The Survival Movie Series begins with one of the most well-known survival films: Jeremiah Johnson. It hooks you in the first few minutes with the promise of freedom and adventure, then spends the next two hours grinding the main character, Jeremiah Johnson, down with one hard truth after another: survival can be really difficult. A man heads into the mountains to live free. No plan. No real skills. Just determination and a rifle. What he gets is a relentless series of tests and lessons—about the land, about solitude, and about the cost of learning too late. For anyone who has…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadYou’ve got the gear. You’ve stocked the shelves. You even got your family to humor you with a fire drill. But let me ask you something… Are you prepared for a normal Tuesday? Because most preppers aren’t. They’re dialed in for the apocalypse. But a job loss, medical issue, or house fire? That’s what trips people up. And that’s what this article is about. I’m not here to dismiss the big stuff. Never say never. But this isn’t doomsday-prepper talk. It’s about probability, not paranoia. It’s about what’s most likely to hit your life…

As Cam noted earlier this week, the Second Amendment Foundation is suing the sheriff in Contra Costa, California, over some rather bizarre concealed carry rules.  In particular, he will not issue a permit for any firearm that has a red dot sight or a flashlight, as well as any single-action only firearm. While I vehemently disagree with his position on SAO firearms, one can almost see the argument there. After all, single-action handguns have to be carried cocked and locked, which makes a lot of people nervous. It’s a non-issue, though, but I also understand…

More and more people, especially those in urban and suburban areas, have come to realize the importance of being ready for emergencies. One concern that is common among urban preppers is how to prepare effectively without letting the entire neighborhood know you’re stocked and ready. That’s where a low-profile survival plan comes in. If you live in an apartment complex, a cul-de-sac, or a tightly knit community, drawing attention to your preparedness efforts can make you a target when things go awry. The last thing you want during a crisis is to become a target. Let’s look at ways to…

A senior non-commissioned officer stationed at Fort Hood has been sentenced to 25 years in prison after a military jury convicted him of raping and sexually abusing two children, concluding one of the most serious criminal cases prosecuted by the Army in recent years. Sgt. Maj. Victor M. Rivera, 49, a telecommunications operations chief assigned to Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 11th Corps Signal Brigade, III Armored Corps, was sentenced June 12 by a military judge following his conviction at the Lawrence Williams Judicial Center at Fort Hood, according to the Army. The sentence represents one of the most significant punishments…

The Fischer Speedmax 9 RL BOA is a downright ridiculous cross-country ski boot. If you watched any of the cross-country events in the 2026 Winter Olympics, they were regularly featured. I even saw the non-BOA model on the feet of Norway’s now-legendary Johannes Klæbo and a whole bunch of biathletes. So I certainly felt a bit of impostor syndrome as I cranked up the dials at the Frisco Nordic Center in Summit County, Colo., to put these seriously high-performance nordic skate boots to the test. Sure, I’ve been cross-country skiing for more than 40 years. But that doesn’t mean I’m…

Like it or not, the stereotype of the typical gun owner as a middle-aged white dude didn’t materialize out of the ether. It’s based on the fact that, for a long time, that’s what the gun rights movement looked like. That’s who talked to lawmakers and who spoke out at demonstrations. An image formed not because of anything but that’s what reflected the perceived reality. But women and minorities have always been part of the community. These days, though, they’re a faster-growing part of it, and that means these are groups we need to put…

United States ruler Donald Trump claims that since democrats are “blocking funding” for the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) personnel, he can have ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents fill in instead. He said he will make this happen if democrats refuse to unblock funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which governs both ICE and the TSA. The partial shutdown that began in February has left thousands of TSA employees without pay, resulting in lengthy security lines at airports across the country. Both TSA and ICE are parts of DHS; however, the latter agency received $75 billion from Trump’s “big, beautiful…

It might sound like heresy to diehards, but nearly all of my favorite ski days of the last decade have been during the spring. Sure, midwinter powder turns are fun, but the spoils — and occasional undernose sunburn — of mid-April and May ski days stick with me much longer. Climbing to the top of a remote peak, waiting for the snow to flip to corn, and making buttery turns back to the car is a borderline religious experience, complete with challenges, thrills, and a lingering sense of accomplishment. Living in Oregon’s Cascades, spring is widely synonymous with volcano season,…

Firearm preemption laws are in place in over 40 states across the country, and undoing those laws is one of the top priorities of the gun control lobby and their allies. Without preemption in place, localities can adopt their own gun control ordinances more restrictive than state law, and the patchwork quilt of local restrictions can lead to both legal jeopardy for gun owners and a variety of local laws that can be like playing legal Whack-a-Mole for Second Amendment organizations.  With Republican supermajorities in place in Missouri, there’s no what for anti-gunners to scrap…

A major gun-rights group has filed a reply brief in a lawsuit currently before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court challenging warrantless searches and seizures for licensed firearms dealers in the commonwealth. According to the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), the lawsuit challenges Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) regulations and County Sheriff policies that require an applicant for a license to sell firearms in the state to agree to warrantless searches by the State Police or their designee to ensure compliance with state law. Furthermore, these inspections would allow regulators to seize license holders or employees for up to two hours, compel them to…

The Second Amendment isn’t about hunting. We all know that, and anyone who actually reads the Second Amendment can see that neither the word “hunting” nor any of its synonyms appears anywhere in the text. But the Second Amendment protects the weapons used for hunting, as well as others. Back when it was ratified, the guns for hunting and the guns for defense were pretty much the same, so it was obvious.Today, there’s more of a distinction between them, though there’s still a fair bit of overlap.And because of that, attacks on the Second Amendment…

Another day, another viral claim about the AR-15 and once again, it doesn’t hold up under even basic scrutiny. In a recent breakdown, Colion Noir takes aim at a statement made during testimony supporting gun control legislation, where a speaker claimed the AR-15 is “more powerful” than the military’s M4. That’s not just misleading. It’s flat-out wrong. “In fact, the AR-15 is more powerful than the standard military issue M4,” the claim stated. Noir’s response? “No, that’s not just wrong, that’s confidently wrong.” Let’s break it down. The AR-15 and the M4 are essentially built on the same platform. They…
