I get that Australians aren’t big fans of the right to keep and bear arms. Hell, it’s bad enough there that it barely even qualifies as a privilege, especially as things have gone since the Bondi Beach terrorist attack. But that’s a thing for private citizens. No one who has any sense thinks the military should be disarmed, too. Oh, maybe not let them carry guns in various places, but they know that fighting wars needs guns, and there’s always someone most people think is worth killing, even if its their fellow countrymen and women.Despite…
“It’s a group mindset out here,” can be heard from the passenger side of a dusty off-highway vehicle roaring down a desert trail. Among the towering Saguaro cacti, leathery-leafed Jojoba shrubs, and pungent creosote bushes, two off-highway vehicle (OHV) enthusiasts talk shop in a side-by-side on a straightaway section of Arizona’s Boulders OHV Trail. Their goal? Highlighting the importance of courteous, safe, and informed off-highway driving … and having a little fun exploring Arizona in the process. Nick Olson takes his Chupacabra Off Road OHV on the trail; (photo/AZGFD) Meet the driver: off-highway expert, Nick Olson, who has coupled his…
The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) says that the Epstein files may contain “crimes against humanity.” We would say that it is almost a certainty that those files contain these violations. The UNHRC released a statement in response to the millions of files released by the United States ruling class related to criminal investigations into the late financier, Jeffrey Epstein. The UNHRC also demanded that all perpetrators be prosecuted no matter The Obama Administration’s Prostitution Scandal And The Ruemmler-Epstein Connection The Clintons Will Testify In Epstein Probe The Epstein files reveal instances of “sexual slavery, reproductive violence, enforced disappearance,…
Supertramp has established itself as a world-class truck camper company, with build standards far beyond the typical recreational vehicle (RV). Its latest offering is a chassis-mounted truck camper designed to mate with a 1-ton Ford SuperDuty truck. The Supertramp Paragon bridges the gap between the company’s slide-in truck campers and its F-550-based expedition camper. It’s also an alternative to adventure vans at a similar price point. The Paragon is not a half-million-dollar Supertramp Megatron or a million-dollar EarthRoamer. It is a much smaller expedition-style overland camper, which costs a fraction of the price. Supertramp Paragon Basics $189K starting price for…
The ATF isn’t our friend. It could be, but the truth is that there have been too many years when the bureau sought to spend more time monitoring what people like you and me were doing than actually going after armed criminals and actual gun traffickers. In fairness, going after those guys is hard, while we’re easier targets. Heaven forbid someone employed by the federal government has to actually work hard, with the notable exception of the junior enlisted in the military.What we all would like to see is someone running the ATF who isn’t…

Mikaela Shiffrin just showed the whole world why she’s still considered one of the best skiers alive. The 30-year-old athlete won a gold medal in the women’s slalom on Wednesday morning, dominating the event with a 1.5-second lead over her competitors. It was Shiffrin’s last event in the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympics, and her final chance to take home gold after a disappointing performance in the 2022 Beijing Olympics. This is Shiffrin’s third gold medal as a U.S. Winter Olympian. That puts her in the same category as snowboarder Shaun White and bobsledder Kaillie Humphries. But it’s actually her…
Tuesday was “crossover day” at the Virginia state capitol, which means any bill that didn’t pass out of its chamber of origin and cross over to the other side of the statehouse is officially dead for the session. As we previously reported, the “permit to purchase” measure that was being pushed by anti-gun Democrats is no longer a threat, though SB 643 is still a blatant attack on the 2A rights of young adults by prohibiting adults under-21 from purchasing handguns and “assault firearms”. The proposed 11% excise tax on firearms and ammunition as well…

Danish military veteran Martin Tamm Andersen nearly lost his life fighting alongside American troops in Afghanistan more than 15 years ago. Andersen, a platoon commander, was leading his unit along with a group of U.S. Marines through the southern part of the country following an attack by the Taliban.Nothing seemed out of the ordinary as Andersen’s vehicle maneuvered to the back of the column. Then, in a flash, all he could see was sand. Andersen’s body was thrust into the air. After he hit the ground, shaken, he felt for both his arms and legs to make certain they were still…

Before the Battle of White Horse Hill, South Korean soldiers were seen as a hollow force, known for running in the face of the enemy. American commanders called them “bug-out” units. Entire ROK divisions seemed to collapse when Chinese forces attacked. General James Van Fleet pulled them off the line and rebuilt them from scratch.In October 1952, one of those rebuilt divisions faced three Chinese divisions on a 395-meter hill northwest of Cheorwon. The ROK 9th Infantry Division did not run. They held against 28 separate assaults over ten days of continuous fighting. The hill changed hands 24 times. When…

I wrapped up Show 2026 at the Savage booth with a closer look at the Savage AC30 BOB suppressor. AC30 BOB stands for “Back Over Barrel,” and the name describes exactly how this suppressor approaches length reduction for suppressed hunting rifles. Back-Over-Barrel Design Explained The Savage AC30 BOB uses an over-barrel design to minimize added length. While the suppressor measures 8 inches overall, it only adds 4 inches to the rifle. Roughly half of the suppressor extends rearward over the barrel instead of forward past the muzzle. This layout targets shorter barrel applications where overall length matters. The threaded section…
