As a man from Florida, I have a certain affinity for shoulder holsters. What do Shoulder holsters have to do with Florida? Well, a little show called Miami Vice featured the famous Galco Miami holster, aka the Jackass Rig. Since then I’ve associated shoulder holsters with my home state, pastels, and of course white blazers. […]
Brownell’s has long been a friend of the gun builder. From their beginning as a parts and tool supply to their growth into their current status as the Candyland for gun lovers. Not long ago they began making their own AR-15 magazines (I’ve seen it personally, these are not simple rebrands), and now they offer […]
The difference between cover and concealment is one of the most misunderstood principles in the self defense. When evaluating the use of cover and concealment, we need to understand what they mean and how to identify them. Let’s look at the difference between cover and concealment. Cover: Will stop/deflect rounds for at least a small […]
There are many people who dislike bullpup rifles. I not only like them, I find that there are quite a few things they do much better than conventional designs. After running M16 and M4 rifles in combat in the military, I prefer the bullpup. Fighting in tight spaces with one of these rifles was a nightmare, not […]
An airgun huh? That was my assignment and I approached it with mild caution. I know the difference between an airgun and a Daisy Red Ryder BB Gun. The Airforce Condor is reportedly one of the best on the market. This is a seriously powerful gun within its range. It can fire a 22 caliber […]

He makes a lot of valid points in this video. Please watch it thoroughly and several times…then we’ll surely see you in the comments section. Follow Funker […]
Gun cleaning is one of those chores that comes with the fun. There was a time when I enjoyed it. Spending some quiet time cleaning every nook and cranny until it shined. Running dozens of patches through the bore along with a multi-step program of specialty cleaning agents. Then life got busy and I became […]
There are several factors to consider when evaluating a pistol for concealed carry, including ergonomics, size, capacity, and reliability. Reliability is the subject of this post, but I will also discuss some of the other elements that come into play when choosing a concealed carry pistol. If there arises a self defense situation where a […]
Today we accessorize long guns with lights, lasers, variable magnification optics and slings. While some of these things may be unnecessary, I feel like the sling is the most important. With all the things that it helps a shooter to accomplish, you can’t go without a sling. When in serious use in a fight, you […]
The pinnacle of combat optics, in my opinion, is the ACOG. Ever since I was first issued one in the School of Infantry, Infantry Training Battalion, I’ve been impressed. I carried one on various platforms for years professionally and it’s one of those pieces of gear that I truly loved in my Marine Corps experience. […]
