If you’ve spent any serious time behind a suppressed firearm, you’ve either burned yourself, nearly burned yourself, or developed the kind of cautious respect for hot metal that takes a good scare to earn. You may also know the frustration of heat mirage rising off a hot can and ruining an otherwise clean scope picture. For many years, the suppressor industry’s answer to heat was essentially “wait.” Or strap a cover on it. Neither solution is particularly satisfying when you’re on the clock, whether that clock is measured in shooting strings at a match, minutes in a hunting blind, or…
Let me start by saying that I’m grateful for what President Trump and his administration have done for gun rights. They’ve already done more to defend the Second Amendment than any administration in my lifetime, and I really do appreciate that. But we also need to acknowledge that the bar wasn’t that difficult for the administration to clear. It’s not so much that they’ve been that great, but that everyone who came before them sucked even worse. That’s it.And while I can appreciate what they’ve done, that doesn’t mean I’m beholden in some way to…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. It is difficult to believe the pace at which global events are now moving. Apocalyptic threats are being thrown around recklessly, and severe damage is being done to the global economic system every single day. A lot of people still seem to think that economic conditions will snap back to normal once the war ends, and that is because they don’t understand the level of destruction that has already taken place. Even if the war ends tomorrow and commercial traffic starts flowing freely through the Strait of…
As things currently stand, the tide is largely against gun grabbers in much of the country. More than half of the states have some form of permitless carry, the Department of Justice is going after at least some local and state governments over their anti-gun measures, and Congress just isn’t interested in passing gun control. But today’s status quo is tomorrow’s ancient history.Colorado’s idea of regulating gun barrel purchases as if they’re guns is stupid and problematic, to say the least. We all know it. However, let’s understand that bad ideas never stay in one…
I, like many of you, think guns should be stored properly when not in use.I, like most of you, oppose laws that mandate guns should be stored away when not meeting a legal definition of “in use.” The reasons for that are many, but mostly it’s because I don’t want the government telling me what I have to do with my property in my own home, all without any consideration for me, my situation, or my children.That’s never stopped anti-gunners from trying to sell mandatory storage laws to the public.In Louisiana, a very pro-gun state,…

The Illinois Supreme Court is facing a lawsuit by a former Cook County judge who was canned for writing a column supportive of President Trump when he was not even on the bench, but as NRA board member Todd Vandermyde pointed out on social media, the state’s highest court has at least one justice who’s engaged in some blatant partisan politicking of her own without losing her job. Former Cook County Judge James R. Brown retired in 2020 but was brought back by the Illinois Supreme Court five years later, assigning him to Cook County’s…
After a long life of dangerous feats in the mountains, Jim Whittaker died peacefully in his Washington home on Tuesday. He was 97. He was the first American to reach the summit of Mount Everest and a vital figure in the history of REI Co-op, where he eventually served as president and CEO. His impact on both climbing and the outdoor industry is impossible to overstate, and his life has become the stuff of legend. The tributes came quickly on Wednesday. REI said Whittaker “showed the world what’s possible when courage is grounded in purpose.” In a statement shared with…
In addition to gun control, I’m not fond of taxes. I might understand why a government needs to tax its citizens to some degree or another, but that doesn’t mean I have to like it. Especially when the taxes aren’t just about funding things like police and fire departments, but about trying to create some kind of social change. Yes, even if that social change is something we can all agree is a good thing.For example, let’s take homicides. No one seems to think of murder as a good thing, after all, and while homicide…
If your HEAD ski boots have fluorescent yellow components and were made between the years 2016 and 2022, stop using them immediately and contact the brand. On April 9, HEAD announced a significant recall of 20 boot models that use this fluorescent plastic, which can “deteriorate and break, posing a risk of serious injury from a fall.” About 1,365 units are part of this recall in the U.S., along with an additional 525 units sold in Canada. It includes Next Edge, Vector Evo, Advant Edge, Raptor, and Formula models. They were sold both online and at retailers, priced from $500…
Maryland has already banned the sale of the most popular long guns in the country, but now Democrats are targeting some of the most popular handguns as well. On Wednesday, the House of Delegates gave its stamp of approval to legislation that would prohibit the sale of semi-automatic, striker-fired pistols that have a “cruciform trigger bar,” which would cover Glock pistols and Glock clones. California already has a virtually identical law in place, and Democrats in Illinois and New York are also pushing similar bans this session. Glock has faced litigation over the design of its…
In a very disappointing move, the U.S. Supreme Court chose to not hear an important lawsuit challenging the Illinois law banning carry of firearms for self-defense on modes of public transportation. In the case Schoenthal v. Raoul, the justices denied certiorari, leaving in place a disastrous 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that upheld the ban. In a poorly thought-out decision last September, the court ruled that “crowded spaces” like subways qualify as “sensitive places” where the government may broadly prohibit the exercise of the right to bear arms. “The Second Amendment protects an individual’s right to self-defense… It does…
United States President Donald Trump has reset his sights on Greenland, now that Washington, Iran, and Israel have agreed to a ceasefire. Trump has notoriously suggested that the U.S. take over Greenland, and recently called it a “poorly run piece of ice.” In a Truth Social post Wednesday evening stateside, Trump said that “NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN. REMEMBER GREENLAND, THAT BIG, POORLY RUN, PIECE OF ICE!!!” Danish Prime Minister Says Trump Is “Very Serious” About Acquiring Greenland The latest broadside comes after Trump announced a 2-week ceasefire after more than…
Cody Roberts, 44, was sentenced Wednesday to 18 months of supervised probation after pleading guilty to felony animal cruelty in the Wyoming wolf case that exploded into one of the state’s most notorious wildlife controversies in recent memory. The sentence includes a suspended prison term of up to 2 years, a $1,000 fine, and additional court costs and surcharges. If Roberts violates probation, he could still be sent to prison. The case stems from Feb. 29, 2024, when Roberts used a snowmobile to run down and maim a wolf in Sublette County. He then taped the animal’s mouth shut, brought…
With more than a dozen gun-related bills on the schedule, the Rhode Island House Judiciary committee met for hours on Wednesday afternoon and evening, with hundreds of Second Amendment supporters descending on the statehouse beforehand to urge lawmakers to oppose the vast majority of the bills. It’s hard to say what’s the worst gun control bill up for debate in Rhode Island this year, because so many of them are flagrant attacks on lawful gun owners. The bill that’s received the most attention, though, is HB 8073, which would force current owners of so-called assault…
