Remington 870 All Kitted Up

Lipstick on a pig
Every good gun collection should have at least one shotgun in it. Why not an 870? The Remington 870 is one of the most common pump-action shotguns out there with no end of accessories, add-ons, and upgrades. You can find a version of your liking a lot easier than finding ammo for your AR-15 these days. Versions vary from traditional wood furniture to camo'd up duck slayers. I picked this one up more than a year ago and began to kit it up.

Truglo Fiber Optic Sights for Glock

A great upgrade to the already great gun is a set of TruGlo fiber optic sights. Fiber optic sights are a useful add-on that helps draw the eye to the sights for accurate shot placement by focusing light into a single round point. What's better than fiber optic sights alone is combining them with self-illuminating tritium, the same stuff in military equipment used in low light conditions.

Glock 40 S&W Barrel Conversions

9mm, 357 Sig, and 40 S&W
Having the diversity of calibers and barrel configurations for the AR-15 rifle makes it an excellent rifle that can be employed to take a variety of creatures. Similarly, some Glock pistols support different calibers, too. Glocks chambered in .40 S&W can reliably shoot both .357 Sig and 9mm ammunition. It's a great day when you have a gun that can shoot more than one caliber.

Glock Trigger Upgrades by Zev Technologies

One of the most routine of upgrades for any gun is a drop-in trigger. Since Glock pistols are so common it goes without saying that aftermarket upgrades would be available. Zev Technologies makes a great Fulcrum drop-in trigger for Glocks.  My recent trigger upgrades were in my Glock 19, 23 and 21. Each one was a little different because of caliber and since the fact that the 19 is a Gen4; the 23 is a Gen3; and the 21 is a short frame (SF).
