We had Annette Evans on the Concealed Carry Podcast several weeks ago. Annette is a particularly clear thinker as it pertains to a realistic approach for preparing for threats that are most pressing and likely. While her advice is especially helpful for women entering the fold of self-defense training, it is universal. I particularly like... Continue Reading →
Unless you live in make-believe world (which half our nation seems to do) you should realize that our state of affairs is deteriorating. The current political regime is, intentionally, destroying the nation by fostering unmitigated illegal invasion of the country. Not only can our economic system not absorb this influx, but the number of bad... Continue Reading →
Few movies offer anything worth seeing when it comes to real world self-defense, but there are a few exceptions. One such film is No Country for Old Men.

It appears that police did not enter quickly, waiting over half an hour, and they even held back parents who were trying to... Continue Reading →
Carry your gun, all the time. This is the advice that most of the respected firearms and self-defense trainers will offer. There is merit to this advice. Murphy’s law dictates that what can go wrong will go wrong, and if you carry a gun only 50% of the time, guess which 50% will most likely... Continue Reading →
I was once standing in the waiting room of a particular indoor range with the late, great, Todd Louis Green and we were watching the people in the bays fire their guns. Most were shooting typical self-defense handguns, with the occasional AR15 thrown in. The range was full, and not a single person was even... Continue Reading →
This past Tuesday night on the CCX2 show we had the pleasure of interviewing Stephen Willeford, the man who interdicted the active killer at the Southerland Springs Baptist Church. The interview is almost two hours long and full of amazing lessons and information. Beyond that, myself and the other hosts spoke with him for an... Continue Reading →
This past Tuesday night we had John Murphy of FPF Training join us to discuss criminal assault paradigm. I have met John several times in the past and I have actually taken his Street Encounter Skills class when it was a single day format, I reviewed that class here: Our discussion delves deep into the...
