Lighten Your Load: Streamlight TL-Racker
One of the only drawbacks to a pump-action shotgun is that it requires two hands to run, which makes handling a flashlight a lot more challenging. The TL-Racker from Streamlight is an economical solution to this problem, replacing the forend of your Mossberg, Remington or Winchester with an integral 1,000-lumen light.

Streamlight TL-Racker
It is capable of momentary and full-on activation and runs on the same CR123s batteries that your EDC flashlight probably does.
It is available at your local gun shop or at Streamlight.com.
MSRP: $225
Ryker Calf Sleeve
Ankle carry is a classic go-to for a lot of armed professionals — for deep concealment as well as for backup units.
This model from Ryker Concealment addresses the issues of bulk and discomfort with what the company refers to as a “concealed carry sleeve” — a latex-free neoprene holster that affixes around the calf rather than simply the ankle.

Ryker Calf Sleeve
It is perforated, breathable and sized to fit most adults, and you can purchase one at RykrConcealCarry.com.
MSRP: $24.99

Federal X2 Personal Defense Buckshot
Federal’s test of these loads gave them pattern sizes of 4.5 inches at 7 yards out of an improved cylinder choke and penetration into ballistic gel of 5.25 to 14.5 inches.

Federal X2 Personal Defense Buckshot
While that may sound like nothing out of the ordinary, the projectiles are; picture a shell containing not nine pellets of traditional buckshot but rather split-shot sinkers.
What this accomplishes is the pellets spitting when they hit their target, resulting in additional wound channels and reduced chance for over-penetration.
You can learn more at FederalPremium.com and find them at your local retailer.
