I wrote a review some time ago on the Crossbreed Modular Belly Band, which I bought for use with my Ruger LCR. I use a belly band almost exclusively as my deep concealment option as I have found it the best way to carry under tucked-in clothing, or while wearing gym cloths. I found that... Continue Reading →
A while back I moved to appendix carry exclusively. The benefits of wearing your gun forward of your hips are numerous. Likewise, having a knife forward of the hips, accessible to the support hand, also makes good sense. The mechanics of the human body clearly function best when we conduct tasks in front of us...

Being able to mitigate a heated situation before it turns violent is a skill you should have, especially if you go armed. This seems to be of ever-more pressing importance in modern society. It is also of great concern currently, in the midst of this pandemic, where we find seemingly normal people getting irate over... Continue Reading →
I have a love-hate relationship with the small-frame revolver: I love it because it is the gun I can carry when I need to dress in a way that does not facilitate concealment of my double-stack auto loader. I hate it because I would far prefer to have my auto on me should I actually... Continue Reading →
I have been carrying the Ka Bar TDI knife for a couple of years now, on an almost daily basis. As I have trained more in hand-to-hand/weapons integration skills I have come to embrace the obvious benefits of a center-line carried fixed blade. Since I believe in always carrying a knife anyway, as an essential... Continue Reading →
As a nation, we might come out of this pandemic with several million new gun owners. Does this offer me hope that we will have several million new gun voters who consider the 2A when going to the polls? Nope. The sort of person who has never armed themselves before, and now only buys a... Continue Reading →
Guns are machines and as such they can malfunction. I have trained with a lot of people and it seems every instructor puts his or her own spin on how to clear malfunctions. It almost appears that malfunction clearance is a badge of honor in which to stake out your own niche. This is a... Continue Reading →
The concealed handgun has two primary attributes: First, it gives you a weapon that extends in function beyond contact distance which can be carried on the person. Second, it gives you the ability to keep said weapon concealed on your person. If you open carry you throw away the second attribute, which is a significant... Continue Reading →
Let me say from the very beginning, before anyone gets hysterical and accuses me of being an inti-gunner (imagine): I think every American that believes in individual liberty should own and know how to use an AR15 or similar rifle, and should have the magazines, accessories, body armor, and plate carrier to go along with...

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. So, is it... Continue Reading →
