Self-defense does not necessarily mean you have to use lethal force. There are different levels of force. In those instances where a firearm is not quite called for yet, it is always good to have in-between options for use of force. Two of the most popular being some type of chemical mace or pepper spray,…
Looking for a self-defense gun that won’t make you stand out like a nearly-naked girl on the beach? The mouse gun, the pocket protector, the backup gun, whatever you call it—in the industry, we call them micropistols. While cheaper than the bigger compact pistols like the Glock 42 or Sig 365, one dares not call…
If you were King of the World, what new firearm models would you want to have? Which discontinued firearms would you demand be brought back to production? Join me for this stroll down the imagination of Mr. UnPewFessional and ask … would the XDMAN bring back the Grip Zone? (Short answer: That’s a no for…
Is the Ruger 10/22 only considered a good rifle because it is popular, or is it only considered popular because it’s a good rifle? The answer is muddied water that flows both ways. The 10/22 is arguably not the finest, most accurate, or even the most reliable .22LR ever produced. In fact, from the very…
Anyone who has carried a firearm for any length of time has no doubt played musical holsters until the “junk” drawer was full and their wallets empty.

Early in the year I got hints that Springfield Armory was going to have a great year with a ton of new products. Those hints were not exaggerated. I’ve got my FFL on speed-dial and my wallet wide open. In this episode of “What Did Springfield Armory Release This Time?” we have a little brother…
If the .22WMR is the classic Mighty Mouse magnum, the S&W M&P .22 Magnum pistol is the mousetrap that puts it in its place. As a full-sized pistol with a human-sized grip that weighs about the same as an empty Glock 19, the Smith makes the next closest competitor in its class, the Keltec PMR30,…

Let’s shed a little light on the subject … Readers already know why I like the Surefire X300U (and if not, you can find out why here.) But did you know that there are other accessories for the X300 that not only complement the X300, but make it even better? The main selling point of…
If you are serious about carrying a firearm for self-defense, one of the most important things you can do is add a flashlight to your everyday carry (EDC) rig. Identifying your target is critical, so this is not the time to skimp. I am not made of money, but my personal safety gets budget priority….
It’s the end of the world as we know it … and I’m eatin’ fine! Because of the sensational TV shows the word “prepper” has taken on a negative connotation in segments of the general population.
