May Staff Picks: From Tactical Toys to Long-Range Tools
This month’s Staff Picks are a real mix—from high-end long-range optics like the DNT TheOne, to compact prismatics and fun tactical gear like the TC68 paintball marker. Karl’s all about the out-of-the-box performance of the EPIC TWO LITE, while Tee’s gone for the versatile Immersive Optics 5x30 Pro. As always, no fluff—just gear we genuinely rate. Curious? Take a look and see what our team is loving this May.

Still waiting on the Lyra K Kit? So are we. With delays pushing it to June (maybe), we built something— Meet the Reximex Lyra Kit: full-size, better looking, proper barrel threading, and actually in stock. Ideal for teens and adults, it’s smarter, sleeker, and cheaper than the K. Why wait for something that may not turn up? Grab yours now and skip the drama.
