The gun control group Brady is trying to rally opposition to a proposed rule by the ATF that would allow FFLs to ship firearms directly to customers in the same state instead of having to visit a brick-and-mortar store to complete the transfer.  The anti-gun group, though, is getting roasted and ratioed on X over their bogus characterization of the proposed rule. The Trump administration is trying to create an “Amazon for Guns” — an online gun marketplace that would, for the first time ever, deliver firearms straight to your doorstep.But guns ≠ groceries. And shotguns…

The Trump administration wants soldiers to consider becoming truck drivers when they leave the military to help replace the tens of thousands of immigrant drivers who lost their licenses in a crackdown this year. A new campaign launched Friday will promote programs that let veterans who recently drove large military vehicles skip the required skills test for a commercial driver’s license. Other soldiers can attend a commercial driving school during their last six months of active duty. The GI Bill will also pay for 100% of commercial driver’s license training and for some people even pay a housing allowance while…

From candle lanterns to its assortment of firestarters and rolling ice cream maker, UCO Gear has positioned itself as a veritable one-stop shop for pretty much any need or nice-to-have in the outdoors. Last year, the brand expanded its product offering with a line of folding pocket knives. I received a sample of each knife, and began testing with the Whidbey, a compact knife with a pushbutton lock. Out of the lineup, the Whidbey appealed to me because it felt like the most accessible knife of the bunch — good size, shape, and materials — yet it wasn’t really an EDC blade.…

Troy Jackson is the most likely candidate to replace Graham Platner on the general election ballot for senator in Maine. He’s been a state lawmaker in the past. In fact, he was Senate President. These days, Jackson is pushing a whole lot of gun control proposals, including a ban on AR-15s, despite knowing what the Third Circuit said and how the Supreme Court will likely rule on the matter. I say “these days” because, well, Jackson wasn’t always an anti-gunner.In fact, he used to be a pro-gun Democrat.The man who’s poised to capture Maine’s Democratic…

A new Legend of Zelda-themed Switch 2 console is reportedly in the works, according to a new leak. The Zelda-themed Switch 2 leak arrives as the franchise is celebrating its 40th anniversary. Nintendo has been releasing unique Zelda versions of consoles for ages, with one of the early instances being its Minish Cap Game Boy Advance SP. Since then, just about every handheld and a number of home consoles have received unique Zelda editions, which are typically emblazoned with the Triforce or one of the series’ other popular emblems, and colored gold, though there are some exceptions. New Zelda-Themed Switch…

United States ruler Donald Trump has threatened to seize Iranian assets in order to cover “any and all damages” done to ships and cargo in the Middle East, due to the war he and Israel started on February 28th. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned that this move sets an “incendiary precedent” that could have global ramifications. The US has, historically, been unconcerned with the precedents it sets. It tends to carry a “do as I say, not as I do” attitude with regard to war, especially. A great example of this was the war crimes committed against Venezuela in…

Nothing ruins a backpacking trip faster than blisters, and as someone who always tends to get them, I was nervous before my 96-mile hike along the Oregon Coast Trail. I was testing a new pair of trail runners — Scarpa’s Golden Gate LT — and brought a substantial first-aid kit for when blisters inevitably formed on my feet. And yet, to my surprise, on the entire 7-day trip, which involved a 36-hour straight rainstorm and soaking-wet shoes, I never got a single one. I don’t know whether it was the shape, design, or fabric of the Scarpa shoes — or…

We play games for many reasons and to satisfy different urges. Sometimes, nothing hits the mark like a hard-as-nails RPG that makes every battle feel like life or death, and a single false move forces a restart. Other times, we want to act as the harbinger of death, becoming god-like beings who eviscerate those foolish enough to stand in our way. These open-world RPGs let you be that person. The beauty of open-world RPGs is that many of them provide the tools for players to craft their own legacies, often allowing for multiple ways to craft supremely powerful characters. You…

This article first appeared in iRun Far. On Thursday, July 23, 2026, France’s Aurélien Sanchez set a new men’s supported fastest known time (FKT) on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). His time of 45 days, 20 hours, and 15 minutes betters the previous record of 46 days, 12 hours, and 50 minutes, set by Karel Sabbe of Belgium in 2023, by 16 hours and 35 minutes. When Sanchez announced he was going for the PCT FKT, he declared he wanted to complete it in less than 46 days. His effort averages an impressive 56 miles per day, despite medical and resupply issues. The PCT has…

Unlike many states, Georgia does not prohibit lawful carry on buses, light rail, and public transportation property. That’s a good thing, but after a negligent discharge on board a Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority bus, MARTA’s police chief is now calling for bearing arms to be to be restricted on public transit. Authorities say a man named Cruz Valazquez Guillermo inadvertently discharged his handgun on a bus in Sandy Springs, GA, injuring himself and a fellow passenger. Thankfully, neither of the men suffered life-threatening injuries, and Guillermo is now facing charges of reckless conduct and…

A new task force is being established to combat scalping and other problems buyers and sellers are facing with Pokemon TCG and Yu-Gi-Oh cards. Credit: via GameRant, The Pokemon Company, Konami Originally published by  Game Rant Japan is putting together a task force to try and control scalping and scams with games like Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokemon TCG. Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokemon TCG have both been subject to extreme demand and high prices on the resale market, which is likely also responsible for the cards being targeted in some crimes. Some Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokemon cards have tremendous price tags assigned to them on…

The Honda Ridgeline has had anything but smooth sailing since its debut 2 decades ago. That’s not because it’s not a good vehicle (it’s great, actually), but because people in America have historically not considered it a real pickup truck. Sadly, nobody is singing country songs about their Ridgeline, but Honda is looking to change that with the forthcoming third generation, which looks decidedly truck-like in the teaser image it released on Thursday. Based on the teaser image, which leaves a lot to the imagination (hence teaser), the new Ridgeline will be the most trad-truck one yet. With its more…
