The right to keep and bear arms is a human right. Even if most other nations ignore it, having the means to defend yourself is an essential right, even if you elect not to do so. It’s like free speech. It’s a human right, even if you don’t care to speak out about things. But all too often, it’s treated like nothing of the sort, even here in the United States. People want to attach things to it that boil down to it becoming a privilege you have to look to the government to grant…
Steiner just dropped a shrunken version of its MPS pistol optic aimed squarely at compact and subcompact carry guns. The MPS-C rides the RMSc footprint — the same cut found on the Shield RMSc, Holosun EPS Carry, and other small-frame optics — making it a direct play for Shields, Hellcats, P365s, and similar platforms. The headline feature is the enclosed emitter design. Unlike the exposed-emitter dots that dominate the budget end of the market, the MPS-C’s LED sits protected behind a fully sealed housing with a recessed, shrouded window. That matters on a carry gun that lives in a holster,…
More than one hundred United States-based international law experts have warned that American strikes on Iran may amount to war crimes. These violations come only a few months after the U.S. committed obvious war crimes when it bombed civilian boats in the Caribbean, accusing them of “narco terrorism.” Experts were citing violations of the United Nations Charter, attacks on civilian infrastructure, and alarming rhetoric from senior officials as evidence of the U.S.’s war crimes. War Crimes Stacking Up: Three More Killed In US Attack On A Venezuelan Boat In an open letter published on Thursday by the Just Security policy…
A Secret Service agent assigned to Jill Biden’s protective detail shot himself in the butt at Philadelphia International Airport last Friday morning, and the story behind the how is almost too embarrassing to type. According to RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree, the agent left his phone behind in an SUV while escorting Biden into the airport. He rushed back to retrieve it and, apparently lacking a flashlight, drew his Glock and used the weapon-mounted light to search for the phone. When he hastily re-holstered, he sent a 9mm round into his own backside. UPDATE: Additional new details about the junior @SecretService…

Traveling with my folks as a kid, we hit quite a few state parks and even a few national parks. The Grand Canyon was cool, the Petrified Forest wasn’t what I expected, but still pretty cool, too, and Shenandoah was beautiful. But that was back when I was too young to carry a firearm. I haven’t been to many national parks these days because, well, I don’t travel all that much anymore, but national parks aren’t high on the list of potential destinations because of the gun rules there. While the Second Amendment Foundation is trying to…
FALCO Holsters turned a few heads on April 1, 2026, with the official launch of its CarryArt series featuring the CX14 Pineapple and CX15 Strawberry leather OWB holsters. The company is quick to point out these are not April Fools’ jokes, but just FALCO Holsters expressing their inner artists to bring the gun industry something fresh. Even though they look like fruit, like all leather falco holsters, the new CarryArt series is made from full-grain Italian leather at 1/8” (7–8 oz) thickness. Both of the inaugural CarryArt models are custom-fit to over 3600 different handguns. They use a leather belt…
Each year, Jeep debuts concept vehicles at the annual Easter Jeep Safari (EJS) in Moab, Utah. Moab, often called “the spiritual home” of the brand, EJS attracts tens of thousands of Jeep enthusiasts to Moab for a week of wheeling, custom rigs, and “Jeep Waves.” This year marked 60 years of EJS and 85 years of the Jeep brand. Jeep’s yearly concepts always offer one-off design features mixed with popular modifications to create things that “could be.” The rigs are often an amalgam of in-house customization and aftermarket parts to create Jeeps that the public looks forward to every year…
Whether it’s because you’re looking to shoot more for less amid this economic squeeze, or you’re just a rimfire junkie like me searching for the best .22 suppressors for beginners, having a solid, budget-friendly first suppressor is a pivotal step in your NFA ownership journey. If you’re still uncertain about whether or not you’ll even like the experience a suppressor gives you, a good first stop is to check out Silencer Shop to see what .22 caliber suppressors they offer, like the lightweight Fletcher Tauito or insanely quiet Angstadt Reticent 22. Typically low cost, with simple designs, lightweight yet durable…
It’s difficult to find much of anything we might call “good” coming out of the current US-Israel war against Iran. Yet, one positive development has been the fact that Israel’s deceitful practice of pretending it has no nuclear weapons program is now untenable. The renewal of the discussion around Israel’s nuclear arms program was prompted in part by Iranian missile strikes in the area of Dimona, a city in southern Israel known to house Israel’s nuclear research facilities. In a March 22 report on the strikes by the Jerusalem Post, the ongoing denials by the Israeli state are noted: “In the 1960s,…
It turns out Jeep had a few surprises for us at the 60th annual Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah. While we knew of six concept Jeeps, we weren’t expecting three more sneak peeks. At a dinner in Moab to kick off the annual EJS event (and the brand’s 85th anniversary), Jeep debuted two unexpected prototypes and its latest Twelve4Twelve drop.

Enthusiasts may notice something lacking in the lineup, however: an off-road Trail Rated spec. Knowing…
When it came time to test the durability of Patagonia’s newest jacket, renowned climber Josh Wharton didn’t hesitate. Wharton was climbing in Nevada’s Red Rocks when Patagonia designer Eric Noll showed up with a new puffy designed to withstand the abuse of big-wall climbing expeditions. Without missing a beat, Wharton reached down to the ground, grabbed a rock, and tried to cut open the jacket with it. “Eric was horrified, but the parka didn’t tear,” Wharton said, relating the story during an October media gathering. “The thing still looks brand new even after using it to cross talus fields.” The…
I’ve known a number of people who have had to deal with some ugly custody hearings in their time. I’ve seen shady things done by parents of both sexes, and I’ve seen kids traumatized by the back and forth. But I’ve also seen cases where the battle was important for the safety of the kids. It’s a shame that anyone wouldn’t do everything they could to give their children the best life possible while also trying to make them good people, but it’s a thing.And, in the wake of several parents being prosecuted because their…
For one of the biggest sportswear companies in the world, Under Armour’s place in performance running footwear is surprisingly small — but the new Velociti Elite 3 feels like a direct challenge to that perception. This shoe has proven top-end racing pedigree: Sharon Lokedi won the 2025 Boston Marathon in a prototype and returns this year as defending champion. It reflects a more transparent design direction from the brand, recognizing that the first two Velociti editions had a lot of room for improvement, something the company has openly acknowledged. The latest version is seriously aggressive and fast, and suggests that…
I think it’s fair to say that the Firearms Policy Coalition is primarily known for its litigation in the 2A space. Well, that and their no-holds-barred social media presence. The group has increased its lobbying footprint over the past year, though, and FPC’s mission also includes research, legislative and regulatory advocacy, grassroots activism, education, and public engagement. FPC’s latest project encompasses several aspects of that mission, including education and grassroots activism. The organization debuted its Freedom Index on Friday, giving Second Amendment supporters a look at where their states stand on the right to keep…
