Virginia isn’t the only state where Democrat lawmakers are trying to ram through a bill banning commonly owned guns and magazines this year. In New Mexico, where lawmakers are 10 days in to their 30-day session, several Democrats are pushing SB 17; a bill that would not only ban all gas-operated semi-automatic centerfire rifles and pistols that can accept detachable magazines, but would subject the state’s federally licensed gun dealers to an onslaught of state-level mandates as well. SB 17 passed out of its first committee earlier this week on a party line vote, despite…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. Introduction A palpable tension grips the nation in 2026. The cheers from some quarters for the extrajudicial actions of federal agents signal more than partisan victory; they herald a fundamental rupture in America’s social contract. The rule of law, due process, and constitutional protections are being sacrificed on the altar of tribal rage, pushing the country toward its second civil war. This descent did not begin with a single event, but with the abandonment of principle. When citizens applaud state violence against their neighbors, they unwittingly sign their own…
Texas has long had a reputation as being one of the most pro-gun states in the country, but it was largely overblown up until recently. Before they passed constitutional carry, carry permits required training, for one thing, which is more infringement than many other states had. But that was then, this is now.Now, it just about lives up to that reputation, and in the wake of the…um…discussion about whether you can bring a gun to a protest or not, the governor there makes it very clear what he thinks, and it’s a very good thing…

Minoru “Mino” Ohye has a truly unique story not matched by many other veterans. Not only did Ohye turn 100 years old recently and is one of the last remaining World War II veterans, but he also served for both the Japanese Imperial Army and the U.S. Army. Ohye was born in Sacramento, California in 1926. However, after his father was killed in a fishing accident, Ohye and his brother were sent to Japan to live with their extended family, according to CBS Sacramento. At just 13 years old, Ohye was forced into military service, joining the Japanese Imperial Army’s youth division.…

If you ever needed a clean, real-world example of how broken New York’s gun laws are, this is it. Green Bay Packers offensive lineman Rasheed Walker was arrested at LaGuardia Airport after doing exactly what responsible gun owners are told to do: he declared a legally owned firearm in his checked luggage. The gun was lawfully owned in Wisconsin.It was locked in a gun case.It was declared to the airline. And that was enough for New York to slap the cuffs on him anyway. New York is not a gun-friendly place. Walker should’ve known the risks involved with bringing a…
In the world of night vision and NVG accessories, there’s two extremes. Cheap airsoft gear that won’t last, and expensive, quality equipment. On rare occasion, a company offers an option that’s both affordable, and durable. That’s the price point the Holosun LS321g resides in, but does the product deliver the quality? Let’s dig in. Tech Specs: Class IIIa visible green laser @ 5mW Class II infrared laser IR illuminator 7075 aluminum anodized housing Quick release rail mount CR123 battery From 8-5000 hours battery life depending on mode Activation button and included pressure pad IP67 immersion rating 8.6 ounces 3.6″x2.2″x1.6″ Use…
I’ve never quite understood the whole murder-suicide thing, with the exception of something like the end of The Mist. That one, I get. Beyond that? It’s never made a lick of sense. While I don’t condone it, I can at least understand wanting someone else dead. I understand being convinced the world is better off without you, even though that’s almost never true. But at least anti-gun states like California don’t have to worry about someone having a number of guns they can use in a murder-suicide, right? I mean, even if it doesn’t make…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream. We were expecting global events to accelerate in 2026, but what we have witnessed throughout the month of January so far has been quite a shock to the system. Everywhere around us, things are going totally haywire. Gold and silver are skyrocketing in price, we are on the verge of a cataclysmic war with Iran, conflict has erupted on the streets of major U.S. cities, and we just keep getting hammered by natural disaster after natural disaster. So many things are happening that I couldn’t…
Stockpiling is pretty much the beginning and ending of prepping. I say that because it’s generally the first thing any of us do. We often start out stockpiling even before deciding that we’re going to become preppers.At the same time, most of us are still adding to our stockpiles long after we finish all our other prepping projects. It seems like we never truly finish the process of stockpiling. Part of this is because stockpiling is rather expensive, especially if you want to stockpile enough supplies to last a full year. While there is no guarantee that a year’s worth will…
Death Valley National Park’s fragile desert ecosystem took a major hit this week. A truck violated the law by going off-road and damaging several rare plant species. The authorities are seeking the public’s help to find the driver. Now, the park service is asking for any information that could identify the culprits. Death Valley National Park Vandalism: The Incident According to a National Park Service (NPS) press release, on Dec. 17, a white 2021 Toyota Tacoma illegally drove off-road for 5 miles in the Eureka Dunes area of the California national park. The tracks the truck left on the dunes;…
The headline above doesn’t refer to the shooting of Alex Pretti, at least not directly. It’s about what’s happening in Minneapolis, Minnesota now, and it’s absolutely terrifying to the gun control lobby. Firearm instructors say business is booming over the past few weeks, even before Pretti’s death. David Taylor, CEO of Stock & Barrel Gun Clubs, tells NBC News that the club’s concealed carry classes generally bring in “hundreds” of people, but interest has grown fourfold in just the past two weeks. That does not appear to be an anomaly. Five firearm instructors in the Minneapolis area…
As duck hunters, we love our gear. We take pride in loading up and carrying as much as possible to the blind. But some days favor the mobile, minimalistic waterfowlers. Enter the KUIU DeltaStorm 800 Submersible Waistpack. Designed for hunters who must keep their gear dry in the wettest conditions, this waterproof waistpack will replace your traditional blind bag or backpack. Throughout this duck season, I’ve trusted this pack to keep some of my most delicate and valuable gear protected while hunting private and public land. When a minimalistic approach was needed, I buckled the DeltaStorm 800 around my waist…
When Alex Pretti was killed, I never thought it would devolve into a debate about the Second Amendment where Republicans sound like Democrats and vice versa.President Trump himself has made some questionable comments regarding Pretti and his decision to carry a firearm with extra magazines to that particular protest/interference effort. I don’t agree with him at least as he phrased itLee Williams wrote at The Gun Writer about how Trump’s support for the Second Amendment is being questioned.President Donald L. Trump was very clear Tuesday when addressing a gaggle of reporters who were asking questions…
United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that Washington could “preemptively” attack Iran. These comments come as U.S. ruler Donald Trump sends a “beautiful armada” of ships to the Middle East and conducts days-long military drills in the region. U.S. Begins Multi-Day Military Drills In The Middle East Rubio acknowledged that any attempt at regime change in Iran would prove difficult. His statement is also in line with Trump’s philosophy, as the threats against Tehran continue to ramp up. While speaking during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Wednesday, Rubio said it was “wise and prudent” to maintain…
Innovation in outdoor gear can often feel like a game of limbo: How low can you go? Or to be more specific: How lightweight can a piece of gear be and still remain functional? That threshold seems ever closer with the debut of HOKA’s 2026 update of the Cielo X1 3.0. Now in its third iteration since the model’s debut in 2024, this super shoe aimed at long-distance running has dropped more weight than a supermodel prepping for the catwalk — and it was already pretty darn lightweight to begin with. When AllGear Editorial Director Sean McCoy tested out the…
Dear Patriot,Our ask is simple: Help us stand with ICE.The men and women of ICE who are arresting and deporting dangerous illegals across the country need our support now more than ever before. With the left-wing media and Democratic politicians calling ICE President Trump’s “Gestapo,” “Nazis,” “the SS,” “fascists,” and more, the truth needs to be told about who’s really creating the chaos and mayhem in Democrat-run sanctuary cities and who’s trying to keep the public safe.The radical Left’s dangerous rhetoric has now resulted in the deaths of two Americans. Due to Democratic politicians and…
Canada’s long-running experiment with compensated gun confiscation is running headfirst into a wall—and this time, it’s coming from inside the country. According to Canadian media reports highlighted by the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, fully half of Canada’s provinces—along with the Northwest Territories and Yukon—are refusing to participate in the federal government’s much-touted gun “buyback” program. In short: Ottawa wants provinces to help collect banned firearms, and a growing number of them are saying, no thanks. CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb shot straight, calling the provincial pushback “long overdue” and describing the buyback for what it…
Jacob Grey Firearms is a manufacturer I’ve had my eye on since getting my hands on their TWC Black last year, a double-stack 1911 that ran flawlessly for me, suppressed and unsuppressed, right out of the box in my June 2025 review. I found the quality and performance remarkable, but soon after discovered that the company’s origins ran deep in the close-tolerance aerospace component business, which is where such extreme attention to detail is no stranger. My TWC Black is the second iteration of Jacob Grey’s double-stack 1911-style handguns, following its predecessor, the TWC9. Since then, the company has released…
