What optics should you put on your AR-15?

We're going to answer that right now with Pete Shryer from Vortex Edge and Vortex Optics.

This gun talk nation is brought to you by Colt, Meper Light, Walther, and Loophold.

Welcome into gun talk nation. We are back with another one,

and this one's going to be fun because on the show this week,

we've got Pete Shryer from Vortex Edge. Pete, welcome in.

Hey, thank you, Ryan.

So Vortex, I mean, people know Vortex Optics, but take them in and explain Vortex Edge.

So Vortex Edge is kind of our training division. We're situated down here on the range,

and we offer shooting classes that are open to the public. Anybody's invited,

military police, private citizens, one of our mantras down here is shooting,

is shooting. We're going to teach you how to shoot fast, teach you how to shoot accurate,

and these are all things that can be applied for a lot of different situations,

where it's competitive shooting, just for fun, or if you need to use it for self-defense,

or if you're a police officer in the line of duty. So yeah.

Very cool. Yeah, I actually got to go up. What's that?

I was just going to say, I got to go up and visit you guys at Vortex Edge in December.

Fantastic facility. How long has it been around?

So the facility itself started in 2018.

Started out with two ranges, the 50 and the 100. About two years later, we expanded. We added a

25 yard range, a test range, indoor shoot house, that we can use siminiations in,

and a virtual system. So yeah, the current configuration we've had set up for about three years now.
