BreachBangClear Explains Parallax

by Matt • June 16, 2016

When I used to be smart and was studying astrophysics, I understood how parallax calculations were used to judge vast distances in space. As a photographer, I spend most of my time dealing with some level of lens distortion while taking pictures. Fast forward to utilizing firearms and you find that parallax comes into play […]

Ahhh, Hypocrisy! Welcome Back!

by Matt • May 24, 2016

If you’ve followed my stuff for a while, you know that I can tend to be a bit outspoken about protecting artists rights, especially when it comes to copyright. I’ve stood on more than one soapbox, had a LOT of discussions with folks (and peers) with dissenting opinions, and have come to the conclusion that […]

Here’s How To Lose History by Being Stubborn

by Matt • May 9, 2016

My grandfather Buck was born in 1922. That makes him 94 this year. He is still going strong, or so I hear. You see, I haven’t spoken to him in over 15 years, and I know I never will again. As far back as I can remember, I viewed my grandfather as a near mythical […]

What We Can Learn from Panteao’s Screw Up

by Matt • February 8, 2016
When this whole incident about Travis Haley vs. Panteao Productions, and the "Did he or did he not ND?" drama began late last week, I started working on a post about it all, but I wanted to see if more facts emerged. I watched the meme's come out, the edited videos, the responses both from [...]

Video of the Week: “MultiCam: One Man Against the SCORE International Baja 1000”

by Matt • February 4, 2016

  It’s all about the story. Every. Single. Time. That’s why we were stoked to come across this video put out by MultiCam® (yes, that MultiCam®) and their coverage of the story of former Special Operations veteran Jeff Benrud. You see, Benrud decided to take on the 48th SCORE International Baja 1000 by himself. No […]

Depression: Not Giving In to the Dark Side

by Matt • January 31, 2016

I don’t consider myself an entrepreneur. I think that is an overused term for anyone that has a good idea. I know true entrepreneurs and they are at a different level than most folks. I am a small business owner that at any given time is searching for ways to improve the business, grow, learn, […]


SHOT SHOW 2016 Photo Recap

by Matt • January 26, 2016

Last week was SHOT SHOW 2016 – the end-all-be-all in product displays for the gun industry. For most of the week I was shooting pictures and writing articles for both RECOIL and Breach Bang Clear, so I put Firelance slightly off to the side. Rightly so, as it was an opportunity that I could not […]
