Positional shooting is typically associated with competition and tactical shooting. In fact, in my experience most hunters don’t think much about positional shooting or practice it regularly. Many hunters do little more than pull their rifle out of the safe and shoot five to 10 rounds from a bench or the prone position at 100 yards to check zero before ...

After hearing gunfire while visiting a neighbor, the homeowner returned to find an armed suspect inside his residence.

I recently heard someone say that handguns have no place in military combat. History shows us otherwise. For the tanker, artilleryman, radio operator or medic whose hands are too busy at designated tasks to hold a rifle, the pistol makes enormous sense. Behind the lines when unpleasant surprises come, the handgun is just as much an emergency rescue tool as ...
The Brief: Prosecutors in Butts County, Georgia, dismissed murder charges against Aaron White following a fatal shooting on his wedding night in 2024.

Let’s just get this out of the way up front. I live in California. I remember it was about 20 years ago when I first had the opportunity to fire an AR-pattern rifle. I was then celebrating my 21st birthday in sunny Las Vegas, and decided to splurge one of the many “full auto” experiences the town had to offer. ...

Pushing a full-sized 7.62x51mm/.308 Win. round in a chassis that lends itself to maneuverability and easy portage, the M1A Tanker also captures some of that classic inimitable Parkerized steel and stained walnut of a bygone era. The Springfield Armory M1A Tanker ...
The idealized concept immediately took root and blossomed: the Royal Air Force saved Britain from invasion in 1940. The conventional wisdom holds that Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s legendary “few” handed Nazi Germany its first defeat in World War II and paved the road to eventual victory. But was it true? In this poster, a German bomber is shot down by ...
Right now, with remote work baked into so many jobs, a lot of guys fed up with the grind back home are ditching the city life for something freer. We’re talking real relocation, not just vacations—heading overseas to build a life that’s self-reliant, low on red tape, and high on personal control.

Bugging out can mean many things to different people; but in general, when we talk about bugging out we are talking about having to make a quick getaway during times of crisis. The reasons for having to make this getaway can be anything from manmade or natural disaster that causes you to leave your immediate area to long-term emergency situations ...

The Trump administration has accelerated measures that turn personal ...
