For decades the mass murderer, most commonly in the form of an active shooter, has been deemed an anomaly in the realm of self-defense considerations. It still is. While the media goes hysterical over such events, the only reason they do so is to push for civilian disarmament. The leftwing media incorporates gang related shootings... Continue Reading →
I recently trained with Steve Fisher of Sentinel Concepts and it was the first time I have taken a class with him. I invited him on the show to discuss the subject of low light shooting, and many other topics. This was a good episode of CCX2. Steve drops some serious knowledge about low light...

I have used a speed strip to provide a reload for my snub revolver most of the time I have spent carrying it. The speed strip is easy to conceal, like the snub itself, thus making it the feasible carry companion. Still, I have worked with all manner of speedloaders over the years, and have...

I have been taught low light shooting techniques in a variety of pistol classes in the past, but I have wanted to take a dedicated low light class for a long time. I always presumed that the skill would be best learned in a stand-alone, topic specific, training environment. After attending this class with Steve... Continue Reading →
In the wake of the sickening tragedy in Uvalde, Texas, the majority of a particular political party is, again, dancing in the blood of murdered children to push their gun control agenda. They are gunning (pun intended) hard for universal background checks and red flag laws. Neither proposition would have stopped this killer, or any... Continue Reading →
At this point the horrendous mass killing in Texas at an elementary school is still not entirely understood, although as of this writing the details are emerging, and they don’t look good. It appears that police did not enter quickly, waiting over half an hour, and they even held back parents who were trying to... Continue Reading →
This past weekend I attended one of the best training experiences I have ever been privy too. John Murphy has hosted Hardwired Tactical for the two-day First Responder Pistol class for the past several years. I have long wanted to attend this course but it never worked out previously. So, I registered for it early... Continue Reading →
Rocket surgery, in case you are wondering, is the combination of rocket science and brain surgery. So, in other words, it is a very complicated affair. Shooting with a red dot on a pistol, however, is not at all as complicated as rocket surgery, despite the fact that some would have you believe otherwise. I... Continue Reading →
Nothing chaps my ass like having to travel to “non-permissive environments,” particularly in reference to entire states or cities. Court buildings and other federal locations are typically restricted and this is unlikely to change. The states and cities that prohibit the carry of defensive firearms are obviously populated with people who like having their betters,... Continue Reading →
Carry your gun, all the time. This is the advice that most of the respected firearms and self-defense trainers will offer. There is merit to this advice. Murphy’s law dictates that what can go wrong will go wrong, and if you carry a gun only 50% of the time, guess which 50% will most likely... Continue Reading →
