    What’s In Your Pocket? Keep Your EDC Realistic

    I carry way too much in my pockets. I wear carpenter jeans for the extra pockets, in fact. They weigh a ton with all my pocket junk. I suppose it’s a carryover from my previous life as an airplane mechanic and getting used to having tools and hardware filling my pockets all the time. So yes...

    I love Cajun jokes, having lived among ‘em a little while.

    What is Wrong with 5.56 AKs?

    A friend had a 5.56 AK of some variety and it was awful. It had some goofy magwell for AR mags that was a mess. The magazines fit so tight it sometimes took two of us to get them out. Malfunctions no matter what was used. I know I shouldn’t, but I think of that one when I see any 5.56 AK...

    I Love REVOLVERS

    I spent the winter carrying a S&W 21-4 .44 Spl as my primary, and it felt good.

    Unsung Heroes: U.S. Navy Corpsmen

    Every time I see the word “Corpsman” my loathing for a certain former president grows a little more.

    Gun Games are not STREET training

    Fine, I’ll jump in. I will agree with the statement that Simunitions training is great. However… I’m pretty much a training junkie. I will take any class I can get to and afford. Having said that, my last Simunitions class was at least eight years ago. It was also my only Simunitions...

    So Here’s An Article That Claims FEAR Drives Gun Buying

    I suppose there is some truth to the basic premise. I buy some guns out of fear. For starters: Fear of bad people. Fear of the government. Fear of going hungry. Fear of missing out on a nice old gun. Fear of not having something to leave my kids. Most importantly, fear of being outshot by my...

    What are you doing right now??

    Always a flood of people wanting to eliminate Monaco from the schedule due to it being a parade with no passing. I say if they are only watching the race, they are missing out on something special. All three practice sessions plus qualifying are the most exciting of the year. That’s 4/5s of...

    Thoughts on 25 acp???

    Being small caliber doesn’t make it the smallest priced. A quick look at Gunbroker auctions ending within the next few hours shows that a 9mm pistol can be had for the price of a .25 pistol. Even Jeff Cooper will tell you to get the 9mm.

    Thoughts on 25 acp???

    So now the cost of a .25 gun relative to others has come into it? I guess I missed that new twist. But that’s how it goes with the few supporters of such guns. The “ifs” keep appearing. It’s great! If you can’t carry anything else… And if you compare it to a .22… And if you can’t afford...

    Thoughts on 25 acp???

    When someone disparages Jeff Cooper, I’m gonna have to say something. The .25 ACP sucks for defensive use. Comparing it to the .22 Rimfire only proves the point. The standard arguments for it say the same thing. Well, it beats not having a gun, is better than a sharp stick, etc. Here...

    Ronin 1911 38 super conversion

    *Jerks awake* Did I hear 38 Super? I love that round. It should be more popular, but too many people say “I’d like to try one someday” and never do. If that describes anyone reading this: Go ahead. Do it.

    I did have to put the belt back on once. Annoying kid.

    What are you doing right now??

    What am I doing? I’m glad you asked. I’m drinking a margarita and petting my dog while our kid mows our grass.

    Smaller Guns for Defense?

    Is that enough? It’s big enough. It’s bigger than a Sig P365.

    Smaller Guns for Defense?

    I wouldn’t point to the .22’s use as an assassination weapon for an example of its effectiveness. Mossad walking up behind a guy at a urinal and popping him in the ear isn’t the average defensive shooting where you need a stop right now.
