A hunting buddy and I were sitting in the bed of my pick-up, glassing a winter wheat field for deer, using binos, and then zooming in with my new 15-45X60 Riton spotter. We didn't see any deer, but we did have about 500 Honkers drop in for a snack. That quickly changed our morning plans from...
I had a nice morning hunt in N. TX. A buddy lets me jump tanks on his Longhorn Ranch. I am using my Riton Optics 5 Primal 10X42 ED Bino, an early Christmas present to myself. I chose them because of how light they are to carry and their low light visibility. I glassed a tank that had a few...
I finally got out to take a pic. I have 3 JP Enterprises rifles, and all are very accurate. Even the 9mm Carbine I have shoots great, especially 75 yards and in. This rifle has taken a lot of pigs. Usually, my son snatches it up before I can, but now that he's stationed in Germany, I finally get...
It will be sitting on a JP -15 rifle. This 5.56 is capable of sub-MOA accuracy all day long and has never given me a problem. I shoot it suppressed 90% of the time. Putting a new Riton 5 Tactix 1-10X24 scope on it will help my older eyes while still letting me compete in local carbine...

If you look around there are some deals to be had on a new ATN ThOR 4 and their new lite version without all the extras but still excellent thermal properties is around a grand. Check out OP and 1800guns for a discount. I have the ThOR 4 384 4.5-18 and love it. So far I have used it 3 nights on...
