Why Training To Shoot And Move Could Save Your Life

October 19, 2022 By Joshua Gillem

It’s no secret that I’m a big proponent of concealed carry (or open carry if you’re so inclined). I think that every person in the United States should carry a gun for self-defense.

June 28, 2022 By Joshua Gillem

For a recent defensive gun use story I wrote, a social media commentator mentioned that she didn’t see a problem with drawing your gun when you’re looking down the barrel of a gun yourself.
