Armed Citizen® Today On June 7, a woman was walking with her two dogs through a wilderness area to gather mushrooms near Skilak Lake, Alaska, when she heard a warning yelp and then painful screeching, followed by a loud roar. She charged into the dense vegetation, screaming for her dogs, and suddenly saw a black bear only about 5 feet away with blood dripping from its face. The bear was coming toward her, so the woman drew her firearm—a Glock 43 (9 mm)—and fired. The bear dropped long enough for her to see that her dog was still alive but…

In deer camp last year, gunwriter Richard Mann and I were talking about rifle cartridges, and he made a great point about the guns people suggest youth and women shooters use for big game. Richard is one of the most knowledgeable shooters out there. He’s tested countless cartridges and shot game all over the world for more than 25 years.

In a 6-3 rebuke of Hawaii’s attempt to circumvent the U.S. Supreme Court’s NRA-backed Bruen (2022) decision, the Court ruled in Wolford v. Lopez that “Hawaii’s law prohibiting licensed concealed-carry permit holders from carrying handguns on private property open to the public without the property owner’s express authorization violates the Second and Fourteenth Amendments.” The majority opinion was written by Justice Samuel Alito, a President George W.

Back there when he wouldn’t let me have a snack, he goes, I was dog cussing you in my head, and he’s like, I need to repent and I was like, oh, it’s fine. He goes, It’s what we needed to do, but I did not want to do it. And so man, I can just like I can shut that part of my brain off. Like I know everybody jokes about it, but I can literally just not go and then eat later…
