Most of the hype these days — and for many years now — centers around new semi-automatic pistols. Revolvers don’t get the attention that they used to, nor are there as many new products for wheelgunners. Smith & Wesson aims to change that with their latest release, the Bodyguard 38 2.0 revolver. But before we delve deeper, let’s discuss a few common discussion points about the pros and cons of revolvers versus semi-autos for self-defense. The first and most important benefit commonly cited is the simplicity and reliability of revolvers. Indeed, the manual of arms for a double-action-only revolver like…

The Brief: A village employee and a concealed carry permit holder intervened during a dog attack on a juvenile in Morton, Illinois. When one animal charged the citizen, he used a firearm to stop the threat. Emergency responders treated the injured child while animal control officials secured the remaining dog.

MORTON, IL — A routine call regarding…
In today’s article, Joe Kurtenbach reviews the Fiocchi Hyperformance SBR Enhanced ammunition. The tested load, the .223 Rem. 77-gr. hollow-point boat tail (HPBT), was provided by the company for this review. “It’s about the most accurate AR ammo I’ve ever tested,” I said to Matt Gann, manager of 340 Defense near Charles Town, West Virginia, as I walked toward the office from the range. I’d just concluded performance and gel penetration testing on Fiocchi’s Hyperformance SBR (short-barreled rifle) Enhanced 77-gr. hollow-point boat tail (HPBT) .223 Rem. ammunition and he’d just asked how the ammunition test had gone. Fiocchi’s Hyperformance SBR…
Pull up almost any 20- or 30-year emergency food list and you will see the same collection of staples: wheat, white rice, corn, sugar, dried beans, pasta, rolled oats, potato flakes, powdered milk and dehydrated vegetables. Properly packaged and stored under the right conditions, some of these foods can remain usable for decades. That part is not necessarily wrong.What almost nobody points out is that practically everything on those lists is extremely low in fat.That is the real reason these foods last so long. They are not magical survival foods that somehow resist time. They are mostly dry carbohydrates with…
“Practically every one of our dead was found with his rifle torn down next to him where he had been trying to fix it.” — Excerpt from a letter written by Marine in 1966 to his family after a firefight in Vietnam. A U.S. serviceman in Vietnam with an early M16. There were many stories of soldiers and Marines having problems with the earliest models of this rifle in the field. Was it the design’s fault? Parts of this Marine’s letter was read by Rep. James J. Howard (D-N.J.) to the House. At first, there were reports circulating in the…

By Dave Merrill and David Lane If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it’s probably a duck. But what happens when it walks like a Glock, talks like a 1911, and shoots like a CZ SP-01? Well, you’ve encountered the Wilson Combat Bulwark. The Bulwark is a Doctor Moreau monster-mash of John Browning and Gaston Glock, done in a different way. This pistol intrigued us so much, a pair of us tackled it for this review: CONCEALMENT Editor Dave Merrill and RECOILweb Editor David Lane. We didn’t have a gun like this on our 2026 bingo…
What are the odds that you’ll ever need to use a gun for self-defense? Here we break down the data.A few months ago, John Correia of Active Self Protection was confronted by a burglar in his own home. The man fled, no shot was fired, and Correia walked away thinking about a question many armed citizens eventually ask. Realistically, what are the odds I will ever need my gun? In a video on his channel, he ran the numbers from two major firearms surveys and arrived at a startlingly large lifetime probability. This article borrows his framework and pushes further…

Before we get into what happened in Boulder City, let’s name the thing correctly. ~MAGA SOCIALISM~The federal government took land supposedly owned by the American public, shut that same public out of the decision, and handed the property to a private investment fund out of Texas. Nevada then sweetens the deal with tax abatements for the data center industry, while the local utility prepares to spend billions building new gas turbines to keep the servers running. The hedge fund gets the asset, the technology companies get the electricity, and everyone else gets stuck paying higher utility bills while praying the…
As of July 17, 2026, the crowdsourced DeFlock map had located 95,923 Flock Safety cameras in the United States. That’s about 83% of every automated license plate reader volunteers have managed to find.Volunteers. That’s who’s counting. There’s no honest national inventory, plenty of departments won’t say where their cameras are, and the ones bolted to shopping centers and apartment complexes are harder to spot than the ones on utility poles.Flock’s own number is more than 20 billion vehicle scans a month across more than 5,000 communities. Not 20 billion scans of wanted felons. Twenty billion scans of whoever drove past.Your…
