The National Rifle Association announced last week its intention to file voluntary chapter 11 bankruptcy to escape what it believes are politically motivated attacks by New York’s attorney general.

If you’re a serious handgun shooter, eventually you are going to want a serious pistol. One that was designed for true perfection, and to maximize the shooter’s ability to perform. Such a pistol is the CZ 75 Tactical Sport Orange, or TSO. It is one of the most elite production handguns on the market. Let’s explore why.

The complete BRN-180 ain’t cheap ($130-150 for the lower + $900 for the upper + parts), but it’s a great option if you’re in an AR-15 rut. The side charging handle and folding stock are eye-catchers at the range, and the rifle is reliable and accurate. While your buddies are building another AR-15 for their ever-expanding collection, branch out to something a little different and check out the BRN-180 from Brownells.

US military handguns have not been sold to citizens as surplus weapons in quite a long time. Given the current political climate, it’s really hard to tell how long the CMP will keep getting 1911s to sell. I am really happy with the pistol I received, and I believe you will be as well if you get one. If you’re a diehard 1911 fan, these are a must and they’re definitely worth the wait. It’s not every day that you can buy a real piece of history.

The war in Vietnam was winding down, and Michael Thornton was one of only a dozen Navy SEALs remaining in the country. On October 31, 1972, Thornton formed a team along with a SEAL officer named Thomas Norris and three South Vietnamese Special Forces operators.

De-platforming, canceling and outright censoring of speech by some in big tech is something entirely different. It’s Orwellian. It’s un-American, and it’s a dark omen for where we are headed as a nation.

The rideshare app Lyft would rather have its drivers be victims of violent crime than have them use lawful force to be survivors of it.
