I grew up on a steady stream of books that contained not only really great information, but a lot of high-quality pictures. I could probably spend hours reading and looking at Stephen Biesty’s Incredible Cross-Sections. These days, however, I’ve come to really appreciate the more historically oriented coffee table books that Headstamp Publishing has been putting out. Their latest book, authored by Forgotten Weapons’ Ian McCollum, Forged in Snow: Finnish Small Arms 1917-2025, is available now through their Kickstarter campaign, which has already fulfilled its funding goal, a mere 6 hours into it. Forged in Snow: Finnish Small Arms 1917…

If you’ve always thought that the ban on carrying firearms in post offices was bogus, you’ll be gratified to know that the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas agrees with you. On September 30, the court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in a case challenging the ban on possessing and carrying firearms in post offices. In granting summary judgment in favor of the plaintiffs, the court granted both declaratory and injunctive relief, declaring the ban unconstitutional and enjoining its enforcement against the plaintiffs. “The Court determines that both 18 U.S.C. § 930(a) and 39 C.F.R. § 232.1(1)…

Through the screening leaves I see my husband raise his eyebrows, but he doesn’t object. Instead, he falls in line and we begin to creep, single-file and shielded by brush, across the valley toward a herd of caribou. The 800 yards of tundra between us looks flat. It’s why we’re…
The Pentagon issued several memos this week that impose strict fitness and grooming standards, lessen education requirements and upend the Defense Department’s processes for reporting discrimination and fraud, waste and abuse.“It all starts with physical fitness and appearance,” Hegseth told hundreds of military leaders during a rare gathering of top brass at Marine Corps Base Quantico on Tuesday. “Frankly, it’s tiring to look out at combat formations, or really any formation, and see fat troops.”According to one memo with the subject line “Military Fitness Standards” released Tuesday, active-duty troops are now required to take two annual fitness tests, in addition…

A 60-year-old man who was found dead at an Arkansas campground Thursday was likely killed by a black bear, according to officials in Newton County. In a statement issued Wednesday, the Newton County Sheriff’s Office said it was still awaiting autopsy results to determine the man’s cause of death, but that a preliminary investigation led them to believe a bear was responsible. “Until the Arkansas Crime Lab completes the autopsy, we can’t one hundred percent say it was a bear, but…

Gun owners are the losers, and the federal government, which was alleged to be pro-gun now, is the winner in a Texas-based case challenging the federal law making it illegal to sell or purchase handguns across interstate lines. On September 30, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas upheld the unconstitutional provision that prevents lawful Americans from practicing their Second Amendment rights in a Firearms Policy Coalition-backed challenge known as Elite Precision Customs v. ATF. “The plain text of the Second Amendment does not cover the conduct regulated by the Sale Restrictions,” District Judge Mark Pittman wrote…

It tickled my nose unbearably. Though I buried my face in the rimrock, that sneeze exploded like a Comanche war whoop. Lee lay taut beside me. “All you needed to…

This article was originally published by Ryan McMaken at The Mises Institute. In recent weeks, the Trump administration has deployed—or threatened to deploy—National Guard troops in at least five American cities, including Chicago, Portland, Los Angeles, and New Orleans. Many of Trump’s supporters have cheered this, claiming that it is the responsibility of the president to send federal troops wherever he determines they are needed. In some cases, deployments have occurred over the objections of the governments in the states where the troops are deployed. This has led to a complex legal situation, with the governments of California and Oregon suing…
