The trade association for the firearms industry is lauding the Trump Administration’s decision to set up a special office within the Department of Justice dedicated to protecting Americans’ Second Amendment rights. In a December 2 news item, Larry Keane, senior vice president and general counsel for the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), said that for the first time, the Civil Rights Division is being “directed to treat the Second Amendment as what it is: a civil right deserving active protection.” That’s a big departure from the Biden Administration. “The contrast with former President Joe Biden’s White House Office of Gun…
The YETI Roadie 24 is one of those upgrades that actually matters. The brand didn’t change much because there wasn’t much needed to make it better. But by adding a drain plug and swapping the old handle for a shoulder strap, YETI made its already excellent mid-size cooler noticeably better in day-to-day use. You’ll often see this updated Roadie 24 referred to as the “Roadie 24 2.0,” even though that’s not its official name. No matter what you call it, I tested the new Roadie 24 for 6 weeks during the fall in Colorado’s Roaring Fork Valley. In testing, daytime…
New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin launched a gun-free zone registry and placard campaign in 2024. Does a letter that has surfaced prove he’s coercing favored speech though his office? A non-compulsory gun-free zone initiative was launched in March 2024, aimed mainly at businesses. It allows them to register as a “no guns allowed” zone and they would receive stickers to post. Some of the listed registrants were interesting, with hundreds of out-of-state addresses and/or fake business names. Unverified rumors also circulated that police departments were compelling businesses to post stickers. Now Bearing Arms has obtained…
If you ever wondered what happens when a career ATF bureaucrat lands a soft seat at Everytown, here’s your answer. Marianna Mitchem left ATF in May 2025 and almost immediately surfaced at Everytown for Gun Safety. And she didn’t waste time easing into the role. According to one former ATF colleague, she reached out after leaving and tried to figure out how to target Glock and Glock-style pistols. That alone tells you what direction she was heading. Mitchem just helped roll out a long report titled The Supply Side of Violence How Gun Dealers Fuel Firearm Trafficking. It reads like…

It started with the yellow. The Dometic Recon cooler is hard to miss: bright, bold, and easy to spot in the back of a Jeep or tucked among camping gear. When I pulled the 41L version into rotation for testing around Colorado’s Roaring Fork Valley, I was curious whether this injection-molded cooler could deliver more than just good looks. Of course, Dometic’s background in mobile refrigeration gave me high hopes. But what stood out most wasn’t the ice retention; it was the usability. The dual-opening lid, magnetic drain plug, rubberized top, and square, easy-packing shape made it one of the…
Whoever first said, “Never skip leg day” knew the importance of strong and durable legs. Strong legs mean longer life, greater independence as we age and optimal performance in running, rucking and other load-bearing activities involved in tactical training. Leg days have no age group, as we all need to do them each week of our lives. When you prioritize leg training, you are investing in the power, endurance and stability that will serve you well throughout life. Read More: Starting at Sunrise, an All-Day Routine for Better Sleep and Better PerformanceHere is an advanced leg day, but each section is completely scalable…
What does it take to overturn a country? First, take away guns from citizens, especially those who might have a favorable view of the country’s current leadership. Next, turn the country’s military against its leadership. Accomplish those two things, and the stage is set. Of course, that’s greatly simplified, but you get the picture. Which brings us to U.S. Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Arizona, and explains why he has worked so hard over the past several decades to try to ban civilian gun ownership—especially of so-called “military-grade” firearms. Sen. Kelly and five associates have been in the news recently for an…
On Thursday, I covered a pair of New Mexico lawmakers who are calling for a new state-level licensing system for gun dealers. In their initial remarks, the legislators relied heavily on a new “report” by Everytown for Gun Safety that alleges more than 930,000 firearms were likely trafficked between 2017 and 2023, “supplied by gun dealers—Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs)—who either knowingly or negligently turn a blind eye.” That assertion leaves no room for the idea that any of these FFLs were duped by straw buyers, and utterly ignores the fact that FFLs are often the…
This article was originally published by Cassie B. at Natural News. Cuba’s power grid collapsed again, causing widespread blackouts. The crisis stems from fuel shortages and an outdated, centralized system. Daily life is severely disrupted, with residents struggling for basic necessities. The U.S. grid faces similar vulnerabilities from aging infrastructure and foreign dependencies. America must act now to harden its grid and prevent a comparable catastrophe. The lights went out again in Havana this week, plunging millions into darkness and offering a real-time preview of a future no American should ever have to face. On Wednesday, a partial collapse of…
There are a lot of people out there in the media who are kind of delusional when it comes to guns. They report the anti-gun stuff with an incredible level of optimism that doesn’t seem based on anything other than the fact that they don’t talk to anyone who doesn’t work for Everytown, Giffords, Brady, or some similar group. Recently, in Washington state, their assault weapon ban survived one stage of the legal fight to overturn it.At least one person in the media seems realistic about how that’s likely to go in the long term.A…
A New Mission for One of the Army’s Most Iconic AircraftFor decades, the AH-64 Apache was built to destroy tanks and provide close support to troops on the ground. Now the Army is giving it a mission few expected: hunting drones.The rise of drone swarms in Ukraine, the Red Sea, and across the Middle East has pushed every service to rethink air defense. Fixed systems like Patriot, Avenger, and IFPC provide critical coverage, but they can’t be everywhere. The Army’s own analysis, echoed through congressional testimony and the Department of Defense’s 2024 Strategy for Countering Unmanned Systems, shows a widening…
Most of us watch reality survival shows like Alone or Naked and Afraid from the couch and think, “I could probably do that… right?” But what do people who actually teach survival for a living think of those shows—and which ones, if any, you should treat as more than just TV?While it’s rare to find active-duty SERE instructors publicly spilling behind-the-scenes opinions, several well-known survival instructors and seasoned outdoor professionals have gone on record about the biggest and best shows. So we pulled together what those instructors and pros have said about TV’s biggest survival series—how realistic they are, which ones they…
