The modern generation of body armor first began as hot, bulky wraparound Kevlar vests that protected against pistol rounds. But thanks to advances in materials sciences (and a healthy dose of government investment from two decades of continuous war) these ubiquitous police armor options have largely been supplemented or outright replaced by the leaner, more comfortable plate carrier. First popularized by special operators, plate carriers have since proliferated across American society — from SWAT officers to street cops, to tactical fitness folks (think CrossFit or the Tactical Games). And you too can capitalize on their benefits. A plate carrier not…

The Brief: The Department of Justice filed a federal lawsuit against a local county for enacting ordinances that restrict concealed carry within 100 yards of public venues. Federal prosecutors argue these buffer zones violate Supreme Court precedent and lack the historical justification required for declaring specific locations sensitive under constitutional standards. The lawsuit asserts that local governments cannot create expansive restricted areas that inadvertently penalize lawful permit holders. This legal action aims to provide consistent carry rights and prevent a patchwork of municipal rules. Analysts expect the case to influence similar judicial reviews of carry restrictions across the country. ROCKVILLE,…

Read almost any emergency checklist and pay attention to the person it was apparently written for.That person can carry cases of water up the stairs, walk several miles without help, sleep on a gym floor, eat whatever food is handed to him and go several days without medication. He can hear emergency instructions, understand them immediately, load his own vehicle and evacuate without arguing, panicking or becoming confused. If the power goes out, he grabs a flashlight. If the building needs to be evacuated, he walks down the stairs.That person probably exists somewhere. He just does not represent most American…

Nineteen years in. Employee of the quarter twice. “Our most valuable asset,” they said it at the all-hands on Wednesday and everybody clapped.Thursday he’s walking to his truck at 9:15 in the morning with a cardboard box, and his badge stopped working while he was still in the room. Nobody in that building lost a minute of sleep over it. By Friday his whole career was a line item on slide 14 of a deck about AI-enabled efficiency, and the guy who made that slide got a bonus.That’s the disaster. Not the volcano, not the EMP, not some rifle-and-rucksack fantasy…
The Hi Power, known generically as P-35 because it was introduced in 1935, is a modern classic. Conceived by the incomparable John Moses Browning and finalized into the form we know it by his protégé Dieudonne Saive after Browning’s death, the P-35 was adopted by many nations, and it was manufactured in multiple countries — sometimes with a license, and sometimes not. The author, Massad Ayoob, shot a maximum score of 300 out of 300 with this borrowed Springfield Armory SA-35 during a training class demonstration.
