Shooter Opinions brings together firsthand gear reviews and conversations with people in the shooting industry. The aim is to help readers understand how products perform, what tradeoffs matter, and the thinking behind their design.
Meet Mike Semanoff
I’m Mike Semanoff, the writer and interviewer behind Shooter Opinions. All articles on this site are my own. I’m a U.S. Army veteran who served in the 82nd Airborne Division, and I bring that experience and time in the field to my reviews and conversations.
My articles share personal observations about performance, comfort, durability, and practical tradeoffs, alongside photos and videos. In interviews, I talk with designers, competitive shooters, and other industry voices about their experience and the decisions behind their equipment.
