This video reviews the new Infitac IOP 13 thermal optic, comparing it to the Infitac IOL 25. It highlights the IOP 13's 256 core sensor and 1.5x base magnification, contrasting it with the IOL 25's 384 core sensor and 2x magnification. A key feature discussed is the 'IoT configuration,' allowing thermal imaging to be transmitted to a monocular, useful for tactical applications or as a hunting guide to monitor guests' targets.

This video provides a first look at the Atibal Nexus thermal dot optic. It showcases the optic's ability to provide clear thermal imaging of various subjects, including people, animals, and targets, even in outdoor environments. The reticle is visible over the thermal landscape, suggesting its utility for observation and potential targeting in low-light or obscured conditions.

The OneLeaf Mars Mini is an incredibly versatile micro-thermal optic with a built-in laser rangefinder and interchangeable lenses (19mm and 25mm). It offers multiple mounting options, including piggyback, 45-degree offset, and a traditional scope configuration with an optional eyepiece adapter. The device supports hot-swappable MicroSD cards for footage and can be powered by CR123 or 18650 batteries.

This guide, informed by Roy Huntington, Editor of American Handgunner Magazine, details the critical differences between buckshot and birdshot for home defense. It covers their physical characteristics, penetration capabilities through walls, and effectiveness at close range. The advice emphasizes choosing a load based on concerns about over-penetration while stressing the universal importance of training, target identification, and using a light for any home defense scenario.

This guide details the field stripping process for a 1911 pistol, presented by Roy Huntington, Publisher of American Handgunner. It covers essential safety checks, step-by-step disassembly, and reassembly, emphasizing techniques to prevent damage. An alternative 'cheat' method for faster disassembly is also demonstrated, along with advice on using specialized tools for tight components.

This video showcases an exceptionally rare find: a first-generation 1873 Colt Single Action Peacemaker, discovered via metal detecting in Arizona. The expert speaker details its museum-quality condition, dating it to 1875, and analyzes the authentic patina and wear, including specific gutta-percha grip details and muzzle wear from holster friction. The firearm's discovery context among homestead ruins adds to its historical narrative.

This guide, presented by Roy Huntington, Editor of American Handgunner Magazine, outlines an efficient '5-minute clean' for modern semi-automatic pistols like the Glock 26/27. It emphasizes that over-cleaning is unnecessary and can cause premature wear. The process focuses on targeted cleaning of critical areas like the barrel and slide rails, with minimal lubrication applied only to high-friction points. Proper function checks after reassembly are also highlighted.
