Bushnell Elite 1600 ARC rangefinder comes with the company's patented Angle Range Compensation (ARC) technology and a ranging performance out to 1,600 yards. The unit also has Variable Sight-in Distance (VSI) that allows shooters to set the holdover/bullet drop information for their rifle’s zero and select between 100, 150, 200 and 300 yard sight-in distances for accurate information at the push of a button. It has both bow and rifle modes, along with other handy settings for specific field uses.

Among the many innovative products designed for personal defense and tactical use at the 2011 NRA Annual Meetings in Pittsburgh, Pa., was the Uncle Mike's Reflex Holster. The Reflex is a polymer-molded concealed-carry holster with an internal retention lug that was designed to meet the challenge of performing with gross motor skill function in almost any condition.Dave Young from ARMA Training checks in from the Uncle Mike's booth with the company's new holster.

I stumbled onto a new website not long ago. The author was doing a pretty good job of evaluating the usefulness of a number of handguns that appealed to him. With an open-mind approach, he was shooting the subject pistols and revolvers in a number of different exercises, including accuracy at 25 yards and controlled pairs at 7 yards. Since I have been doing pretty much the same thing for more than 25 years, I appreciate the effort that goes into doing this, but I sometimes wonder about the precision of the information I have developed and reported over the years.
