For today, Christian Neveu submits his Everyday Carry for us to enjoy / learn from. He calls it his “Black and Steel.” Seems a little dramatic, but whatever. From Everyday Carry, of course. Today, on Lock N Load Radio, Bill Frady asked me if the thought these were real. Yeah, easily 90% of these are […]
Cleary what Italy needs is a national conversation about ballistic weapons, a mandatory buyback and some common sense air-to-air missile control. These weapons of war have no place in Italy’s skies. From the AP: Rome – Police in northern Italy have detained three men, including one linked to a neo-fascist Italian political party, after uncovering […]
Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, right? If that’s so, the Walther P99 should be very flattered, though it’s an oddly popular gun to clone. The Turks cloned it via the Canik, and Smith & Wesson teamed up with Walther to produce the SW99. Another partnership between Walther and an American company is […]
If you’re a knife knut as well as a firearms fan, you may have heard of We Knife Co. They’re a Chinese knife manufacturer that turns out some incredibly well-made and nicely designed blades. Thanks to a tip from Clay Aalders (former TTAK editor and now digital editor of Knife Magazine), we hear that We […]
SB Tactical is the brace that started race, and keeps on winning it. The SBA4 is the newest version of the AR-15 pistol stabilizing brace that gave all sorts of shooters options they never had before. Unsurprisingly, this newest version, which is based on SB Tactical’s popular SBM4 brace, is feature packed and top notch […]
LaShawn Ford has served as an Illinois State Representative since 2007. Like his fellow Chicago Democrat General Assembly members, he has been a fairly consistent vote against gun rights since, well, forever. But he recently appeared on radio station WLS-AM encouraging residents to arm themselves and get their carry licenses. What caused Rep. Ford’s sudden, […]
Dr. Michael Brown probably didn’t have much expectation of getting any kind of response from Marion Hammer when he published the open letter linked below. He was wrong, though. She responded by, in effect, blaming so-called progressives and gun grabbers for the NRA’s extensive problems. It is painfully obvious that the NRA’s odd organizational structure […]
Geno from New Hampshire sends his “Current EDC since 2017” for comment. From Everyday Carry. Geno writes that he’s an office professional, meaning he probably drives a desk. I can sympathize. At the same time, he carries a lot of stuff. A whole lot of stuff. His carry piece? A Ruger LCR. I notice the […]
From the Second Amendment Foundation: BELLEVUE, WA – Declaring that so-called “gun-free zones are shooting galleries for maniacs,” the Second Amendment Foundation today is calling for an end to such designations by launching an advertising campaign aimed at print and online publications. “Without a self-defense option,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. […]
The Remington 870 TAC-14 and Mossberg 590 Shockwave “pistol grip firearms” have been quite successful for the two big names in American-made shotguns. Successful enough that both companies have produced a number of variants of these short not-a-shotguns. As the owner of several of these firearms, I have to say my all-time favorite is the […]
So, New Zealand has a quarter-million gun owners with, by most estimates, upwards of two million guns. The government there recently banned most semi-autos following the Christchurch massacre. And now, a local police superintendent describes himself as “ecstatic” that 150 gun owners turned in 224 guns. From NPR: New Zealand’s first gun buyback in the […]
Just a few years ago the idea of concealed carrying with an attached weapon light was a non-starter. I tried with an old Streamlight TLR-3 and found it too bulky and too hard to find a holster I liked. I basically gave up on the idea of using a tactical light until I got my […]
