Shooting upward to the head on an imminent lethal threat not only gets your head out of the line of fire and delivers a immediately incapacitating counter strike, but further, you can limit your liability in the event you miss. Of course one stock response is “don’t miss”. However, for anyone that’s done any scenarios […]
One of the most challenging issues to solve when considering a pistol for concealed carry is managing the trade off between size and capacity. On the one hand, selecting a handgun with a small footprint for CCW makes it easier to conceal (and therefore, less likely to print). However, smaller guns simply don’t have the […]
A break-in period is a vital step and should be a key focus when getting a new gun you intend to carry or serve in a self defense role. When you get a new pistol, rifle or shotgun, you are getting a freshly finished product made of metal, wood, polymer, or some other material shaped […]

For ladies like my mother, who can’t imagine going anywhere without one of their helpful handbags glued to their side, purse carry could be […]
