Drag Racing with Handguns – MGM Targets Man on Man Grand Nationals

This Event Will Be Held July 24-31, 2011

As Americans we love our guns and we certainly love competition. If you are a handgun owner, you have probably heard of, seen on TV, or even attended some sort of competition.

2011 MGM Ironman – The Ultimate Test of Equipment

Category : Competition, Handguns, Optics, Rifles, Shooting Gear Review, Shotguns, Tactical, Video

The MGM Ironman is the biggest and toughest 3 Gun competition in the world. That’s why close to 300 shooters migrate to Parma, Idaho each June for an entire week to shoot the 3 day match. Even though the match directors split the match into two 3 day sections to accommodate more shooters, there was still a waiting list to shoot the Scoped Tactical division.

Due to the high round count and extremely long stages, many shooters view the MGM Ironman as the ultimate test of their equipment. Official round counts were just a few rounds shy of 1000 rounds, and that’s if you shot a perfect match. Many shooters shot twice that amount of ammunition.

While at the SHOT Show we saw JP Enterprise’s new Stock Chassis system for Savage’s and Remington’s. We could only look at it but liked what we saw. The stock folded, a great feature that allows a long-barreled bolt gun to fit in tighter spaces. The stock also locked up very tight and solid. The chassis system allows you to

PCP Polymer Ammunition – SHOT Show Media Day 2011

Category : SHOT Show 2011, Tactical, Video

PCP Ammo introduced new ammunition at the SHOT Show Media Day this year. This ammo is exciting because the cartridge cases are made of polymer, a plastic. The polymer cases are much lighter than brass so if you are carrying around large quantities of ammo like the boys in Iraq you can either carry more or carry the same but have it weigh less. PCP is also claiming that the ammunition is extremely accurate; sub MOA. The cases can be reloaded. Also, the
