Defender’s Gun Jams After First Shot

February 2, 2022 By Joshua Gillem

Yesterday I shared an article that was a defensive gun use. The accompanying video is excellent in more ways than one. You can see the moment the defender pulled his gun and fired the shot.

Does My Self-Defense Gun Need A Safety?

January 31, 2022 By Joshua Gillem

I saw a question posted recently in a Facebook gun group that caught my eye, mainly because it’s not a topic we’ve covered on this blog before. The question was something like this: How many of you have a manual safety on your carry gun? If so, why? I’ll attempt to answer this question in […]

The Left’s All Out Attack On Our Constitution

December 30, 2021 By Joshua Gillem

second amendment

Home Defense: How Voice Commands Save Lives

December 14, 2021 By Joshua Gillem

One of the most cringe worthy news articles I read concerning guns and self-defense is when a parent or someone else mistakes a loved one as an intruder in the middle of the night, opens fire on that person, killing them.

Best 38 Special Ammo For Self-Defense

November 24, 2021 By Joshua Gillem

The 38 Special is one of the most popular handgun calibers for self-defense. At least part of the reason why is because it has been around for so many years and has really had the chance for wide adoption. Another reason is because revolvers that shoot 357 Magnum will also be able to shoot the […]
