It’s true — you can go crazy buying accessories for your firearms. There are so many products that you may or may not need, it can be hard to know exactly what to purchase. If you get lured in every time a shiny new gun product comes out, you might just go broke or end up with a bunch of worthless stuff that you aren’t going to use. So it can be hard to tell what you really need.
Here’s a look at five gun accessories that you might need which we have found to be extremely useful in gadgets, gear, or gizmos.
A Better Range Bag
If you are throwing your range gear into an old school backpack, you are missing out on a seriously better accessory. An effective range bag that can safely carry your firearm, extra ammo, eye and ear protection, tools, and anything else you might need for the shooting range is important. A great company to try that’s affordable is Osage Range River Bags. They make the bag in a standard size (18x13x10), and a “light-duty” (13.5×10.5×7.5). It comes in six different colors, if you care about that kind of style, and is made of durable 600D ballistic nylon. This bag will protect your gear with nine compartments to hold all of your stuff the right way. This means no more unsafe searching through an ordinary backpack when you are outfitted with Osage.
Cooler Targets
Are you tired of hitting basic bullseye targets? Go for something cooler with Triumph’s Systems Threat Down Bleeding Zombie Targets. You can pretend the zombie apocalypse is here! These paper targets actually give you visible feedback of what body part you hit on the target. The “blood” is actually an environmentally safe gel that turns red for the brain and heart, and blue for the lung areas. It’s reactive fun for the whole family that is truly addictive to use at the shooting range.
High-Tech Hearing Protection
Keeping your hearing as you age is vitally important. If you are skimping on ear protection on the shooting range, you are doing yourself a huge disservice. That’s why the ideal hearing protection is the one you’ll actually wear. The Howard Leight Impact Pro is protection of 30 dB, but you’ll still be able to hear around you, and they are comfortable to have on all day long.
Multi-Fit Holster
Are you annoyed with having so many different holsters lying around for all the different types of guns you own? That’s why having a multi-fit holster is so handy. The Blackhawk Omnivore Multi-Fit Holster is able to hold 150 styles of semi-automatic handguns. Reaching for one holster is a lot easier than digging through a bunch of them.
A Sturdy Belt
If you are still attaching your holster to a worn out belt, it’s time to upgrade. The Daltech Force Bull Hide Leather Belt is a CCW belt that comes in black or brown. It’s a thick leather that won’t sag or fold over from the weight of your gun.
