Why would I know anything about POI shift? I work as a Ballistics Engineer and pro shooter. I spend a lot of time on ranges firing a variety of weapons. Not only do we conduct firings for new developments but also proof production runs for accuracy. This allows me to gather a lot of data……
Ruike M51 Multifunction Knife
Previous to my dalliance with the Ruike M51 I had a yearning for multifunctional knives. At 9yrs old I was already the proud owner of a slip joint pen knife emblazoned with Disney’s Goofy on the scale.

Nextool Dino Bone Tactical Pen

Scope Mounts.

It surprised me that popular demand hasn’t prompted the sequel “Look who’s torqueing”.. Anyway I digress.. Scope mounts…. We all spend a hell of a lot of money……
