2026 might prove to be the most transformative year for the suppressor in the industry’s history. From observing the 2026 SHOT Show, it became abundantly clear that manufacturers are doubling down on suppressor innovation as we approach mainstream adoption in the US. Three noteworthy trends emerged at SHOT this year: drastically reduced cost, heat management, and over-the-barrel designs. The 3D-Printed Revolution The suppressor industry witnessed an unprecedented number of new manufacturers at SHOT Show 2026, with dozens of new and established companies unveiling affordable 3D-printed suppressor lines. This surge wasn’t coincidental—it resulted from two converging factors that have fundamentally altered…
The United Kingdom has some of the most extensive gun control laws on the planet. You can own a firearm, but for most people, it’s only a theoretical possibility, not an actual reality, which is how the British elite want it. Guns for me but not for thee, and all that.But, as I’ve pointed out on numerous occasions, the truth is that the only people in the UK deprived of guns are those who represent absolutely no problem should they own guns.On the other hand, creating guns for criminals is relatively trivial, as this incident…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream under the title: No Deal With Iran! An Apocalyptic “Regime Change War” Appears To Be Imminent, And Everyone Is Bracing For The Worst It appears that an apocalyptic war is about to begin in the Middle East, and yet most people living in the Western world don’t seem alarmed by this at all. But they should be, because once the missiles start flying, the death and destruction that we will witness will deeply shock the entire globe. The nuts that are running Iran fully understand…
When the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals tossed out Ali Danial Hemani’s conviction for possessing a firearm while an “unlawful” drug user, it did so on Second Amendment grounds. In defending that decision, though, several Second Amendment groups are looking beyond the right to keep and bear arms. I covered the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association’s brief earlier today, which raises objections to Section 922(g)(3) under both the Fifth and Eighth Amendments. The Firearms Policy Coalition is also putting a non-2A argument front and center in its amicus brief; namely, that Congress has…
There was a time when Americans believed campaign promises were supposed to mean something. Adorable, right. Today, we get DLC civil rights, subscription-based freedoms, and a Department of Justice that treats the Constitution like a Terms of Service agreement nobody actually reads. Welcome to the Trump–Bondi era of gun policy, where the Second Amendment is loudly declared a “first-class right”… while quietly being shoved into a filing cabinet labeled “We’ll Circle Back.” Here’s the absurd part: We’re watching a supposedly pro–Second Amendment administration defend the National Firearms Act in court, while gun-control groups file briefs on the same side, while…

On June 17, 1863, Col. Luigi Palma di Cesnola was forced to watch his men get slaughtered near the village of Aldie, Virginia. Just hours earlier, his superior officer had placed him under arrest for protesting the promotion of a less experienced officer. His saber and sidearm had been stripped away.But the 30-year-old Italian immigrant could not stand idle as his cavalrymen charged the Confederate guns. He broke away, jumped on a horse without a weapon and rallied his men to again charge the enemy. His actions that day would earn him the Medal of Honor. He was the first…
I grew up rummaging through my grandfather’s relics. I was constantly looking in the nooks and crannies where he may have tucked away a treasure. Being a curious little boy growing up watching MacGyver, Indiana Jones, and Rambo, I eventually found a knife. I didn’t know it then, but it marked a watershed moment that shaped me. I would find other knives of his, but one of the first was an old jack knife. Over the years, I’ve become a devout fan of locking pocket knives that deploy quickly with one hand. But I will always have a place in…
Springfield has a reputation of crafting the firearms of battle from their 1911s to M1As and even modern renditions of the AR-15s of old. They also added into their arsenal in recent years the iconic Browning Hi-Power design – the P35 – which Springfield dubbed theirs as the SA-35. Now, at SHOT Show 2026 they announced a new Polished Blued SA-35 for even more curb appeal. Springfield Armory Polished Blued SA-35 9mm The Springfield Armory Polished Blued SA-35 9mm (SKU: HP9202) has an MSRP of $799 making it a bargain considering the parkerized version of Springfield’s SA-35 retails for the same…

You’ve probably seen plenty of builds that feature a partially or fully “tucked” or recessed suppressor. Aside from a vast majority of them looking very cool, the real reason for tucking a suppressor is most often cited as being in an effort to shorten the overall length of the gun. There are many other good reasons to do this, especially if you’re looking for a more compact package. Still, as we’ll discuss in this article, not every gun needs a tuck job, and in many cases, it’s actually sub-optimal in almost every respect except for the reduced overall length. Today,…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. Introduction: The Silver Market Seizure – Opportunity Amidst the Chaos The physical silver market is experiencing a historic infrastructure meltdown as prices shatter all records, recently piercing the $100 per ounce barrier for the first time in history. This parabolic move—a tripling in value since early 2025—has triggered a market cataclysm years in the making, finally revealed by the collision of explosive industrial demand and utterly constrained supply. As reported in Natural News, silver’s surge past $110 per ounce represents a seismic shift in the world of money, acting…
All insulated pants are designed for days when temperatures are expected to stay cold. Wearing baselayers underneath pants is my preferred layering strategy. But sometimes, a pair of pants lined with a soft, warm fabric just hits right on its own. It’s like wearing sweatpants disguised as regular trousers. That’s why I got my hands on a pair of the Royal Robbins Billy Goat BC Pants. Shoveling snow and dog walks weren’t planned testing metrics for these fleece-lined hiking pants, but that experience made me appreciate their versatility and comfort beyond the trails. Obviously, hiking is the most relevant use…
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…
With the Los Angeles Summer Olympics just 2 years away, we’ve officially entered “OTQ season.” That familiar rush is on as competitive marathoners chase the 2:16:00 (men) and 2:37:00 (women) standards needed to qualify for the U.S. Olympic Team Trials. And if you still think of Salomon as a trail-only brand, its new S/LAB Phantasm 3 ($280) should put that notion to rest. The brand now fields a legitimately competitive road roster, with several of its athletes aiming squarely at Olympic qualification. To support that effort and to further advance its road-racing bona fides, Salomon asked a simple question with…
While the bottom line is that California’s ban on switchblades is still enforceable, today’s decision by a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals panel should keep hope alive for Knife Rights, Inc. and supporters of their lawsuit to strike down the prohibition. In their ruling, the panel “determined that switchblades are relevantly similar to Bowie knives and other weapons in terms of the concerns they pose to legislatures (the “why”), and California’s concealed carry prohibition is relevantly similar to the manner in which historical legislatures responded to these concerns (the“how”).”The total ban on switchblades carried in public…
Damage on the AT; (photo/USFS) Last week’s winter storm hit millions of Americans hard and inflicted significant damage on one of the country’s most iconic thru-hikes. Georgia’s recent winter storm left fallen trees and hazardous conditions on over 70 miles of the Appalachian Trail (AT). Here’s what you need to know. The Impact The AT crosses many states that were hit by the storm. However, reports from the U.S. Forest Service and Appalachian Trail Conservancy (ATC) indicate that Georgia’s portion of the AT fared the worst. According to the ATC, as of Jan. 29, forest roads that provide trail access…
Hawaii has been under a microscope because of their anti-Second Amendment stance, and lawmakers are unrepentant in their efforts to undermind a fundamental right. On Jan. 20, 2026 attorney Alan Beck delivered masterful and sound arguments when challenging Hawaii’s so-called “sensitive location” law. Wolford v. Lopez seeks to undo Hawaii’s flipping of the default firearm possession rules; their law makes it so carriers must get affirmative permission to carry a firearm on private property open to the public. Three days after Beck minced Hawaii’s flawed arguments, a bill was introduced that would force all businesses…
A lifted Bentley with a go-kart on the roof? The Bentley Bentayga X concept is an ultra-fancy off-roader that has been cranked up for clearance, beefed up for strength, and then had the strangest cargo we’ve seen in a long time added to the roof. All this was revealed at one of the coolest ice race events in the world. A Bentley Speed Model for Off-Pavement Use (Photo/Bentley) When it comes to on-road performance, Bentley has things covered. From its Continental GT and Bentayga Speed models to the hilarious “lightweight” Supersports, there are plenty of half-million–dollar options. If you want…
