Born at the tail end of the Cold War, the Glock 17 wasn’t built to be a safe queen; it was built to win. It was lighter, simpler, and tougher than anything else in the early ’80s, and it quickly proved itself in the hands of soldiers and operators who…

You’re outside, minding your own business, flipping burgers or trimming the hedges, when you hear that unmistakable mosquito-on-steroids buzz slicing through the afternoon air. You look up and see it: a drone hovering like some smug mechanical pigeon, camera blinking, rotors humming, the digital embodiment of “Hey neighbor, nice patio…

President Donald Trump said Saturday that he has directed the Defense Department to use “all available funds” to ensure U.S. troops are paid Wednesday despite the government shutdown, a short-term fix that will not apply to the hundreds of thousands of federal workers who have been furloughed.Trump said in a social media post that he was acting because “our Brave Troops will miss the paychecks they are rightfully due on October 15th.”The Republican president’s directive removes one of the pressure points that could have forced Congress into action, likely ensuring that the shutdown — now in its 11th day and…
Forgotten by Some, Trusted by Many Walk into a gun store in 2025 and you’ll be greeted by the usual suspects: polymer-framed pistols stacked like tactical trading cards, AR platforms with more rails than a freight terminal, and optics that cost more than your last vacation. But tucked away in the quieter cases—often overlooked—sits the heart of the revolver renaissance. Blued steel, stainless, matte black, and nickel-plated. Some are sleek and subdued. Others are flashy enough to make John Wick blush. A few even sport rails, red dots, and tuned triggers so crisp they might violate noise ordinances. They don’t…
This article was originally published by Joshua Mawhorter at the Mises Institute. Western and American culture can be said to have undergone a process of infantilization—reduction to a childish and immature state. The familiar maxim “hard times create strong men; strong men create good times; good times create weak men; weak men create hard times” has been applied quite a bit recently to American culture. This quote seems particularly apt regarding not just economic ignorance but also economic immaturity. The hard-won, time- and labor-intensive wealth of the West is simply taken for granted and assumed to be normal. Mises reminds us, “Every single performance…

THE FIRST THING Ray Johnson brought out when we started on our crow hunt was a worn and battered cowbell. I stared at the noisy contraption, for the only Ohio crow hunting I’d done in Ray’s company was of the stop-and-go variety: stop at a likely-looking bit of timber, call in and kill as many of the answering crows as possible, and then drift on down the road…
Late last month, U.S. Attorney General Pamela Bondi announced that the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division filed a federal lawsuit against the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD), citing a “pattern or practice of infringing the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens seeking concealed carry weapons (CCW) permits.” The six-month federal investigation found “unreasonable delays” in how the LASD issued CCW permits. Records revealed that only two permits had been approved out of more than 8,000 applications, and in some cases, the department waited over two years to even interview applicants. “The Second Amendment protects the fundamental constitutional right…
