My man Chris Heaven, CEO of Survival Dispatch, had well-known intelligence analyst, Sarah Adams, on the panel last night. You need to watch this. It's coming, my dear reader. Survival Dispatch is the only group tracking this looming threat, I encourage you to follow them. FYI, I will be on the panel this Friday to... Continue Reading →
Last week I wrote an article discussion how to balance concealability versus performance when choosing your primary carry gun. Still, no matter how often you can carry the primary, most armed citizens find occasional, if not common, need for the smallest possible handgun to accommodate dress requirements or social restrictions. Thus, most need a deep... Continue Reading →
How do you choose the right gun as a primary carry piece? I suggest that you look for a handgun that is substantial in capability and shoot-ability, but small enough that you can carry it most of the time when dressed casually. Therefore, it proves a very individual choice. There are, indeed, guys who can... Continue Reading →
Even amidst the constant discussion in the self-defense and “tactical” community regarding the looming threat of terrorism, I continue to urge focus on handgun skills as, inevitably, if the armed civilian finds himself/herself at ground zero, that is what you are far more likely to be armed with rather than a long gun.

Many of my readers are probably familiar with the term “gun culture 2.0,” as it is most notably associated with Dr. David Yamane and his work on the modern culture that surrounds firearms.

This is the best discussion I have ever been a part of regarding the terror threat. Survival Dispatch has been doing an excellent job of analyzing recent developments in the realm of Jihadi terrorism, bringing on numerous ex-military and intelligence experts in the past several weeks to provide an assessment of where this threat stands. ...

While many in the firearms and preparedness community get fixated on rifles and plate carriers during times of heightened threat, I seek to draw the armed citizen back into this reality: you are most likely to face the monsters with your handgun, because the monsters strike in public locations where they anticipate little resistance. You... Continue Reading →
Notice I refer to violence against “houses of worship” rather than “churches” and that is by design. It appears that all houses of worship, regardless of religion, are targeted for violence in an escalating fashion in the past several years and this should concern anyone who attends any kind of church or other house of...

Precision rifle shooting is very popular right now. This is for several reasons, I believe. First, the popularity of precision rifle has grown as the infatuation with the close-range configured fighting AR15 has cooled, leading to a variety of other firearms pursuits, including precision rifle. Second, precision rifle is very challenging, introducing a lot of,... Continue Reading →
Several months ago I wrote an article entitled Handgun Training for Worst Case Scenario. In that article I addressed my take on the seemingly inevitable large-scale, coordinated, terror attack that we are due for thanks to years of an unsecured border and immigration system. I anticipate such an attack will be similar to the Mumbai... Continue Reading →
