Try not to be in a situation where you’re without a light source. I’m certain a good many of us have been on a dusky road, walking in darkness. And there’s that sinking feeling that things are pretty bad or going to get worse. You might have a candle in your car but you might […]
Many years ago I was traveling back down to San Diego with some friends, and we were ‘yucking’ it up in the vehicle. We were a convoy of three vehicles, on our way down Interstate 5, and cruising straight down the road and into Los Angeles. Humor turned into confusion as I looked out the […]
Here are some tips from Rob Pincus of Personal Defense Network on how to make your trip with firearms go as smoothly as possible. If you are thinking of traveling to a firearms training course or for a big game hunt, but have not done so due to all the red tape with TSA rules […]
Great, you have selected your Concealed Carry (CC) gun and decided on your method of carry. Recognizing that your carry method is very much personal preference, let’s assume you have recently lost some weight and have decided that In-the-Waistband (IWB) carry is the one you now prefer.

Congratulations “Fumble Fingers” you just dropped your magazine on the ground and bet your life on the way you reloaded your gun in an encounter with a bad guy or gal. Or, now the mag you let hit the dirt is all gritty and dirty and not functional. Or, you thought you had 10 rounds […]

Of course, that is not to say that training should be mandatory in order to exercise a basic right, but it is a really good […]
“Your pockets are empty, yes?” her words echoed, sharp and overly-loud, off the tiled walls of the hospital corridor. I assured her they were. I had emptied them in the car, and security had patted me down twice as we made our way through the building. Psychiatric institutions take no chances—especially not with cases like […]
Every gun needs a holster — truth. Does every holster need a belt? If you grew up on cowboy movies, chances are grand you saw a cowboy with a gun belt.
