Kel-Tec KSG 12

Kel-Tec KSG 12. This is a 12 gauge combat shotgun designed for today's military. It is a bullpup style loading system meaning you can have quite a long barrel, but the weapon is short enough for Close Quarters Combat. It features two magazine tubes that hold 7 shells each  and 14 in all. This is a really nice feature because you won't have to reload as often with 14 rounds at your disposal. It weighs 6.9 pounds and has an overall length of 26.1 inches. It has a very long barrel for its length because of the bullpup design. Basically the barrel extends from behind the grip to the end of the gun.


The shells are loaded behind the grip (blue) as well. Because of the dual tube system, you have to switch a small lever (red) near the loading latch to allow access to the second tube.


Because of its modern design, you can add many upgrades to it like optics, vertical grips, different length barrels, higher capacity magazines, and lasers/flashlights.

Kimber 1911 Eclipse II

My favorite pistol is probably the 1911. But, my favorite 1911 that I have ever shot is a Kimber 1911. The version I shot was the Kimber Eclipse II 2005 NRA Gun of the Year. It is a very crisp 1911 with almost no slide wobble. Its trigger is quite crisp as well and as with all 1911s, it is extremely accurate. For example, when my brother was shooting, he hit a man sized target at 100 yards which is almost unheard of with any .45 ACP pistol.


To me, the only bad thing with a 1911 is its ammo capacity. With only 7 rounds, the fun only lasts a short while. But with the low ammo capacity comes a very slim and comfortable feeling gun.

Because of this slim slide, it can easily be concealed without any detection. As you can see its slide is just under one inch wide.

Assassin's Creed III Review

As my first blog post, I want to share a game that i have recently played. Now, I don't play a lot of video games, but i do enjoy them quite a bit. The most recent that i have played is Assassin's Creed III. Now I haven't played Assassin's Creed before except for just watching other people play but this is the first time I have actually got into it and played it. I am around 15% done with the campaign and I have been playing as Conner for a little while. It is quite fun going around hunting animals with your hatchet and bow, but I think it quite funny when it shows the scene he skins an animal that it just shows him stabbing it with quite a lot of force. One other thing, after he skins the animal, he leaves the carcass behind instead of using everything from it like a Native American would do.
Even though there are some "realistic" problems with this game, it's not big enough to dislike it. The graphics on this game are pretty good, but about average, which is explainable. The reason Assassin's Creed doesn't have as good of graphics as other third person action/adventure games is because it has such an open game area/map style. Basically you can do whatever you want for example; killing British Soldiers, scaling walls, buildings and towers, stealing and pick pocketing people, and all of the side missions like playing small games, and interacting with people and animals. To me, i'm glad i bought this game and it's worth it, so if you haven't played it and want to, then it won't be a waste of time.
