Accommodations for the NRA Convention

Posted on April 4, 2012 by Oleg Volk

This year, I decided to go to St.Louis for the NRA Convention. I will be riding with a friend, so won’t have a vehicle while in town. Need suggestions on where to stay. While I have friends in the area, they are 30-40 minutes away. Info on hotels near the convention from those who’ve been in the area before or any other ideas are welcome.

In case your KSG doesn’t hold enough ammunition…

Posted on April 4, 2012 by Oleg Volk

…bring a dozen more rounds with you on a Mesa Tactical side-saddle. If you use 3″ shells, that would be an extra full pound of launch-able lead.

Left-handed newbies

Posted on April 4, 2012 by Oleg Volk

Last thing a new shooter needs is an additional handicap of a right-handed rifle.

The same carbine works as an oversized pistol for right-handed adults. It’s good for a quarter-sized group at 25 yards.

Dragon Leather holsters ride again

Posted on April 3, 2012 by Oleg Volk

Dennis made an awesome custom holster for my friend Dot. Another friend’s 14-year-old daughter is wearing it in the photo. As you can see, a small framed teenager can be comfortable with both a PMR30 on the hip and an RMR30 in hand, enjoying their light weight and ammunition compatibility. Just the combo for a nature hike.

RFB length

Posted on April 2, 2012 by Oleg Volk

To me, the support hand placement on the 18″ variant illustrates that the version with a 24″ barrel wouldn’t be too long. The long quad forend would allow greater iron sight radius for backup, as well as a tandem placement of night vision or thermal sight with a red dot or a scope.

Keltec RFB at the range

Posted on April 1, 2012 by Oleg Volk

Jim Gilliland test-fired this RFB with 168 grain Setpoint ballistic tips and 175 grain Georgia Arms match ammunition. With 4x scope, he got roughly 1.5MOA. Last year, Mike Meador shot it with Federal Gold Match using a much higher-magnification scope and got 0.8MOA. For short-range defensive use, I think the Nightforce 1-4x and backup YHM iron sights should be enough. Viridian X5L light/laser adds another targeting method.
