RECOIL Issue #30

Ah, spring. While those in northern climes are still suffering the last frigid blasts from Mother Nature, the rest of us are blowing the dust off guns and gear that have been underused these past few months. I’m gearing up for the first major match of the three-gun season, (and using some interesting guns — watch this space for details) staffers are heading off to test night vision and suppressors in Wyoming, we’ve got a new RECOIL vehicle build in the works, and there’s exciting events afoot in both CONCEALMENT and RECOIL OFFGRID. Looking a little further down the road for 2017, we’re scheduling wilderness trips for the fall, which should give you an idea of what’s next in the pipe for our little media empire.

As this issue hits the shelves, our team will be headed to the NRA annual meetings in Atlanta to bring you news from the convention. If you’re attending, then please say hi if you see any of us wandering the aisles, and if you can’t make the trip this year, well there’ll be plenty of coverage from the show floor on our social media and video platforms. Oh, and if you haven’t already, please consider supporting Adam Kraut, our pick for the NRA board.

Thanks to your guys’ support, we’re going to continue to push the boundaries of firearms publishing. While we may not always get it right, the alternative of playing it safe and doing the same old thing that everyone else does ain’t going to fly. We’ll count on you to call us out when we get it wrong, and we’ll always look for new and creative ways to screw up. See you on the range. Check out RECOIL Issue 30.
