The Gear Bunker
To say the market for striker fired polymer pistols is crowded is an understatement. However, when you look for models with threaded extended barrels and optics ready slides, that market becomes much smaller. This was the situation I found myself in when I got a call from an FFL friend of mine. Telling me he […]
This raw video shows how air assets can support ground forces in a dynamic environment. It appears that the Kiowa pilots try to initially slow down a pair of fleeing Taliban fighters on a motorcycle with warning shots. Maybe to allow the US forces in pursuit to catch up. Possibly because they don’t have clearance […]
I’ve written more than one article in the vein of holster guidance for new shooters. Typically one of my first pieces of advice is to ignore universal holsters. They typically suck. Retention sucks, size sucks, comfort sucks, and they are usually quite cheaply made for an educated audience. As with anything, there are exceptions and […]

Lessons Learned in Training I am writing this article as a declaration of war with the modern “Casual Range Culture” and the mindset of the average gun owner. This is, by no means, an attack on any person who chooses to exercise their constitutional rights. Instead, this is the acknowledgment that deep responsibility comes with […]
Tell me about your pistol? This was an interesting topic brought up at the Kyle Defoor 2 day pistol course I attended. This topic was brought up during one of his small break-out sessions he does throughout the day to give your eyes a break from shooting. The usual response to someone asking a dude […]
When I was a member of 2/75 Ranger, we trained with several forms of close air support. A-10’s, AH-64 Apache’s and MH-60 DAP’s. But one particular airframe rained supreme. The AC-130 Spectre Gunship or Ranger God in the sky. Built upon the reliable C-130 aircraft, this gunship has a wide variety of weapon systems and […]
These adrenaline-fueled John Wick series of movies showcase some of the most impressive firearms and gun handling skills in the history of Hollywood. This is largely thanks to the extensive training that Keanu Reeves underwent with the renowned professional shooter, Taran Butler. Together, they ensured that the firearms used in the films not only looked […]
