Springfield Armory and Aimpoint did not just bolt a red dot onto an Echelon and call it innovation. The 4.0FC COA feels like a factory-built optic pistol that actually starts where most plate-mounted guns stop, with a lower, cleaner, tougher setup that makes a whole lot of sense the moment you pick it up. Springfield Armory’s Echelon series has already established itself as one of the most modern striker-fired pistol platforms on the market. With the release of the new COA-equipped models, Springfield and Aimpoint are taking the concept one step further by offering a factory-integrated optic system designed from…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadFree speech has always come with a price. Unfortunately, now that price has started looking a lot more like a body count. It started off in the 1990s as political correctness. Then, during the COVID years, it evolved into cancel culture, marked by lost jobs, public shaming, deplatforming, and the destruction of businesses, among other consequences. But now? We’re entering the next and far more dangerous phase of silencing people with different opinions. People aren’t just being canceled anymore. They’re being physically attacked—and in some cases, killed—for what they believe, say, or represent. That…
Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD) hopped in with one of its own for the final episode of its “Riding Shotgun” series: off-highway expert Officer Micah White. Officer White not only serves as an active member of law enforcement, but also as the AZGFD’s Off-Highway Vehicle (OHV) Law Enforcement Program Coordinator.

On a drive with AZGFD’s Public Affairs and Media Relations Director, Michael Colaianni, Officer White shared his key tips to staying in-bounds while off-highway exploring. Safety…
Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadGroup membership during collapse. It sounds simple until it isn’t. Someone knocks. They need help. You know them—or maybe you don’t. But they’re standing at your front door. They’re tired, scared, hungry, maybe sick. And they need help. You have stew cooking. Their kids haven’t eaten in days. You know that sharing your food is taking away from your family. Every meal you share with other is one meal closer to you and your loved ones starving. That moment is not the moment to start thinking about how your group handles new members. Unless…
When I approached the entrance to Bryce Canyon National Park last spring, my heart sank. The line of cars was so long that I couldn’t see the entry gate. Once I finally got in, finding a parking space took another solid hour. I had planned a 32-mile backpacking trip through the park, and was concerned that the crowds would spoil my dreams of peace and solace in the backcountry. After I set off on my hike, however, about 2 miles in, everyone else faded away. I was able to enjoy the striking rock formations and landscapes all by myself. By…
Republicans in Michigan’s legislature have already introduced a permitless carry bill this session, but they’re also taking aim at some of the state’s “gun-free zones.” Under a newly-introduced House bill, several locations that are currently off-limits to concealed carry would be open to lawful gun owners, though even if the permitless carry bill were to become law, a carry license would still be required in bars, churches, hospitals, arenas, entertainment venues and several other locations. State Rep. Jay DeBoyer, R-Clay Township, said giving private property owners the option to allow concealed carry in these places is…
Mandi Blewett had been operating an angling lodge on British Columbia’s Dean River for a decade when the flood came. In 2010, record rains deluged the region, and the river spilled over its banks. The torrent was so violent that it altered the course of the river, which slithered toward their home and business. “It was running right in front of our lodge. And it just ate away,” Blewett told GearJunkie. “We knew we had to move.” When the water had receded, Blewett, her then-husband, and their two girls, Dylan and Zoe, relocated their lives and livelihood a kilometer downstream.…

President Donald Trump’s promised one-time $1,776 payment for U.S. service members dubbed a “Warrior Dividend” is being framed as both a financial boost and a symbolic gesture tied to the nation’s founding.“We are sending every soldier $1,776 — and the checks are already on the way,” Trump said. “Nobody deserves it more than our military.”The announcement made Wednesday evening during a nationally televised address immediately sparked questions across the force—not just about the money itself but about who actually qualifies, when it would show up on paychecks, whether it would be taxed, and whether it would affect existing pay and…
