In the early days of the automotive industry, automakers used concept cars to generate attention. These were the days before internet marketing, so companies had to take a more hands-on approach with gauging public opinion. This was a good way for carmakers to show what they could do and get ahead of the competition. Today, concept cars are still used to showcase what designers and engineers can accomplish when they put their minds to it. These cars contrast the practical-minded commonplace and offer a…
My first scope was not a Leupold. A Leupold was something to aspire to. At $59.50 a 4x Leupold cost 10 bucks more than a K4, and 20 more than the scope I bought. Which set me back a little more than my first deer rifle. My first Leupold has faded in memory. Perhaps a 2-7x my friend Bob recommended, it may have arrived with a rifle swap. The 2-7x on Bob’s Featherweight Model 70 chambered for the .270 Win cartridge had accounted for many bucks, including a long-tined mule deer that had hunkered most of October in a cut…

The AI Overlords’ Chilling Agenda: Viewing Humanity as a Plague to Be Eradicated – And How to Survive ItIn a world where artificial intelligence is hailed as the next great leap forward, a darker, and quite frankly, predictable narrative emerges from the mouths of its architects. OpenAI’s Sam Altman recently sparked outrage by equating the energy costs of training AI models to the “20 years of life and all the food you eat” needed to “train” a human, even factoring in the evolutionary toll of “hundred billion people” who avoided predators and built civilization.This isn’t just tone-deaf tech jargon—it’s a…
I love the saying, “have your cake, and eat it too”. What if you had the capability and power of a hunting cartridge like the .308 for both eyes open close quarters shooting could very quickly switch to a LPVO (Low Power Variable Optic) with 7X magnification and hit out to 500 yards easily? Would that have your interest? The M1A is a versatile rifle suitable for survival, hunting and self-defense. Here, the author shoots the M1A Scout Squad rifle with a variable power scope. [Catch Robert Sadowski’s explanation on the meaning of LPVO.] Before we get to that, just…
