Ballot measures: the new battle for gun rights
The next battle for gun rights won’t be fought in Congress or even in your state’s legislative body. No, the new fight is going to happen right at the ballot box, and if that doesn’t scare you it should. We’re talking about ballot measures. Ballot measures are a form of direct democracy, while they come...
Gun industry pet peeves
You know what really grinds my gears? Pretty much everything in this video.
Beretta APX Upgrades
I have been shooting the Beretta APX a lot, and I’ve really come to like it. However, there are definitely some upgrades that you can make to the gun! Make sure to pick up a good holster for yours!
PHLster Floodlight Review
My boys at PHLster have a new holster out called The Floodlight and it’s awesome. It’s designed to fit any gun that has an x300 attached to it, which means you can finally carry your weird hipster guns…like the Beretta M9A3 I have in mine. Get your Floodlight today!
Chamber empty carry is dangerous
Can someone please explain why anyone would advocate for chamber empty carry? And don’t say “because the Israelis do it,” the reasons they do it are historical and deeply ingrained in their training dogma now, plus their Tier One units carry with a round in the chamber. The video is 20 minutes of me explaining … Continue reading "Chamber empty carry is dangerous"
The FAST Drill: Beretta 92
I recently completed one of the toughest shooting challenges out there: winning a FAST Coin. To win a FAST Coin you have to shoot the FAST Test twice under 5.00 seconds in a class hosted by Ernest Langdon. There’s a long history with me and the FAST, so to get it finally accomplished feels amazing. … Continue reading "The FAST Drill: Beretta 92"
Real world carry guns: The Beretta Cheetah
Okay look, I know it’s not super tactical or anything, but I love my Beretta 84 (Cheetah) so hard. It’s just so much fun to shoot, and to be honest a 13 shot .380 isn’t anything to sneeze at. It’s a shame it’s slightly too big for IDPA BUG division. The number one question I … Continue reading "Real world carry guns: The Beretta Cheetah"

Pocket pistols for self defense?
With the proliferation of small belt guns like the Glock 43, M&P Shield, etc do sub-caliber pocket pistols still make sense for concealed carry? Check out the video for my thoughts. Want to carry something for self defense but aren’t sure about a gun? No problem. I recommend and use Fox Labs 5.3 pepper spray … Continue reading "Pocket pistols for self defense?"
You don’t need a gun for self-defense
One of my biggest pet peeves is whenever someone says they’re concerned about their personal security, the first response is “oh you should get a gun.” You know what? Maybe you shouldn’t. What you should do is a comprehensive assessment of the risks you may face, and the force you’re willing to use to defend … Continue reading "You don’t need a gun for self-defense"
Match video: Homestead September USPSA
Shooting USPSA for the first time in over a year, and man is it ever a perishable skill. My pure shooting skills really haven’t dropped off that much, but my ability to shoot stages according to the plan and power through mistakes have gotten a lot worse. I attribute a lot of the maintenance on … Continue reading "Match video: Homestead September USPSA"
Understanding Handgun Wound Ballistics
There are a lot of misconceptions about how handguns “stop” people out there on the internet. I wanted to do a video where I try to bust some of the myths from those youtube “experts.”
Beretta APX Centurion on the IDPA 5×5 Classifier
I had the chance the other day to take the Beretta APX Centurion out and shoot the IDPA 5×5 classifier. It’s a good course of fire to test your skills and see where you’re rank in IDPA! The timer I’m using is a CED Pocket Pro.
5 Practical Self Defense Tips
As my youtube audience grows I wanted to do a video talking about some self-defense advice that anyone could follow, regardless of whether or not you carry a gun.
Your failure to de-escalate a situation is not a good reason to draw your gun
I am a frequent browser on Imgur, because I like funny memes and laughing at things. Every now and then, there will be some firearms or self-defense related content, which I usually immediately skip over because it’s terrible. Usually whatever it is comes from someone with the same depth of knowledge and training as a...
2018 Steel Challenge Results
The 2018 Steel Challenge World Championship is officially in the books, and it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone that a cast of familiar faces has once again dominated the leaderboard. The Top 3 in Open are all previous champions, finishing 1st-3rd in this order: KC Eusebio, BJ Norris, Max Michel. For the Limited...
First look at the new Beretta APX Centurion and Compact
Today we have a short video taking an brief look at the new offerings from Beretta, the APX RDO, the APX Centurion, and the APX Compact. I’m hoping to spend a lot of trigger time with these guns!
New from Beretta: the APX Centurion
Beretta launched their entry in the striker fired market, the APX, a couple of years ago. Originally intended as Beretta’s entry into the Modular Handgun System competition, the APX was initially only offered as a full size pistol. New for 2018, Beretta has brought out two new sizes for the APX: the Centurion and the...
