abusive' and 'not fun' due to excessive effort required to shoot and discomfort in the hands, particularly the 'Glock knuckle' effect. The X-Grip extension offered some improvement, but overall, the reviewer expressed a strong dislike for the pistol's feel and configuration.

This review of the Smith & Wesson M&P15 Sport 3 (Gen 3) focuses on its value proposition as an AR-15 platform. While the rifle demonstrates 100% reliability and meets general AR-15 accuracy standards (2-3 MOA), it falls short of the exceptional accuracy seen in the first-generation model. The reviewer highlights its lightweight design, FNC nitrided barrel, and forged receivers as key features contributing to its value, despite a milspec trigger that is easily upgradable.

This guide details a practical experiment to debunk the myth that an AR-15 round would 'blow off' an ear.

This guide details an efficient iron sight technique, drawing on insights from 3-division USPSA Grand Master Tim Herron. It emphasizes a shift from rigid front sight focus to a more effective target-oriented approach, using the rear sight for gross aiming and the front sight for fine-tuning. This method is particularly beneficial for shooters transitioning from red dot sights.

This guide details the disassembly process for three popular 2011-style pistols: the Staccato P, Springfield Armory Prodigy, and Bul Armory SAS II Tac 4.25. It highlights differences in guide rod systems, with the Staccato P featuring a toolless system, the Bul Armory requiring a paperclip or staple, and the Springfield Armory Prodigy needing a hex wrench. Proper maintenance of the guide rod system is crucial for reliable firearm function.
