These days ammunition is scarce and expensive, and it looks like this situation is likely to persist for some time. Although most of the drills I’ve written up in this column are designed to be practiced with less than a box of ammunition, we’re at the point where even this small …

It wasn’t that long ago that Smith & Wesson and Federal Cartridge Company introduced a new 9 mm cartridge. It was 1993, and the new cartridge was the .356 TSW (Team Smith & Wesson, sometimes abbreviated as .356 TS&W). It was made for IPSC and USPSA shooters as a major power factor round for Limited division …

Politicians who don’t believe you should have Second Amendment rights have often tried to hide their gun-control laws in arguments for “public health.” The idea is to turn a matter of elementary liberty into a crisis that mandates instant action. Joe Biden has been loudly signaling that he plans to …

Congressman Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) isn’t given to hyperbole. When he speaks, he means what he says. It’s worth paying attention. It’s too bad his fellow Members of Congress would rather listen to gun control sycophants instead of serving the people they were elected to represent. U.S. Rep. Hudson lit into …

Merrick Garland was confirmed as the U.S. attorney general on Wednesday by a 70-30 vote. America’s 1st Freedom has reported extensively on Garland’s disbelief that the Second Amendment protects an individual right.

Today the NRA-ILA and the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association filed a reply brief asking the Supreme Court to hear a case challenging New York’s restrictive concealed-carry-licensing regime. This case challenges New York’s requirement for applicants to demonstrate “proper cause” to carry a firearm. New York regularly uses …

Vermont, like the entire country, is still in the middle of a generational pandemic, and anti-gun politicians in Montpelier have recklessly prioritized gun control at the top of their legislative agenda for 2021.  Even though the Statehouse remains closed, Vermont’s elected officials continue to huddle online and attack your Second Amendment …

The .35 Rem. has been chambered in a variety of rifles during the past 100-plus years. I recently found one example—a pump-action Remington Model 141 manufactured in 1949—in the back corner of a small gun shop, and its Lyman 66 aperture rear sight sealed the deal. The .35 Remington is …

At about the turn of the 20th to 21st century, a movement to create better cartridges for the AR-15 platform began. Hunters wanted a better cartridge for big game, and certain elements of the military considered replacement of the 5.56 NATO. The first legitimate attempt at this was the 6.8 SPC. It …
