Loaded with customizations and modifications, check out this up-close introduction to the Handl Defense Dodge Ram 2500 Truck.

Handl Defense is probably best known for their development of the SCAR25, the first SR-25/M110 magazine compatible; billet aluminum lower upgrade for the SCAR-17. An innovative pioneer in the development and design of small arms systems for both commercial and government applications, their expertise is the result of over 150 years of combined experience in small arms design, development and manufacturing. However, it’s not the innovative development of firearms we’ll be looking at this time… today we’ll be looking at the Handl Defense Dodge Ram 2500 Truck.

A few weeks ago we had the opportunity to hang out at the range with Alan Handl where we were introduced to this tough looking tactical rig for the first time. He’s made a lot of customizations to the truck, which looks and runs lean and mean. Here’s a run down of the details:
Make: Dodge RAM
Year: 2012
Model: 2500
Motor: 6.7L Cummins

AR platform rifles have become almost a commodity in recent times. Given their popularity, enthusiasts now have access to a virtually endless array of component and accessory options. At the 2014 Shot Show I found a company that has taken AR personalization to the next level. Unique-ARs is a family owned company based in Idaho that has combined their love of shooting with their talents in design and artistic machining.
