WARRIOR OR SURVIVALIST

WARRIOR OR SURVIVALIST

Let’s look for a moment at the warrior mindset and basic survival instinct. Is it enough for a modern day warrior to be concerned solely with individual and unit survivability? Traditionally warriors have focused on martial skills that would allow them to win the fight and survive in battle. Today I hear a lot of […]

The Golden State Rule | California Gun Laws and You

The Golden State Rule | California Gun Laws and You

California has some of the most restrictive gun laws when it comes to specific types of weapons, and if you are considering moving to the Golden State and you have a few weapons for range day that you like well… it might be illegal.  We constantly read or view news reports on about how restrictive California Gun […]

Household Items Jason Bourne Has Used as Deadly Weapons

Household Items Jason Bourne Has Used as Deadly Weapons

Pens, magazines, saucepans—in the hands of Bourne, these are fatal weapons. Jason Bourne is probably the most resourceful action hero in movies—half the fun of the series is watching the myriad ways he wastes bad guys using everyday household items. At once imaginative and pragmatic in the domestic realm, Bourne is the Martha Stewart of […]

The Criminal Mindset and Tactics

The Criminal Mindset and Tactics

STUDY: Local apprehension, this individual has a known criminal history and previous weapon charges. Seen here is his “carry setup”. What looked to be a homemade off-centerline sheath for a slide button type construction/utility razor blade (later determined to be a well used utility knife carrier). The knife had a lanyard attached to the handle […]

What Makes Waterproof Hiking Boots Waterproof?

What Makes Waterproof Hiking Boots Waterproof?

After doing a quick Google search for the definition of a waterproof hiking boot, we found things like “impervious to water,” “a garment, especially a coat, that keeps out water,” and “rendered impervious to water by some special process, as coating or treating with rubber.” We also saw what others call pseudo synonyms like water-repellent […]

Sentinel Security: Training with Pat McNamara

Sentinel Security: Training with Pat McNamara

We may not be able to plan for everything that is uncertain in life, but we are capable of increasing our levels of awareness and preparedness. Economic collapse, storms of biblical proportions, and zombie attacks are not as likely as unfortunate events that happen in our day-to-day existence. There are simple steps we can take […]

Compact Semi Auto Sniper System?

Compact Semi Auto Sniper System?

During my time as a sniper in 3rd Ranger Battalion, the weapon/sniper rifle of choice was the SR-25 or the .300 WIN MAG in an AI chassis.  The M110 SASS (Semi-Automatic Sniper System) was something that we had in our arsenal, but many of us flat-out didn’t like it. The SASS did have a few […]

THE SURVIVAL TREE

THE SURVIVAL TREE

A lot of people have asked me about how they could increase their survivability in an active shooter situation. The reality is sometimes you can’t win and that’s something you should be training for. Train for the worst day of your life and hopefully when it happens it’s nowhere near the level you trained for. If […]

THE TERRORIST ATTACK AND CONCEALED CARRY

THE TERRORIST ATTACK AND CONCEALED CARRY

Paris…San Bernardino…Orlando…Istanbul. The list of terrorist attacks is getting longer, and will likely grow longer in the future. Terrorist attacks are the terrible new reality, and they are harsh reminders that you alone are responsible for the safety of yourself and your family. NRA In The Terrorist Attack Action Plan, we talked about the importance […]

Situational Awareness and Pokemon GO

Situational Awareness and Pokemon GO

I teach concealed carry classes and I have three main takeaways for my students. The legal portion, the gun safety portion, and that the best weapon you have is the one between your ears. By that, I mean situational awareness. I strive to teach the importance of simply paying attention to the world around you. […]
