Not long ago I wrote an article speaking of “the compromise gun.” I propose the idea that shooters are best served by minimizing the guns they use and train with to only those that are needed as rotating platforms can undermine your skills development. However, most shooters need a compromise gun, whether it be a... Continue Reading →
I have carried medical gear on my person on a daily basis for quite a few years now. The primary medical device that is always with me is a tourniquet. I have carried compromise versions of this tool in the past, but as of late I have made the dedication to carry only a combat-proven... Continue Reading →

I wrote an article several years ago that illustrated my belief that the average armed citizen is best served with three different defensive firearms: namely, a primary handgun, a small deep concealment handgun, and a defensive long gun.
