This EDC knife knows it may be your last line of defense. Sure, folders and out-the-front knives have grown in leaps and bounds over the years, with their structural integrity becoming increasingly impressive. However, as good as they have become, they will never eclipse the reliable assurance of a fixed blade. With roots and inspiration…
Most of us have likely been unfortunate enough to overhear a conversation at the gun counter that went something to the tune of “No, it has to be a 12-gauge…20 doesn’t have enough stopping power.” If you’re like me, it probably takes every bone in your body not to smack this guy so hard it…
In my opinion, there is nothing more fascinating than human nature. I consider it the only thing on par with shooting and this is why I love my job. As an instructor, I have found a true canvas to which my analytical mind can paint. My observations are based on thousands of students over nearly…
Have you ever found yourself saying, “Ugh. Why? I mean, yeah, I’ll take one…?” Well, if you haven’t, then I invite you to take a gander at Heritage Manufacturing’s latest Rough Rider revolver, the Tactical Cowboy. This latest incarnation of its best-selling .22 plinker brings Picatinny rail functionality to the classic design of the Old…
It seems in this world of compact micro pistols we have forgotten just how comfortable and concealable a single-stack option can really be. Savage has always put a premium on comfortable carry, and you can see that this has been true ever since 1907 when it released its first pocket pistol. After taking a break…
As most of you know, I am quite versed in wilderness survival. Drop me off in the driest desert or the coldest mountain and I am sure that I can sustain for three, maybe even five days. When the world was trying to get as much toilet paper as possible to wipe whatever body parts…
Sometimes I witness a dumpster fire so spectacular that I am compelled to write about it. This go-round somebody brought up the fact that it is perfectly legal to consume a moderate amount of alcohol and drive home (depending on your state limit), however, you better not have a gun on you while you…
If you’ve ever taken a pistol course at Renaissance Firearms Instruction, you’ve likely heard me or one of our instructors tell students to “carry what you play with.” While that isn’t always meant to be taken literally, we say it to drive home the point that when it hits the fan your fingers are going…
So, I have this boring old gun… Pistols are terrific for defense on the go but their very nature makes them unsteady. This is the major reason behind a handgun’s “inaccuracy,” not necessarily the shorter barrel or reduced sight radius. In other words, the platform has tremendous potential, it just needs a little help getting…
Well, it seems that our first list really hit home with you folks. For those that missed the first five questions that drive gun owners batty, you can do your homework HERE. After that here’s another five gun-related questions that make you rub your temples: Stupid Question 1: “Where do you go to shoot them?”…
Are you seriously leaving your house without a flashlight? The company known as 5-11 is best known for its tactically-minded clothing, footwear, and baggage, but most forget about the plethora of everyday carry items that it has to offer, such as the EDC-K USB and the EDC PL 2AAA Flashlight. My ultimate intention is to…
Although getting shot at the range is highly unlikely, other hazards do indeed exist. About 10 years ago I found myself getting rushed to a hospital that was more than 40 miles away due to an errant piece of lead from an improperly hung steel target. We got the bleeding controlled in a matter of…
