United States senator and war hawk, Lindsey Graham, has said that Israel is at the forefront of cutting-edge weapons development. He said that future wars are already “being planned in Israel,” as it surpasses the U.S.’s abilities. Israel is advancing down the road of new weaponry far beyond us,” he added. Graham added that Washington should invest in Israel’s defense industry rather than “just writing a check” for military aid.“ He made these comments in Tel Aviv after meeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and opposition leader Yair Lapid on Monday. “I like that idea. The wars of the future are…
A high school senior night in Rhode Island turned into chaos Monday when a gunman opened fire inside the Dennis M. Lynch Arena, killing two people and critically wounding three others before fatally shooting himself. According to on-scene coverage from WCVB, police say the suspect shot five people inside the rink. Two victims died, and three remain in critical condition. Players and families were bused to the Pawtucket Police Department for interviews as detectives began piecing together what happened. One woman leaving the police station identified the gunman as her father. “My father was a shooter… He shot my family.…
National Rifle Association members are navigating the conflict between the Association and NRA Foundation; the Friends of NRA Program is still on with funds going to other (c)(3)s. Earlier this year the National Rifle Association filed a lawsuit against the NRA Foundation. The NRA alleges that the Foundation is withholding crucial funds earmarked for NRA flagship programs. The NRA said that some programs — like ones benefiting law enforcement — were cut over 55 percent. NRA members and supporters have been worried about the state of the Friends of the NRA programs since this feud…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. By the time we got to this stage, I always thought that most people would understand what was happening. But of course, that isn’t true at all. Even though we are literally right on the brink of an apocalyptic war with Iran, most of the population doesn’t seem too concerned. But they should be. The Iranian regime has already shown that it is willing to gun down tens of thousands of its own people. When it comes to securing the survival of their regime, there is no…
Gun registration is something almost every anti-gunner wants, and every gun rights advocate opposes. It’s not just that gun registration leads to confiscation; it’s that it’s absolutely ridiculous if the reason is to combat crime, which is how it’s always sold to the American people. Luckily, we don’t have gun registration, do we?Uh…yeah, about that.I’ve always said that the Form 4473 we fill out when we buy a gun is a kind of registration in and of itself. It’s an inefficient one, but still registration. The upside was that with face-to-face transfers, you weren’t locked…
Mikhail Gorbachev had been the leader of the Soviet Union for just 13 days when he was suddenly faced with an international crisis.On March 24, 1985, a Soviet sentry shot and killed U.S. Army Maj. Arthur D. “Nick” Nicholson Jr. near a tank storage building in Ludwigslust, East Germany. Nicholson was unarmed and in his uniform. His vehicle carried clearly marked plates identifying him as a member of the U.S. Military Liaison Mission, an organization authorized by both governments to operate in the other’s territory.The U.S. Department of War officially considers his death a murder. It also considers Nicholson the…
A humble World War II veteran who died more than 40 years ago is about to be awarded the nation’s highest honor.Master Sgt. Roddie Edmonds of Knoxville, Tennessee, whose defiance of German captors in a prisoner of war camp saved the lives of almost 200 Jewish American troops during the war, is posthumously receiving the Medal of Honor. “We’re thrilled, we’re absolutely thrilled.

At SHOT Show 2026, Beretta leaned hard into the training and plinking lane with a new rimfire pistol that’s clearly trying to feel like more than “just a .22.” Meet the B22 Jaguar Tac Metal, a full-size .22 LR pistol designed to train new shooters, burn bulk ammo, and still feel substantial in the hand. This isn’t an ultralight rimfire toy; it’s built with weight, balance, and modularity in mind. Built to Train, Not Just Plink The B22 Jaguar is built around a modular chassis fire control system, allowing users to swap grip frames, upper assemblies, fire control components, and…
If anyone still needs proof that gun crime is already illegal (and aggressively prosecuted) look no further than the case of Filiberto Walle. Federal prosecutors say Walle, a 24-year-old from Edinburgh, Texas, pleaded guilty to running an unlicensed firearms dealing operation that stretched from Colorado to Texas. And this wasn’t some paperwork oopsie. This was a full-on straw-purchase pipeline built to move big-ticket rifles across state lines. According to court records, Walle spent the summer of 2023 acquiring .50 BMG rifles from federally licensed gun dealers in Colorado. These included Barrett M82A1 and Desert Tech HTI rifles, firearms often labeled…
Big Rock Sports, a longtime distributor in the fishing, hunting, and outdoor space, has officially pulled the plug. According to a report from SGB Media, the Graham, North Carolina–based company filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy liquidation, listing just over $100 million in liabilities and making it clear that most unsecured creditors won’t see a dime. Court filings show $100.9 million in total liabilities, including $83.2 million in unsecured claims, many of which stem from active litigation with vendors, landlords, and service providers. After administrative costs are paid, the bankruptcy filing states there will be no funds available for unsecured creditors.…
I’ve been a fan of Griffin Armament for a while, having used their M2 iron sights for years, enjoying the quality of their silencers, and, more recently, appreciating significant value in their optics line after reviewing the 1-10x Mil-R SFP LPVO. Perhaps I’ve been working backwards, but it made sense that I should take one of the company’s rifles for a spin, and what better than the close quarters configuration of the day, the Griffin Armament MK2 CQB 11.5″. As America’s rifle, the AR-15 has no shortage of manufacturers competing for a spot on your shopping list. Why shouldn’t they?…
Kyle Rittenhouse made a name for himself by defending himself from a mob that was clearly bent on murdering him. He fired four shots, killed two convicted felons, and injured a third who was pointing a gun at him. Not a bad night’s work. He was then forced to endure a ridiculous trial that was more about politics than the law, and deal with an entire segment of people who think he’s racist because he shot black people, even though everyone he shot was white.To say that it shaped him to some degree is putting…
If you’ve spent any time listening to the Shawn Ryan Show, you already know it doesn’t do highlight reels or Hollywood nonsense. And the recent conversation with Nick Brokhausen might be one of the most unfiltered looks yet at what close combat actually does to a human being—and how it never really stops doing it. Brokhausen, a MACV-SOG recon veteran who ran deep behind enemy lines in Vietnam and Laos, doesn’t romanticize anything. He talks about killing at arm’s length. About using an entrenching tool when there was nothing else. About a shotgun at eight feet and the kind of…
A federal appeals court has struck down the law banning a nonviolent felon from ever owning firearms again. On January 27, a three-judge panel of the New Orleans-based 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, in the case U.S. v. Hembree, found the law unconstitutional as applied to defendant Charles Hembree. As background, Hembree was charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). He has a single predicate felony conviction: a 2018 conviction for simple possession of methamphetamine. According to court records, Hembree was not accused of trafficking drugs, committing violence or using…
