Bushnell has continued its trend of providing advanced optics for the cost-conscious shooter with the Fusion 1600 ARC. In addition to having many of Bushnell's standard features—multi-coated optics, anti-reflective coatings, RainGuard HD hydrophobic lens coating, rubber armor and waterproof construction—the 1600 ARC provides accurate distance out to 1,600 yards for less than $1,000.

I must confess that when the AmericanRifleman.org folks approached me to provide my insight on "Top Shot," I was a little bit hesitant. I'm really not a TV kind of guy, but they persisted. I guess my take is somewhat akin to a kid in Willy Wonka's factory—there's a ton of stuff happening that looks cool, but I have no idea what it does so please take any views offered with a basketball-size grain of salt. What has been interesting is the way the show has gotten bigger and better, and how it has brought many non-shooters into the fold. I've talked to a lot of people who've seen the show and want to go shooting as a direct result. So, if you have a similar encounter, please take the time to show them just how safe, satisfying and challenging our hobby can be.

The next Top Shot will soon emerge, and if it’s anything like last season, it will happen with a really big bang. But, of course, two more contestants will have to be sent packing before we know who will be shooting in the final challenge.

While some shooters have an all-around gun for both concealed-carry and home defense, I prefer to have separate handguns for specific purposes. While there is nothing wrong with having one gun for both—this ensures you know this handgun intimately—I favor my home-defense gun to be set up exactly how I want without having to attach or remove accessories when I arrive or leave home. This also allows me to secure my home-defense firearm in the same location at all time.
