When I win the Mega Millions, which is about 1.6 billion at the time of this writing, I am going to buy guns. Five guns. These guns. This morning, when I was purchasing the Mega Millions ticket that is definitely going to be the winner (seriously, the rest of you might as well just not…
Looking for an inexpensive, easy-to-install reflex red-dot sight? The ability to quickly and reliably acquire a sight picture is key to shooting success, but sadly it isn’t always quite as easy as focusing on the front sight. Whether you’re new to shooting and growing increasingly confused by all the advice about sight picture and hold…
Every time the mainstream media covers Second Amendment issues, we get to hear the “paranoia” slander… …And every time an actual disaster hits, and armed citizens are forced to ensure their own safety, the gun banners go silent. The article I linked in the last sentence is pretty much straightforward news reporting, but it’s an…
These are even better cocktail-party conversation-starters than my beer helmet. Given that we have about eight centuries’ worth of firearms history under our belts, it stands to reason that at least some of it is weird and difficult to believe. In fact, it’s actually sort of remarkable how little true strangeness populates the forgotten corners…
This is a situation in which I don’t mind going green (as long as I can also go red, white, infrared…) It may be the case that Viridian Weapon Technologies began by offering green laser solutions for daytime shooting, but now they’re expanding into the night with their new tactical-grade V Series Long-Range Illuminators. Suitable…
Are you a woman buying your first gun solo? Congratulations! Women who are considering buying their first gun for self-defense face a dizzying array of choices, most of which would more or less serve their purposes. Unfortunately, they’re also faced with a dizzying array of other people’s opinions, much of it foolishness. If you’re a…
There’s actually no good reason why liberals shouldn’t support hunting—or do it themselves. It’s unfortunate that many folks on the left side of the political spectrum have a reflexively negative opinion of hunting, because (much like the broader issues surrounding the Second Amendment), it’s a freedom and a birthright that they possess in the same…
Miltary utility, civilian precision—it’s a revolution in all respects. Steyr’s hot new bolt-action Monobloc rifle, available in Spring 2019, is set to delight armed defenders, hunters, and target shooters alike. This sweet new bolt gun from the legendary Austrian gunmaker boasts an all-metal “monobloc” construction in which the barrel and housing are all one piece…hence…
Projection isn’t just a way to get your voice heard… …Projection is, of course, a psychological term used to describe a maladaptive way to process feelings that make us uncomfortable: “projecting” them onto someone else. That’s what has always struck me the hardest about some of the things that anti-gun activists will say in unguarded…
Cat videos made the Internet…but gun videos made it great. There are some truly wonderful gun videos out there, from simple how-to pieces from Brownell’s, to advice, to dazzling displays of exhibition shooting. These, however, are not those videos. No, these are the videos that find their inevitable way into my inbox courtesy of all…
Did something newsworthy happen on Saturday? BECAUSE I CAN’T TELL. It was, as we’ve already been told ad nauseum, a Day That Would Go Down In History: Kavanaugh’s appointment to the Supreme Court was confirmed on Saturday, October 6, 2018, by a razor-thin margin. It’s indeed a victory for pro-Second Amendment activism; after all, the…
What do you need most in a big-game gun? Steyr recently introduced a brand-new big-game gun, the Carbon CL II rifle, and they clearly designed it around the needs of big-game hunters who aren’t afraid to go way, way off the beaten path in pursuit of the toughest-to-reach game animals. We’re not necessarily saying the…
