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.

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,…

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…

Like many hobbies, once you start shooting, you quickly begin acquiring all kinds of accessories and gear. We love it, but when you want to go to the range, you need a way to tote your stuff back and forth. Sure, you don’t need to bring all your stuff, but there’s plenty that you do want to take, like ammo, eye and ear protection, and, of course, your actual firearms. Then there are other nice-to-have but nonessential items, like brass catchers, spare magazines, shot timers, and more. That’s where a good range bag comes in. Yeah, you could use just…

Because a single Amazon Web Services region in Oregon coughed.AWS didn’t officially admit anything until 4:40 a.m. Pacific, which is 7:40 Eastern, a full hour after Downdetector lit up.
