I did attempt to get this article out a week ago. That didn’t happen.. why? Because SHOT Show plague.. If you have no clue what I am talking about I will explain all in this article. Although I will mention some companies and items I saw this is more about attending SHOT in general and……
What happened to my powder? REACH Compliance
As some of you may be aware Varget is becoming increasingly hard to source in Europe. In fact many popular propellants are rapidly turning into unicorns. So what’s the deal? Is this just another drought which reloaders can ride out? Unfortunately it may be a little more permanent for the European market. Reach compliance might……
GnZ attends Enforcetac/IWA Germany
During the first week of March I was lucky enough to attend Enforcetac and IWA. For those of you that haven’t heard of these shows I should probably explain them. Enforcetac is an invite only event which takes place just before IWA. Enforcetac is aimed specifically toward law enforcement and military. IWA is easier to……
Shooting glasses – Swisseye Nighthawk vs Bolle Raider.
Glasses were not widely used when I began shooting in the 1980s. Of course there were those who needed to wear prescription glasses but as a safety item they were largely disregarded.

Maritime Knights, protectors of British Industry.
In order to support the maritime security industry, firearms competence course sprung up. As a Civilian marksman and journalist, I was invited to observe one such course. Perhaps I could demystify the activities of the MSO’s and their expert trainers.
More Practical Shotgun @Phoenix 8/3/15
Just a few videos of todays outing to the fantastic Phoenix practical shotgun club in Sussex.
I am slowly improving, my reloading times are way to slow. Overall I was very pleased with the mornings performance as I cleared 20 targets in one……
The trend of “tactical’.
The word tactical is everywhere at the moment in the firearms industry. However it is a word that generates controversy for a variety of different reasons. Why has “tactical” become so popular? What does it even mean? This article aims to shed some 850 lumen, aircraft grade aluminium, LED light on the subject…
Long range shooting for beginners 8 – long range at the range..
After a rather mundane bit with maths and tables we now get to have some serious fun. This is the day we have been working towards – shooting out to 1000+ yds. For some of you competitive long range veterans that may seem like no big deal. For many (myself included) who have spent years……
