As mentioned previously, I will be co-teaching an AR-15 course in Utah over Memorial Day Weekend. It will be held on Saturday and Sunday, May 25/26. Here's some info for those who may be interested in the course: It'd be best to fly in to Salt Lake City on Friday evening, we should be able to pick everyone up from the airport. The range location is about 15 miles north of Tremonton, Utah. It's pretty remote and the whole range is approximately 55,000 acres. This will let us do a… Read More

Next month - over Memorial Day Weekend, May 25/26 - I will be teaching a class which will largely relate to the AR-15 platform. I've been thinking about doing this for a while, and a fantastic opportunity has presented itself. Sniper Country in northern Utah offers a phenomenal environment for shooting - with a known-distance range out to 1800 yards - as well as a lodge which students may stay in as well as use for classroom portions. The course has been designed to fill gaps left by other training… Read More

I like seeing the whole picture when I try to make up my mind about something. When evaluating conduct between citizens and LE, it's helpful to see video of the entire event. In the case of the Temple PD and that Army E-8, we don't have the whole event on video. Just what appears to be a clash of egos. I instinctively dislike fat and/or disheveled cops (you may call me prejudiced, but any uniform should be worn with pride, not slovenliness). Furthermore, I don't like an attitude among some… Read More

Anti-gun folks like to say that companies in the gun industry are gleefully profiting hand over fist every time there's some sort of panic, but that's not very accurate. Some companies do well - if they can keep a regular supply of desirable products in stock - and others do not do well at all, especially small local gun stores. If a company sells their entire inventory of desirable items in a few days, and is unable to restock within 3 or 6 months, they will soon face financial ruin.… Read More

With all the hubbub regarding "gun control" lately, there has been an abundance of people discussing firearms, many of whom really aren't familiar with them. This leads to their inevitable use of "clips" or even "magazine clips" when the word "magazine" would be more appropriate. This leads to another inevitable occurrence - a "gun person" correcting them on nomenclature. Don't get me wrong, using the right nomenclature and understanding the facts are important. Otherwise you end up with people like this (and frankly, this Congresswoman's ignorance of the topic should… Read More

So dumb, in fact, that I made a video explaining why.

Thanks to my friend Kino of Dark Mountain Research, I spent some time on-air with Rusty Humphries, discussing firearms legislation. Here's the audio if you'd like to listen to it.

I explain why in this video. Mental heavy lifting done by my friend Zach in this article.

Moveon.org released a video attacking the NRA last month. While I don't like certain aspects of NRA marketing, I decided to make a video pushing back against some of their more egregious lies. Here it is, with citations following the video. Citations: - Moveon.org video "Revealed: The Truth About The NRA" - Eddie Eagle/Journal of Emergency Nursing - NRA Foundation Donates 5.5M to local organizations in 2010 - MidwayUSA Brand Products - MidwayUSA Round Up Contributions Pass 1 Million Dollars in 2012 - NRA Board Members - Tiahrt Amendment Supported… Read More

I wrote an article on why the stories of "1.6 billion rounds" being bought by DHS a) aren't true and b) shouldn't worry you.
