Perhaps my favorite fiction author is Larry Correia. His Monster Hunter International series is incredible, though the Grimnoir series is my favorite. He’s done others, and one that I think a lot of people sleep on is the novel he did with John D. Brown called “Gun Runner.” It’s a science fiction work that, frankly, I enjoyed so much. While I’m hoping we get a second book there, it seems there’s something else in the works in that universe.A Kickstarter for a graphic novel version of the book.The 2021 Dragon Award-winning military science fiction novel…
Gun owners (or most of them, anyway) are rightfully delighted with U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix’s decision that much of the National Firearms Act has been rendered moot now that the making and transfer taxes on suppressors, short-barreled firearms, and “any other weapons” have been zeroed out by Congress in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. As Reason’s Jacob Sullum writes in his latest syndicated column, though, even folks who have no plans to purchase a suppressor or short-barreled rifle in the future should be pleased by how Hendrix reached his decision. Hendrix didn’t decide…
More than 100,000 surplus M14 rifles once used by the U.S. military are expected to go on sale to the public beginning early next year through the Civilian Marksmanship Program. The organization is a federally chartered nonprofit that plans to sell the guns. CMP CEO and board Chairman Jerry O’Keefe said the organization is targeting a price below $2,000 per rifle, though final pricing has not yet been announced.” Every buyer is limited to two weapons apiece, and sales are expected in January. The CMP could reconsider this limit as sales go on. CMP CEO and board Chairman Jerry O’Keefe…
I keep trying to keep myself calm regarding the court’s decision on the NFA registry requirement for suppressors and short-barreled long guns. I want it to mean the end of the NFA requirements entirely, and while they’re gone for now, there’s no guarantee they won’t return down the road. I want to temper my expectations. Still gonna SBR my home defense rifle and put a can on it, though.However, it’s always possible that an appeal will come.That’s not stopping Giffords from absolutely losing its mind over it.Trump’s Justice Department just failed to defend nearly 100…
PHOENIX (AP) — All eyes were on Navajo Code Talker Thomas H. Begay. The 101-year-old veteran saluted while the national anthem played on Friday, kicking off a day of recognition honoring him and the other Navajo recruits who famously used their native language to keep military secrets during World War II. Begay, one of the last two living Code Talkers, made the long trip from his home on the Navajo Nation to the Arizona State Capitol for the event. He was joined by family members and dozens of descendants of other Code Talkers. “I am so damn proud,” said Begay,…

The United States once planned to drop more than 1,000 bomb-carrying bats over Japanese cities. A psychologist taught pigeons to guide missiles. Cold War troops were issued a recoilless weapon capable of launching a nuclear warhead. British engineers built a giant pair of rocket-powered wheels stuffed with explosives and expected the contraption to drive itself up a beach. These weren’t concepts that lived only on paper. Every weapon on this list reached at least the prototype or testing stage. Several entered military service, and some were used in combat. Here are 15 of the strangest weapons military engineers actually built.…

TopOak’s Galaxy Pro is a lower-priced hardshell rooftop tent with a lot packed into it. It has an aluminum shell, roof bars, integrated power access, a heater vent, interior lighting, and enough room inside to sleep without feeling pinned against the walls. I tested the Galaxy Pro with TopOak’s Air & Foam Camping Mattress and 270-degree awning. The tent itself impressed me more than the full install did. Once it was mounted and set up, the Galaxy Pro was comfortable, practical, and easy to like. Getting it there took work. The mattress was one of the better rooftop tent sleep…
Don’t read the comments; something I can’t always do. What happens when the comments really fly off the handle? Our buddy Jason from Texas Gun Vault has a balanced approach. The internet is a vicious and crazy place. Ever since the days of BBSes and sending over a private “whisper,” people have been just awful in front of and behind each other’s digital backs. Content creators, writers, bloggers, journalists — pretty much anyone who puts themselves out there in the public, opens themselves up to an endless supply of scrutiny. Our good friend Jason from…
The electric car industry was, for a little while there, the new gold rush. It was relatively easy to get public or private funding for promising battery-powered vehicles like the Fisker Ocean, infrastructure support was growing, and investors were terrified of being left out of the next big thing. In retrospect, it’s obvious that this was an economic bubble. Of course, it was obvious five years ago, too (and it was especially obvious to Toyota). Fast, easy money is never sustainable, and the scrapyard is full of electric cars that were supposed to lead the industry into a new era.…
This article was originally published by Joshua Mawhorter at The Mises Institute. This year in the United States, we recognize the 250th anniversary of the final presentation of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. To the informed readers of the Declaration—mainly penned by Thomas Jefferson, but with the help of others—it is evident that Jefferson borrowed concepts and language from John Locke in terms of rights, the role of government, and consent. In order to critique the British government and argue a case for independence, Jefferson borrowed from Locke’s social contract theory to demonstrate the limited role of…
Military.com has learned that a Navy veteran faces attempted murder charges after allegedly committing a brutal attack in Escondido, Calif., against a 69-year-old Army veteran who is a huge supporter of President Donald Trump. Thomas Caleb Butler, 32, a U.S. Navy veteran and resident of Escondido, was taken into custody this week without incident and booked at the Vista Detention Facility for attempted murder. A San Diego County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson told Military.com on Friday that Butler was set to appear at a local courthouse at 1 p.m. local time for his arraignment. The victim is 69-year-old Kerry Sheron, known…
A hunting backpack is tasked with one of the most difficult things you can demand of gear: hauling massive loads of meat from the backcountry. But they must remain light and nimble for use while hunting. Editorial Director Sean McCoy and GearJunkie Hunt/Fish Editor Rachelle Schrute initially created this guide while hunting elk, deer, and bear in Colorado and Montana. In our most recent test round, contributor Morgan Nowels tested three big game hunting packs for 5 months. In that time, he went on dozens of hunts in three different states. This article focuses on larger packs designed to haul…
It’s no surprise that I’m a fan of Brandon Herrera for the 23rd District of Texas. He’s one of us, with a massive gun collection and a dark sense of humor that has gotten him in a spot of difficulty from time to time, but none of it has stuck since it was, in fact, humor. Hell, his opponent and her supporters couldn’t even get their attack over him owning a copy of Mein Kampf to stick, in part because the clip they used cut out the part where he talked about how deranged Hitler…

When it comes to the weather, this summer is looking like a mixed bag of extremes. On the one hand, we’ve got a “Super El Niño” brewing that could bring many severe storms. And when it’s not storming, most forecasters expect a hotter-than-average summer. Either way, an unpredictable climate means one thing for us GearJunkies: Make sure you’re prepared for any scenario. This week’s batch of new gear showcases just how useful camping gear can be when you don’t know what to expect from the Great Outdoors. We’ve got innovative coolers, reliable power stations, streamlined hydration, waterproof jackets, and a…
Memorial Day remembrance tends to cluster. In public memory and in public observance, it gravitates to certain conflicts and generations: World War II, Vietnam and, more recently, Iraq and Afghanistan. The ceremonies, the tributes, the coverage and the cultural weight of the day concentrate there. That is understandable. Those wars produced the largest losses, the longest national arguments and the deepest generational marks. But the 1.1 million Americans who have died in military service across this country’s history did not all die in those wars, and Memorial Day belongs to all of them — including the ones whose conflicts never…
