The Mossberg Shockwave remains one of my favorite guns. It’s just so much fun. The short nature, the fact that they aren’t shotguns but are “firearms,” and thus can have a short 14-inch barrel, makes you feel like you’re getting away with something. The Shockwave was a big success, and Mossberg followed up with the Shockwave .410 and 20 gauge. The little bore gets the firearm treatment. I’ve always wanted a .410 version, but I never got around to it. Other projects and guns took my attention away, and I more or less forgot it existed. That was until I…

When Defense Distributed first unveiled its Liberator model, it was kind of a special moment in the world of the Second Amendment. It was suddenly clear that you couldn’t stop the signal, and that gun control’s last hopes of stopping people from getting guns were over. Yes, that’s a good thing.Now, tons of people are using 3D printers to make their own guns. The Liberator is far from the only model available, and options range from a Glock-style lower receiver to full gun builds like the FGC-9.And so the jihad against gun rights must expand…
According to NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA), the complaint faults the defendants for “distributing computer code for 3D printing firearms and prohibited firearm accessories and for promoting and facilitating the unlawful manufacture of 3D printed firearms and firearm accessories in violation of Civil Code sections 3273.61 and 3273.625 and the Unfair Competition Law (Bus. and Prof. Code § 17200 et seq.).” The suit seeks not only preliminary and permanent injunctive relief but significant civil penalties against each defendant, among other remedies. “This lawsuit is not just about the manufacturing or possession of 3D printed firearms and accessories,” NRA-ILA wrote…
After Nebraska lawmakers approved a permitless carry law in 2023, politicians in Omaha and Lincoln pitched a fit and enacted new measures prohibiting firearms on all city property, as well as banning bump stocks and “ghost guns.” While a lawsuit filed by the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association against Lincoln is ongoing, the city of Omaha has thrown in the towel and retracted the executive order banning carry on city property that sparked similar litigation. The revocation is somewhat symbolic, since the city had already repealed the executive order a year ago, leading to the dismissal of…
If you think you can walk into a gun store, point at a firearm, swipe your card, and walk out like you’re grabbing a pack of gum, you’ve been misled. That’s the blunt message from Colion Noir, who recently pushed back against the long-running narrative that buying a gun in America is “too easy.” Noir highlighted a viral clip from a first-time buyer who described her experience purchasing a firearm as one of the hardest processes she’s gone through. She compares it to boarding a domestic flight. That’s not exactly the “walk in and arm yourself instantly” fantasy critics often…
I had always relegated compensators and gas pedals as things geared towards competition shooting. I hadn’t really considered them for duty or concealed carry guns. That changed for me after attending GunCon 2025 last summer. I got a chance to shoot with both systems on range day and started reconsidering my previous conceptions. After the show, I picked up a Thumb Rest from Align Tactical to try out, and then most recently got a Radian AFTERBURNER + RAMJET barrel and compensator combo as well. Radian AFTERBURNER + RAMJET Features The Radian AFTERBURNER + RAMJET comes as a set including the…
United States ruler Donald Trump is building an “armada” in the Middle East, as warhawk Senator Lindsey Graham meets with the Emirati president. The American military presence in the region in decades continues to growas the rulers continue with their war rhetoric. The unprecedented air and naval force sent by Trump to the Persian Gulf was sent to coerce Iran into submission to the U.S., but Tehran isn’t blinking, and Trump may be backing himself into a situation where war with Iran may be unavoidable. Back in June, the U.S. attacked Iran during the 12-day war, in order to stop…
As of publication, there’s still about a half-hour left in the 2026 New Mexico legislative session, but we can confidently say that the bill banning the sale of all gas-operated centerfire rifles and many other commonly owned arms will not get a final vote in the House this session. Instead, SB 17 was left in limbo by the House Judiciary committee after a late night meeting on Monday evening that stretched into Tuesday morning. 🚨WE WON!!!The unconstitutional gun-grab bill SB 17 is dead!☠️It would have burdened small businesses, threatened constitutional rights, and exposed New Mexico to…
I’m a huge fan of small, useful EDC tools. For years, I’ve carried the hard-to-beat Gerber Shard in my pocket and used it more times than I can count. So when an email about a pocket knife the size of a quarter landed in my inbox, I was intrigued. The fact that the tiny COiN knife sold somewhere around 5,000 units in just 5 days proved I wasn’t alone. What Is the COiN Knife? The COiN knife is smaller than a bottle cap; (photo/COiN) The COiN (silly capitalization is the brand’s, not mine) is a very small knife that clips…
Bearing Arms was the child of Bob Owens. Every single one of us owes the man something, and I never actually met him. Still, one of the best compliments I got in my early days here was someone saying I was a worthy successor to his legacy. I don’t feel that way at all. I’m just trying to do the best I can, but I appreciate it just the same. Bob took his own life, and the anti-gunners had a field day with that fact. To them, it was the vindication of everything they believed.…
As I dropped my trolling motor, I scanned the water and noticed a few dead shad floating to my right. I quickly picked up my rod paired with the Shimano Curado 150M, and chucked an A-rig into the ball of baitfish. With two cranks of the reel, I felt a thump and set the hook. The bass immediately turned, shooting for the nearest brush pile, and the reel’s drag smoothly engaged. Knowing that there was high potential for the fish to tangle my rig in submerged limbs and shake loose, I swept my rod to the right and forced him…
An Oregon state representative is facing an internal investigation after he allegedly coerced a fellow Democrat lawmaker into changing her vote on a bill that would make it more expensive for residents to exercise their Second Amendment rights. Second Amendment advocate Derek LeBlanc filed the complaint with the Legislative Equity Office after a House Judiciary Committee meeting this week, where Rep. Jason Kropf, who chairs the committee, apparently wouldn’t take “no” for an answer from fellow Democrat Rep. Thủy Trần on a vote to amend HB 4145; a bill modifying some of the provisions of…
United States ruler Donald Trump is considering a plan that would involve killing “scores of Iranian political and military leaders.” Trump has allegedly been briefed on several strike options, including a weeks-long air campaign that would lead to several assassinations. According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, Trump received several briefings on strike options, including a potentially weeks-long air campaign to “kill scores of Iranian political and military leaders,” with the end goal of toppling the government. Other options reportedly focus on nuclear and missile sites. CBS News also cited sources as saying that Trump was briefed that the…
When is a 3D-printed gun file protected speech? That’s a hard question to answer, but according to the Philadelphia-based 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, not when such a file is distributed in the state of New Jersey. On February 12, the 3rd Circuit Court unanimously ruled in the case Defense Distributed v. Attorney General of New Jersey a lower court decision throwing out the challenge to a state law that criminalizes the distribution of certain digital instructions or code that can be used to 3D-print firearms to unlicensed individuals was the correct decision. At issue is a 2018 cease-and-desist letter…
While Virginia lawmakers are busy slicing and dicing our right to keep and bear arms, their counterparts in West Virginia have taken another big step forward in protecting our Second Amendment rights. The state already has a permitless carry law in place, and the number of “gun-free zones” are few and far between. Even public colleges and universities are open to lawful carry (with a valid permit) as of 2024. One quirk in state law, though. says that while adults 21 and older can lawfully carry without a permit so long as they can legally…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. It takes a lot to blow me away in this day and age, but the video footage of humanoid AI-powered robots in China that I am about to share with you truly blew me away. During the CCTV Spring Festival gala, humanoid AI-powered robots built by Unitree performed an incredibly complex martial arts routine that was simply jaw-dropping. I never thought that we would get to a point where robots could move like that. I am literally in awe of what the Chinese have been able to…
Rep. Jasmine Crockett, in her time in Congress, has managed to do something I never thought was possible. She made me think that maybe AOC isn’t the dumbest member of the House. Honestly, she’s said some colossally stupid things in the last couple of years and has made her name by playing down her elitist roots and pretending she’s just “Jazzy from the streets” or something. Another sign of her stupidity is that she thinks she has a shot at becoming one of Texas’s senators.Oh, and let’s not forget that she’s yet another anti-gunner. That’s…
ANTERSELVA, Italy — Biathlon, which combines rifle shooting and cross-country skiing, developed out of Scandinavian military training exercises. So it’s not surprising that many of the biathletes competing at the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics have military or law enforcement careers that help them fine-tune their skills, support them while competing and ensure a job when they hang up their skis.Three members of the U.S. biathlon team are with the Vermont National Guard: Staff Sgt. Deedra Irwin, Spc. Sean Doherty and Spc. Maxime Germain. Irwin and Doherty are also members of the U.S. Army’s World Class Athlete program.Doherty is stationed at…
