Synopsis of a Gun Fit

Text size

Just another satisfied customer who had the courage to let me cut on his stock. Storm, along with Dan Paxon in Carolina have both recently begun to shoot guns with the OSP stock dimension on them. Both of them have been blown away by how well they are centering the targets and smoking targets with mod chokes. Read on and enjoy.

Huge Advancements in Hearing Enhancement Technology

Oh, and by the way, we just returned from a meeting with a hearing aid manufacturer in Chicago, and man, do we have a lot to talk about.

The hearing in our left ears was a little worse than our right due to being the closest ear to the muzzle blast, but still well within normal range.
