This EDC is from Chris, a pilot somewhere in the southwest. He says “The G19 has mods and doodads to make it go bang more comfortably. My EDC changes on a regular basis, with weather and work. I’m a pilot, and some of my flights take me to states where I can’t CCW.” Question: how […]
By MarkPA Now that Brett Kavanaugh has ascended the bench, the Supreme Court is likely to rule on some states’ “may-issue” practices that amount to “won’t-issue” for carry permits. The recent case of Young v. Hawaii is ripe for consideration. A three judge panel of the Ninth Circuit has ruled in Young’s favor, granting him his prayer […]
A 58-year-old North Carolina man named Joseph Harrison just found out that he will not be charged after shooting another man in self-defense. According to reports, Harrison was driving on U.S. 70 before exiting onto Main Street in Valdese, North Carolina. While on the highway, Harrison was being tailgated by 21-year-old Max Barnes, who also […]
Easy-to-conceal palm pistols were all the rage during the last quarter of the 19th century. Numerous companies produced countless variations of very similar designs. One design was, however, quite different from the rest. Enter the “Little All Right” by the Wright Arms Co. of Lawrence, Massachusetts. Patented in 1876 by Edward Boardman and Andrew Peavey, […]
“I want to come to the table and make an offer, a suggestion, an olive branch. And I want to do it without being accused of heresy by fellow gun owners. Folks, I believe in our cause. Because I believe the founders understood the potential for tyranny in every age and the value of having […]

With Hurricane Michael bearing down, Governor Scott has declared a state of emergency for 26 Florida panhandle counties via Executive Order 18-276. If a mandatory evacuation order is issued, residents in the affected counties can carry concealed firearms without a CCW permit in accordance with Florida Statute 790.01 Unlicensed carrying of concealed weapons or concealed […]
Not the only Makarov out their being used for EDC, but still relatively unusual. It’s always interesting when a model like the Makarov shows up as part of a pocket dump. Fifteen years ago we could find them under $100 – even $70, if memory serves – and they remain inexpensively priced in comparison to […]
Yesterday morning, just after 6:00 A.M., KSL.com reports that a frequent Starbucks patron may have saved a life while having his morning joe. This happened in Millcreek, Utah. The commotion began when a 37-year-old man named Benjamin Overall started behaving aggressively toward customers at a 7-Eleven. The police had already been called, but as the 7-Eleven customers […]
The Democrat candidate for Florida Agriculture Commissioner, Nikki Fried, is no friend of Florida gun owners. As we reported in our Florida primary election article, Fried backs ever more gun control restrictions and wants to make concealed weapon permits in particular much harder to get. She also supports removing the state’s preemption law in favor of […]
Greg in Alabama says this Gen 4 Glock 26 is his EDC. He also lists his job as “hospital administrator,” which means I’m wondering if he actually carries on a daily basis. Hospitals are almost always gun-free zones (which tends to make them one of the places you really need a gun). How do you […]
