Florida’s Everglades National Park is the largest wetland in North America, and home to endangered species like the Florida panther and West Indian manatee. A large wildfire is now threatening those animals’ habitat. The Highway 41 fire began on April 27, and authorities are struggling to contain it. What Happened The National Park Service (NPS) first learned of the fire on the evening of April 27, according to a press release. The U.S. Wildland Fire Service quickly responded with air and ground operations. As of midday on April 28, the fire had grown to 2,500 acres. Authorities closed several square…

It happens more often than I care to admit: I sit in my house watching those shows where people win free stuff – renovations, makeovers, etc. – and I think “that could be me.” But the crazy thing is that it really could. Or, instead, it could be you. Here’s how: Some folks at a friendly casting company are looking for a military family for a new home renovation show headed for HGTV. The show is not going to focus exclusively on military, but they want a military family for the pilot episode. As usual with this kind of thing,…
At the time of writing, the Springfield Lipsey’s Exclusive 10-8 Performance Master Class has fired just over one thousand rounds. A Return to the Platform I have been carrying the 10-8 Master Class full-time since my first impressions, shooting it almost daily. I like to use the first thousand rounds as a “get to know you” stage to really figure a gun out. Coming from a 12 oz J-frame, I’ve been spending a bit more time dry-firing the 10-8 to adjust to the platform. I have been a “1911 guy” for as long as I’ve been a “gun guy,” but…
I’ve never been tech-savvy. When it comes to gizmos and gadgets, I’m rarely enticed, mainly because I assume I won’t be able to work them or they’ll sit gathering dust in my closet. I didn’t jump on the smartphone bandwagon until 2019, and I won’t shy away from arguing for the superiority of landlines. But here’s my Catch 22. I love being outdoors and enjoy documenting my activities. A scenic run on a beautiful day? That’s something I’d share with my friends and family. An overhead wave and a perfect turn? Yeah, I’d love to show my grandkids that down…
House Republicans are advancing a funding bill for the Department of Justice that includes a major cut in funding to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives as well as measures meant to fully remove suppressors and short-barreled firearms from the regulatory framework of the National Firearms Act. 🚨BREAKING: Pro-2A wins in the FY27 CJS appropriations bill:✅ Cuts ATF budget by $285M✅ Defunds ATF’s illegal gun registry✅ Defunds EVERY Biden-era ATF rule✅ Prohibits NFA registration✅ Reduces NFA wait times✅ Prohibits gun buyback programs✅ Defunds “Red Flag” laws— Rep.

A Colorado activist in charge of an anti-gun and anti-violence organization called Heavy Hands, Heavy Hearts has been convicted of second-degree murder in the shooting death of a man at his son’s fifth birthday party. 47-year-old Lumumba Sayers Sr. was originally charged with first-degree murder in the killing of 28-year-old Malcolm Watson, who was shot while hosting a birthday party for his young son at a park in the Denver suburb of Commerce City on August 10, 2024. According to prosecutors, Sayers was seeking revenge for the murder of his son, Lumumba Sayers, Jr. who…
LONDON — In the world of diplomatic faux pas, it could have been a lot worse. At Tuesday’s state dinner honoring King Charles III and Queen Camilla, U.S. President Donald Trump said that during a private meeting earlier in the day the British monarch had agreed with him that Iran should never be allowed to have nuclear weapons. “We’re doing a little Middle East work right now … and we’re doing very well,” Trump told the audience. “We have militarily defeated that particular opponent, and we’re never going to let that opponent ever — Charles agrees with me, even more…
Standing at the top of the park jumps, it was my turn to ride in front of the camera. I would be sending the big jump line at Crested Butte Mountain Resort on a spring day in February. The unusually warm temperatures had the extreme terrain riding poorly due to icy conditions. But the terrain park, on a sunnier aspect, was perfectly soft. The local high school kids were out in force today, constantly putting down bigger tricks. At almost 30 years old, I have learned to approach the park a bit differently — no longer willing to take as…

Since the Virginia General Assembly approved a revised version of the bill last week, there’s been a whole lot of confusion about Virginia’s HB 1525, which raises the age to purchase handguns from 18 to 21 and requires the Virginia State Police to resume conducting background checks on private sales. Governor Abigail Spanberger’s amended version contained language that declared the act an emergency, which would allow it to take effect immediately, but the legislature did not approve the changes with a 4/5ths vote, which is supposedly what’s required in order for that “emergency” provision to be adopted. …
Remember when Sarah Brady’s heirs and the rest of the gun-control hacks insisted suppressors were sinister assassin tools that no decent American had any business owning? Pour one out for that talking point, because it’s officially dead. American gun owners just buried it under a mountain of registered cans. The ATF’s NFA Division has processed more than one million forms in the first four months of 2026 alone, according to numbers flagged last week by the American Suppressor Association. As of April 23, the Division had cleared seven figures of paperwork — and over half of that pile is Form…
Everyone knows the importance of water in a survival situation. You can only survive without it for three days, but you’ll feel severely dehydrated after just one. This is why water needs to be one of your biggest priorities. You should stock up on two gallons per day per person, but you should also know how to find and collect water. Why? Because disasters happen when you least expect, and you could be away from home when the next one strikes. Or worse, your home—along with your water supply—could be destroyed. In case either of these things happens, you need…
Civilian Marksmanship Program is bringing back a piece of American military history and demand is already heating up. The CMP has announced availability of CMP M1903A3 rifles, part of its ongoing military surplus sales program. These rifles, originally issued to U.S. forces in World War I, World War II, and Korea, remain some of the most iconic bolt-action service rifles ever produced. But before anyone rushes to place an order, there are a few things worth understanding. A Historic Rifle With a Modern Path to Ownership The CMP M1903A3 rifles currently available fall under the “reclaimed rifle” category. That means:…
This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge under the title: Trump Not Open To Tehran’s Latest Proposal As ‘Tank Tops’ Loom, Claims Iran “Informed Us They Are In State Of Collapse.” Summary Trump TS claim: Tehran has informed Washington they are in a “state of collapse” and that the Iranians want the US to “open the Hormuz Strait” – as ‘tank tops’ loom. Trump doesn’t appear open to Iran’s proposal, which hinges on the US naval blockade ending & nuclear issue being pushed to future negotiations (CNN). First crude-laden Japanese tanker from Saudi port exits Hormuz Strait successfully without Iranian interference.…
New York makes it incredibly burdensome to exercise your right to keep and bear arms, but to add insult to injury lawmakers in the Empire State have also made it illegal for those outside of certain “eligible professions” to possess body armor; a purely defensive article that the state claims is too dangerous for average, everyday folks like you and me to possess. Firearms Policy Coalition and several individual plaintiffs are challenging that ban, and on Monday the state of New York issued its reply to FPC’s motion for summary judgment. In it, Attorney General…
There’s always noise in the gun world. Caliber wars. Brand loyalty. “My setup is better than yours.” You know the drill. But every once in a while, something pops up that’s actually worth paying attention to. That’s exactly what caught the attention of Tuber Hegshot87, who recently broke down a pretty unusual situation brewing between Sturm, Ruger & Co. and Beretta. Do you think Beretta is trying to take over Ruger? And right out of the gate, he framed it like so: “Very rarely do you see disputes like this where one company is coming in, infiltrating another, and basically…
Images by the author Most red dots today are built around one goal: lighter and smaller. The Griffin GHS goes in the opposite direction. It’s heavier. It’s overbuilt. And the second you pick it up, you know it’s not trying to compete with minimalist optics. The real question is simple: Does that extra weight actually give you something in return? Features and Specifications Here’s a good place to list those… Features 3 MOA Dot Reticle 1 MOA Adjustment Increments 10 Brightness Settings (8 Daytime, 2 NV) Parallax Set at 25yds Flip-Up Plastic Lens Covers Integrated Picatinny Mount (Co-Witness Height) Shockproof…
