I’m a woodworker, and something that I always hear in that field is that you can never have enough clamps. Likewise, I’m pretty sure you can never have enough holsters, particularly if you want the optimal one for each gun and purpose. An inside-the-waistband holster for concealed carry is dope for everyday use, but it might not fit every gun you’re going to carry. Sometimes, carrying openly is what you want, which is a different holster entirely. And even if they’re not everyone’s cup of tea, some of us grew up watching enough cop shows…
According to a recent survey from the Federal Reserve, nearly 40 percent of Americans would have trouble paying for an unexpected expense of $400 or more with cash. Another recent survey from a company called Omnisend found that about 30 percent of Americans are paying for essentials like groceries and gas with credit cards, knowing that they may not be able to pay off their bill. “Affordability” has become the buzzword of the 2026 campaign cycle, as more and more of us are feeling the pinch. But while most politicians are at least paying lip…

Veterans owned about 1.6 million U.S. businesses in 2023, generating roughly $1 trillion in receipts. But their share of American business ownership has been shrinking as older veteran entrepreneurs retire and fewer younger veterans replace them. A free New York University program accepting applications this month is aimed at veterans and military spouses trying to enter that pipeline. NYU Tandon School of Engineering has opened applications for VET-1, a six-session online entrepreneurship course for people who are new to business ownership.

PHOENIX (AP) — All eyes were on Navajo Code Talker Thomas H. Begay.

Begay, one of the last two living Code Talkers, made the long trip from his home on the Navajo Nation to the Arizona State Capitol for the event. He was joined by family members and dozens of descendants of other Code Talkers. “I am so damn proud,” said Begay,…

The United States once planned to drop more than 1,000 bomb-carrying bats over Japanese cities. A psychologist taught pigeons to guide missiles. Cold War troops were issued a recoilless weapon capable of launching a nuclear warhead. British engineers built a giant pair of rocket-powered wheels stuffed with explosives and expected the contraption to drive itself up a beach. These weren’t concepts that lived only on paper. Every weapon on this list reached at least the prototype or testing stage. Several entered military service, and some were used in combat. Here are 15 of the strangest weapons military engineers actually built.…
