If you’ve been kicking yourself for only grabbing one surplus 1911 pistol from the Civilian Marksmanship Program back when prices were lower and supplies looked endless… well, CMP just gave collectors and shooters a pretty solid surprise. As of May 2025, the CMP has officially doubled the lifetime purchase limit on surplus M1911 and M1911A1 pistols from two guns to four. For anyone unfamiliar, the CMP 1911 program offers authentic U.S. military-issued 1911 pistols transferred from Army inventory. These aren’t reproductions or clone guns. They’re real-deal service pistols that were carried, rebuilt, mixed, refinished, and dragged through decades of American…
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) on Tuesday announced a new clinical trial of methylenedioxymethamphetamine-assisted therapy, more commonly known as MDMA, to evaluate the safety and efficacy when treating current and former military personnel for severe mental health disorders including posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and alcohol use disorder. The latest announcement comes on the heels of a strong federal government-wide push across multiple branches to study and, ultimately, lawfully recognize different modalities like MDMA, psilocybin, LSD and ibogaine. Legislation has been crafted on bipartisan levels in both the U.S. House and Senate to accelerate the pace for which the VA,…
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the military to intensify its attacks on Lebanon. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) has now been commanded to increase the strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon to deliver what Netanyahu has described as a “decisive blow” to the armed group. This order is problematic, as it came during the ongoing ceasefire between the Jewish state and the Lebanese government in Beirut. This ceasefire was agreed upon in mid-April after more than a month of fighting and was extended earlier in May. The escalation in obvious violation of the ceasefire could further complicate indirect talks…
As of May 2026, twenty-nine states have enacted Constitutional Carry.What about across the rest of the country? The movement has stalled, since red states with GOP trifectas have all gotten the job done. Constitutional Carry’s advance has paused since South Carolina finally approved the reform on March 7, 2024. Of course, we shouldn’t give a round of applause to the Palmetto State, since the long-lasting legacy of RINOs did everything they could to thwart meaningful, conservative turn rights reforms. But they did get the job done. Nothing has budged since. Republicans are facing progressive backlash…
Listen—the end of live-service support for Destiny 2 is frustrating, and there’s no denying that. We’re watching a game that, for many of us, occupied all or at least a significant portion of our last decade in gaming, so the aggravation is not only understandable, it’s entirely justifiable. However, regardless of how painful the inevitable end of Destiny 2 is, and despite how justified we are to feel this heartbroken over the situation, there’s really no excuse, nor is there reason, to spew hateful speech at Bungie, as if the studio is solely responsible. It’s easy to see all of…
It’s been a tough couple of years for Stellantis. The world’s fourth-largest automaker lost more than $26 billion in 2025 and this week revealed a $70 billion turnaround plan that will see it roll out at least 60 new vehicles by the end of the decade. The “Fastlane 2030” strategy could be good news for those who take it slower off-road. “Our brands are our strongest assets,” Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa told investors, analysts, and anyone else dialing into Thursday’s daylong presentation of the company’s new, $70 billion Fastlane 2030 turnaround plan. The fourth-largest automaker on the planet, Stellantis, comprises…
Not a day seems to go by on social media where someone in the US doesn’t get a lecture from a European about how our gun control laws, or lack thereof, are some kind of social rot and that we’re completely wrong for not following their lead. After all, those deaths from gunfire are preventable, right? How dare we not take those precautions as they did!Well, I’m sorry that I’m not tripping over myself to “prevent gun deaths” by making it harder to defend myself, while they have people dropping like flies because they can’t…

As any business owner will tell you, “if you build it, they will come” isn’t necessarily the case. Having a product or service that people want is criticial, but creative marketing is also pretty important in terms of getting folks through the door. One range in the Chicago suburbs appears to have hit the bullseye with one of its offerings. New York Post reporter Georgia Worrell recently wrote about her first-hand experience at a “Pistols and Pilates” class at Eagle Sports Range in Oak Forest, Illinois, where two dozen women spent an hour on…
What does one’s race have to do with one’s right to keep and bear arms? Well, nothing. The Second Amendment covers all American citizens and legal immigrants. Asking race is, at most, an identifier to help differentiate a black John Smith from a white one, and that’s about it. Unfortunately for us all, that wasn’t how many people viewed it back in the day. They thought anyone who wasn’t white was someone who needed to be disarmed. Whether it was because they didn’t want to be overthrown or they just thought non-whites (and Catholics, for…
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea launched a close-range ballistic missile and other weapons toward the sea on Tuesday, South Korea’s military said, days after the leaders of Russia and China voiced their opposition to Western pressures on North Korea. The missile fired from Jongju, a city near the North’s west coast, flew about 80 kilometers (50 miles), South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said. North Korea launched other kinds of projectiles, it said, but didn’t elaborate. South Korean media, citing the military, reported the other weapons systems mobilized included multiple rocket launch systems. The reports said that the…

Two individuals part of a military advocacy organization’s 100,000-plus clients received burnt envelopes in the mail this past weekend, causing concerns about whether the incidents were coincidences or part of a broader, orchestrated attack on the outspoken group. Images of the burnt envelopes, received this past weekend and shared exclusively with Military.com, reveal how a man in Florida and a woman in West Virginia received the letters as part of a routine donation mailer from the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, known as MRFF. The paper envelopes were seared with similar patterns and delivered thousands of miles away, hours apart, from…

The D-Day exhibit inside Fort Campbell’s new Tennessee Wings of Liberty Museum does not begin on the beach. It begins behind it. Inside the museum that officially opened this month is the story of June 6, 1944, told by the soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division who jumped into Normandy before dawn, landing behind Utah Beach to help open the way for the amphibious forces that followed. The framing is intentional. The museum is dedicated not only to Fort Campbell’s units; rather, to the history of “vertical envelopment,” or the Army’s term for striking from above—whether by parachute, helicopter or…
