A girl can't go wrong with something in basic black, like an AR-15.

0:17.3

Some things never go out of style, like Tom Gresham's Gun Talk.

0:24.3

You know, I don't think you can have any more fun than this.

0:27.0

We're at the Shots show in Las Vegas, and we're surrounded by guns and accessories and stuff.

0:32.6

And we're just having a good time talking to a bunch of our friends.

Tom Munson has just come by to visit us from TrichCon. And Tom, you brought goodies. I mean, some serious goodies this year. Yes, sir. You got new stuff, don't you? I think that lead-in was talking about equipping stuff on an AR-15, right? Yeah, yeah. So we've got some stuff to go on an AR-15.

Okay.

1:43.1

So it allows the user to adjust it. There's seven visible

settings. There's three night vision settings. And in between each setting is off. So you're only

1:51.1

one click away from turning the battery off. And you might just talk about the fact that it's,

1:57.0

if I remember, is that just a single double A battery? Single AA battery should last between two to three years.
