Imagine you’re a first responder. Your patient has just broken their leg and is wet, underdressed, and nearly hypothermic. If you don’t have any clothes to change them into, you may have to offer your own, or some purchased for the occasion. And if the injury is serious enough, those nice base layers might get cut right off, never to be used again. That was the scenario that merino wool brand Minus 33 tackled head-on when it launched a program in 2017 to donate its factory seconds to a local search-and-rescue organization. The Search & Rescue (SAR) kit program repurposes…
Bans on so-called assault weapons are popular in anti-gun states, to say the least, but those days might be numbered. The Supreme Court has agreed to finally hear a couple of assault weapon ban cases, and I think everyone knows more or less how those will go. There’s almost no chance that the same Court that gave us Bruen will uphold bans on modern sporting rifles. But before the Supreme Court decided to hear it, numerous anti-gun states had passed such laws. Virginia, this year, became the latest.And, at the Washington Post, Stephen Gutowski has…

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is “fomenting hate” after calling for the Israeli ruler’s arrest. Mamdani has described Israel’s military campaign against Palestine as genocide and called the Israeli prime minister a “war criminal.” The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in November 2024 over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity in the enclave, including “starvation as a method of warfare” and “other inhumane acts.” Obviously, neither has been arrested, and Netanyahu and Gallant are still out committing the crimes they’ve been accused of.…
Oregon voters will not decide this November whether hunting, fishing, and many common agricultural practices should be treated as animal cruelty. The Oregon Elections Division announced that Initiative Petition 28 failed to collect enough valid signatures to qualify for the November 3 general election ballot. The campaign needed 117,173 valid signatures. State officials determined that 104,262 of the signatures submitted were valid, leaving the measure nearly 13,000 signatures short. What Initiative Petition 28 Would Have Done Black bear sow and cub; (photo/Shutterstock) Known as the People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions Act, or PEACE Act, the proposal would…
Last week on Bearing Arms’ Cam & Company I talked with firearms instructor Jackie Emslie about the 15th annual training event for women hosted by Legally Armed In Detroit, and I’m pleased to report that the event was a huge success. Founded by longtime Second Amendment advocate Rick Ector, the event has grown from about 100 women in its first year to more than 2,000 participants, most of whom have had little to no formal experience with firearms. The event, held at Recoil Firearms in Taylor, drew lines wrapped around the building as women of all experience…
The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) is pushing back against calls for more gun control following Sunday’s deadly shooting at Seattle Center, arguing the tragedy underscores a crime problem rather than a gun problem. In a statement released Monday, CCRKBA Executive Director Andrew Gottlieb criticized Seattle officials for repeatedly referring to the incident as “gun violence” while failing to focus on the alleged criminal behavior behind the attack. “It took 17 hours for police to acknowledge the suspect they had in custody is only 15 years old,” Gottlieb said. “And then Seattle Police Chief…
Despite both genres being individually well-represented, open-world RPGs aren’t actually all that common, so we need to cherish each one of them. Everybody knows Skyrim and The Witcher 3, or even modern greats like Crimson Desert, but the same cannot be said for every game. In fact, a few true gems have been largely forgotten by time, remembered only by select die-hard fans and referenced solely in these types of articles. Let’s change that. If you find yourself staring at your video game library, unsure what to play, then these forgotten open-world RPGs could bring a spark back into your…
B&T USA is making a big investment in its American manufacturing footprint, and the company says customers should start seeing the benefits almost immediately. The firearms and suppressor manufacturer announced this week that it has significantly expanded its production facility in Herriman, Utah, transforming what was a small operation into a full-scale manufacturing hub in less than a year. The numbers tell the story. When B&T USA began upgrading the 88,000-square-foot facility in late 2025, the operation consisted of just three employees, two industrial 3-D printers and a single CNC machine. Today, the Utah location employs more than 55 people…

Six F-16 Fighting Falcon pilots from Shaw Air Force Base, South Carolina, received the Distinguished Flying Cross on May 5 for flying into heavily defended Iranian airspace during Operation Midnight Hammer, the June 2025 strikes that targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities. Gen. Adrian Spain, commander of Air Combat Command, presented the awards during a ceremony at Shaw. The six pilots are all assigned to the 55th Fighter Squadron, part of the 20th Fighter Wing. “Operation Midnight Hammer, the strike that helped end the 12-day war, doesn’t happen without these six Airmen,” Spain said. The Pilots and the Mission The pilots who…

There are currently seven candidates vying the GOP nod in the crowded Maine gubernatorial primaries. Bearing Arms had a chance to interview four of them and Garrett Mason was one. Mason is a Maine politician and businessman. He entered politics at the age of 25, now 40-year-old Mason wants to take his experiences as a state legislator, former Maine senate majority leader, and from the private sector and put them to use. “The government can be a problem, not only in your personal life, but in your business,” says Mason. After spending eight years operating…
GOTLAND, Sweden (AP) — The war game scenario was this: One of NATO ’s newest members, Sweden, was under threat by an unnamed country that was building up troops along the military alliance’s eastern border. And in an unusual twist, non-NATO member Ukraine was there to advise on drone warfare. The Associated Press was allowed to witness the Swedish-led military exercise this week as Europe faces not only the threat of Russia but the wavering of NATO’s most powerful member, the United States. The war game that also involved U.S. forces played out with a real threat in mind. For…
“Suicidal empathy” is, basically, the idea of someone trying so hard to be what they consider a good person that they make stupid decisions that will put either themselves or society as a whole at risk. For example, opposing ICE arresting illegal alien pedophiles simply because you don’t like ICE arresting illegal aliens. You think that you care so much that your decisions are actually dangerous.Of course, no one thinks they’re making those kinds of decisions at the time, but it’s obvious to most anyone who isn’t wearing ideological blinders. However, sometimes, suicidal empathy isn’t about…
Gun Owners of America is sounding the alarm over a new ATF proposal and their message is simple: this isn’t reform. It’s just a smaller version of the same problem. At the center of the fight is a proposed rule tied to the ATF and DOJ’s broader package of 34 regulatory changes. The rule would adjust how long firearm transaction records (specifically Form 4473s) are kept. Right now, under policies from the Biden era, those records can be held indefinitely once a dealer goes out of business. The new proposal? Cut that down to 20 to 30 years. Sounds like…
Ford’s plan to spend $1.8 billion to build electric vehicles at a plant near Toronto is now complete. Except that instead of $1.8 billion, the costs have spiraled to $5 billion. And the EV the plant was going to build is now gas and diesel-powered Super Duty pickups. Still, it’s good news for Ford and for customers. Tariffs be damned. Plant Has Taken A Long Route To Pickups Credit: Ford In 2020, Ford was still all-in on electric. The automaker announced that it would switch its plant in Oakville, Ontario, Canada, from building the Ford Edge and Lincoln Nautilus to building…
Anti-gun lawmakers like to brag about how many “lives are saved” by the restrictive laws they pass that severely infringe on the Second Amendment rights of lawful citizens. Usually, of course, they have no proof that their laws actually save lives, but they love to brag about it anyway. And their cronies in the anti-gun media join in on the farce, parroting their talking points and bragging about supposed lives saved. Now, in the category of “things we didn’t expect, but should have,” a gun-ban proponent in the Minnesota legislature is bragging about lives saved by a law she says…
If you’re new to prepping and on a tight budget, you should take a look at this list. The survival items listed here aren’t just inexpensive, they could be very useful in a disaster scenario. Tarps, for instance, have at least 25 survival uses such as building shelter, patching leaks, collecting rainwater, and so forth. Duct tape has even more uses. You can use it to fix worn-out shoes, patch a leak in your tent, make a butterfly bandage, and more. By stockpiling multipurpose items, you won’t have to spend as much money on things that only have one function.…
Second Amendment groups are hailing the actions of an armed citizen who helped stop a violent felon who was shooting at cars on a busy thoroughfare in Cambridge, Massachusetts on Monday. The Gun Owners Action League, which is the largest 2A group in the state, noted that the suspect could have been behind bars for randomly firing shots with a gun he couldn’t legally possess back in 2020. But the group also praised the retired Marine who returned fire on Monday, helping to save countless lives in the process. Tyler Brown, previously convicted for shooting at…
