I sat down with Kent Brown, President of CCW Safe, on the CCW Safe Podcast to talk through something I do almost every week: flying with firearms. You can watch the full conversation above. Here is a quick look at what we covered and why it matters. I split my time between Nevada and Louisiana, [...
The 1911 occupies a curious position in the modern concealed carry landscape. It is widely respected and often admired, yet only sometimes considered a practical choice for everyday carry.

President Donald Trump has endorsed Ken Paxton in the Texas U.S. Senate runoff against John Cornyn, turning the race into a direct test for Texas gun owners. Cornyn’s record on the Biden-backed gun-control bill and James Talarico’s “commonsense gun safety” platform make this race impossib...
Miguel A. Faria Jr.’s The Roman Republic is not light reading, but it is essential reading for Americans who understand that liberty, civic duty, and historical memory are not optional. Ancient Rome’s fall from republican government offers a warning modern America would be foolish to ignore.

Admittedly, the Echelon had a steep hill to climb. At its launch in mid-2023, the then-new Echelon faced a packed market of duty-style, polymer-framed, striker-fired 9mm pistols. To say there was a plethora of choices would be a remarkable understatement. As a result, the Echelon had to bring som...
When I reviewed the Rossi R95 .45-70 Triple Black Pistol , I called it basically unusable, as is, for the average shooter. I meant it. But the platform was too good to leave alone. I saw the potential. So I filed a Form 1, waited it out, and SBR'd it.
Everyone “knows” this gun, but it probably still needs a proper introduction. The CZ Shadow 2 is an all-steel, high-capacity SA/DA pistol engineered for peak performance in dynamic shooting sports, and the top choice of many elite competitors at the world's most prestigious IPSC ...
