criminals, who are a fry or two

everyone around them is carrying.
Here’s the thing: A vest adds a bit of
flare and character, if not gravitas, to
your appearance. Through a vest on

ately go from a redneck to a renaissance
man. I probably have a half-dozen vests
I wear depending on the season — and
situation — primarily for the purpose
of hiding a gun. What I’d been missing
was a kind of all-season vest. I found the
answer with the Swift Cover Vest.
Granted, there’s no shortage of cover
vests specifically designed for concealed
carry on the market. The problem with
most is that they are designed to carry
and not hide the gun. Stick 20-some
ounces inside your vest and it becomes
cumbersome and uncomfortable.
The Barranti Leather Swift Cover
Vest was designed by a guy who car-
ries a gun, specifically for guys who
carry a gun. It’s made of rugged cotton
canvas, comes in two colors, has four
exterior and two interior pockets, and
can be had with or without a lapel. It
also has strategically placed very small
weights to help you “sweep” the vest
on the draw.
It retails for $125 and it takes about
4 weeks to get one. If you see me out
without a jacket, I’ll probably be wear-
ing it. You could assume that means
I have a gun on me, but that pretty
much applies no matter what I’m

Red Dots And MOA


Why are most dots 2-MOA in size? Which brightness setting is best?

went from a 4-MOA dot (which was
tiny for the time) to a 20-MOA dot.
Let me tell you: For a short while, I
was a monster on the stages. With a
dot that big, I was warp-speed fast on
close- to medium-range targets. But
when the distances got much past 35
yards, the dot covered the entire tar-

Well, that was real conundrum, even
at close range.
Since then I’ve paid close attention
to the size of the dot in our optics, as
well as the brightness. When the dot is

er to see it. What I found, over time,
was that almost everyone who starts
shooting with a red-dot optic runs it

it pulls your attention away from the
target and surroundings, and it insists,
“Focus on me!” If it “blooms” or shows
a star-like pattern when you aim, you
have the power turned up too much.
Unless you’re in the Southwest, or in a
sandy range on a bright day, you don’t
need to dial your power up to max.
Invariably, we find that during the
law enforcement patrol rifle classes,
when it comes time to shoot past the
50-yard square range and engage the
knock-downs out to 300 meters, of-

Final Thoughts
So, what technique works best? It de-
pends on your application of the AR.
A technique that works for military
applications might fit well with com-
petition, but it might not with defen-
sive or law enforcement use. Ultimate-
ly, using an AR properly — safely and
efficiently — is an art, and everyone’s
art is going to be different.
The equipment we use is pretty
standard, but the way we use them
is distinctly unique. The only way to
determine what works for you is to
experiment under realistic conditions.
Then you can make an educated deci-

Parting Shot
Is MantisX a replacement for live instruction? Not by a long
shot. There is no substitute for firearms training from a sea-
soned expert. But as a training tool, the piece of gun tech is
incomparable.
While it provides excellent feedback at the range, the
greatest value of MantisX is for dry-fire. An important part
of firearms training, the device and app make certain it bears
fruit. The challenge of dry-fire is knowing for certain you’re
executing each shot with the utmost precision. MantisX
verifies this trigger pull to trigger pull, making the most of
your time. After all, if you don’t train properly, what use is

MOSSBERG 590 SHOCKWAVE WITH CRIMSON TRACE LASER SADDLE


Undoubtedly the most intimidating self-defense firearm to hit the market in recent years, the Mossberg 590 Shockwave has also
become more functional: Topped with a Crimson Trace Laser Saddle, the bird’s-head pistol grip smoothbore is capable of deliver-
ing a devastating payload with surgical precision. Given that the pump-action is generally shot from the hip, the laser sight is an
incredible advantage. Fully adjustable for windage and elevation, the Saddle is intuitively activated by depressing one of three

but this combo is one of them.

STOEGER STR-9 PISTOL
Stoeger is known for its economical and effective shotguns,
but they’ve proven they’re no slouch when it comes to mak-
ing pistols. The STR-9’s 4.17-inch slide should especially turn
your head, with highly aggressive cocking serrations both fore
and aft. Beyond that, Stoeger has pieced together a spry trigger,
assertive grip texturing and a removable backstrap system that guarantees a
perfect fit, no matter your hand size. The STR-9 is also available with
w tritium night
sights, which are ideal for a home-defense gun. At 1.5 pounds, Stooeger’s 9mm most

WINCHESSTER DEFENDER
180-GRAIN 10MM AMMO
As a favorite home-defense caliber, Winchester makes certain
you have the stop pping power you expect out of your 10mm with
its newest defensive round. However, the 180-grain Defender
isn’t only engineered to meet all terminal ballistic parameters as defined by the
FBI test protocol: It also delivers devastating terminal performance, with the
jacketed hollow-point expanding on average 1.5-times its original diameter. Fur-
thermore, the solid lead core is chemically bonded to the bullet’s copper jacket,
ensuring it doesn’t break apart once it reaches its target. What this adds up to
is a round that produces a devastating wound cavity deep enough to guarantee
that you’ll neutralize nearly any conceivable threat.
MSRP: $24, box of 20

ADVENTURE MEDICAL KITS TRAUMA PAK III


It’s easy to become myopic when it comes to home defense: your gun and its
ammo. However, there’s another important facet to consider in avoiding catastrophe
— emergency medical supplies. Enter the Trauma Pak III. Designed to give you the
tools to stop massive bleeding as quickly as possible, the simple kit is a must-have
in any household. Included are a tourniquet with windlass 4-inch pressure dressing,
triangular bandage, EMT shears, permanent marker and pair of gloves ... all in a
self-contained package. At 8 ounces and priced within anyone’s budget, it’s almost

Many consider laser sights worth their weight

or one that’s interchangeable between firearms is a task.
LaserMax has all but eliminated this frustrating issue with the
Lightning Universal Laser. Designed to attach to any handgun rail
at least 1-inch in length, the aiming solution gives you a level of
flexibility generally not seen in this corner of the market. Intui-
tively, the unit’s GripSense Activation technology turns the laser

the Lightning is programmable, giving you a steady or pulsing

is, if you want to win, you

And so it is with firearms. While

That was the problem faced by Jim

decade of the 21st century, it’s difficult
to imagine just how hard and danger-

City had a violent crime rate of 540
per 100,000 inhabitants. In 1969, the
rate was 955, and by 1975 it would rise
to 1,411. In the late 1960s, the armed
robberies had an added problem: The
armed robbers, having held up a bode-
ga, were shooting the cashiers so there
wouldn’t be witnesses.
The Stakeout Squad was formed to
deal with the problem. They would

for three-shots, and the same general group size with the
Cirillo Technique, was about 0.80 seconds. My splits were
pretty pokey by competition standards — generally at 0.20
seconds — and I got the same sort of hitting percentage.
The comparison would not be entirely fair because I was
warmed up, but I did the same thing again, but this time
I went into competition mode and used the sights fully,
and I made sure every hit was an A-zone hit. The stats? My
average three-shot set was closer to 0.70, the splits were in
the upper teens and every hit was an A-zone hit.
What does this prove? That practice is more important
than anything else.

Practice Trumps All


I’ve practiced using the sights for a half-century now, firing
well over a million rounds. You could startle me out of a
deep sleep and I’d be using the sights as I came up on the
target. However, the Cirillo technique does have its uses.
But make no mistake: It, too, requires practice. As I said,
this is not point-shooting and this is not instinctive — there
is neither such a thing, and no viability to such approaches.
You have to aim, somehow, and you have to practice.
But, if you do practice this, someday you might wake
to hear a bump in the night, turn the corner and find a
bad guy at close range — so close that if you spend too
much time refining your sight picture he’ll take a couple
of steps forward and slap your muzzle aside. Instead, cover
his center with the outline of your handgun and solve the

Yes, the 9mm Luger shoots
a smaller caliber and lighter
bullet than the .45 Auto.
However, it shoots it much
faster, with much less recoil,
and 9mm handguns have a
higher capacity. Between
these two, shot placement
and bullet performance will
matter more.

Much like the shadows they cast from a terminal performance standpoint,
there’s really not much difference in the 9mm, 40 S&W or .45 Auto.
For example, a 180-grain, .308- caliber
bullet would have a SD of .271.
180 grains / 7000 (7000 grains
per pound) = .025714
.3082 (.308 x .308) = 0.094864

things” are never equal.
“Expanding” means to increase
in volume or size. Of course, it also
means to open or spread out, and
some bullets do just that. A more ap-
propriate explanation of the shape-
shifting a bullet experiences during
penetration might be “deforming,”
which is defined in physics as: to alter
the shape by pressure or stress. Bul-
lets change shape during penetration
due to the stress they encounter, and a
bullet’s resistance to this stress equals
its strength or toughness.
The toughness of a material or bul-
