So, as a moderate prepper myself I am compelled to broach this subject. As of now there seems to be two extremes concerning the emerging spread of Coronavirus: those who are already labeling it a pandemic, and those who say it is not an issue, less problem then even the common flu.

If I could only have three tools of preparedness and personal protection it would be a handgun, a blade, and a good light. The three pictured here are my favorites of each and represent my daily carry. In particular, this is a Glock 26 Gen 3, a Ka Bar TDI knife, and a Streamlight Protac... Continue Reading →

I have been a fan of, and carrier of, the Ka Bar TDI knife for quite some time now. I am not a knife guru by any means, though I have some training in edged weapons, but I consider a knife a must-carry rescue tool. Therefore, since it is an essential tool, I also consider... Continue Reading →
After many years of carrying concealed I have concluded that there are five tools that I insist upon carrying at all times legally possible.
