Bear & Son cutlery has been known for making solid edge-holding knives for quite some time now. While they deliver everything that you would expect in a quality blade, their products typically come at a price. Not wholly numb to this, the company has set out to add a few more budget-friendly offerings to the…
Times are tough when you can’t find .40 S&W on the shelves, yet here we are. This snappy little cartridge has always been the answer for those who want to carry 9mm-sized handguns yet need a bit more punch. Although the resurgence of 10mm Auto has nearly put this round in the grave, there are…
While we spend plenty of time and effort preparing for two-legged threats, we have to ask ourselves, are we prepared for larger four-legged beasts? Truth be told, I feel that I am more likely to have an encounter with an angry black bear or mountain lion than I am a home invasion, so I like…
John Moses Browning (AKA The Prophet) is responsible for nearly every advancement in modern firearms. Even to this day, many of his designs are still essentially unchanged from their initial specs. His 1911 is the most familiar of these inventions and, of course, the authoritative .45 ACP cartridge that it fires. While practice ammo is…
In a world where carrying a gun at a festival is frowned upon, it’s nice to see an event where you are not only allowed to have one, but it’s encouraged. Yes, I’m talking about the Rod of Iron Freedom Festival located in Greeley, Pennsylvania, where I had the opportunity to attend the 4th annual…
Carrying in the pocket has become a very popular practice among armed Americans. Pocket carry allows for quick and easy access to a small handgun while also providing excellent concealment of the firearm. Pocket carry also tends to boast the highest level of comfort among the carry positions. Like the appendix and hip carry positions,…
I confess to one of those people who is perpetually late to any given event. But that’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes by showing up late, you miss a fight, or at the very least, you’re not the first person to do something stupid. Kimber America must feel the same way, as they were…
Finding practice ammo is tougher than finding one of Epstein’s clients these days, yet we must press on (on both fronts). Furthermore, practice fodder scantly represents the heavy self-defense ammunition we might need to depend on in an emergency. Over the next few months, we will be offering up recipes for stout handgun loads that…
As the legend goes… The Buffalo Cartridge Company was tired of seeing guns that weren’t built with the same attention to detail as its signature ammunition and decided they needed to do something about it. Meet the BRG-9 Elite, the first of many pistols from the company’s newly founded arms division, BRG USA. This inexpensive…
When the Second Amendment was written, the founding fathers used the word “arms” instead of “muskets” or “guns.” While many argue the meaning of this, most believe that it was because they envisioned technological advances along the way. Even in their short lifetimes, they had seen muskets evolve into rifles; repeating firearms were presaged by…
Gun memes (or me-mes to those born before 1975) are a great way to share a laugh with fellow Second Amendment enthusiasts and even point out the aspects of firearms ownership that are often misunderstood. If you are like me then you probably have hundreds of these saved on your phone, sitting idly like a…
The 5.11 Tactical powerhouse is hell-bent on making the best apparel possible for shooters and gun enthusiasts. Many of us are familiar with its extensive lines of pants, shirts, and boots, but we often skip past the many accessories that this California-based company brings to the table. Among other things, 5.11 makes some incredibly tough…
