The Department of Justice has been arguing for months now that various courts should either uphold federal statutes prohibiting gun ownership for anyone convicted of a crime punishable by more than a year in prison, or at the very least hold off judgment until the DOJ’s rights restoration rule takes effect and individual plaintiffs try to regain their rights through that process.  The DOJ reiterated that stance before an en banc panel of the Third Circuit today in two separate cases challenging Section 922(g)(1), but in doing so the government ended up demonstrating why the…

If you’ve been waiting for true high-res thermal performance in a binocular platform, the new QUEST S50R Rangefinding Thermal Binocular just answered that call, loudly. This isn’t a monocular pretending to be something else. The QUEST S50R is built from the ground up for two-eyed scanning comfort, stability, and long-haul observation. And now it brings a 1280×1024, 60Hz thermal sensor to the party. At the heart of the S50R is a Nocpix 1280 sensor (12μm, ≤15 mK NETD) paired with a serious 50mm f/1.1 germanium objective lens. Translation? Big glass, big performance. More detail. Better contrast. Cleaner identification at distance.…

This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News.  Introduction: The High-Stakes Deception In February 2026, a familiar geopolitical drama unfolded once more. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hastily flew to Washington, D.C., moving up a scheduled meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump by a week [1]. His urgent mission, as widely reported, was to sabotage ongoing diplomatic talks between the United States and Iran [2] and instead push the American leader toward a catastrophic military confrontation. This maneuver was not a sudden development but the culmination of a years-long, covert campaign of manipulation by the Israeli leader—a campaign rooted in…

As I walked through Vail Village, a familiar pair of boots caught my eye. The liftie was carrying his empty cabrio shells in one hand, his skis over his shoulder, and on his feet were Dahu’s instantly recognizable Cambium Boots. The rubber-soled, lace-up liners can be worn outside of their shells like a regular snow boot. It’s one of the defining features of Dahu’s three-piece Cabrio design. I probably wouldn’t have noticed that liftie was wearing Dahus, except that I was at Vail that morning to test the brand’s latest boots: the 02X and the 02AM. I reviewed the original…

As Bearing Arms reported last week, New Hampshire did a very good thing. They’re one step closer to having campus carry on college campuses in the state. For a state that has “Live Free or Die” on its license plates, it’s nice to see when they’re living up to that motto. And yeah, that’s what’s happening here, assuming the Senate passes the bill, too.I’m not the only one thrilled to see this, though, and neither is Cam, who wrote about it last week. The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is…

When police chase an armed suspect toward a church parking lot on a Sunday morning, things can go sideways fast. That’s exactly what happened February 8 in Hickory, North Carolina. According to reports, officers encountered a 35-year-old man holding a knife outside a nearby restaurant. Commands were given. He refused. The situation escalated into a foot pursuit, straight toward St. Luke’s United Methodist Church as congregants were arriving for service. During the chase, a police K-9 was deployed and reportedly stabbed. At one point, an officer fell, and the suspect turned back toward him with the knife still in hand.…

Putting accessories on a bow isn’t something you should take lightly. I’ve had instances when those very accessories proved the difference between success and failure in the field. You need gear that you can depend on when you need it most. It needs to be able to handle rugged country, being bumped around, and inclement weather. Hamskea has always been a name I’ve trusted across the board here. The new R7 arrow rest might just be the best one yet for me and bowhunters alike. In short: Bowhunters looking for an arrow rest that is not only durable, but dependable,…

I do not envy our friends in the Great White North.At one time, they had gun control laws that were actually kind of tolerable. Yeah, they had stupid ones, but they could also get short-barreled rifles and shotguns over the counter at their local gun store, so there were upsides, too. But that was before Justin Trudeau had to deflect from a “brown face” scandal and leveraged the media’s hatred of gun ownership to do so. Now, things aren’t what they used to be, with a literal gun grab set to take place soon.And the…

Liberty’s high-velocity 9mm Spike chosen by the world’s oldest security firm Liberty Ammunition announced this week that Brink’s U.S. has selected the company’s ammunition for executive protection duties, marking a significant endorsement from the security industry giant. The Bradenton, Florida-based ammunition manufacturer will supply Brink’s protection teams with its 9mm Spike load, a specialized round engineered specifically for the demands of executive protection work. The 55-grain, all-copper projectile features an integral spike design that enables deep penetration through barriers while creating a permanent wound channel—critical capabilities when threats may involve vehicle glass, heavy clothing, or intermediate obstacles. “We support several…

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban claimed that both Kiev and Brussels have declared war on his country. Orban has repeatedly blasted the European Union’s reported plan to make Ukraine a member in spite of Budapest’s objections. But does that mean war? Orban thinks it could be possible. According to a report by Politico, as reported by RT, EU officials want to relax admission criteria and offer Kiev limited privileges in a membership offer scheduled for 2027. Orban has been identified as the main obstacle to the controversial move, with sources suggesting he must be removed in Hungary’s forthcoming election, whether…

Recently, test-driving the Land Rover Defender’s new hardcore Octa variant sent me into a tailspin about off-road suspension. The Octa adds nearly $100,000 to the price of a base Defender, and the wild BMW powertrain alone justifies much of that jump. But Land Rover also developed a hydraulic roll control system for the Octa, too, in place of traditional sway bars. Unlike, critically, the rest of the lineup that pairs sway bars with air suspension. And then there’s the Defender D7X-R, which raced at the Dakar Rally, with another fully custom suspension setup. After the D7X-R’s domination at Dakar, the…

Colorado Democrats are once again trying to Californicate the state’s gun laws by aping several restrictions the Golden State has already placed on 3D printing and home-built firearms. In addition to SB 43, which would require background checks to be performed on the sale of every standalone gun barrel, several House Democrats recently unveiled HB 1144, which prohibits manufacturing or producing a “firearm, unfinished frame or receiver, large-capacity magazine, or rapid-fire device (firearm or firearm component) by 3-dimensional printing,” as well as making it a crime to possess or distribute “digital instructions that may be used to program a…
