How to clean your rifle like a Marine

“The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle.” General John Pershing, U.S. Army. No matter what their MOS is, every Marine is a rifleman. They are all trained to effectively engage targets out to 500 meters, perform basic battlefield maneuvers, and professionally maintain the standard issue service rifle. This is one […]

How to Survive Anything: Finding water in the wilderness

In a survival situation, water is your first priority. Your stomach may be shouting at you for food, but rest assured, it’ll be fine without any for a lot longer than you can go without some hydration. In a lot of parts of the world, water isn’t actually all that hard to find, as long […]

How to Survive Anything: Learn the 4 Life Saving Steps

It wasn’t all that long ago that I came across a serious accident. Two pickup trucks had collided head on at the mouth of a bridge near my rural home, and I knew it would be some time before emergency services arrived. I’m no paramedic, but in some circumstances, you’ve got no choice but to […]

If you’re stuck in the wilderness for an extended period of time, there’s a chance you may find yourself sharing your new home with a fair number of predators.Ā Most predators don’t want anything to do with you: you don’t look or smell delicious, you’re much bigger than most prey, and for all they know, you […]

An Israeli special operator’s top unwritten rules of close-quarters combat (Part 1)

This series of articles isn’t meant to offer concrete, hard-and-fast rules about close-quarters combat. Like anything in life, there are dozens of paths to this destination—it’s efficiency and safety that make the difference. These ā€˜rules’ are more a reminder of things that many forget or are simply not aware of. In this series of articles, […]

How to Survive Anything: The survival rule of 3’s

The Rule of 3s is a long-standing saying that isn’t really meant to be a ā€œrule,ā€ so much as a guideline. Because your body and circumstances are both different from anyone else’s, how long you’ll last without access to shelter, food, or water will vary greatly from other people that find themselves in tough situations. […]

How to stab someone with your rifle like a Marine

The technique of using a bayonet is a somewhat lost art out of military circles, probably for the obvious reason that it’s a bit impractical for civilians. That being said, I’m going to teach you anyway because it’s cool and who knows? There could be some cross relevance to it in relation to close quarters […]

Clearing your home: How to ā€œslice the pieā€ for beginners

There are several different schools of thought out there for CQB (close quarters battle) tactics.
