Hanson stresses the importance of practice with a safe and empty firearm to ensure proficiency and proper equipment function.

The Flux Raider P365 system offers a compact PDW-like experience, with distinct advantages between the Ultralite and metal versions.

Professor Shane, a subject matter expert at Gun For Hire Range, discusses the U.S. military's transition from the M4 to the SIG XM7 (M7) rifle.

While acknowledging the 6.8mm cartridge's effectiveness in the M250 machine gun, he questions its suitability for the M7 rifle, suggesting that higher hit probability is achieved through greater ammunition availability rather than a higher-pressure round with a shorter barrel life.
