The popularity of the “Donut of Death” highlights an important reality about shooting: speed and precision are not always competing goals. By taking advantage of how the human eye and brain naturally process visual information, the large circular reticle allows shooters to acquire targets quickly while still providing enough precision for accurate shot placement. Rather

In Arizona, we wait 99 seconds. Catch up, States. After living in California my entire life, I moved to Arizona in 2018. When I bought my first firearm here, it felt like an out-of-body experience. I didn’t yet have an Arizona CCW permit, so the woman behind the counter made a quick phone call, exchanged

This article highlights important facts, but the push to ban Glocks over illegal switch use is really a distraction from the larger goal: restricting firearm ownership one step at a time. Today it’s Glocks; tomorrow it’s every other gun. State legislatures in California, Maryland, Connecticut, and New York have spent the past two years passing

Few firearms have had as much impact on the modern handgun market as the Glock. Its introduction revolutionized handgun design, popularized the polymer framed pistol, and forced virtually every major manufacturer to adapt or be left behind. Today, shooters benefit from an unprecedented selection of reliable, lightweight, high capacity handguns, many of which owe their

If states can simply redefine most public spaces as gun-free zones, the right to bear arms becomes little more than a theoretical right. Two Second Amendment cases have been heard by the Supreme Court this term. The Supreme Court’s opinions in those two cases are expected to be announced before the end of June 2026.

This article uses satire to expose a serious flaw in the “only flintlocks are protected” argument. Constitutional rights are not frozen in 1791. The First Amendment protects the internet, television, and social media even though none existed when the Bill of Rights was written. The Second Amendment likewise protects modern firearms, not just muskets. What’s

Republican and Democratic administrations alike have expanded, defended, or tolerated an agency many Americans view as a continuing threat to civil liberties and the Second Amendment. While many gun owners believe Democratic administrations are the worst offenders when it comes to ATF overreach, Republican administrations have often done little to reverse or restrain the agency’s

Know that the States will never stop their efforts to Infringe on the Second Amendment. If you needed yet another reason not to move to California, a new proposal in the state legislature should make the growing list. According to a report at CalMatters, Senate Bill 948 would require gun owners moving to California to complete a four-hour

No one at the ATF has ever been prosecuted, much less meaningfully punished, for these abuses. But punishing individual agents will not solve the underlying problem. Until the ATF is abolished, or its firearms regulatory authority is removed, these abuses will continue. Federal firearms regulation rests on the government’s claimed authority to tax and regulate

What makes this case so troubling is that the plaintiffs were not alleged to be prohibited persons. According to the lawsuit, Bergen County officials confiscated firearms, revoked or denied permits, and took other actions against law-abiding citizens based on concerns about someone else living in the household. If those allegations are accurate, the county has
