Gun: Model 1000 CarbineManufacturer: Universal Firearms; Hialeah, Fla.Chambering: .30 CarbineManufactured: c. 1968Condition: NRA Excellent (Modern Gun Standards)Value: $750 The United States Carbine, Caliber .30, M1 was one of the most prolific firearms made in World War II, with more than 6 million produced. After that conflict and the Korean War, many returning G.I.s wanted one of the light, handy rifles they had carried in service for their civilian lives. The M1 carbine excelled at everything from plinking to self-defense to close-range, medium-game hunting. But until the 1980s, military carbines were still in active use and being distributed around the free…

Like a lot of anglers, I got my intro to fishing with a farm-pond bank, a can of earthworms, and a red and white bobber. Reeling in bluegill (aka bream) was enough to get me hooked on fishing. But as a kid, I saw bream fishing as something to graduate from. I thought trading bobbers and bluegill beds for a bass boat and a baitcaster was just the natural progression of things.But bream aren’t just starter fish. Bluegill, shell crackers, and other sunfish are aggressive little predators. They don’t just cruise around looking for drowning worms or crickets. They’ll chase…

What if someone told you a likely voter who identifies as “very liberal” is more likely to carry concealed than a likely voter who identifies as “very conservative”? You’d likely ask what website printed that statistic. In this case, it came from a very reputable one: the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC). The CPRC hired McLaughlin & Associates to survey 1,000 general election voters on May 19, 2026, to determine how many voters carry concealed handguns.  “Hispanic and black voters carry concealed handguns at disproportionately high rates relative to their shares of the voting population,” noted the CPRC. “Perhaps most surprising,…

I’m dan Flores and this is the American West, Cobza Devaka’s fantastic journey after ten thousand years. How would you into it that the world as you’ve known it is about to change forever? Maybe you’d dream it, which at one insightful moment in the fifteen hundreds, is how a group of Native people located far inland on today’s Lake Superior first understood…

Is the 7x57mm Mauser M1893/95 rifle obsolete?  The original 7mm Mauser cartridge is in no way an obsolete cartridge, yet it can be improved when modern powders are used.  As of this date, few handloaders are exploring what can be done with the old warhorse when modern propellants are used to make it competitive with modern cartridges such as 7mm-08, 7.62 NATO, and even .308 Winchester.  There is no discussion on this topic that I’ve yet found on the Internet.  Perhaps we are breaking new ground, as we speak. The Rifle My goal is to develop an optimum load for…

So you can expect to see SurvivalBlog “Fresh Every Tuesday.” (An homage the late, great Ol’ Remus.) We discontinued the SurvivalBlog Writing Contest. Round 124 was the…
