Via: DTI “Shooting is a science, but ‘fighting for your life’ is an Art. The difference is identical to that between limit and no-limit poker. When competing, you’re shooting at an inert target. When fighting, your target is alive and is sincerely trying to kill you, by whatever means he can! Limit poker,…

When Democrats are in Charge
Via: DTI When leftist agendas and careers trump public safety Recent fires in Lahaina on the Hawaiian Island of Maui painfully illustrate the practical effect of liberal/Communist philosophy, currently embraced by Democrats. The dear religion of environmentalism/collectivism absolutely require that: 1) Plant growth can never be “disturbed.” Plants must grow as they will…
None Dare!
Via John Farnam at DTI None dare call it treason! None dare call them Communists! Visibly armed ANTIFA thugs took over an entire section of the City of Seattle today, including a police precinct station. The “response” of the Democrat mayor and police chief was that both bent-over and dropped their pants! Of course, no…
Cannon Fodder!
I am fed up with Traitors within our Government who have routinely put Military and Civilian lives at risk with asinine decisions like this. Don’t think for a second we, the PEOPLE, will forget your deeds and who you are. The Founding Fathers were very clear on what should happen to traitors when the time…
Far Right?
Via John Farnam at DTI Far Right? A University of Connecticut senior who is accused of murdering two men (with a gun), injuring another, and kidnaping a woman, during two separate attacks last Sunday (then fleeing in a stolen car), is a well-known far-left ideologue who espouses revocation of our Second Amendment. He wrote in…
A Common Epitaph
Via John Farnam “Who are without swords can still die upon them!” From “Lord of the Rings” In reporting yesterday’s mall shooting in AZ, local media reiterated this all-to-common epitaph: “When police arrived at the mall, the scene was no longer active” Additional details are still emerging, but the above headline is the point of…
What Is It For?
Another sage quip from John Farnam regarding keeping your fighting gun simple. This is a prime example of Competition “race” gun mentality bleeding over into the Practical Carry arena. “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” Coco Chanel Peacetime/Wartime “Forward” slide serrations (forward of the ejection port)…
Know Your Weapons: Military Rifle Calibers & Three Confusions
Military Rifle Calibers & Three Confusions! Another short and sweet firearms history lesson by Mr. John Farnam, USMC.
Covid-19 doesn’t worry Islamic terrorists!
Terrorists aren’t concerned! Yesterday, as dutifully masked-and-gloved French citizens in Romans-sur-lsere cautiously ventured out of their homes to buy groceries, I suspect their last concern was being randomly attacked and stabbed to death by a knife-wielding Islamic terrorist, illegally in their country! Yet, Saturday morning that is exactly what happened! An AA-shouting “Sudanese refugee” (AKA:…
Know Your Weapons: The Johnson Rifle
31 Mar 20 Melvin Johnson’s Rifle Sergie Simonov’s SKS Rifle, first adopted by the Soviets in 1945 (replacing Fedor Tokarev’s short-lived SVT), saw service only until 1952, after which it was superceded by Mikhail Kalashnikov’s AK. However, the SKS continued to see second-tier service in the USSR, and continuing first-tier service in the PRC (China),…
