Why I Choose XS Big Dots for Defense

This video explains the physics behind firearm sights, specifically how bullet trajectory is affected by gravity and sight offset. It demonstrates that sights are designed to be slightly angled downward relative to the barrel to compensate for bullet drop, allowing for a straight-line sight picture to align with the target. The presenter tests this principle with a pistol at various distances, noting the point of impact deviations.

This video features Donnie Bowen, a Green Beret and martial arts instructor, demonstrating essential combatives skills for warfighters. The focus is on controlling a threat opponent, emphasizing that true mastery requires in-person training with a qualified instructor. The video also acknowledges sponsor XS Sights, known for innovative firearm sights, and encourages viewers to support Tactical Rifleman through Patreon. Additional resources and social media links are provided.

This guide details the proper technique for achieving a precise sight picture using iron sights, emphasizing front sight focus and the 'equal height, equal light' principle. It also covers a cost-effective modification to improve sight picture clarity by blacking out existing dots. Instruction is provided by an experienced marksman.

This video introduces a new segment where the host critiques viewer-submitted shooting videos, focusing on technique and common errors like recoil anticipation and improper grip. It highlights specific issues such as the misuse of trigger guard serrations and poor shooting form. The host also discusses the importance of quality sights, mentioning an upcoming sale on XS tritium night sights.

This video details a 50-round handgun familiarization drill designed to re-establish proficiency after a period of inactivity. The drill progresses from fundamental sight picture and trigger control to controlled pairs, target transitions, and shooting with primary and support hands, culminating in longer-range rested and unrested shots. The instructor emphasizes the importance of consistent practice to maintain skills.

This video explores the definition of a 'brush gun' using the .45-70 Government caliber, specifically testing Lehigh Defense all-copper bullets against traditional ammunition's performance through brush and branches. The Henry X rifle, equipped with Midwest Industries MLOK rail and XS Sights, was used for testing. The discussion delves into multiple definitions of a brush gun, including its ability to penetrate brush, its utility in close quarters, and its potential for reduced over-penetration with certain bullet types.

This guide details the installation and deployment of the Freedom Ordnance FG-15 trigger crank grip for the AR-15 platform. It covers the mechanical operation, emphasizing the piston-driven trigger activation via a retractable crank. The video features a high-authority speaker, providing technical insights into the internal workings and live-fire performance.

This guide details the technique for firing the PKM 7.62x54R machine gun in full-auto. It emphasizes proper mounting, loading, and stable firing positions. The VSO Gun Channel Host, with high authority, demonstrates sustained fire, highlighting the weapon's cyclic rate and the importance of recoil management.

This expert analysis from The VSO Gun Channel delves into the nuances of firearm suppressors, clarifying terminology and regulatory hurdles. It highlights the historical context of the term 'silencer,' the practical sound reduction achieved (approx. 130 dB), and the significant NFA process in the US, including the $200 tax stamp and lengthy wait times. The content also advocates for legislative changes like the Hearing Protection Act, emphasizing suppressors as hearing protection tools.

The VSO Gun Channel host provides a cautionary guide on suppressor use in home defense. Firing an unsuppressed firearm indoors, especially a 10.5-inch SBR, can cause temporary deafness. This hearing impairment poses a significant risk, potentially leading to fatal miscommunication where a homeowner mistakes a family member for an intruder. The speaker emphasizes that suppressor use is only acceptable in a home defense context if the resident lives alone.
