New Lucids
Lucid sent me two new optics to review. The first is the Third generation of the HD7 red dot. This one in Flat Dark Earth. Initial impression is good. I love the original HD7, and I am seeing an improvement in the Gen 3. The new other optic is the new L5 rifle scope. This …
A Zeiss scope for the Cheater
Don’t get me wrong… when it comes to shooting, I’m all about Cheating. I’ll take any advantage I can. Such as this… The Zeiss Diarange rifle scope. It may not be cheap… but it’s like an FPS Cheat Code for real life. It’s got a very solid mounting system, one like none other I’ve seen …
Scopes Fail
I’ve seen scope failures from every scope maker. Zeiss, Swarovski, Leupold, Trijicon, Huskama, Nikon… Everyone. A Rifle Scope is a precision instrument mounted on something that recoils and gets knocked around. Every scope, no matter what, will eventually fail. That’s just a fact. Death and Taxes. So just because someone on the internet bitches and …
Meopta Optics
There is a fairly new line of optics out. If by fairly new you mean 80 years in the industry and people have still never heard of them. This is a set of Meopta 10×42 HD Binos sitting next to a set of Swarovski SLC 10×42′s. The Meoptas are retailing for $999.99 and the Swarovski’s …

Weaver
All the new scopes and Binos I’ve been seeing from Weaver has really been impressing me. Their quality for the prices they are offered at Retail… Very impressive. ATK has done very well to make Weaver a serious optics brand again. Kudos! I can say that Weaver has a couple good scopes and a Bino …
Red Dot: Vortex vs Lucid
Had a question about the Lucid HD7. Would I take it over a Vortex. (Strikefire or SPARC) Hands down I’d buy the Lucid. Again. Not a lot of people really know much about the Lucid. It’s pretty new in the market still, but it’s a good solid unit that’s given no problems and shoots with …
Crusader’s Demo Broadsword .308 Carbine
Crusader Weaponry is almost done with our new Broadsword Carbine Demo Gun. This gun is for Gun Writer Reviews. From this point previous, every photo you’ve seen of a Broadsword has been a Customer’s Gun. We’ve just not had the time and the parts to do a gun for just Demo Purposes. This gun is …

What do I need on my AR?
This is a common question that I get. What add-on’s does one really need? The simple answer is “none”. A basic, stripped down AR is perfectly serviceable. So you don’t necessarily need anything else. Anything from here on that you might add, should only be based on how it’s going to help you do what …
