The internet is absolutely lousy with stories of bad gun store clerks. I’m sure you’ve heard the tropes before: the owner who’s too busy chatting with his buddies to make a sale, the counter commando who denigrates every brand but one, and the fella that wants to get $2,000 for a clapped-out, rusty surplus rifle (often one that’s hung on the wall for the better part of a decade) because “I know what I got.” Likely you have a story of your own! The author says you should always look for a deal, but don’t shortchange yourself. Instead, buy the…

Some 650 to 950 rounds per minute. That is the exact mathematical formula required to turn an enemy formation’s fighting spirit into a desperate desire to simply survive. The United States military has spent decades crafting and perfecting this formula and has ensured its fighting men and women are well versed in its many uses and applications.

Many hunters and recreational shooters (two groups that spend a ton of time outdoors) have successfully used functional, camping-related modifications to turn their personal vehicles into mobile base camps. What started out as simply sleeping in your truck has turned into “overlanding,” an entire industry centered on self-reliant adventures in kitted-out rigs. However, much like the well-meaning firearm enthusiasts who head straight for the fancy bolt-ons without first doping in their iron sights, so too do countless aspiring overlanders begin by adding hundreds of pounds of furniture to their trucks or SUVs without ever addressing the performance ramifications — wasting…

The Brief: In June 2026, a Clovis, New Mexico resident fatally shot Abel Abeyta after Abeyta drove an SUV into their home late at night. Responding officers found significant structural damage and the driver with multiple gunshot wounds. Abeyta later died at a specialized trauma center from his injuries. The District Attorney declined to file criminal charges, concluding the shooting was a lawful act of self-defense. Surveillance footage confirmed the vehicular breach, and New Mexico law requires the state to disprove self-defense claims. Prosecutors determined they could not overcome this legal burden at trial. CLOVIS, NM — A late-night vehicular…
The first thing that stood out when I got the KAER safe into position wasn’t any single feature — it was the balance of it. I like it. It’s not too heavy nor too big.

You pour a lot of time into choosing the right gun safe, and then there’s the preliminary process of securing it to the floor. It’s something you can overlook at first, but your safe is a lot more than just metal and screws. It is…

Tucked away in the southernmost corner of West Virginia is a seemingly small operation. It has no flashing lights, no neon, no massive ego stroking edifice that blares music and smells like gallons of cologne leaving you with a screaming headache like leaving the mall in the ’90s or the hangover after the first night at SHOT. Its owners are humble, down to earth, and in the truest sense partners who created a high impact operation built upon competence, vision, and a strong work ethic. This is JMac Customs, the brainchild of Justin and Ash McMillion. This story does not…

For years the official line has been the same: the grid is resilient, the lights will stay on, and the government has a plan.Then you go read what the government actually wrote when it thought nobody outside the Beltway was paying attention. According to Google AI, the government has never issued a warning… BULLSHIT!In December 2018, the President’s National Infrastructure Advisory Council — a body that reports through the Department of Homeland Security — published a 94-page study called Surviving a Catastrophic Power Outage. It wasn’t a blog post. It wasn’t a prepper podcast. It was DHS-adjacent, White House-tasked, and…
