“If you want to keep it, you have to give it away.” Interesting paradox, right? The preceding adage can refer to many aspects of life but it is almost exclusively associated with knowledge. As more and more new gun owners enter “our” ranges most folks will look at this as a hindrance. However, if you…
Just a few weeks ago I informed a student that he was going to have to supply his own shatterproof eye protection, as we were suspending loaners during COVID-19. He replied that he has prescription glasses, but wasn’t sure if they were shatterproof. Of course, most prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses are, but it got me…
Carrying an extra magazine doesn’t make you paranoid, it makes you prepared. While we do everything to ensure our firearm is at the ready there are at least three issues that can only be solved with a magazine swap. First, let’s pay homage to the Tiger King series and point out that some guns, NOT…
Welp, they say the first step towards improvement is admitting that you have a problem….so here we go. When I first became a gun owner I was nearly penny-less. Therefore I cut corners everywhere I could and to my demise, the largest corner I cut was the investment in purpose-built tools. Sadly, after more than…

It is a good practice to change out your defensive ammunition every four to six months. Most gun owners will hem and haw over that advice, citing that the “expense” is too great to do that twice a year. If you ask us, it sounds far more expensive to get a click instead of a…
When Flugaloo fear was on the rise everyday civilians found themselves scraping together whatever cash wasn’t already invested in toilet paper to buy a firearm. When a gun is purchased under these circumstances it typically is not a Cabot or a Caesar Guerini that comes home, it’s something with more of a bargain-basement feel. Today,…
We typically associate the Swiss with some pretty peaceful stuff. Maybe a warm cup of cocoa or perhaps a cute little pocketknife for a kid’s first camping trip. While this is certainly accurate it should not go unnoticed that the Swiss are actually pretty badass. For starters, their gun laws are in many ways less…
Most of us don’t think twice about strapping a gun on every morning, but many of us are guilty of leaving the knife that was next to it on the dresser as we walk out the door. It’s pretty strange if you ask me, I mean we prepare for an encounter with the scum of the…
