How did Stephen Siller Jr. spend his Father’s Day? Hauling around a nearly 17,000-pound beam, remnants of the World Trade Center, to honor his father, Stephen Siller Sr., a New York City firefighter who died on 9/11 racing in to rescue victims following the deadliest terrorist attack in American history. Siller’s remains were never recovered from the Ground Zero rubble, 1.6 million tons of twisted steel and concrete. After learning about the attacks, Siller ran two miles through the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel with 80 pounds of gear on his back to the South Tower. Siller Jr., 25, was only 9 months…

Whether you’re a runner, cyclist, hiker, or backyard griller, the right gear can often make — or break — your outdoor experience. As we head into the hottest, sunniest months of the year, Amazon’s Prime Days sale is coming up fast later this month. It’s a great time to snag discounts on whatever boosts your stoke for getting outside, be it tech items like smartwatches and power banks or standbys like hiking boots and backpacking tents. Of course, many of us would prefer not to search through Amazon’s seemingly endless deals. So it’s a good thing your friendly neighborhood GearJunkies…
As a veteran, military service member, or eligible military spouse, your VA loan benefits are important for achieving your dream of homeownership. In today’s competitive housing market, you want to close as quickly as possible. If you have heard that VA loans have a reputation for being slow, don’t worry, that’s outdated thinking. In 2026, most VA loans are closing just as fast as conventional mortgages, and sometimes faster. This is key for service members on tight PCS or deployment timelines, where a quick closing can make the difference between winning a bid and losing that dream home. How Long…
For once, I wasn’t digging through three different pockets at the airport. My passport, phone, credit card, glasses, lip balm, earbuds, and a snack were all exactly where I needed them, and I had the Arc’teryx Mantis 1 Waist Pack ($40) to thank. This tiny 1.5L pack is too small for layers, water bottles, or anything bulky, but that’s precisely the point. It’s built for the small items that usually disappear into pants pockets or the bottomless abyss of a larger backpack. I tested the Mantis 1 over 6 months on roughly 30 outings spanning airport travel, daily errands, and…
Chiappa is leaning into the “modern classic” idea with its latest release, the 92 Wildlands Field, a lever-action rifle that keeps the traditional 1892 design intact while adding a few updates aimed at real-world use. At its core, this is still very much a lever gun. The rifle runs on a Model 1892-style action, chambered in .44 Remington Magnum, and feeds from a tubular magazine holding 8+1 rounds. It’s a familiar setup (compact, simple, and proven) especially for shooters who like running revolver cartridges through a rifle. Where things start to shift a bit is in the details. Chiappa paired…
Authorities in Mexico aren’t saying much, at least officially, about the 27-year-old man who opened fire on tourists at the Teotihuacan archaeololgical complex on Monday, killing a Canadian tourist and wounding several others. We don’t know, for instance, if he acquired his pistol through one of the country’s two gun stores or if he got it on the black market. Officials have also been silent about the murderer’s motivations, though several media outlets in Mexico have claimed the killer may have been inspired by the Columbine shooting in Littleton, Colorado in 1999. The newspaper Milenio…
Hungary’s incoming prime minister, Peter Magyar, has warned that he will order the arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he enters the country. This is a sharp reversal of predecessor Viktor Orban’s policy. Hungary’s Orbán Warns: “A 3rd World War Is Knocking On The Door” Before leaving, Orban initiated Hungary’s withdrawal from the International Criminal Court (ICC). While speaking at a press conference on Monday, Magyar said he would halt this action. As a member, Budapest would be legally responsible for enforcing arrest warrants. The ICC issued warrants for Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in…
When your family owns a fishing lodge on Alaska’s Dean River, chances are you’re going to grow up fishing. Oly Hickman is no exception. He’s tying his own flies, prowling the banks with his dad, casting, catching, and reeling in hogs. When he isn’t on the river, you’ll probably find him chasing frogs, digging up worms, and generally being a curious outdoor kid. Fishermen travel from all around Alaska and North America to come cast flies on the fabled Dean River, where Oly’s family owns their lodge. Oly’s dad, Jeff, is a guide with over a decade of experience. He…
Like California, Maryland could soon make it illegal to sell or transfer some of the most popular pistols in the country, and the National Shooting Sports Foundation is warning Gov. Wes Moore about the consequences of signing a gun ban bill into law. SB 334 and HB 557 would prohibit the manufacture, sale, and transfer of semiautomatic pistols the state defines as “machine gun convertible pistols.” The bill would put an end to the sale of virtually all Glocks and other striker-fired semi-automatic pistols in the state, because they can be illegally modified to fire…
This article was originally published by Micahel Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog under the title: The U.S. Navy Just Blew A Giant Hole In An Iranian Cargo Ship As The Crisis In The Strait Of Hormuz Escalates To An Entirely New Level Apparently the Trump administration was not kidding when it warned that no Iranian ships would be allowed through the blockade. Just a little while ago, Donald Trump announced that the U.S. Navy had blown an enormous hole in the side of an Iranian cargo vessel that had willingly chosen to ignore a warning to turn around. Just…
The city of Los Angeles is so deep into the anti-gun state of California that the nearest border to the city is Mexico. They have embraced gun control laws and constantly demand more. Despite all of that, not only does it seem that garden-variety gun control doesn’t work, but an arrest at LAX kind of shows us that the rules around international arms sales don’t seem to be doing all that much, either. We all know that in California, they raise a stink if you want to print firearms components on the 3D printer you…
