Holsters are a necessary part of owning a pistol. A holster allows safe carry of a firearm for both duty and range time. I personally, if carrying a duty pistol at all, am relegated to using either the SERPA design or the old school USGI green Cordura holster. Both are terrible options in my opinion […]
I recently finished reading The Terminal List and was extremely impressed with not only the storyline, but the list of weapons and gear used by the character, James Reece. As I was reading through the book, I was taking note of the guns and gear used. Most of it was stuff I’ve either personally used or […]
As always, I am a huge proponent of carrying and using whatever you have at your disposal.

Tell me about your pistol? This was an interesting topic brought up at the Kyle Defoor 2 day pistol course I attended. This topic was brought up during one of his small break out sessions he does throughout the day to give your eyes a break from shooting. The usual response to someone asking a dude about […]
Caldwell’s Stinger solves some fundamental challenges with rifle shooting. I had been resistant to the use of rests, perhaps as an old Soldiering habit. Train, as you fight, so shoot free-hand, was the mantra. All of that goes out the window however if you are truly trying to test, zero, or even teach with a simpler […]
Midway is well known in the gun world for selling a massive amount of different guns, parts, accessories, and even gear like boots, holsters, and much more. When I need some oddball part for my gun I usually turn to Midway USA to find these parts. They’ve also become pretty popular due to their giveaways. […]
