Tech Wisdom: Hittin’ and Missin’
Heavy fouling, such as seen on the AR bolt-carrier group above, are one of many factors that can cause a firearm to malfunction. While instructing several students how to operate an AR-15-style rifle, it failed to fire several times when the trigger was pulled. Trying to shoot a five-shot string …
Remaining Democrat Candidates All Oppose the Second Amendment
Former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders are effectively in a two-horse race for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination after the results of Super Tuesday. After a dismal showing, former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg suspended his campaign and endorsed Biden. Sen. Elizabeth Warren remains in the …
Everyday Carry Essentials In Addition to a Firearm
Let’s start with the caveat that everyone should carry a firearm free of restriction, infringement or government interference whenever possible. There are, however, plenty of reasons why someone may either choose–or be required by law–to leave their firearm at home, though. Finding yourself devoid of a firearm does not mean …

They Hate Our Right To Self-Defense
The most I could ask of gun-control activists is simply for them to tell the truth about who they are, what they believe and what they want. Not only does this make for an honest debate, it makes it easy to build a case for the Second Amendment. That’s because …
What If?
Before any election, it’s worth asking, “What if?” What if one of the anti-gun politicians now hoping to be president wins and gets their way? We don’t have to wonder what they want, as they’ve been publishing their wish lists of restrictions and bans on your Second Amendment freedoms. All …
The Funny Thing About Hollywood and Guns
Everybody doesn’t like something, but, it seems, nobody doesn’t like the “John Wick” movie franchise. That’s certainly a point made by the total $500 million in box office sales the three films have made. For action fans, gun enthusiasts, wannabe machos, even those who hate anything that goes bang in the night or day, the John …
Another Red Flag Failure – This Time In Florida
