Several weeks prior to this writing, in Alexandria, Virginia, three nitwits stood outside of a home, dressed in masks, taunting the homeowner to open the door, saying, “if you don’t open, we are coming in!” This happened prior to Halloween, not on Halloween night, so it is not a distasteful holiday prank. Rather, as judged... Continue Reading →
The Sub-Compact Pistol: Ideal Carry
Like much in life, handgun size is a compromise. There are some people who do carry full-size service pistols, typified by the Glock 17 and the Smith and Wesson M&P. realistically, this is difficult for most people to do if they want to truly conceal the gun. The ubiquitous Glock 19 has been so well-received... Continue Reading →
Preparation for the EBT Crisis
We are on the brink of the longest government shutdown in history. Each partisan side blames the other, but this current event simply proves what we all already knew; congress is sickeningly inept, corrupt, and useless. Be that as it may, the most staggering statistic to come to light as many focus on this problem... Continue Reading →
Strong Side Carry: Just for Fudds?
I admit, I have not carried a gun on strong side while out in public in, literally, years. I find AIWB carry superior for a variety of reasons.

Between all the Glocks, M&Ps, Staccatos, Walthers, and every other great thing, gotta have’m all, right? The problem remains that... Continue Reading →
Quantifying the Difference Between Irons and Optics
Like most things, the topic of pistol optics divides people into two camps: the dot devotees and the iron purists. Not particularly helpful, but human nature. Anyway, if you follow my writing, you know that I am dot agnostic as I have and train with dots but still do the same with irons-only pistols. I... Continue Reading →
The Assassination and the Real Problem Exposed
