A few months ago I wrote about setting up your revolver EDC. That led to some questions about selecting a revolver for conceal carry. For several years now I’ve relied on a handful of revolvers to protect myself, carrying them both along my waistband, and in alternative locations such as on the ankle or in…
Earlier this year I spent a few days at home with a fever, cough, and general yuckiness. After a day of playing video games, it was time to change things up and tackle some of the unread books on my shelf. Like most of us, I buy more than I actually complete, so m. The…
Baby wearing is a magical tool for parents. It allows you to be completely hands free while keeping your baby snuggly and close.

Back in 2022 veteran writer Sean B. had the opportunity to give us a long-term evaluation of his CoolFire Trainer, and spoke very highly of the device. This year CoolFire is bringing us a new product line, the Sidekick, and long gun enthusiasts will be…
Dan and I visited Mec-Gar’s booth on Range Day, but I wanted to go back to get a better look at their new magazines. While I was there, I also got a look at their relatively new revisions to their 1911 magazines too. Before I get into the mags themselves, I want to commend Mec-Gar…
One of the more interesting things I saw during SHOT Show 2025 was the CRKT Provoke X Axe. I’m not a big blade guy, but this caught my ear, then my eye. What makes the CRKT Provoke X Axe stand out from the crowd is its folding mechanism. I’ve carried a variety of folding knives…
