Whether you’re looking for a buddy to take mountain biking, skiing, running, kayaking, or hiking, most dogs are up for anything given a bit of training and encouragement — and, of course, the right gear. Our editors have traveled thousands of miles with their dogs, by car, foot, ski, and almost any other means of adventure. Needless to say, we’ve tried a lot of gear and have come up with a few makeshift solutions of our own. These things not only make a human’s life easier when traveling and exploring with their pup, but they also ensure the health, safety,…
President Donald Trump is in a somewhat unique position. He’s got a second first year in office. It’s not his very first, of course, but it’s his first year because everything had to be set up in order for him to govern. There were no incumbency benefits with an existing staff and infrastructure. Only Grover Cleveland shares that experience, and since he served as president at the end of the 19th Century, we can’t really ask him what it was like. Trump is the only president alive to know that feeling, which is kind of cool, really. …
The National Firearms Act trust remains the most practical vehicle for owning suppressors and short-barreled rifles, despite regulatory changes that reduced some of its original advantages. I’ve navigated this process multiple times, and the trust structure still offers meaningful benefits that individual ownership simply can’t match. The landscape has shifted since 2016, but understanding how to properly establish and maintain an NFA trust is more relevant than ever in 2026. Why Trusts Still Matter When ATF Rule 41F took effect in July 2016, it eliminated the chief executive law enforcement officer (CLEO) signoff requirement and mandated that all “responsible persons”…
A Utah father is facing six first-degree felony charges after a hike in Big Cottonwood Canyon left his three children in critical condition. Authorities released a detailed timeline that identifies weather exposure, delayed retreat, and medical emergencies among the primary factors in the case. The Hike Wasatch Mountain Range Broads Fork Twin Peaks Trail; (photo/Shutterstock) In early October, Micah Zephan Smith began the Broads Fork Trail hike with his children, ages 8, 4, and 2. The trail is a steep and strenuous route in Big Cottonwood Canyon that gains more than 2,000 feet in under 3 miles and is rated…
The name of the game for many businesses in 2025, not least of all knife manufacturers, has been adaptation to stay operational. An uncertain landscape of tariffs and the costs of raw materials left a looming specter of higher manufacturing costs. One tactic to combat raising prices, at least to the degree posed by the very highest tariff rates, is to produce goods domestically. In the knife world, plenty of brands manufacture in the U.S. Big dogs like Benchmade, Leatherman, Gerber, and Kershaw have been waving that flag for years. However, for smaller cottage brands, going domestic can be a…
Consider this a bookend to my last post about pro-Second Amendment immigrants, especially those coming from countries where the right to keep and bear arms doesn’t exist. Nigeria is one of those countries, though there’s been a push in recent months to change that and allow Nigerians subject to attack by Islamist terror groups like Boko Haram and its offshoots. One Nigerian official, though, is pouring cold water on that idea and claiming the country isn’t “mature” enough to allow citizens to keep and bear arms in self-defense. The Interim Chairman of the Caretaker Committee of…
Many working to improve timed runs, shuttle runs and sprints in the military feel the “need for speed. Adding calisthenics between these sets of speed and goal-pace running and swimming can be an effective way to combine muscle stamina, speed, agility and endurance into a time-saving routine.Here is a workout we did this week that focuses on a variety of testing events, including the Navy Physical Screening Test (PST), Air Force Initial Fitness Test (IFT), and any military timed run.Warmup with Pull-ups, Toe Touch Pyramid, Jog/Dynamic Stretch Between Sets, and Mile RunThis routine is to stretch and warm up before…
Arguably, time itself is a matter of form and function, but when it comes to reading time during outdoor ventures, the form of a proper field watch is the way to go. For more specialized use, there are tactical and dive builds, but we still lump them in with the general term “field watches.” To withstand years of use, whether for work or recreation, a watch needs a rugged case, bold numbers you can read in the dark, and an overall aesthetic you’ll be happy to have on your wrist every day. For us, several Vaer watches check all those…
It’s easy to take our freedoms for granted, especially if that’s all we’ve known. I don’t think that’s as much of an issue for Second Amendment advocates, given that we’re actively working to secure and strengthen those freedoms, but there are a lot of folks out there who don’t think much, if at all, about how unique the United States is when it comes to individual rights and liberties. I’d argue that some of the biggest champions of those freedoms are pro-Second Amendment immigrants, including those who’ve fled more repressive regimes and have actively embraced…
To understand the new smart watched and other pro devices of recent focus, we should look to Silicon Valley and the quantified movement. Apple’s Watch records exercise, tracks our moves throughout the day, checks the amount of time we are stood up and reminds us to get up and move around if we have been sat for too long – let’s not forget Tim Cooks “sitting is the new coolness” line. What we like: Angled second screen is quite useful.Durability is top notch.Better dual-screen software.Powerful hardware features. What we dislike: Less battery life than other options.Keyboard and trackpad are flimsy.No…
To understand the new politics stance and other pro nationals of recent times, we should look to Silicon Valley and the quantified movement of the latest generation. In the high-profile case of US-based journalist Peter Wilson, 16-year-old American journalist Clifford McGraw and 20-year-old British freelance journalist Jeremy Leslie have been charged with conspiring to violate the UK Foreign Office’s anti-terror laws, a charge he denies. On Monday, UK attorney Andy McDonald revealed that he had spoken. “Few worry about catching Covid anymore, as it’s just a matter of time before they do,” says Tea, a teacher at a school for…
