Your Survival Guy filled out paperwork last night for an ArmaLite AR-10. For those of you wondering why, I did it for three reasons. For one, I have a friend who owns a ranch in Texas—an expanse as far as the eye can see. He owns an AR-10. Your Survival guy was intrigued. Second, I see it as a complement to my AR-15. The caliber ammo for an AR-10 is .308. An AR-15 .223. Unless you’ve been living in Joe Biden’s basement the last few months, you know ammo is as rare as hens’ teeth—and expensive. A little diversification never hurt no one. Your Survival Guy also hung around the gun club last … [Read more...]
You Ain't Taking My Guns
Will You Be Ready When the Mob Comes a Knockin’?
Are you prepared for winter? I hope you are. This one might be a tough one. You know that along with strengthening your immunity and getting your guns and your training (read here, here, here, and here for starters), you also need to consider the violence spreading to the burbs. It’s tragic, especially if you live in the blue states/cities, you see how leaders have prolonged the devastation from this virus for their own political gain. Take a look at the 2,000-plus page, $2.2 trillion with a “t”, Pelosi pork-ridden relief bill, and the largest line item by far is $436 billion for, wait … [Read more...]
Friday Night Shoot with My Kids
For years, when my kids were younger, we would go to our rifle club with my friend and his two daughters for a Friday night kids shoot sponsored by the club. We’d grab dinner beforehand and then head over. Every session began with a video on safety and then the kids, from all over the island, would have a club member help them work the club's .22 rifles. It was fun bringing the targets home and standing around the kitchen island talking about shots taken, good and bad. This Friday my kids will drive to the club together for their junior membership orientations, but this time without … [Read more...]
If the Global Elite Win in November, Say Goodbye to Your Guns
In The Wall Street Journal, Daniel Henninger details a Monmouth poll on Americans' feelings about the importance of law and order in their communities. He writes: A Monmouth poll out this week finds 65% of respondents say “maintaining law and order” is a big problem. The poll’s self-identified party affiliations are 28% Republican, 41% independent and 31% Democratic. Here’s the election’s ticking time-bomb: Among “non-Republican” blacks and other minorities, more than 60% agree that civil disorder has become a big issue, while just 46% of white non-Republicans see it as a problem. Looks like … [Read more...]
Second Amendment Principles Become Self Defense Practicality
You may be one of the many Americans who has long supported the Second Amendment but never felt inclined to own a firearm yourself. That group of Americans is shrinking rapidly, as those who have long believed in the Second Amendment but never owned a firearm are purchasing guns at record rates. First-time gun ownership is soaring, and it's not because of some newfound philosophical understanding of the Second Amendment. Gun ownership is soaring because of the practical need for self-defense. Americans are literally watching their police forces sent home. Cities across the nation are … [Read more...]

Americans Want Guns Now More than Ever: Will They Elect Anti-Gun Politicians?
You might be one of the millions of Americans who have purchased a gun this year. If you're reading this site, it's even likelier. I have always encouraged you to get your guns and your training now, and millions of Americans are doing just that. They are scared of riots, and politicians who want them to defund the police forces they rely on for safety. In response, gun sales are soaring. The Wall Street Journal reports: There’s nothing like nationwide protests and a murder surge in major cities to cause a spurt of new gun sales. Gun controllers may want to rethink their 2020 … [Read more...]
Lott Debunks Gun Control Myths
You have undoubtedly heard some "analyst" on a major media network say that the U.S. has more mass shootings than anywhere else in the world.

In the new book, Lott breaks down media-driven myths like the one about mass shootings, examines the data, and debunks them. At National Review, Robert Verbruggen reviews Lott's new book, writing: In a heavily publicized study, the researcher Adam Lankford purported to count all the mass shootings across the world since 1966, and he … [Read more...]
