5 Cool Guns And Gear Products From The NRA Annual Meeting

May 30, 2017 By Tom McHale 1 Comment

Springfield Armory's new XD-E is a departure from the company's striker-fired pistol line-up.

This article originally appeared at Ammoland. The National Rifle Association Annual Meeting is a heck of a lot more than just meetings. Yes, the business of the NRA gets done, and there are plenty of speeches by industry figures, politicians, and others, but there’s also one of the world’s biggest gun and gear exhibits. This […]

Optical Sights On A Handgun? One Guys Experience

July 3, 2016 By Tom McHale Leave a Comment

Shield Mini Sights

There’s been much hullaballoo over the use of red dot sights like the Trijicon RMR, Shield MiniSight, Leupold DeltaPoint, and Sig Sauer Romeo on handguns. Some credible trainers claim they’re the best thing since sliced bread for defensive use. Other equally credible trainers have found the exact opposite—that searching for the red dot can cause […]

Six Budget-Friendly AR Scopes

June 3, 2016 By Tom McHale Leave a Comment

The Vortex Optics Strike Eagle

This article originally appeared at OutdoorHub. One of my favorite lines from an exceptionally entertaining movie, Kingsmen, is “manners maketh man.” You might also say that “optics maketh rifles” and that’s absolutely true. The best rifle on the planet won’t shoot worth beans without a decent optic up top. This brings us to the point […]

New from Glock: Optics-ready Glock 17 and 19

January 30, 2016 By Tom McHale 1 Comment

The new Glock 19 MOS with Leupold Deltapoint Pro optic.

This article originally appeared at OutdoorHub: The big news from Glock this year is the release of two new optics-ready models. Last year, Glock introduced the G40 Gen4 MOS chambered in 10mm. That model was intended to be the ideal semiautomatic hunting pistol. With its 9.5-inch overall length, optics mount, and powerful 10mm chambering, it was […]

Top 5 Short-range AR Optics

April 30, 2015 By Tom McHale 7 Comments

We're talking short range optics, but you can always add a magnifier.

What’s the “best” anyway? It all depends on the ranking criteria, right? Is the “best” car one that hits 60mph in 2.9 seconds or one that can tow the lower half of South Dakota to Manitoba? The same goes with optics, so as I own the ink until this article goes live and comments open, […]

Leupold’s 300 Blackout Offering: The Mark 4 MR/T 1.5-5x20mm

November 24, 2014 By Tom McHale Leave a Comment

Leupold Mark 4 MRT 300 AAC BLackout 1.5-5x20mm

There’s a reason there are so few 300 Blackout optics on the market. It’s kinda hard to design a single reticle to handle the exceptionally broad range of ballistic performance of that cartridge while keeping the reticle clean and simple. Let’s take a look at exactly what I mean by “broad range of ballistic performance.” […]

Top Shooting Gear Finds From The Crimson Trace Midnight 3 Gun Invitational

September 2, 2014 By Tom McHale Leave a Comment

The Smith & Wesson 929 Performance Center revolver is a 9mm. Moon clips make the rimless rounds work.

One of the highlights of the annual Crimson Trace Midnight 3 Gun Invitational is schmoozing time with the match sponsors. With more than 40 different companies present, I had many company reps to pester. Unlike chaotic events like SHOT Show or the NRA Annual Meeting, the M3GI has plenty of daylight hours (shooting is only […]

Gun Review: Daniel Defense DDM4v5 300 AAC Blackout AR Rifle

June 27, 2014 By Tom McHale Leave a Comment

Here's a slightly "geared up" Daniel Defense DDM4v5 300 Blackout.

Some phrases are just fightin’ words. “That’s MY horse!” “That’s MY daughter!” “I love the 300 Blackout!” For some reason, virtually any gunny discussion about the 300 AAC Blackout cartridge quickly devolves into a typing wind sprint where the winner itemizes more reasons why the 300 Blackout is not as good as (fill in your […]

About My Gun Culture

Hello, my name is Tom McHale. I'm the creator and primary author of the Practical Guides series of how-to books.

I also write lots of articles for various shooting related magazines and websites. You'll find my work at Shooting Illustrated, Concealed Carry Magazine, Tactical Retailer Magazine, Beretta USA, Guns Magazine, OutdoorHub, GunsAmerica, American Handgunner Magazine, Bearing Arms, AmmoLand, The National Shooting Sports Foundation, Grand View Outdoors, and Shooting Sports Retailer Magazine.

I help explain complicated things in a fun and easy-to-understand way. I believe that things don't have to be so complicated, although I suppose excessive techno-jargon keeps lots of well-intentioned lawyers in business.

If you want to learn about the world of guns, shooting and the American way, check out some of my books. Have a laugh or two.
