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. And, I would say that a majority of squared-away guys now carry AIWB, the concealment and speed benefits begin obvious. So, carrying on the side of your... Continue Reading →
Stay Informed: Recommended Resources for the Prepared
I take in an inordinate amount of information on a daily basis. While such overload is unnatural, and likely unhealthy, for the modern human being, I occupy my intake of such with information that is pertinent to our contemporary survival and security. In other words, I don’t watch cat videos or reality shows. I watch... Continue Reading →
The Utility of the Revolver in 2025
There is nothing new under the sun and the popularity of any firearms platform comes and goes in a cycle measured in decades. In the past several years there has been a resurgence in interest in the revolver. Perhaps many have newly discovered the benefits that the wheel gun offers, but I suspect this is...

Crime Stats vs. Threat Profile: Plan Correctly
It is important that we stay focused on reality, as it presents itself, rather than react to our world emotionally. Emotion is for the gun control idiots who think that infringing on the constitutional rights of the law abiding will, in any way, reduce homicide. For those here that are invested in facts, here are... Continue Reading →
Training with one Platform
I like guns, just like the next guy. As shooters, there is an inclination to acquire gear. It seems boring to use only one kind of gun when we have so much to choose from. 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

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 →

Selecting a Home Defense Handgun: Capability and Familiarity
Recently I wrote about selecting a primary carry gun and a deep concealment gun. I think almost all armed citizens need those two distinct carry choices to accommodate most situations and remain armed. This week, let’s look at another handgun that may not be mandatory, as your primary carry gun can likely fill this role,... Continue Reading →
Catholic School Shooting in Minneapolis: Understand the Threat
Anther disgusting, reprehensible, mass attack on a Christian institution this week. In this case, in Minneapolis, a trans/biological male fired through the windows of a church, killing an eight-year-old and a ten-year-old child, and wounding seventeen others. Trans individuals attacking houses of worship is an escalating trend, and avoiding the discussion will not mitigate the... Continue Reading →
Valuable Information on Terror Threat Preparedness
I was on the excellent Survival Dispatch show last night discussing preparation for this likely threat that we face as a nation. Lots of prepper talk, right up my ally, as you know. Sadly, I think this is coming. Hopefully not at the scale that we fear, but we live in dangerous times. Stay frosty:... Continue Reading →
