Review on the Fiddle Master violin case from Savior Equipment. This unique rifle / SBR case has a solid hook and loop system, 4 latches including two of them having TSA approved locks, a beefy carry and most important the discreet nature of the case makes it look like a violin case.
In this review we talk about food preparations from Valley Food Storage. This convenient 70 serving kits includes 6 entrees, 3 breakfast, 1 vegetable, 1 fruit, and a storage bucket.

High end ar500 target system from Range Time / AR500 Target Systems. Solid 20×30 base with feet to dig in the ground, sturdy 2×4 split tubing for the frame, easy to dissemble, easy lock systems keep the target in place, with a secure hostage target that sits behind the silhouette.
This grip module from Icarus Precision for the Sig Sauer P365 X-Macro is sensational, amazing, magical, perfection! The grip texture has been improved compared to previous Icarus grips, aggressive mag-well, double trigger undercut, ambi thumb rest, and a standard 1913 rail. Hands down this Icarus Precision grip is the best upgrade for any Sig Sauer P365.
My review on the Sightmark Optic Mini Shot M-Spec Reflex Pistol Sight. A few months ago I reviewed a Sightmark rifle optic and it wasn’t a great optic but I need to give Sightmark credit. They reached out and professionally asked me if I wanted to review the Mini Shot M-Spec pistol RDS. Overall the optic held up much better than I expected.
These weather proof bags from Vulcan Arms are dope! Between the rubber like nylon exterior and the sealed zippers these bags can sit in the rain or be submerged under water for a bit without any water getting into the bags. Obviously keep your gear dry is key to keeping your firearms running smooth.

SIG Sauer P365 X-MACRO COMP — Big Firepower, Compact Footprint
In the world of concealed carry and high-performance pistols, the SIG Sauer P365 X-MACRO COMP stands out as a game-changer. Combining full-size capacity with a macro-compact design, this pistol gives shooters more: more rounds, more control, more adaptability — without sacrificing the concealability so many demand.
What Makes the P365 X-MACRO Stand Out
17+1 Round Capacity in a Slim Frame — One of the biggest selling points is the P365 X-MACRO packs a 17-round magazine (plus one in the chamber) into a slim 1.1-inch thick grip module. That’s full-size capacity in something much easier to carry.
Integral Compensated / Optic-Ready Slide — Depending on the model (COMP version or the regular MACRO version), you can get an integrated compensator that helps reduce muzzle flip and improve follow-up shot speed. The slide also is optic ready, and it comes with standard rails for accessories.
Interchangeable Backstraps & Enhanced Ergonomics — SIG includes small, medium, and large backstraps so you can tailor the grip to your hand size. The grip texture and overall feel also work to improve retention and control.
Specs At A Glance
Grip Module Width: ~1.1 in (slim profile)
Barrel: ~3.1-inch (for COMP version) or longer (non-compensated version) depending on variant
Sights: XRAY3 Day/Night Steel Sights are standard.
Magazines: Ships with two 17-round steel mags with high-visibility followers.
Pros & Advantages
High Capacity + Carryable Size — The sweet spot of “concealable but capable” is what many were waiting for. The X-MACRO gives much of the firepower of a compact or duty gun in a package that can still be worn daily.
Reduced Recoil / Improved Follow-Up Shots — In the COMP model, the integral compensator helps manage muzzle rise so that the shooter can more quickly get back on target for follow-ups.
Customization & Versatility — With interchangeable backstraps, rails for accessories, and the optic ready slide, users can adapt the X-MACRO for different roles: EDC (Everyday Carry), home defense, maybe even competition.
Drawbacks & Things to Consider
Holster and Concealment Trade-Off — While still slim compared to many 17-round pistols, the grip height and magazine baseplate are larger than more traditional micro-compacts. Concealment will require selecting the right holster and carry method.
Magazine Spring & Cost — Loading the 17th round can be a workout, and replacement mags are premium-priced. If you want multiple magazines for training and carry, expect some investment.
Compensator Loudness Indoors — For the compensator version, shooting in enclosed ranges or indoor spaces may be louder or more uncomfortable. Hearing protection is a must.
Who Should Get the X-MACRO COMP
If you’re someone who wants a high capacity 9mm pistol but need a more compact footprint than a typical full-size duty gun, the X-MACRO is a strong candidate. Concealed carriers who can manage grip length, shooters who want optics and accessory capability, or those looking for a multi-role pistol (carry + range + home defense) will get a lot from this firearm.
If you’re mostly shooting indoors or prioritize ultra-minimal carry, then maybe something smaller or with fewer rounds is a better fit.
Final Thoughts
The SIG Sauer P365 X-MACRO COMP pushes the boundaries of what a concealed carry pistol can be: full capacity, enhanced controllability, and solid ergonomics, all while maintaining a slim profile. It’s not perfect, but for many shooters, the trade-offs are well worth it. If you’re in the market for something that blends firepower and carryability, this one deserves serious attention.
The Olight Arkfeld…I really dislike Olight but it’s a unique light. The flat nature make it very comfortable in the pocket but the controls are weird and the laser pointer is silly.

Comparing two of the best budget friendly LPVOs, the Primary Arms SLX 1-8 and the Swampfox Arrowhead 1-8. They are both a solid choice for less expensive optic but they do have a few pros and cons.
