There’s no doubt that Missouri is one of, if not the most, pro-gun states in the nation. I mean, this is a state that took sanctuary status for the Second Amendment and enshrined it into law via the Second Amendment Preservation Act. Unfortunately, that law was overturned by the courts, which cited the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. (Cool, now do immigration sanctuary laws, guys.)Now, the state is once again considering how to bulk up its protections for the gun rights of Missourians, while trying not to cross the line where the law gets smacked…
Regional organizations unite to strategize on Second Amendment defense The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) is organizing the first-ever New England Firearms Advocacy Conference, scheduled for May 30, 2026, at Castle of Knights in Chicopee, Massachusetts. The event brings together six regional Second Amendment organizations: Connecticut Citizens Defense League, Massachusetts Gun Owners’ Action League, Gun Owners of Maine, New Hampshire Firearms Coalition, Rhode Island 2nd Amendment Coalition, and Vermont Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs. Conference chair Holly Sullivan, who serves as CCRKBA Director, explained the strategic thinking behind the regional approach. “We wanted to create…
The Florida Department of Health’s officials have released an update on a measles outbreak at a university. There have been 46 confirmed cases of measles across Collier County from January 1st to February 7th. Fifty-seven students at Ave Maria University are quarantined, so far, as the school works on providing free vaccinations to those who may want them. The vigorous campaign to vaccinate the masses is being promoted as a way to protect the community. Local fire departments are also working closely with health officials to hand out vaccines. Collier County has said that the majority of the Ave Maria University…
Most flipper knives require a bit of actual flipping to open the blade. But with the WEKnife Speedliner, a late 2024 introduction designed by Tashi Bharucha, it’s more like pulling a trigger. WEKnife sent me a Speedliner Flipper Knife with a titanium handle around the holidays. I hadn’t sought it out, but it arrived with a brief note of thanks and carried my name on the handle. I didn’t think much of reviewing it until now, a couple of months later, as it has really earned a spot in my daily rotation. While the Speedliner seemed to garner a lukewarm…
New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment…and unconstitutional gun control. How is a state, with a population of just over two million people, always the vetting ground for gun control zealots’ bright ideas? Before legislation is handed over to legislators in “un-gun friendly” states like California, Illinois, New York and Washington, it always seems like gun control groups like Michael Bloomberg backed Everytown, or Giffords use New Mexico as a beta-test to see how much “they” can get away with before ending up arguing before SCOTUS. Under the abysmal “leadership” of Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, the answer to violence committed…
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Dallas, TX — GunsAmerica, one of the longest-operating online firearms marketplaces founded in 1997, today announced its 2026 Best of SHOT Show Industry Impact Awards, recognizing products introduced at SHOT Show 2026 that are positioned to shape dealer ordering patterns and consumer purchasing interest in the year ahead. After four days on the show floor and participation in six range events, the GunsAmerica editorial team — comprised of competitive shooters, instructors, hunters, and legal professionals — evaluated hundreds of new product introductions through hands-on testing, manufacturer briefings, and extended editorial review sessions. “These selections reflect more than…
As I make my way around a hairpin left, a 30-degree slope enters my vision. Undeterred, I turn on X-mode and start to ascend. The Dunlop Grandtrek all-terrain tires momentarily slip and strain as I climb. But the 2026 Toyota BZ Woodland dutifully marches up the grade, greeting me with a stunning vista of rolling hills and avocado farms beneath me as the cobalt Pacific Ocean wafts in the distance. With 8.4 inches of ground clearance, standard all-wheel drive, and nearly 400 pound-feet of torque to play with, the bZ Woodland makes ventures like this comfortable. And, thankfully, I only…
New Mexico’s legislature is supposed to adjourn at noon on Thursday, and the next 48 hours are going to be a chaotic rush to move bills before the deadline. Gun owners and FFLs in the state got a small bit of good news early Tuesday morning, when a House committee delayed a vote on SB 17, but it’s still far too soon to declare victory. The House Judiciary committee didn’t take up the sweeping gun ban and gun dealer bill until late Monday evening, and after about an hour of discussion decided to hold off…
In the quiet countryside of Polk County, Florida, long-range steel targets ring out past 500 yards and sometimes far beyond. According to a report from Gulf Coast News, civilians are training in what some describe as “military-style” skills at facilities like Bone Valley Industries, where retired Air Force two-star Gen. Rick “RB” Mattson is now a co-owner. What used to be considered an impressive 500-yard shot, Mattson says, is no longer unusual. Modern rifles, optics, and training have expanded civilian capability dramatically (don’t we know it!). Sharing the same grounds is another company, Barrel & Hatchet, owned in part by…

2026 might prove to be the most transformative year for the suppressor in the industry’s history. From observing the 2026 SHOT Show, it became abundantly clear that manufacturers are doubling down on suppressor innovation as we approach mainstream adoption in the US. Three noteworthy trends emerged at SHOT this year: drastically reduced cost, heat management, and over-the-barrel designs. The 3D-Printed Revolution The suppressor industry witnessed an unprecedented number of new manufacturers at SHOT Show 2026, with dozens of new and established companies unveiling affordable 3D-printed suppressor lines. This surge wasn’t coincidental—it resulted from two converging factors that have fundamentally altered…
The United Kingdom has some of the most extensive gun control laws on the planet. You can own a firearm, but for most people, it’s only a theoretical possibility, not an actual reality, which is how the British elite want it. Guns for me but not for thee, and all that.But, as I’ve pointed out on numerous occasions, the truth is that the only people in the UK deprived of guns are those who represent absolutely no problem should they own guns.On the other hand, creating guns for criminals is relatively trivial, as this incident…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream under the title: No Deal With Iran! An Apocalyptic “Regime Change War” Appears To Be Imminent, And Everyone Is Bracing For The Worst It appears that an apocalyptic war is about to begin in the Middle East, and yet most people living in the Western world don’t seem alarmed by this at all. But they should be, because once the missiles start flying, the death and destruction that we will witness will deeply shock the entire globe. The nuts that are running Iran fully understand…
When the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals tossed out Ali Danial Hemani’s conviction for possessing a firearm while an “unlawful” drug user, it did so on Second Amendment grounds. In defending that decision, though, several Second Amendment groups are looking beyond the right to keep and bear arms. I covered the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association’s brief earlier today, which raises objections to Section 922(g)(3) under both the Fifth and Eighth Amendments. The Firearms Policy Coalition is also putting a non-2A argument front and center in its amicus brief; namely, that Congress has…
There was a time when Americans believed campaign promises were supposed to mean something. Adorable, right. Today, we get DLC civil rights, subscription-based freedoms, and a Department of Justice that treats the Constitution like a Terms of Service agreement nobody actually reads. Welcome to the Trump–Bondi era of gun policy, where the Second Amendment is loudly declared a “first-class right”… while quietly being shoved into a filing cabinet labeled “We’ll Circle Back.” Here’s the absurd part: We’re watching a supposedly pro–Second Amendment administration defend the National Firearms Act in court, while gun-control groups file briefs on the same side, while…
Here lately, there’s been a lot of talk about who the Second Amendment is really for. The comments from some who claim to be pro-gun about Alex Pretti being armed have been taken as evidence that none of us really think it’s for everyone, that it’s still something for straight, white men with a few tokens to provide cover or something. But it’s not, and a lot of us have been denouncing those comments quite regularly. It’s kind of frustrating, really, and especially when so many of us support groups like the Pink Pistols on…
