I have been notoriously outspoken in my opinion that most concealed carriers are best served by focusing most, if not all, of their training on a single handgun platform. The fact is that from one gun to another you face different grips, grip angles, trigger pulls, ergonomics, and other changes that simply demand some cross-over... Continue Reading →
I prefer to carry a handheld light that protrudes past my palm when I hold it in the typical hammer fist grip. There are two reasons for this: first, it is easier to point and light things up with the Bezel unobstructed by the hand. Second, I like having the ability to strike with the... Continue Reading →
I was invited on the Finding Freedom show, one of the Lions if Liberty podcasts, to discuss recent events, Second Amendment, and my book 21st Century Minute Man. This was a good show, despite some audio issues which seem to have originated from my end. Anyway, if you want to arm yourself with some good... Continue Reading →
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...

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 →
So, what does Frank Serpico, the famous whistleblower NYPD cop, my own father, and yours truly, all have in common? We all, at some point in our lives, carried a Browning Hi Power. Springfield Armory has released their updated production of the Hi Power and that has led me to reminisce about this particular gun... Continue Reading →
I recently acquired the Mountain Man Medical Wind River trauma and first aid kit. I have two larger trauma kits that I have built out through buying and assembling different components, one that is in the home and one that is in the vehicle. These two kits contain gear to treat multiple casualties, not just... Continue Reading →
