1. Protect Your Suppressor
If you’re going to celebrate the end of the suppressor tax by getting yourself one, consider protecting it with Modern Spartan Systems’ Suppressor Shield pre-treatment kit. The system is a bit time-consuming to apply, given the necessary phases of applying three products, but it pays dividends by creating a low-stick barrier inside, preventing fouling and making future cleanings easier.

2. A Higher-Capacity Portable Safe
When it comes to portable firearms safes, you sometimes need more than you often find available. This Hornady Rapid Safe 4800KP lets you carry two full-sized 1911-style pistols in what still seems to me to be a fairly compact package. We can sing all the usual praises for Hornady safes with these as well, from the heavy-duty steel construction and other security measures to the RFID technology that means you can use your watchband, key fob or sticker to open it (in addition to the usual methods of code or key).

3. A Simple Handgun Sleeve
A wonderful range bag is a wonderful thing, but sometimes it’s way more than you need. I like these simple neoprene Sentry Handgun Go Sleeves for the grab-and-go times. They come in three sizes and have a sturdy zipper with a nice, oversized loop attachment so you don’t have to fidget with a tiny pull tab, plus a simple divider in the middle creates two compartments.
