“Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.” Sun Tsu NAA Mini Revolver Small self-defense tools are among the most deceptive tools available for the common man. We have been raised to believe that size is everything. It is cultural in the western world, everything from lips to bottoms and all in between bigger is better …

by Bill H Modular guns appear to be a new concept, however, they have been around quite some time in various forms. From the carbine variant of a service rifle carried by a cavalryman to the Thompson/Center Contender with its myriad of barrel options, the ability to interchange parts of a gun or offer a different take on the same …

As someone who carries because my life depends on it I have been asked this question and responded in much the same way that I am about to respond now. The simple answer to the title question is, yes if it is 99% reliable with 500-1000 rounds before using as a carry gun. Now the difficult part to this question, showing you why it can …

By P Not being an impulse buyer, I spent quite a bit of time reading up on the Ruger LCP .380 and Ruger LCP .380 prices before buying my little pocket rocket. I wanted to make sure my $$$ got what I expected. I did, and then some. I am pleased and not sorry I bought this gem. The Ruger LCP .380 is a quality …

This is one of those articles that is Extremely Difficult to write. It is not my intent to tell you that you are wrong if you choose differently than I.

It should be noted that this article is meant to be informative and is not a suggestion to carry a .22 rimfire handgun as a primary defensive tool.
