American HIMARS are being put to good use in Ukraine. Image Credit: TT @mblaszczak

Inside an American Mobile Rocket Launching System in Ukraine

Pimping Their Ride Christmas came early this year to Ukrainian fighting forces in the form of four M142 HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems). They arrived in the embattled nation late last month as part of a $700 million military aid package courtesy of Uncle Sam. As soldiers do, the young Ukrainian men operating this […]

How to stab someone with your rifle like a Marine

The technique of using a bayonet is a somewhat lost art out of military circles, probably for the obvious reason that it’s a bit impractical for civilians. That being said, I’m going to teach you anyway because it’s cool and who knows? There could be some cross relevance to it in relation to close quarters […]

Top five preferred weapon modifications

Top five preferred weapon modifications

Everyone, civilian or military, who enjoys weapons loves to trick out their gun. We all have personal preferences to how we set up our firearms to cater to our own style of shooting. Maybe it’s the technique that dictates the specific placement of certain mods, it could be purpose-driven reasons for particular accessories, or maybe […]

full auto versus semi auto

Full-Auto vesus Semi-Auto

I grew up in a family full of Veterans and one of my favorite memories was heading to coffee with my Grandpa Jim and all the other WW2 Vets in town.  Hearing the way they bullshitted with each other left a strong impression.  Deja Vu set in once I joined the Army, as hearing a group […]

The Cold Steel 'War Hawk' Combat Axe

The Cold Steel ‘War Hawk’ Combat Axe

First of all, I have to admit that I am partial to axes and hatchets. It might be the Nordic Viking blood running through my veins, but I have always loved axes and hatchets. I started splitting wood using an axe at about 10 years of age and loved doing it. The Cold Steel War […]

Innovative Arms W.A.R | Adjustable gas receiver

Innovative Arms W.A.R | Adjustable gas receiver

As the AR-15 platform has evolved from its origins as a plastic-furnished sporting rifle, to the nearly indistinguishable PDW’s and long range precision rifles of the modern era, the number, and type of accessories and options has increased exponentially.  With variances in barrels and calibers, came adjustable gas blocks to mitigate excess blowback.  Longer rails […]

Why we need access to ‘assault weapons’ and modern firearms

Why we need access to ‘assault weapons’ and modern firearms

First and foremost I’m not here to belittle anyone or their views, I won’t be calling anyone “snowflake” or “libtard”; I find such things extremely distasteful and they seriously detract from having a meaningful discussion between opposing viewpoints. Rather than just throwing memes at each other, I believe in having a rational discourse. Please lend me a […]

A brief history of bulletproof vests and armor

A brief history of bulletproof vests and armor

The evolution of the firearm is an interesting one — from the unknown Chinese origins of gunpowder, to the fire lance, and the slow development of handheld tubes that use gunpowder to force a projectile outward and into an enemy target. By the 1300s, what we consider guns today were well along in development, and […]

Disruptive Environments 762 heavy chest rig

Disruptive Environments 762 heavy chest rig

As I continue to build my SR 762 from Ruger (.308) I decided to acquire a chest rig (see the first article in the build series here). I have a plate carrier already (which this rig can attach to), but I wanted something lightweight I could use while hunting with this platform (WA a .308 […]

Gerber StrongArm Fixed Blade | First Look

Gerber StrongArm Fixed Blade | First Look

Gerber is associated with two things in my world. A cute baby on everything my son had when he was a baby, and it’s often a universal term for multi-tools. In fact, if you’ve spent any time in the military you have heard the term Gerber used for any and every multi-tool. Gerber makes more […]
