XLR Industries Evolution Precision Rifle Chasis System

It’s one thing to gawk at the Evolution system on XLR’s website, and another thing entirely to pull the stock out its box just a few weeks after placing the order. The first hands-on experience almost makes you wonder if there was some mistake. It’s just hard to believe you’re actually getting this much stock for this little price!

Kyle told us he “wanted to build a top quality chassis that is affordable; I believe in shooter first, business second.” It looks like they’ve accomplished their objective.

Wilson Combat 100 Year Anniversory 1911 Pistol

Wilson Combat® will celebrate the 100th anniversary of the gun that helped build our company and the American genius that invented it, John Moses Browning.
The “Contemporary Classic” 1911
Browning was the greatest firearms designer the world has ever known and the 1911 handgun is arguably his best effort. Designed in a time when electricity was still new and automobiles were a rare sight- the 1911 is a true engineering masterpiece that has not only withstood the test of time, but also evolved into what many consider the ultimate fighting pistol.

ATACS Cammo Oregon Hydrographics

We took our Desert Tactical Arms SRS and Bushmaster ACR and let Mike have his way with them. When we got them back they looked very different. Our SRS went from OD Green to Tiger Stripe Green.

In case you are worried about your firearm going through the ‘hydro’ part of this, as we were at first with about $11,000 worth of firearms going through the process, be assured that Mike knows what he’s doing and he knows firearms! We checked closely for any signs that our bores had been fowled and we checked the other working parts of our guns to ensure that everything still moved freely and worked properly.
