An Unbreakable Umbrella for Self-Defense? Why not!

If you have to choose your best pick of self-defense, what would it be? Pepper spray? Tasers? Maybe a gun? How about an umbrella? Remember the bar fight scene in the Kingsman: The Secret Service where Hary Harth (played by Colin Firth) beat those angsty men in style with nothing but his umbrella? You don’t […]

15 Clever (and Witty!) Military Gear Nicknames You Should Know

Those who have served in the military know that it represents a world and culture all its own.  It even has its languages that service members speak in the different branches. Those languages also differ between the services.  For example, in the Navy, a bathroom is called a “Head.” While in the Army it’s called […]

How (Un)Realistic Are Sci-Fi Weapons?

From lightsabers to exosuits, sci-fi movies sure have tons of awesome and lethal weapons that we all wanted as kids (or maybe until now.) It’s easy to choose them anytime over seemingly boring pistols, or rifles but the question is, how realistic (or unrealistic) are they? The Lightsaber One of the most well-known sci-fi weapons, […]

M50 Joint Service General Protective Mask at a Closer Look

The branches of the U.S. Military are trained to deal with the most dangerous situations and respond to spontaneous, short notice crises— be it diffusing bombs, dealing with airstrikes, close-quarter combat, anti-terrorism operations, or providing humanitarian assistance both here and abroad.

H&K MP-5 Sub-Machinegun: Famous but not Friendly

H&K MP-5 Sub-Machinegun: Famous but not Friendly

Zenith Firearms is making a new pistol braced MKE Z-5RS which has all the fun of the original without the tax stamp or a felony.  The Zenith guns are every bit as fun as the originals and much easier to buy and maintain. The CDI (Chicks Dig It) factor on these guns is off the scale.  […]

A Former Delta Force Operator’s Glock 17 Setup

Editor’s Note: Geo’s memoir, “Brothers of the Cloth,” a true account of special mission unit soldiers, has sold out in hardcover and will soon be coming out in paperback! You can keep an eye out for it here.   My Glock 17 is 30 years old now. It is the first and last pistol I […]

M134 Minigun – Old Painless Lives and Fires

Good old General Electric produces everything, and I mean everything from microwaves to miniguns. The subject of today’s article is, of course, the latter. If you want to learn about microwaves, comment below, and I’ll help you out. Is there a more visceral 7.62mm weapon than the M134 Minigun? I saw them here and there […]

The Home Defense AR-15 – Setting Up for Success

An AR-15 by itself gets you most of the way there, but there are a few accessories you should consider investing in. These […]
