TFB Review: Q Honey Badger 5.56 - 1 Year Later
When I visited Q in Dover New Hampshire, over a year ago, I walked out of there with one quote in my mind that I can still remember. "Nobody really minds what you're up to, as long as you're enjoying yourself," explained Nick Schaefer, an engineer who has played a key role in developing many of Q's products. This mindset affects every aspect of the team's work, ranging from brainstorming designs to assembling custom orders. Q even let me put together a Honey Badger; read that story here.
POTD: The Mk 11 and Close-Quarters Combat In King Crab Competition
Every August, the Navy's Explosive Ordnance Disposal community assembles for King Crab, a multi-day gauntlet that separates the elite from the merely excellent. This year's third iteration brought two-person teams from across the force to a California training site, where they faced a relentless cascade of challenges: underwater demolition tasks, threat assessment scenarios, long-range precision with the Mk 11, close-quarters handgun work, and the inevitable moment when a teammate goes down and the other must execute tactical combat casualty care under pressure. I’d love a shooting range like this, where distant mountains work as the backstop.
The Rimfire Report: PMAC Supernova .22LR Tracer - Plink In Color
I don’t think anyone would deny that rimfire is equally as valuable as a training cartridge as it is as a recreational one. While tracers are primarily designed for military use, most often in automatic guns, they are neither impossible to find nor illegal to purchase in the civilian world. More relevant to this series, I’ve been waiting for a long time to test out Piney Mountain Ammunition Company’s (PMAC) 22LR tracer loads , now sold under the Supernova Brand name. I’ve spent the last month or so testing out this ammunition in a variety of different 22LR firearms, and today I’ll give you my overall impressions of Piney Mountain Supernova 22LR tracers, along with some of my typical range data (velocity and accuracy), to see if this stuff is worth keeping around for some special range sessions.
The Teneta MITLA-1 Ukrainian Anti-Drone Net Launcher
Some things are developed out of necessity, under the pressure of war. Ukrainian defense company Teneta has released a disposable net launcher designed to intercept FPV drones by entangling their propellers in flight. The device addresses a specific threat vector in positional warfare where lightweight, immediately available anti-drone countermeasures carry tactical weight.
Polymer SixPAC - First Major Ammunition Packaging Revision Since WW2
The U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Armaments Center has introduced SixPAC, a polymer and steel ammunition packaging system designed to replace the wood wirebound boxes that have been standard for small-caliber munitions since World War II. The system consists of two lightweight polymer inner containers housed within a steel outer pack, initially developed for 6.8mm cartridges and planned for rollout across legacy small-caliber production lines.
