Blue Force Gear SAW Pouch | First Look

Blue Force Gear SAW Pouch | First Look

One of the more interesting elements of the Marine infantry is how jobs in the infantry are divided into different MOS categories. I spent five years as a machine gunner in a line company weapons platoon. I learned a lot, and I genuinely loved carrying the biggest gun in a rifle squad. One of the […]

Are Five Shot Revolvers and .380s Enough for Self Defense? Watch Mom and Daughter Battle Robber

While training and proper equipment are important, can two women with minor caliber guns and no training stop a robber with a sawed off shotgun? According to this video, yes they can. The mom and daughter tending the store had a 5 shot revolver and the daughter had a .380. This surveillance video shows a […]

“My Sights Are Off” and other Pistol Accuracy Myths

There are some trips to the range that I remember very clearly… A decade or so ago, I bought an H&K USPc. I immediately took it to the range, had the sights swapped out, and took it onto the range for a test fire. The darn thing shot low. I took it back to the gunsmith […]

ESEE-4 Fixed Blade Knife Review: More Than Just a Knife

I’ve had the ESEE 4 for a few weeks now, and it’s been a near constant companion on my adventures. It’s too large for everyday carry, but perfect for every adventure carry.  I’ve taken fishing in the Gulf of Mexico and exposed it to salt water, and barely cleaned it and not a touch of […]

U.S. Army Adopts Hollow Point Ammo With the M-17 and M-18

For decades, the American military has struggled with ways to improve handgun  effectiveness while avoiding the bad press of using hollow point ammo (sometimes called “Dum dum” bullets).  The Army has announced that the M-17 Modular Handgun System (MHS) will shoot hollow points in combat. A recent study by the Federal Bureau of Investigation concluded […]

Former FBI Agent Says Women Can’t Carry Guns Because… They Wear Dresses

On February 24 CNN law enforcement analyst Tom Fuentes asked the question, “For a woman, where are you going to hide that gun during the day?” He continued with another question, “If you wear a dress, if you wear a skirt, are you going to have to wear a jacket everyday with a belt and […]

Stag 10S .308 Battle Rifle: a Little More “Boom” Than “Pew”

With all they advancements of AR-15s it’s easy to forget that the original intent of Eugene Stoner was to build a battle rifle, not an assault rifle.  The original design, the AR-10 was for the .308/7.62x51mm cartridge.  There are several reasons why that model was droped by the military and the M-16 was born, but […]

Travis Pike’s Honest Everyday Carry

Gun – Walther PPS 9mm The Walther PPS in a single stack, striker fired, polymer framed semi-automatic pistol. It comes chambered in either 9mm or 40 S&W. Mine is in 9mm. Why the Walther versus the other single stack 9mms out there? First and foremost the Walther offered a wider variety of options than the […]

The Sig 320 and the M-17: The Tests Continue and the Sig Keeps Passing

The Sig 320 is the most tested and selected handgun in the 21st Century.  The advanced modular design won the Army’s Modular Handgun competition and became the M-17 and M-18. After extensive testing involving over one million rounds, the Sig 320 was selected as the new Immigration and Customs Enforcement duty handgun. Recent internet tales […]

Light Shed on a Hidden Gem: DoubleStar Midnight Dragon

With a flooded AR-15 market it’s easy to ignore models that have been out there for a while, and even easier to ignore them if they haven’t been recently seen on a magazine cover cradled by some full-sleeve-tattooed gym rat with a perfectly-groomed operator beard.  Add to that the increasingly affordable options for home builds […]
