The genie is out of the bottle

Tue, 05/22/2018 - 07:30
And we can’t put it back in there. In the wake of another school shooting, the predictable reactions from all sides have continued. The pro-gun people have pointed at the ghoulish media coverage of the events as the cause, and the anti-gun people have blamed easy access to firearms. Meanwhile, the majority of America forgot...

Class Review: The Armed Parent/Guardian

Fri, 05/11/2018 - 11:08
In December of 2017, I had the opportunity to take Citizens Defense Research’s flagship class, The Armed Parent/Guardian, or TAP/G for short. I had been meaning to take this class for some time, so when I found out they’d be in SoFla, I decided to sign up. Full disclosure, I paid full price for the...

Carry gun rotations are a bad idea

Tue, 05/01/2018 - 08:01
I don’t spend a lot of time of gun forums these days, and even less time in “gun related” facebook groups. I realize that as a result of this, I’ve largely self-selected my circle down to people who are relatively like minded about the whole concept of EDC. This means that when I do venture...

The P is for Pistol

Tue, 11/14/2017 - 11:24
In the last few years, USPSA has added two new divisions, one of which I think is stupid and one of which I think is pretty cool. The cool one is Pistol Caliber Carbine, and the dumb one is Carry Optics; we can talk about Carry Optics later. Today we’re talking about PCC and why … Continue reading "The P is for Pistol"

A while back I started a 2,000 round review of the Gen5 Glock 17 on my YouTube channel, which as of last week is at an end. Before we dive into the guts of the review and what makes the Gen5 Glock tick, let’s discuss the scoring criteria of all our gun reviews.

My mustache is making me more powerful

Wed, 08/16/2017 - 10:50
Yes, I have recently grown a mustache. It’s pretty great, reminiscent of the glory days of cop mustaches. Somehow, it’s granted with me extraordinary powers as well. Allow me to explain. I have been testing 1911s for almost 2 years now, and for the majority of that time I’ve been using a Shaggy AIWB holster … Continue reading "My mustache is making me more powerful"

Performance by the numbers

Fri, 05/12/2017 - 17:53
I have been absent from youtube for some time, and absent from Gun Nuts for even longer. I’ll spare ya’ll the boring details, but this image is a big part of why I was gone: But anyway, enough of that. Today I wanted to talk about an interesting revelation I had while I was taking … Continue reading "Performance by the numbers"

I have two guns, one for each of you

Fri, 02/24/2017 - 13:28
In this video, I take a look at one of my favorite Hollywood tropes – firing two guns at once. But instead of just playing around, I take a hard look at whether or not it’s more effective than firing one gun with two hands on it. If you like what we’re doing, consider supporting … Continue reading "I have two guns, one for each of you"

Low light training

Thu, 02/23/2017 - 11:30
As I’ve mentioned in the past, I’m a huge believer in WML for defensive handguns, especially guns that are going to be used for home defense. In today’s video, I spend some time on the range working on manipulating the light in the dark and incorporating challenging into my training. Buy a Crimson Trace Railmaster … Continue reading "Low light training"

The Hollywood Headshot

Tue, 02/21/2017 - 15:40
Things that annoy me: in Hollywood movies and TV shows when they shoot dudes in the middle of the forehead. So I made a video explaining why.

The Gun Nuts Handgun Evaluation Protocol

Tue, 02/14/2017 - 17:59
As I wrap up a year of testing 1911s and get back to testing all manner of guns, I realized I needed a replacement for the 10-8 Performance 1911 Test. The 10-8 Performance Test is designed to test the extraction and primary function of the 1911 to ensure it’s suitable for duty. I was specifically … Continue reading "The Gun Nuts Handgun Evaluation Protocol"

Yo dawg, I know that you can’t give a lower away but here’s a sweet billet lower for $69.99. That’s stupid.

Capitalism

Mon, 02/06/2017 - 11:51
I’m never going to be one of those people who gets up on a drum and preaches that the world is going to hell in a handbasket, because as bad as things are, they could be a lot worse. That being said, I did just buy a set of plates and a plate carrier. I … Continue reading "Capitalism"
