Editor’s Note: For this Check-Mate UHC 9mm magazine review, the author received samples for testing from the company. The handgun used was a 1911 DS Prodigy that was loaned to the author by Springfield Armory.The 1911 is clearly a solid design — it would have to be to still be kicking here more than a century after its introduction. However, for those who want a more “modern” version of the classic — and with increased capacity — the “2011” is an interesting option. This Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy 3.5″ AOS was the perfect platform for testing the Check-Mate UHC…

Pictures by Ali Crimson For the younger readers who didn’t grow up during one of the greatest decades, Aliens, directed by James Cameron, was released in 1986. It was a direct sequel to Ridley Scott’s Alien (1979). Whereas Alien was more of a horror film set on a starship, Aliens was an action movie. Intended by Cameron to be an allegory for the Vietnam War, Aliens’ story included the Colonial Marines, who are heavily armed with advanced weaponry. Despite their firepower advantages, the Colonial Marines struggle and lose in combat against the titular aliens due to poor leadership, corporate subterfuge,…
The countries the world counts on to cover a fuel shortage just stopped selling. On Thursday, China’s refiners halted exports of gasoline, diesel and jet fuel to everywhere except Hong Kong and Macau, and Beijing gave no date for when they can start again. PetroChina, the country’s biggest state oil company, had already cancelled most of the cargoes it planned to ship in October. The day before, Russia extended its ban on diesel exports through October 31.That leaves almost nobody with spare fuel to sell. The Iran war has choked off most traffic through the Strait of Hormuz since late…

Photos by Sight Picture Media STAFF NOTE: We recently interviewed John Hearne in-person on the RECOILtv podcast. John gave us his perspectives on crime statistics, criminal mindset, and what personality types make the most violent actors. The last decade has seen a veritable explosion of firearms and tactical instructors. While these skills are no doubt vital to possessing a well-rounded survival repertoire, the underlying historical and psycho-emotional factors of interpersonal violence are rarely discussed — let alone trained — by most of our favorite instructors. These issues are far less entertaining to talk about, and require far more effort to…

Editor’s Note: In today’s article, Ramon Ramirez wades into the striker-fired vs. hammer-fired pistol debate. In the article, he uses two pistols to demonstrate the different systems: the Springfield Armory Echelon and the Springfield Armory 1911 DS Prodigy. Both guns were provided on loan to the author for use in this article.A different firearm crosses my bench just about every month. Some I keep around for a while, most go back, and a few teach me something I didn’t expect — usually about my own hands more than the gun. After enough of them, you stop asking which pistol is…
