The Mil-Dot system is exceptionally versatile - if you know how to use it. If you shoot a rifle, you can use mil-dot to hold the correct amount over a distant target. There’s a lot of fancy math behind the whole mil-dot thing, but we’re going to ignore most of that here and explain the concept, and more importantly, how you can use it, in plain English. There won’t even be a quiz at the end, I promise.

“We’re bringing back the One Million Gun Challenge with a twist,” said Mike Fifer, Sturm, Ruger & Co.’s chief executive officer. “Our goal is to sell two million firearms between the 2015 and 2016 NRA Annual Meetings.

Are all armed threats created equally? Put another way, would you treat a juvenile with a gun the same way you would treat a man with a gun?

My dear friends, we have been played, and we are actually being set up. Never in a million years would I have guessed that I would be writing you about this topic, but I have discovered something that I feel like must share with the many thousands of you who are longtime readers. I finally figured it out, after years of digging. It all connects, all of the craziness that is our current world, and you aren’t going to believe how. It isn’t little green men from Mars, or Illuminati, or devil worshipers, or reptilian time travelers. One thing and one thing only brings together the nonsensical gun confiscation nuts, the police state, reckless money printing, unpayable debt, spying, and even all the fake government stories. The one thing is not what I ever thought it could be. I won’t keep it a secret. Most likely we are for real talking about is the end of all life on this planet. The efforts to stop the process, which could very well be an inevitability, aren’t working. The methods they are using are right in the skies above your head, and they are still top secret. Most likely they are making the end come sooner, and there doesn’t seem to be anything we can do except wake up to what is going on, and wake our friends and family up, at the risk of looking like a fool. One thing I think I can assure you though, is that the end...

Those discerning single action aficionados amongst us already know the Nighthawk name. Their 1911s aren't dressed up in elaborate finishes. They don't have exotic grips. These are hard working guns meant to be carried, and shot. I recently had the chance to put the 9mm T4 through its paces, and the compact carry gun has changed the way I think about single actions. I'm a skeptic, but I'd carry this gun--no question about it.

Winchester's Train and Defend line is a concept long overdue. Use range ammo to train, but carry the good stuff. And both are the same grain weight. The idea is that you save money, but the ammo performs exactly the same. How well does it work?
