Iran has been quickly rebuilding its air defenses using Chinese missiles. In the aftermath of the short war with Israel, which led to an attack on nuclear facilities by the United States, Iran has rebounded. The new Chinese missiles added to Tehran’s stockpile are likely to improve Iran’s air defenses. However, the country is still lagging behind advanced stealth aircraft, such as Israel’s F-35s, and the United States’ empire-coalescing weapons. Putin Says Russia’s New Hypersonic Oreshnik Missile Is Like a Meteorite That Can Reduce Everything To Dust Since being preemptively attacked by Israel, Iran has acquired advanced Chinese surface-to-air missile…
A California police department’s attempt to pat itself on the back for several recent arrests ended up backfiring on social media, and now the department is just digging itself a deeper hole. On Monday, the Hermosa Beach Police Department shared a post on Facebook bragging about officers taking “5 loaded firearms off the streets” during separate traffic stops. There were a few critical comments in response, ranging from “What was illegal about these loaded guns?” to ““So you basically stole some guns from people?? Strange flex, but okay.”The initial post was pretty dumb, but it’s…
The Supreme Court’s decision in the Bruen case was good in a lot of ways. One way that anti-gunners like, though, was that it did say that certain “sensitive places” could be gun-free zones. Those include places like courthouses. So it’s unsurprising that many government centers are gun-free zones. You and I can’t carry in such a place.However, like it or not, police officers and former police officers often get a different set of rules. I don’t think they should, but they do, and that’s simply what the law is. They can go places while…
During a televised cabinet meeting yesterday, President Donald Trump completely avoided answering a question about Jeffrey Epstein. “I mean, I can’t believe you’re asking a question about Epstein at a time like this when we’re having some of the greatest success and also tragedy with what happened… it just seems like a desecration.” The reporter’s question was: “Your memo and release yesterday on Jeffrey Epstein – it left some lingering mysteries. I guess one is whether he ever worked for an American or foreign intelligence agency. The former labor secretary, who was Miami US Attorney Alex Acosta – he allegedly said…
These are my nine easy, low-hanging fruit suggestions that work to improve gas mileage. They work because physics works. But they won’t work for you; I’ve already given up on that. Why? Because behavior change is hard. You’d sooner eat raw kale and floss daily than take the lead out of your right foot. These are boring things, and they might just take the fun out of driving. In a world that demands adulting, we all cling to our few opportunities to cut loose. Your car is you. Even if you didn’t pick your car. Even if you’re destined for…
Liberty-centered and Second Amendment media is important considering the war on anything related to freedom. Friend to Bearing Arms, radio host Mark Walters, was recently named as a “Heavy Hundred.” TALKERS Magazine is a radio trade publication. The magazine calls itself the “Bible of Talk Radio” and has been around since 1990. The magazine honors talk radio hosts annually through their Heavy Hundred list and Mark Walters from Armed American Radio was recently named as a 2025 honoree.Walters is no stranger to Bearing Arms and is a frequent guest on Editor-in-chief Cam Edwards’ show, Cam…
Russia has a new deterrence weapon, and they’ve already used it with precision against Ukraine. It is not a nuclear weapon, either. Its emergence all but signals the end of Ukraine if this war continues. Oreshnik is a new type of Russian ballistic missile capable of reaching speeds exceeding Mach 10, surviving reentry temperatures of 4,000 °C, and delivering kinetic force that rivals that of tactical nuclear weapons. The Oreshnik isn’t just fast; it’s a newly engineered and completely different weapon of war. According to a report by RT, this weapon has come to fruition in less than a year.…
I put off writing this piece for as long as humanly possible. Not because there wasn’t enough material, but because every time I thought about it, my eyes nearly rolled out of my skull. Our editorial director, Sean McCoy, pitched me on covering the fishing lure nail trend a while back. I accidentally forgot to. Then our favorite staff writer, Andrew McLemore, pitched me again on this growing fishing fashion trend coverage. Once again, I gave it a soft pass. But here we are. Fishing fashion is having a moment so big that even my staunch cynicism can’t pretend it…
The city of Richmond, Virginia has spiked the ATF’s access to its license plate readers after determining the agency had used it to enforce immigration laws several times this year. The Augusta Free Press reports the Richmond Police Department discovered the ATF’s misuse of the system in early June, when an administrator was told by the third-party vendor of the license plate readers that two recent searches from an ATF analyst had “accessed Illinois vehicle data with ICE in the query field which is a violation of Illinois law.” The administrator did a quick check and…
I carry a concealed carry handgun, but that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate a spare firearm. I mean, I have four tires on my car, but I keep an extra in the trunk, too. Same goes for my guns…which is why I always have a truck gun. What’s that, you ask? A truck gun is one name applied to a simple concept. You may also hear it as trunk (with an n) gun, but the terms mean the same thing. It’s a gun kept in the car to provide you with a little extra firepower. With tons of guns on the…
Shotguns are making quite the comeback in recent years. Somehow the gospel of the gauge has reached the ears of shooters, and more and more are adopting the tactical shotgun for home defense needs. It helps that shotguns have gotten considerably better in the last few years, and semi-auto shotguns have reached a point of reliability where they can be trusted for the task of home and self-defense. In 2023 you have plenty of shotgun options. I wouldn’t say too many, but enough that it would be difficult to combine pumps and semi-autos without producing a multi-thousand-word attack on tactical…
When it comes to our rights, polling shouldn’t matter. We don’t forfeit rights because it might be politically popular. Free speech doesn’t go away because enough people don’t like what you want to say and you don’t lose your right to be free of unreasonable search and seizure simply because enough people think it should be. Yet we still listen to polls because it dictates what politicians are going to do. A recent one by Fox News is likely to get a lot of use going forward, but it shouldn’t. After all, based on what we can see, there’s more…
Watch the review video of the Mossberg MC2C. This is a review of the Mossberg MC2C but to start I want to take you back a couple of years and talk about cars…In the 1970’s you could still buy a car that didn’t have power steering or power brakes. In fact, for many models, those were available options – with an extra charge. Some models simply did not offer power-assisted features at all. That concept might seem funny to us now, but that is how most of the technology that we take for granted is introduced. First, it is available…
New from Smith & Wesson is the Volunteer™ Series MSR platform called the Volunteer XV Pro. I have been a fan of their previous M&P15 Sport lineup after seeing how well they perform for the price, so I was excited about this new upgraded option. Straight from the factory, the Volunteer XV Pro provides the advantage of high-end accessories coming from Radian™, Magpul, B5 Systems, and Bravo Company. Featuring 5R rifling, an upgraded flat trigger, and Primary Weapons Systems muzzle brake, this factory rifle is a great option. For those who want to save money and avoid the process of…
An Illinois man using a leaf blower in his own yard was fatally shot by his 79-year-old neighbor during an argument, authorities said, marking the latest incident in which people are gunned down while going about their everyday lives. William Martys, 59, was using a leaf blower in his yard at his Antioch home on April 12 when he was approached by his next-door neighbor, Ettore Lacchei. The two argued, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office said.During the altercation, “Lacchei shot Martys in the head,” the sheriff’s office said in a news release. An investigation into Martys’ death found that Lacchei “had various…
WASHINGTON (AP) —President Joe Biden is set to host President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. of the Philippines for White House talks Monday as concerns grow about the Chinese navy’s harassment of Philippine vessels in the South China Sea. Marcos’ visit to Washington comes after the U.S. and Philippines last week completed their largest war drills ever and as the two countries’ air forces on Monday will hold their first joint fighter jet training in the Philippines since 1990. The Philippines this year agreed to give the U.S. access to four more bases on the islands as the U.S. looks to deter…

The International Monetary Fund has published its multi-year plan to implement a central bank digital currency or CBDC. This is a necessary step to ensure the slaves never seek escape from the invisible prison the masters have built. The Endgame: Central Bank Digital Currency In order to fully control people, they need to control what they can buy, and sell, and how much they can do without permission. The slave state is expanding, and if humanity allows this to happen, quite frankly, we deserve it. In an April 10th document published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) called IMF Approach…
Do you want a way to hone your shotgun skills before the start of hunting season? Hunting Doves Or do you love the thrill of competition and want to see how your shooting skills stack up compared to other shooters? Skeet shooting (as well as trap and sporting clays) is a great way to do just that. Trap Shooting The good news is that you can get started in clay target sports with pretty much any shotgun. But if your main goal is to bust more clays, score more points, and impress your buddies, you’re going to want a shotgun…
MINNEAPOLIS — On the morning of May 28, 2020, U.S. Gen. Joseph L. Lengyel warned two of the Pentagon’s highest-ranking officials that the situation in Minneapolis was about to get a lot worse. Minneapolis police were expecting as many as 75,000 protesters to converge on the city that weekend in response to George Floyd’s murder three days before, Lengyel wrote in an email to Deputy Secretary of Defense David Nordquist and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley. The Minnesota National Guard had 200 military police officers standing by to assist, he wrote. “They are prepared to be…
