The short answer? Yes. I strongly believe in WML for home defense guns, because sometimes you need to make sure the thing you’re about to shoot actually needs to be shot.
Winter Concealed Carry Tips
Do you live somewhere with actual cold weather? I do. So I decided to try and figure out what the most effective way to carry a gun in the winter time was. I maybe succeeded.
What I didn’t succeed at was having consistent audio levels.
Which is better for defensive shooting, IDPA or USPSA?
Well, it’s the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and I felt like beating an already dead horse just a little bit harder. But in all seriousness, I get asked this question a lot: “If I can only do one shooting sport, which one should it be?”
Hey, it’s almost Black Friday, why don’t you buy some of the best tactical pants ever?

Happy Halloween you basic SOBs
What are you doing for Halloween? Dressing up in some silly costume? That’s cool. I’m going to dispense lead treats all day long with my sweet new .22 LR Beretta.

Rock Island Armory 9mm 1911
This past week I spent some time out in Iowa doing some ammo testing for a project I have coming up. I decided to bring the Rock Island 1911 out to test their 9mm offerings, and as usual I was completely satisfied with its performance. The video is mostly me just messing around and wasting ammo, but it’s neat to see how flat the gun runs with 147gr match ammo.
As of today, the Rock Island has 3040 rounds on it…still with zero failures of any type. This gun is absolutely a triumph, and one of my favorite guns of all time.
