When our Founding Fathers felt their tea was being taxed unfairly, ostensibly to pay back the debt England incurred during the French & Indian War, they didn’t just sit around and do nothing. No, they boarded a cargo ship loaded with tea and tossed it in the harbor. They were so polite about the whole thing that, though they smashed open a lock securing the cargo, they brought a new lock to the ship the next morning. After that, “No taxation without representation” became a battle cry leading into the American Revolution.Since then, Americans have…
The Supreme Court will meet in conference this Friday, and among the cases scheduled for discussion are two that deal with bans on commonly owned ammunition magazines, as well as a three challenges to state and local bans on so-called assault weapons. If the Court once again turns away a challenge to these bans, or even keeps them in limbo for the rest of the term, millions more Americans could be subject to these prohibitions by the time the justices have the opportunity address the issue once again. At the moment, bans on so-called assault…
A Cleveland homeowner is lucky to be alive after opening his front door and walking straight into gunfire. According to reporting from 19 News, the shooting happened just after 1 a.m. Friday on Schiller Avenue in the Old Brooklyn neighborhood. The homeowner, who asked that his last name not be used, said he heard noises coming from his driveway and believed someone was trying to steal a Kia parked outside. “I literally flew out of bed,” he told 19 News. His goal, he said, was simple: scare them off before they could take the vehicle. Instead, the moment he opened…
The 3D printer industry and the gun world have an overlap, but not necessarily an intentional one. A lot of people in the 3D printing world aren’t exactly into guns, and while there are many others who are, the truth is that these printers can be used by a lot of different people with a lot of different goals. That’s kind of what’s cool about them.But people like Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, to say nothing of lawmakers in other anti-gun states, think that the government can force 3D printer manufacturers to include technology that will…

The United States has taken control of another oil tanker for defying ruler Donald Trump’s “quarantine.” The Pentagon said that “the vessel tried to defy President Trump’s quarantine – hoping to slip away. We tracked it from the Caribbean to the Indian Ocean, closed the distance, and shut it down.” The US launched a military operation in Venezuela in early January. That operation saw the kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. In addition to that, the US now claims to have seized control of the country’s oil exports. Earlier this year, Trump said that Washington plans to “control Venezuela’s oil…
One of the vehicles I learned to drive on wore Kumho tires for many years. Now, admittedly, that Mk4 Volkswagen Golf TDI lacked any performance panache or off-road capability. But the treadwear durability, confidence in wet and dry, and pricing all worked well for my family’s budget. I never even realized Kumho also produced an all-terrain tire until the company offered to send me a set of the Road Venture AT52 to test. Given some elements of curiosity after those positive impressions from my teenage years, plus the wide range of sizes available, I took a leap of faith. I’m…
The Liberal government in Canada is continuing its nationwide gun “buyback” of banned firearms, though we haven’t heard many Liberal politicians touting its success as of late. Instead, most of the recent headlines about the compensated confiscation effort have centered around localities refusing to participate. Most recently, the police department in Kingston, Ontario declared it won’t be involved in the federal effort, citing “concerns related to the program’s design, implementation, and potential impacts on local policing resources and public safety priorities,” identified by both the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police and the Ontario Association…
A man leaving a gun range found himself in a robbery attempt that quickly escalated into a shootout. And at least one alleged robber paid the price. According to a report from Click2Houston (KPRC2), Houston police say the incident unfolded near an apartment complex on Rampart Street and the Westpark Tollway. Investigators told reporters that the victim had just left a gun range when he was approached and robbed by a group of three men. Police say the suspects followed him to the apartment complex before the situation turned violent. During the attempted robbery, the armed citizen fired his weapon,…

When camping in the winter, staying warm all night can be a challenge. You can bring a good sleeping bag and extra blankets, but with the fire several feet away outside your tent, it can still get really cold in your tent if the temperature is low enough. But there’s a smart, efficient way to beat the cold: an underground tent heater.This clever bushcraft method uses a trench fire beneath your tent floor, designed to radiate heat upward through the ground all night long. It creates a deep bed of coals that stays hot for hours with no need to…
I carried the Echelon 4.0C for a year through desert dust, frozen peaks, and long range days. It stayed reliable, carried comfortably, and earned a real spot in my rotation.

Read along as I recount my adventures and share what I learned about the Echelon along the way.

Democrats in Washington are advancing a bill that targets the use of 3D printers for making gun parts. HB 2320 was amended before it was voted out by the House Civil Right and Judiciary Committee, but not enough to make the legislation palatable to those who appreciate our First, Second, and Fifth Amendment rights. As NRA-ILA describes the legisilation: House Bill 2320 attempts to prohibit the private use of 3-D printers and milling machines for manufacturing firearms and firearms parts that are already illegal or restricted under state law. This bill also prohibits the possession of…
(Photo courtesy of New Hampshire Union Leader) New Hampshire’s House of Representatives voted 188-165 on Thursday to advance legislation that would strip public colleges and universities of their authority to ban firearms on campus. House Bill 1793 now heads to the Finance Committee before potentially moving to the Senate. The bill would prohibit publicly funded colleges from restricting lawful possession or use of weapons on campus — including firearms, pepper spray, mace, stun guns, and tasers. In other words, if you can legally carry it in New Hampshire, you can carry it on a public college campus. “Live Free or…
AAAA maple glam with real teeth. In 6.5 Creedmoor, the X-Bolt 2 Medallion Maple stacked tight groups, ran smooth, and looked like a custom without the custom bill. This beauty turns into a beast with ammo it likes, and you do not have to be a Fudd to appreciate it. Stunning Maple Looks That Hunt When I requested a Browning X-Bolt 2 Medallion Maple rifle for testing, I expected an ordinary X-Bolt 2 with a wooden stock somewhat lighter colored than Browning’s walnut-stocked rifles. I was wrong. When I unboxed the gun, I was stunned. The richly figured maple stock…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog under the title: It Is Starting! Layoffs Highest Since 2009, Job Openings Plummet, and Bitcoin And Other Major Cryptocurrencies Are Crashing Hard Look out below, because the dam is beginning to break. Many of us were projecting that our economic problems would accelerate during the early portion of 2026, and that is precisely what has taken place. Employers are conducting brutal layoffs all over the nation, the number of job openings continues to decline, stores and restaurants are closing everywhere we look, and now cryptocurrencies are crashing hard.

I understand why some people don’t want gun rights for felons. The popular image of a felon is someone who was arrested for armed robbery, murder, or something equally violent. Still others figure that many felons are guilty of far more than they were convicted of, so you’re just covering your bases by treating them all the same. But the issue is that our system isn’t meant to work like that. Yeah, a lot of non-violent felons may well have been violent as hell without being caught, but others weren’t, and we don’t have a…
