The 4 Rail System
The traditional setup for an AR usually means only mounting optics on the top, like an A3 AR and nothing on the sides. I know there are some variations that still can use a flashlight, but they are not as common. I was at the range putting my new setup to the test and after about 50rds of shooting, that cold hard, somewhat sharp 4 rail setup started to feel rough on my hands. I’ve decided to pick up some Tango Down rail panels to help protect my hands and the rails until I settle on which kind of M4 Carbine setup I’m going to go with. Still shopping for the right flashlight.
Well, I found out the hard way or should I say the sore way. I picked a Midwest forearm 4 rail handguard a few years ago and loved the thing. I didn’t have the need to use all of the rails right off the bat, but I figured I’d atleast put a flashlight on it at some point. Well, I’m not much of the tactical accessory type, but I figured I’d go tactical with the 4 rail forearm. Most of my ARs have the standard forearms and I’m use to holding the rifle in the traditional manner.

I picked up a pair of 10×42 
I was talking to a friend of mine who recently picked up a Bulgarian SA93 and was looking to start taking it the range over the weekend. He mentioned that some of the AK mags he had for his new rifle didn’t seem to fit properly. I told him that he might want to go through his AK gun collection and match the mags that work to the guns. I went through this ordeal several years ago and sometimes people think that stockpiling a bunch of surplus AK mags means comfort, but the reality is that every magazine manufacturer and every gun manufactuer are going to have various tolerances concerning the magwell.
Whether you’re looking to protect your guns for travelling to the shooting range, on a hunting trip, or just looking to protect it from getting knocked around in your closet, Gun Guard gun cases are an option for you. Gun Guard gun cases are not going to burn a hole in your pocket either. There is a time and place for using a soft case to carry your guns around, but unless you’re really worried about your guns suriving a 5000ft drop from an airplane, there’s not reason to be spending hundreds of dollars on a hard case.
The Bianchi black widow holster can be used with a J-Frame revolver. You will want to choose a good gun belt for any of your Bianchi holsters. Some of the Bianchi holsters are attached to a belt through a belt loop or by a clip. Depending on your preferences, you will have to decide on what works for you. As to which type of belt, we highly recommmend using The Wilderness Belts which come in various styles and colors.
The more gear you put on your body the more you’ll worry about placement, and like every other mode of carry, there are different tools for different tasks. Blackhawk gear has some of the top notch products for your needs. You can choose from different levels of retension, too. There are always paddle holsters or something like Fobus that are fairly inexpensive, but our highest recommendations are always the Blackhawk Tactical Holsters.
The argument about which gun is better than the other is like beating a dead horse to most gun enthusiasts, but when talking about gun holsters there seems to be very little argument. Whenever I speak to my friends about the topic of gun holsters, there is a clear and obvious reality that no holster is good for everything. Some holsters look nice and feel nice, but they won’t hold up to adverse weather. Nylon and plastics are options for damp environments, but there can always be drawbacks.

We have compiled info from our membership over the years and hoping that eventually we will get enough input to keep our info up to date. While we realize that some glubs do not want to post all of there info, we feel that we can be a conduit for people atleast finding out how to find out where a range is.
