I wrote a short piece comparing a civilian Sabre Defence XR15 and a military M16A2 published in Shotgun News. It will be on the newsstands soon!

USAR shooting team on Shooting USA!

Kudos to the USAR Service Rifle team for getting air time on Shooting USA

SGT Kristoffer Friend, USAR Service Rifle team member, won the President's Match. Unfortunately, Jim Scoutten, the show's host, incorrectly reported him as being a member of the AMU.

I sent Mr. Scoutten a note about this. Hopefully, he will acknowledge and correct this oversight.

Some facts (and made-up stuff) about me:

• Small arms instructor in the US Army Reserve with the Small Arms Readiness Group
• On active duty since 2003
• Member of the USAR Shooting Team
• Multiple first-place wins at the All Army Small Arms Championships and AFSAM (Armed Forces Skills at Arms Meeting)
• Multiple classifications at “Master” level
• NROI-certified Range Officer
• Bachelor of Science, Management Computer Systems

Currently I’m on active duty (again) and I’m plodding ever so slowly at completing the following:

• Firearm User Network - web application for supporting marksmanship practitioners and their guilds
• Book and DVD publishing
• Freelance writing and photography
