Hey dudes. I've been wanting to do this for a while since Hammertime first lent me his PPQ to review a long time ago. I really enjoyed getting a pistol that I had no money tied in and doing a test. Me not having spent money on it gives me a chance to be critical if there's something I don't like. My testing style has changed/improved recently and I know that people like to hear where a gun falls short rather than placing it on an infallible pedestal.

If you would like me to review your handgun, post here and let me know what you've got. I will take care of your gun and respect it as if it were my own. You will receive it back from me in squeaky clean condition. If you are around the BR area or dropping in for a visit, we can arrange something.

I would really enjoy reviewing an FN or a CZ of some kind since I haven't had the chance to shoot one extensively. Other offers are also appreciated.

If you have access to land within an hour of BR that I could shoot on without disturbing deer/hunters, I would be happy to work out a deal. I hate having to spend $15 at Precision every time I visit to just do static shooting. I would rather do some run and gun with your pistol to get a better idea of how it handles.

Also know that I really appreciate everyone who gives my channel views and shows me support. Since joining the OB, I can't think of a better place to kill time with like-minded individuals.

Anyway, cheers OB.

EDIT: TL/DR - If you want me to review your gun, tell me what you have and if you're close to BR.

Review my Glock 19 at the mud pits with CL and I

Wait...no review needed for the glock 19, it is God's pistol if he had one.


I've been working on CL to get back out to the pits soon but he keeps saying "hunting season" as the reason he cant. That bitch has hunted once this year

I have a stippled XDM 5.25 40 that I would love for someone else to shoot. I have 2 free Precision range cards as well (take them, I never go). I am in BR.

Bullshite. The inspiration for the 1911 was handed down to John Moses Browning by God himself.

Yea he claims he's busy from this thing called "work." I think it's a crock of crap.

I like this idea. I have yet to shoot an XDm extensively.

Shoot me an email when you get the chance.

On a related note, if anyone has any ammo they want me to review I would be more than happy.

I will respect it and treat it as my own and report the findings once the last round is fired.

I'm really interested in trying out some of this .22, 5.56, and 7.62x39 I keep hearing about.

Contact me below for pickup.

This is true.

And it was perfected/updated, again by G-d's Grace in the Sig P220.

bapple, if I can give you my wishlist


FN 5.7 or .45 - FN isn't for me, but I do think they're interesting pistols, and the potential for the 5.7 is incredible, they just make junk ammunition


Colt or S&W Revolvers - haven't seen you do any



Any made to conceal weapon - little pocket rugers, officer .45s, walthers, etc.


good luck, will definitely watch whatever it is

As of now, I'm meeting with Rabbit to do his XDm40 5.25. But there are a lot of other great offers out there. Each time I do a review I'll pop back in here to do another.

Thanks a bunch for the suggestions guys. And if you have any constructive criticisms for my channel, I'm always down to improve so just let me know.
