Introductory Note From JWR: This article is an update and small expansion to a succinct post that I made back in February, 2008. When the Second World War broke out in September, 1939, the United States had nearly two full years to ramp up military training and production before decisively confronting the Axis powers. In the mid-1970s, looking at the recent experience of the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, the Pentagon’s strategic planners came to the realization that the next major war that the US military would wage would not be like the Second World War. There would not be the luxury…

On or about August 20, 480 BC: The Battle of Thermopylae.  In one of history’s most famous “last stands”, 7,000 warriors from an alliance of Greek states led by Leonidas I blocked the pass of Thermopylae for a week against an invading Persian army estimated at 120,000-300,000 strong, led by Xerxes I. — August 20, 1935 was the birthday of former Congressman Ron Paul. Dr. Paul is to be commended for fighting the good fight for many years. Happy 90th Birthday! — August 20th, 1866 was the day that President Andrew Johnson formally declared the end of the Civil War.…

One of the things people like to say about my job, is that it sure must be nice to hunt and fish all the time. I always agree, because that sounds a lot better than mostly sitting at a desk pounding on the keyboard while waiting for the next Google Meet to start.While my job puts me into the field and on the water more than say, being a plumber, it’s still a lot of time not spent in the woods and on the water. Add in a pair of 13-year-old girls who haven’t met an activity or organized sport…

When Springfield Armory introduced its Echelon in 2023, it was a modern and modular striker-fired pistol with innovative features, like the Variable Interface System (VIS) that allowed for the direct mounting of most compact red dot optics on the market. The popularity of the Echelon lead to Springfield expanding the lineup, with compact models and finish options. As built-in compensators become more popular with everyone from competitors to concealed carry practitioners, Springfield has added an integrally compensated option to models from the Prodigy to the Hellcat. This year, Springfield is offering this option on its compact Echelons with the new-for-2025…

Founded in 1995, Extar Firearms is an American gunmaker operating out of Lake Havasu City, Ariz. The company’s flagship offering is the EP9, a 9 mm Luger-chambered semi-automatic originally available as a large-format pistol. Toward the end of 2023, however, the company released the first pistol-caliber carbine (PCC) configuration of the platform. We decided that the EP9 Carbine—sporting lightweight polymer construction, some AR-15 component compatibility, a unique bolt assembly and a no-lubricant-required design—deserved a closer look. The EP9 platform was designed to be as lightweight as possible. The company founder, who had an extensive background with high-performance polymers, drew upon…

There’s something alluring, almost sacred, about the idea of finding a buck’s bed, especially if it’s still warm or matted with white hair. It’s kind of like the scene in No Country for Old Men when Sheriff Bell finds the still-sweating glass of milk that Chigurh, the ruthless mercenary, drank from just minutes before. It’s an indicator that you’re on the trail, even if you’re a few steps behind. As tantalizing as a fresh buck bed is, do you really need to find it to kill a specific buck (or any)?If you’re not familiar with the term, backtracking a buck…
