Freedom Shouldn’t Be Partisan
I do not mean that flippantly. There is no sugarcoating the consequences of November’s election for America’s gun owners: For the last four years, we have had a president who stood with us, and, as of January, we will likely (still unconfirmed as this was being written) have a president …
Carry Your Freedom
In June 2005, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled, in Castle Rock v. Gonzales, what many American gun owners suspected all along: For various reasons, the government has no legal duty to protect a person from harm. Many Americans remained ignorant of that ruling—such stories just don’t fit into mainstream-media narratives—but, …
Unsung: The AN/M2 .50-cal. Machine Gun in World War II
When we think of the firearms used by U.S. forces during World War II, the AN/M2 .50-caliber machine gun doesn’t exactly jump to the front of the line. Nevertheless, it was in action from Sunday, Dec. 7, 1941, through Aug. 18, 1945, when the gunners on two B-32 Dominators used …

Shooting Straight with Pastor David George
Pastor David George didn’t think he’d ever have to use his concealed-carry gun to save lives. He certainly didn’t expect to have to stand up to an act of evil in a Walmart parking lot. It just happened that way. On a Sunday morning in June 2018, on Father’s Day, …
