NRA Show 2012: Introducing the Vortex Razor HD Gen II 1-6x24 Riflescope

If you looked around at the optics tables around the NRA Show in St. Louis, you'd guess that 2012 is the year of 1-6x power scopes, and you'd probably be right. Vortex gave me a look at its brand new Vortex Razor HD Gen II 1-6x24 riflescope, a scope designed with competition in mind. Vortex's HD glass is some of the best on the market, offering a crystal clear view, and working with Jerry Miculec certainly doesn't hurt when it comes to making this scope the best it can possibly be.

The Vortex Razor HD is a true 1x power scope with a 115-plus-foot field of view, and features a JM-1 BDC reticle in a 30mm tube. The turrets offer 50 MOA per rotation, and these tactile, zero-resettable turrets make traveling with them so much easier. The Vortex Razor HD will be available this fall and will retail around $1,700, but may sell for as low as $1,399.

The physical, aural and visual feedback that airsoft training offers is more engaging than dryfire practice. The following list includes the gear and target arrangement that I've been using to practice at home. I've also added a number of drills that I've adapted from live-fire training to build certain skills applicable to personal defense.

I would have been satisfied if the Tech Sights only benefit making quick work of sight adjustments, but they did much more than that. They improved my sight picture and accuracy, making them a must-have upgrade for this great rimfire.

Pocket-Pistol Carry Tips and Tricks

Pocket carry, as a method of concealed carry for a defensive firearm, can be a practical option when done right. This is especially true during the colder months when heavy outer garments can obstruct access to a traditional waistline holster.
