Firearms and shooting sports
The Gloryfire Electronic Shooting Earmuffs are budget-oriented hearing protection that sport features found on EarPro that costs twice as much. Strikingly similar in physical appearance to Howard Light Impact Sports, their audio performance makes them more than just cheap rip-offs.

PRIZE PACKAGE Alpha
• A signed Missouri Tactical ARecoil Pad modified by me for my Sub2K Recoil Hacks video
• Missouri Tactical Picatinny Rail covers
PRIZE PACKAGE Bravo
• A signed Missouri Tactical Sub2000 Recoil Pad
• Missouri Tactical M-Lok Rail covers
A review of Missouri Tacticals grip covers, picatinny rail covers, and M-lok rail covers for the Kel-Tec Sub2000. Thanks to Missouri Tactical for supplying these samples for this review and the discount code for my viewers.
The grip cover is similar to the Hogue grips on a pistol. It takes a fair bit of strength to muscle the cover over a grip but with my Tyvek hack, it makes it a bit easier. The grip feature a palm-swell to tightly fit in your hand. The Picatinny rail and M-Lok covers help provide a firm grip on your rifle along with protection for your handguard.

For the price and features, the Lumintop TOOL AA 2.0 is the best AA EDC flashlight currently available. I put it through some performance and abuse tests to see if it lives up to that opinion.
It has 4 modes: low, medium, high, strobe, and a 650 lumen turbo mode if equipped with a 14500 LiON battery. This can use a normal AA alkaline cell to provide an output of 400 lumens.

I answer a viewer’s question with a video about the Patriot Mag Release device for the KelTec Sub2000 Gen2. I describee my problems with the California Compliant grip-fin installed on Sub2000’s sold in California. The badly written and inane gun laws in this state have mandated the addition of grip-fins on rifles which makes them less safe to fire and hold.
How well does a $30 Reflex Sight perform? Will it hold zero?
CVLife makes some of the best budget shooting accessories and optics and they sent me this model to review. Like other reflex clones, this suffers from the benefits and shortcomings of the open Reflex design: Maximum visibility but minimum protection from the environment. The original design for this generic sight was created by the Japanese company Ultradot: https://youtu.be/n6rFaTjRZjo

• NRR 29dB
• AUX 3.5mm audio port
• Bluetooth
• Phone compatible with built-in mic
Inside this box you’ll find the earmuffs, a micro-USB cable, and 3.5mm stereo audio jack, instruction manual, and a marketing promo card, and a warranty card, it has a 2-year manufacturers warranty.
Now I purchased these with the hopes that they might be a replacement for my Howard Leights. I recently did a video comparing them to Walker’s Razors. I was looking for electronic ear-muffs that had blue-tooth connectivity so that I could hear any phone calls coming through at while at the range and be able to take a call without having to take off my ear pro.
And these are bluetooth enabled ear muffs and you can sync to a phone and make and receive calls. But sadly they don’t offer the electronic ambient sound enhancement technology of Howard Leights or Razor’s. They feature what I thought might be external microphone ports but sadly they aren’t.
I tested them using this 120 decibel vaccuum cleaner. They did indeed reduce the external sound by about 29 decibels. An NRR of 29 is better than Leights or Razors 23 decibels but far short of the NRR of 34 or 39 of some non-electronic passive protective earmuffs. But they are on par with 3M work-ears and other industrial grade hearing protection that also function as audio headphones.
But as audio headphones they fall short. They aren’t as loud as my audio or gaming headphones.

Maybe it’s a family heirloom, a WW1 or WW2 battle rifle or it’s that fancy over-and-under you saved up for.
Whatever, chances are you’ve accidentally knocked it over at least once while reaching into the back of your safe for that odd box of ammo. This is why you need to store your rifles in a sock it adds enough cushion of protection that keeps it from getting scratched when two rifles knocking into each other or the side of your safe.
Containing silicone oil, these socks protect your gun from moisture as well as scratches. Available on Amazon

In my previous video, I talked about how easy it was to clean a rifle bore with a bore snake. But I wanted to clarify that I never meant to imply it was the only tool you needed to clean your firearm. Far from it. You still need to periodically do a thorough cleaning with rods, brushes, solvent, and really get in there to make sure your firearm will function reliably.
