Shooting gear: optics, clothing, footwear and accessories

What shooting gear does ShootingUK cover?

Good kit matters. It doesn’t guarantee a better shot, but the wrong gear at the wrong moment is a distraction nobody needs — and with optics, clothing and accessories representing serious money, getting the decision right matters too.

ShootingUK’s gear section covers everything except the guns themselves: scope and optics reviews, shooting clothing and footwear, gun slips and cases, cartridge tests, bipods, moderators, rangefinders, gun safes, hearing protection and accessories. New product launches are covered as they happen, and buying guides cut through the options when the choice is genuinely complicated.

Everything is tested in the field by shooters who use the equipment for the purpose it was designed for — not on a desk, not from a press release.
