A shocking attempt to outlaw all forms of hunting, fishing, and trapping, as well as animal husbandry, breeding practices, rodeos, and more, in Oregon has failed. IP28, or the People for the Elimination of Animal Cruelty Exemptions (PEACE) Act, was a proposed ballot measure put forward by animal-rights extremists seeking to make a statement.In January, David Michelson, the main backer of the measure, told the Willamette Weekly that his effort was similar to the women’s suffrage movement and that while he was under no illusions that it would pass, he hoped it would “help people think differently” about what constitutes…

Once a staple in law-enforcement holsters, the 1911 has fallen out of favor, largely due to its limited capacity and .45 ACP chambering. The recent popularity of hybrid-framed 2011-style pistols has changed that, with single-action, 1911-type pistols once again finding themselves on duty belts. Syndicus Defense Corporation, a California-based manufacturer of custom firearms and accessories, is adding its name to the market with the Cryptic 1911 DS. The Cryptic 1911 DS is Syndicus Defense’s take on the 2011-stylen hybrid-framed pistol. Chambered in 9 mm Luger, the Cryptic 1911 DS follows the standard 2011-pattern, utilizing a 7075 aluminum main frame and…

Earlier this year, we attended Range Ready’s “Plinkapalooza,” a celebration of all things rimfire. There were head-to-head shoot offs, challenges and incredible feats of marksmanship on display, with most firearms chambered in .22 LR, but also some .17 HMR and .22 Mag. represented. Firearms, in semi-automatic pistol, revolver and rifle, were plentiful, as well as various ammunition offerings, sound suppressors. We even saw a few brand-new products unveiled. One of the more intriguing firearms present was the new .22 LR Mountain Gun, a Smith & Wesson Model 617 presented through Lipseys with some special touches. Several of the notable changes…

On July 24, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) opened up a two-week-long public comment period as a request for information on the implementation of drain tile setbacks. Before I lose you with that very exciting opener, know that this is a crucial time for hunters and conservationists to raise our voices for waterfowl and more in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR).The PPR, affectionately known by hunters as “The Duck Factory,” spans North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, and Montana (it also reaches far into Canada).

00:00:04 Speaker 1: As difficult as it is for someone today in the South to look back and to call them the t word traders. I mean that’s what they were. They were rebellious, they were traders, and to be able to have the magnanimity to realize that the most important thing is we need to get this country back in order, and the quickest way to do that is to treat these people who yesterday we were shooting at and trying to kill as fellow humans and as fellow Americans. 00:00:38 Speaker 2: The elusive final episode of our…

Various U.S. Circuit Courts have ruled that the AR-15, often called “America’s rifle,” can be banned. Meanwhile, on July 17, 2026, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, sitting en banc, struck down New Jersey’s long-standing ban on these popular semi-automatic “assault firearms” and magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds as unconstitutional. This tees up this critical constitutional issue for the U.S. Supreme Court, which has agreed to hear cases challenging bans of these popular semi-automatic in the coming term. To make sense of this issue, Joseph Greenlee, director of the Office of Litigation Counsel at the NRA Institute for Legislative…
