1.7 million views and counting, my SilencerCo video

7/27/2014

As I announced on The Firearm Blog, SilencerCo last week released the first "commercially viable" shotgun suppressor called the "Salvo 12." I got a chance to shoot it a bunch and it is amazing. The video below is a demo of me unloading 9 rounds from a Benelli M2 shotgun without ear protection. It's gone viral, so check it out!
And here's a playlist of a few other videos:

Industry Masters with Team Kimber in Treasure Coast, Florida

PictureKimber's 8400 rifle in .308 with a GemTech suppressor.
The Industry Masters is an event put on by FMG Publications (Guns Magazine, American Handgunner, and others) where industry professionals get a chance to shoot guns and have a great time. Believe it or not, a lot of industry folks don't get a chance to shoot since they are working (meetings, paperwork, travel, phone calls, more meetings, dinners, closing deals, etc). So the Masters is a great time to not only shoot, but to hang out, meet new peeps, and catch up with old friends. 

I was honored to shoot with Team Kimber this year, not only do they make awesome 1911s but they are great people too! You also learn a lot at these events - I had no idea Kimber made rifles, and I got a chance to shoot a Kimber 8400 bolt action in .308 with a GemTech can. What fun!

We were sweltering in the heat and humidity of central Florida in the dead middle of summer, but it was still a great time shooting pistols, rifles, shotguns, and even throwing tomahawks at the Benchmade stage. 

This was my first time at the Industry Masters, and I can't wait to get back in 2015!


Here are some more pictures from the event.

My NRA Sharp Tech column for today is Part 1 of a three part series on lasers and guns. The first part is on a company called Next Level Training which makes a laser training pistol called the SiRT pistol. 

It is my go-to dry fire practice gun at home. You can save ammo and time spent commuting to and from the range.

You can also save 10-20% by using the discount codes listed at the end of the article at: http://nrasharp.com/columns/lasers-part-1-chris/

Women Train with AK-47s to defend the streets of Baghdad

Via CNN- Iraq is a mess. There's no other way to put it. Many men are joining the fight to combat ISIS, the active jihadist group that is trying to destabilize an already fragile Iraq. 

A mother with a 14 year old daughter who are both taking the course note ""When her father and I are at work, what is she going to do if someone comes in the house to kill them?"

It's summertime like here in the U.S. where kids are out of school for the summer. I had carefree summers, and I can't imagine having to worry about someone coming into my house to kill me and my family at any given moment. 


Watch the accompanying video here:

"We are training these ladies to make them ready if (ISIS) makes it into their neighborhood," Abdullah 
(Maj. Kareem Abdullah of the Badr Brigade) said.

"They will be the ones who have to defend their home."

Tesla Motors: An inspiration

7/1/2014

Comments

Just a few weeks ago, Tesla Motors, known for their sleek electric cars, made an amazing announcement. They basically canceled all their patents so that anyone can utilize their technology. This open source move will help encourage competition and innovation in the space. Tesla could have held onto their proprietary secrets, but as CEO Elon Musk noted in a company blog post:

"Tesla Motors was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport. If we clear a path to the creation of compelling electric vehicles, but then lay intellectual property landmines behind us to inhibit others, we are acting in a manner contrary to that goal. Tesla will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use our technology."



I'm sure there are more exciting things to come from Tesla. Even though I'm not in tech anymore doesn't mean I don't still follow and care about it. One of these days, I plan on owning a Tesla!
