This gun was created specifically for the newest “all the rage” on the USPSA competition circuit, and as pistol caliber carbines go, you don’t have a ton of options. Above that, you don’t have any real prior options that were specifically built to never fail in a competition setting.

This year we took a novel track and printed a special poker set, as you can see in the video and pictures. It is expensive, $199 plus shipping, but including administration costs we will make little or more likely nothing on them. We are offering them for sale for only 4 days, Tuesday to Friday this week, or we may leave it up until Monday.

I have tried for a couple weeks now to broaden the picture of why we may need all of this junk that I cover, and this week we are on the topic of perimeter security. These days there is a stereotypical “Prepper” character in all of our minds that we got from movies and cable, and most of us think of that character as an “extremist.” If you think that the extent of your prepping only needs to cover a 3 day snow emergency or a 2 week hurricane outage, good luck to you. This column is about the end of our food and consumption infrastructure, and I believe that it may be imminent.

Lighting fires is never easy in a survival situation. So for those times when you have some sun, this is a great tool, and it’s cheap.

A recent study from Harvard University identified a new class of gun owner they are labelling the “Super Owner.” Since 2008, the scare of an Obama gun confiscation has brought millions of Americans into gun ownership. Apparently those of us who own more than 10 guns are new to the empty brains at Harvard, because they are attributing this new class of gun owners to the “Super Owner” class, rather than it being a natural percentage of the firearm enthusiast crown, of which it has always been. The key number was 14% of all gun owners, or 7.6mm adults and 3% of the total U.S. population, possessed 50% of all guns owned by civilians in the country.

The Traditions Mountain Rifle is a Hawken style traditional sidelock muzzleloader with a double tenon wedge system. It is deadly accurate with roundballs, and is absolutely gorgeous for the $520 price. If you have always wanted a traditional style muzzleloader, this new entry to the Traditions stable is probably the one.

The Traditions Lady Whitetail is a limited edition Pursuit G4 in a special pink Hotleaf camo. Built for the female shooter, or anyone who loves pink camo, my range test showed the gun to be reliable and accurate. At $515, this is yet another great value from Traditions Firearms.

This week I am returning to making soap for no other particular reason other than making a video. I know that many of my regular readers went on to actually make soap after my original article almost exactly two years ago. And since we pick up over 1,000 subscribers per day here, I’m sure lots of new dedicated readers/watchers didn’t even know it was there.
