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. That’s amazing because in the 23 years of my adult life there have been multiple examples of rationing, production…
I love the sweet heavy metal sound of shooting steel targets. There is no lying about a hit or miss—the target will let you know. If you are a long-distance shooter, steel gongs are great in that you can get both visual and audible feedback when the target moves. They save time and effort. I…

Picture It: Sicily, 1922. Whoops, wrong channel. Picture It: Your Bedroom, 2 a.m. You awaken from a deep sleep to interlopers that have broken into your castle.
