The Ruger 10/22 is one of the most iconic rifles ever produced, mostly because it was the first rifle that millions of us ever used or owned. Simple, reliable, and offering a great platform to upgrade - the classic Ruger 10/22 is just awesome! Read about it and more 10/22 models in the Best Ruger 10/22 Models!

Vortex is at the top or near the top of almost all of our lists for a good reason - they make great scopes for a fair price and are backed by an unbeatable, industry-leading warranty. Their Crossfire II Scout Scope is no exception to that rule! If we're looking for a scout scope, we normally pick the Crossfire II since it's reasonably cheap, has great eye relief, and has glass quality that is suitable for the purpose. Take a look at it and more in the Best Scout Scopes!

PSA is a solid place for basically anything related to the AR-15 platform, and their 9mm barrels are perfect for a starter or plinking build. Well priced, awesome reliability, and very durable. Read more in the Best 9mm AR-15 Barrels!

We love Bravo Company Manufacturing because their firearms are incredibly tough, reliable, and accurate. You can put the same internals into your AR-15 build with a BCM lower parts kit.

The Ruger GP100 is a DA/SA revolver that offers 10 rounds of .22 LR. The GP100 is known for its reliability and durability, and the .22 LR version is no exception. It's a rugged revolver and accurate, too! Though it is pricier than other models, it's well worth the cost! You can read more about the GP100 in our Best .22 LR Handguns.

One of our editors carries this as his CCW gun. That is a rousing endorsement! While not without its oddities, the Bersa Thunder and Firestorm in .380 ACP is highly reliable, compact, and accurate for its size. Read all about it and more in our Complete Hands-on Review!

The company that almost single handily built the Glock aftermarket, the original barrel upgrade. Still, as dependable and respected as the day it was introduced.

If you want a heavy-duty range bag that can do it all, it doesn't get better than the Eberlestock Bang Bang. This bag has a rigid basement compartment that helps it keep its shape no matter how much weight you pack inside, and we love the customizable organization panels. It just might be the last range bag you ever buy. See it in action in our guide to the Best Range Bags.

A simple compact light with several modes and a decent max brightness of 550 lumens.  Comes with a USB rechargeable battery and survived our drop and water immersion tests.  See more options at our Best EDC Flashlights.

Lightweight doesn't mean less-strong, it just means less weight. Radian Raptor LT is an outstanding example of getting this right! Hands down one of our top picks overall and by far our favorite for a lightweight build! Read more about it in our  10 Best AR-15 Charging Handles review!

The ZPAP M70 from Zastava brings everything that you need in an AK to the table. These rifles are made in Serbia and completed in the US. They feature chrome-lined barrels, forged and bulged trunnions, and optics side rails. These are rugged, built to last, and most importantly, have a nice fit and finish and overall build quality.

No go bag, range bag, or hiking bag is complete without at least one tourniquet. The North American Rescue CAT tourniquet is what the editors of PPT keep in their range bags and would trust if our life was on the line. Get the Complete Hands-on Review plus more important information!

A full review is coming soon, but if you want to build your own 10/22 clone from parts - the Brownells BRN-22 receiver is an outstanding place to start!

6x ACOGs are best suited for longer range targets, this would be at home on a DMR or hunting rifle - but not as good for an HD or CQB rifle. A literal bomb-proof optic, this is one of the kinds of kit that you can literally trust your life too - as many members of the USMC do every day. Read more about it and all the other flavors of ACOG on the market in our Best ACOG Scopes [The Ultimate Guide]!
