Y'all may remember the discussion from 2015 of the conflict between theater goers that escalated from words to bag of popcorn throwing to gunfire by retired police captain Curtis Reeves. Well, apparently Reeves feared for his life (or so is claimed) and the jury believed him and found him not...

Okay, so N-vision has produced a new, ultra high end thermal weapon sight with laser range finder. However, the body of the optic is this weird plasticky, mottled, ugly garbage-looking that in previous years I have come to associate with cheap products. What is it and is it now really good...

Maybe because the firing pin strike is not reasonably well centered and is off to one side. A straight-on image of the base of the case would be more telling.

2019 was a pretty good year for me doing hog control on various properties in Texas and it was nice to have a final good hunt at the end of the year. Two of my properties had current hog issues that I had been trying to resolve, mostly picking off singles, but this night turned out much better...

I looked online and didn't find an answer for this. I got plenty of info on lengths, but not diameter. For those of you with expandable batons, what is the diameter of the grip portion of your baton?

This is really interesting. ATN is in the news because their electronic scopes are apparently being illegally exported. These scopes have the obsidian 4 {computer} core and apparently include night vision and thermal scopes, including weapon sights and handheld spotters. The Feds want all the...

Here is an interesting poll. As a poll, it is fraught with the biases that come with such things, but the numbers don't seem unrealistic. It is interesting to see where someone has at least tried to address the issue of how often folks carry. The basic gist is this... 12.3% of Americans...

Strange story. It seems there was an explosion and fire at Midwest Ammunition, St. Clair Township, Ohio. http://midwestammunition.com/ This was possibly due to one of the employees welding at the time. 4 people were injured including the welder (2 people burned, 2 smoke inhalation)...

Interesting police shooting. The call came in about a guy on drugs, armed with a knife and a gun. This is the released police pursuit. Full Video Here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blBjSoexoDw&feature=youtu.be The probie was driving. His training officer was the passenger. Story...

HiPoint carbines are inexpensive little carbines that feel cheap, but in my experience, seem to shoot very well despite their reputation. This guy contacted HiPoint and said he was experiencing accuracy issues with his 995TS 9mm carbine. Apparently, he wasn't even on paper anymore. So he sent...

Query/Problem: Any body have any experience with 1911s and molle holsters? I bought a generic Condor that looked like it would work, and it does, sort of, but it isn't something I want to run with long term. I need a molle holster that fits my 1911 properly. And make/model suggestions...

I had the honor of taking JohnKSa hog hunting on Monday night. It was the 2nd time in several years that I have managed to get him to come hunt with me, the first time being a bust. I was bound and determined we would get him a hog on this trip. We started off with a session at the range to...

I hunted this spot on the previous night and had killed one sow and the rest of her sounder ran into the brush. As I expected there was livestock in the pasture, I could not fire into the brush after the runners, even if I had a decent shot. I just didn't know what was behind them. Later...

...and shoots a bar patron when he tried to pick it up. Obviously, it was a bad grab. https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/03/us/dancing-fbi-agent-gun-discharge/index.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OT6j2Adi2uk I put this in tactics and training because of the aspect of what to do with a dropped...

I have a property I do hog and predator control on during most of the warmer months, never around deer season when the place is leased. This year, they called early. Ben and I have already hit this property several times and the hogs just keep coming. We carried in a couple camp chairs to...

I have been using some very nice brass catchers on my AR15-style rifles for several years now. They are made by Tactical Brass Recovery. For those that haven't seen my work, I am out hunting 2-3 nights a week and so my rig is in out of the the rifle bag, in and out of the truck, and goes...

With all the hype to arm school teachers, particularly in Florida, the argument is made more difficult when one of the Parkland teachers (Stoneman Douglas High School) who volunteered to be armed later left his gun in a restroom over the weekend. It was found and discharged in the restroom by a...

Well, I didn't get to shoot anything last night, but I did rescue a deer. She was caught up in the fence, body across the top wire, hind legs having going through between the top wire and the next wire. They could not reach the ground. She was exhausted and in considerable distress. Not my...
