It is hard to overestimate the importance of European firearms manufacturers for the global industry. Austrian Glock needs no introduction; Belgian FN Herstal was the main manufacturer of US military weapons for years; the list goes on and on.
Modern armies have drones, armored vehicles and advanced surveillance systems. The British Army is also exploring what a much older platform can still offer: a horse. Soldiers from the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment recently took part in a mounted combat capability experiment on the Barossa training area in Sandhurst, bringing military working horses into challenging terrain alongside soldiers carrying their SA80 rifles.
Welcome back to another edition of Concealed Carry Corner. Last week, we took a look at how to find the perfect carry gun for you. If you happened to miss that article, be sure to click the link here to check it out. This week, I want to take a look at some of the biggest mistakes both new and experienced concealed carriers make when they choose certain gear for their guns and carrying equipment. Let's take a closer look at the biggest carry mistakes.
If you gotta go to the hospital, this is pretty sweet to have on your playlist.
And props to Hugh Laurie for performing a great old classic that everyone - and I mean everyone, like Satchmo and Cab Calloway - has covered. And crushing it.
Off Grid Suppressors has rolled out five new models at once, spanning rimfire and centerfire builds in both HUB-adapted and direct-thread configurations. The Minnesota company builds the lineup with additively manufactured titanium and Inconel.
At CANCON West 2026, @BallisticAviation talks with Shawn of Polite Society Industries about the company’s line of 3D-printed suppressors. A group of industry veterans founded the Tampa, Florida, company in 2026. Its pitch is simple: the $200 federal tax stamp on suppressors went to $0 on January 1, 2026, and buyers should see the savings.
We disposed of all the gun cleaning chemicals (CLP, Hoppes #9, Stainless Steel Lube) before we moved. It also appears that the rest (Gun Snakes, bore brushes, half my bore patches) went with the liquids. I needed to start over today, which simplifies my collection. Two gun snakes, a collection of bore brushes to go with the cleaning rods that escaped the purge, Hoppes #9, and CLP. I may need to order stainless steel lube.
I went shooting at lunch time at Shooter's Source, an indoor pistol range and gun store in Kingsport. Nice range.
I have not shot my Government Model in several years. It has a 4 1/2 pound trigger, which more than compensates for the intrinsic slop of the 1911's intentional slide to frame tolerances. At 7 yards, firing one round a second, is good enough for most shots center of mass.
The Walther works great. Again, one shot per second puts all the shots in the center of mass. 'The inadequate gun you carry is better than the major caliber you do not carry because of weight or bulkiness "
I have not fired or cleaned the Government Model in several years and I found myself saying, "How does this reassemble?" The Browning Hi-Power is different in several ways. It took a while but I finally figured it out.
In 2023, Zev and WRMFZY teamed up to release the original OZ DOOM. Now, this custom OZ9 is back with a longer slide and a distinctive look that’s hard to ignore.
The UK’s Ministry of Defence has fired the starter pistol on Project Grayburn, the program to replace the in-service SA80 / L85A3. The Ministry of Defense posted a notice for an Industry Day for Project Grayburn to get input from industry on what systems, capabilities and manufacturing packages could be offered for the replacement of SA80. The industry day is due to take place at the end of November.
So I had surgery. The doc injected something called a SpaceOar (yeah, stupid name). Basically it's to provide some separation of the cancerous and non-cancerous tissue for the radiation will focus on the former and not the latter.
The doc also said he put in three gold bits that will help aim the beam better. I thanked him for bedazzling my ass ...
And now the Queen Of The World has another surgery. This shit is getting old. I've never had a month that went like this, health-wise.
Foxtrot Mike Lima.
At CANCON West 2026, @BallisticAviation talks with Josh of LayerX Suppression about the company’s new rimfire suppressor, the Trace 22. The Trace 22 is 3D printed entirely from titanium and rated well beyond .22 LR. Along with all rimfire calibers, it’s rated for 5.7x28, .22 Magnum, and 5.56 fired from a bolt-action rifle with a 16-inch barrel. That lets one can cover a plinking .22, a 5.7 pistol or carbine, and a light bolt gun.
Light and dark collide on the new SIG Sauer P365-AXG EQUINOX. The slide carries the Equinox polished treatment, a finish where bright polished flats meet the dark Nitron surfaces around them, and the contrast continues down to the E-Nickel trigger and controls set against a black AXG grip module. This is a Custom Works pistol, and the company describes it as the next evolution of one of its most iconic Custom Works designs.
At CANCON West 2026, @BallisticAviation stops by TENET Suppressors to see the company’s newest line, the Buckskin series. Co-Founder Mike explains that TENET built its name on lightweight hunting suppressors for long-range and backcountry shooters, and the Buckskin is aimed at a different hunter: the whitetail crowd. The series launches in three models: the Buckskin 30, 360, and 460.
Rubber bumpers at both ends, recessed rear window, and checkered flags on the fender rather than a "Stingray" badge mark this as a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette in Corvette Bright Yellow.
The hood badge proclaims the presence of the optional L82 performance engine, which was at something of a Malaise Era nadir for the '76-'77 model years, producing only 205 horsepower.

I have not been ignoring y'all, I just haven't found anything that piques my interest enough to write about. This morning, though, I found an email from Jacob at Wideners. They have done a deep dive on the .300 Blackout. For those of you unaware, the .300 Blackout is a niche cartridge designed to run through a standard AR platform. Some folks really like it.
For those interested, the link is here. It looks fairly interesting, and there is a lot of information there.
In other shooting mews, I'm having trouble with the Winchester 94 I mounted the red dot sight on. Mainly, having trouble scheduling range time. Life keeps getting in the way of range time.
Fr those of you, who like me, are not particularly interested in watching the clock, I am reminded that once again this weekend, we are going to do the whole "Fall Back" thing on Sunday morning. I don't recall when this foolishness started, but I would not be averse to seeing it end. Pick one and stick with it, but don't make me change my clock twice a year.
BASC has launched a new campaign inviting women from across the shooting community to share their personal stories, celebrating the diverse pathways into shooting and inspiring more women to get involved.

FAST Idaho is in the books, so I sat back down with Russell Phagan to talk through the weekend at the Parma Rod and Gun Club. Last time he was on the show , we covered the Auto-Rifle division before it had ever seen a stage. This time it's the after-action version. We dig into why FAST matches are built the way they are, how Russell lays out a stage, and what competitors should be thinking about when they pick their gear if they get lucky enough to land themselves a spot in a Firearms Action Shooting Trials match.
We spent another weekend in Blacksburg recently, enjoying plenty of good food and drink and, of course, Hokie football. As usual, I packed a few cigars just in case an opportunity arose to enjoy a smoke or two. Although the weather forecast for the weekend kept changing, rain appeared to be a sure thing. But one never knows.
After enjoying an early dinner and some good beers at
Eastern Divide Brewing, I headed out to the hotel patio with a glass of
Maker’s Mark Bourbon from the hotel bar while the rest of the family rested in their rooms. One last check of the weather app on my phone showed that rain wasn’t expected for another three hours.
I lit one of the
Surpassion Half Track cigars I had picked up at the
Hogshead Cigar Lounge event
last month. I figured the short cigar would provide a pleasant smoke before the rain arrived.
As luck would have it, no sooner had I applied the flame than I felt the first raindrops. I quickly relocated to a table with an umbrella and hoped the rain would be minimal.
The Surpassion Half Track is a limited-edition extension of the company’s King of Battle line. Measuring 4 x 53, it’s a short robusto that uses the same American Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, Mexican San Andrés binder, and blend of Dominican and American fillers as the King of Battle. The Half Track is exclusive to Hogshead Cigar Lounge in Fredericksburg.
The cigar starts with a nice blend of espresso and cocoa, accompanied by a dose of black pepper. As the smoke progresses, the fudge-like sweetness and bitter espresso remain in a pleasing balance.
The bourbon selection at the hotel was limited, and I had neglected to bring along a bottle of my own. However, Maker’s Mark proved to be a very satisfactory choice that paired well with the Half Track. The bourbon’s soft vanilla sweetness complemented the dark fudge notes of the cigar, while its mild character allowed the cigar’s flavor profile to remain in the lead.
As I smoked, the rain began to fall harder. The weather forecasters had gotten this one wrong. Fortunately, tucking myself close to the table under the umbrella blocked most of the rain. The occasional mist that blew through was tolerable, and the cigar remained unaffected.
As I approached the end of the surprisingly long smoke, nearly an hour had passed. The rain began coming down more heavily, and I was quite happy to have gotten in an enjoyable, relaxing smoke at the end of a long day of travel and dining.
Cheers!

(AmmoLand.com)-An official National Park Video shows double meaning, irony, and tragedy, in three screenshots.
Link to video by NPS Glacier National Park on Youtube, created November 19, 2017 The video is only two minutes and 39 seconds long.
Link to the original video with text showing at the Glacier National Park site.
On July 25, 2014, Brian D. Murphy used both bear spray and a .357 magnum revolver to stop a charging grizzly bear. He probably shot the bear in the face. The shot stunned the bear, stopped the charge, but did not kill the bear. Murphy shot the bear after it had charged through the bear spray. Murphy helped keep other hikers safe. He immediately told park rangers about the incident. All the physical evidence was consistent with Murphy's account. The bear had left by the time the rangers arrived, but blood and hair and DNA confirmed it was a grizzly bear. Murphy was not charged by the investigating officers. His firearm was not taken. Two months later, he was charged by officers of the National Park Service. Murphy hired an attorney who took the case before the local federal judge and the local Assistant United States Attorney. The case was dismissed with predjudice on October 9, 2014, meaning Murphy could not be charged again.
Murphy's case made the local media and was widely known as a case where bear spray failed and a .357 magnum shot to the face worked.
On November 19, 2017, Glacier National Park created an official video titled: Using Bear Spray. The video is 2 minutes and 39 seconds long. According to the description, it is in the public domain. The same two actors are seen in at least one other video where the uniformed actor is identified as "Ranger Simpson" and the non-uniformed actor identified as "Buddy". They star in a series of videos created in 2017. Sam Simpson identifies himself as a ranger with seven years experience. The video was written and produced by Scott Holmes. Scott Holmes is an independent music composer who also contracts nature films. A year after these videos were created, Scott Holmes Music was created in Scotland, UK.
It would be difficult to believe the park rangers were not intimately familiar with the Brian Murphy case. It seems likely why they were laughing at the obvious double meaning at the end of the video. It may come from a lack of knowledge by Scott Holmes or it may be intentional. It could easily have been avoided by using the word "spray" to substitute for "shoot". The text at the end of the video could have been "if you spray a bear in the face."
In the Brian Murphy experience, bear spray failed to stop the bear. A shot from a .357 magnum to the face at 7-10 feet worked extremely well. With this context, it is easy to see why the statements are funny in a video on how to use bear spray.
The irony is palpable. A video showing how to use bear spray, saying it only is effective with a (gun)shot to the face of the bear.
The screen shots are from Glacier National Park Video. The text in screenshots is in the original video. In the outtake, the crew laughed at the above statements, as shown in the screenshot from the outtake below:

The phrases, funny in 2017, when considering the Brian Murphy case, reflect tragedy in 2026.
In 2026, Anthoni Pollio appears to have been killed by a grizzly bear on May 3, 2026, close to the same spot where Brian Murphy stopped a grizzly bear charge with his .357 magnum in July of 2014. Both were on the Mount Brown trail. The trail is only 4 miles long.
Would Pollio have acted differently if the National Park Service were not so intent on promoting the use of bear spray? Would Anthoni Pollio still be alive today? We can never know.
In North America, as of May, 2026, there have been nine people who were killed by bears after bear spray was used as a defense against the bears. There do not appear to be any people killed by bears when a handgun was present and fired against bears in North America. One person who fired a .22 caliber handgun in defense against a polar bear in the Svalbard archipelago was killed in 1996.
In November, 2017, the statistical evidence supporting the use of handguns in defense against bears had only been building for a year. In 2026, the statistical evidence is well developed.

“Two individuals who knew each other had some of type a dispute,” Kochis said. “They engaged with each other at the Taco Bell. One person pulled out a weapon. Another person pulled out their own weapon, which was a firearm, and shot the person in the shoulder. Thankfully it was non-life-threatening injuries. We’re working with the commonwealth attorney now to determine appropriate charges. But on its face, preliminarily, it does look like self-defense.”

One of the debates in the firearms world is on-body vs. off-body concealed carry. Simply choosing to carry a firearm with you everywhere you go already seems like such a complex task, and then you have to consider how exactly you plan to carry your firearm. Most likely, you’ll also have solicited and unsolicited input from those around you, saying how you should, or shouldn’t, carry what works for them and why it will work for you, and why the way so-and-so chooses to carry is wrong. All the noise can be overwhelming and frustrating to someone who just wants to find their best way to carry safely.
Some pistols get a new set of sights and call it an upgrade. Others get the full treatment. The SIG Sauer P226-X AGENCY belongs firmly in the second category. Unveiled at SIG NEXT, it brings together two names that need little introduction in the handgun world: SIG Sauer and Agency Arms. The result is a full-size 9mm P226 with a distinctly custom look, finished in Bronze Cerakote that makes it look right at home in a collection where ordinary black pistols might struggle to get noticed.
Welcome back to TFB’s Wheelgun Wednesday. Today’s installment is a new product announcement: Taurus has added a shorter 8 3/8" barrel to its 350 Legend Raging Hunter that joins the 10-inch and 14-inch versions already in the line. TFB covered the 350 Legend Raging Hunter in another Wheelgun Wednesday , and this is the version that finally looks like a revolver rather than a carbine that lost its stock.
Hitting a drone with gunfire is hard for an unglamorous reason: by the time the bullet arrives, the drone has moved. SIG Sauer's answer is the XRAY9-CUAS, a counter-unmanned aircraft systems electro-optic unveiled at AUSA, and the idea behind it is to let a soldier point and shoot while the optic works out where the drone will be.
Canik has spent a decade building pistols that undercut what people expect to pay for the feature set, then added suppressors , and has now launched CANIK OPTICS with four pistol red dots across two families. Let’s take a detailed look at the new red dots.
Bear Creek Arsenal added a bolt-action twist to its sprawling AR catalog on October 27 with the launch of the Bear Bolt Pro Series, a run of bolt-action AR uppers and complete rifles.
There is something faintly amusing about an Italian company making grips for the pistol that the U.S. military replaced with an Italian pistol, yet here we are. WOOX has added 1911 grip panels to a catalogue that until now has been rifle stocks, axes and knives. They are handcrafted in Italy, offered in Claro grade American walnut or Micarta, and come in three textures: Plain, Diamond and X-Grip.

Echelon gets adopted by Spain's National Police! Let's take a look at the details.
As we get into the colder fall weatherI dust off my "fall/winter" comfort food recipes. When you wake up and it's in the 30's, you don't look forward to salad for dinner.

Moosellaneous? Easy to thaw and serve, but you can only do meatloaf so many times on these increasingly colder days.
How about a walk on the Canadian side.
Pâté chinois is a French Canadian dish similar to English Cottage Pie, Shepherds Pie or the French hachis Parmentier. Something I learned to cook from a family member, as, there is a Montreal branch of the Range clan through marriage. I'd posted the recipe on the sidebar, and a quick link a while back, but not all of you may have seen it.
I can also teach you some common French Canadian sayings (which I picked up with the cooking and could be useful in both cooking AND in today's election)
Va pèter dans le trèfle.
‘go fart in the clover’.
Baise-moué l’ailKiss my garlic
Il lui manque des bardeaux.
'He’s missing a few tiles'.
Reçu comme un chien dans un jeu de quilles.
'Welcome as a dog in a bowling alley.’
La rondelle ne roule pas pour lui.
'The puck isn’t going his way'.
Grosse Corvette, p’tite quéquette
‘big car, little uh. . . (euphemism here)
Avoir mal aux cheveux
'To be so sodden with booze and hung-over on the morning after that you are having a ‘hair ache’.
J’ai vu neiger.
I’m not just off the boat.
Ah, but back to the intent of this post.
DINNER!
Pâté chinois
I make this several times a year, especially when I have quite a bit of leftover mashed potatoes. It's a wonderful, easy meal for a chilly, overcast day.
To make from scratch: Boil chunks of 5-6 peeled potatoes and mash with a little butter and milk Just regular mashed potatoes, make your favorite recipe but you're looking for enough to serve 4-6.

Next, chop and saute a large sweet onion in a little olive oil until just starting to soften and caramelize. Add in a pound and a half of ground meat and three to four roasted and chopped cloves of garlic (or about 1 full Tablespoon of the jarred minced garlic) and cook. I used ground sirloin as I was out of venison. If you are using cheap cuts of beef, drain off any large amounts of extra fat.
In the last few minutes of cooking, add in 2 pinches (roughly 1/4 teaspoon) of cinnamon (yes, cinnamon), the same amount of black pepper, a dash of white pepper (if you have it), and a few shakes of salt and one small squirt of Srirachi (or Ketchup for the meek). Heat on low/medium for a few minutes as it finishes cooking. Spread the meat in a deep casserole or a pan that's 13 x 9, or the next size smaller.
Then, spread over the top of the meat, about 3 cups of corn mixed together (I used 1 cup of creamed corn and 2 of regular corn). Spread on the meat. Cover with the mashed potatoes and sprinkle generously with Smoked Hungarian Paprika. Bake at 375 F for 35-40 minutes, until bubbly.

I'm not sure how the name was coined as the French version of "Chinese pie", but one popular theory is that it was introduced to Chinese railway workers by Canadian cooks during the building of the North American railroads in the late 19th century. These cooks made it under instruction from the railway bosses (who were mostly of English descent) as a cheap and easy to make version of the popular cottage pie with the sauce in the tinned creamed-corn serving as a substitute for the gravy.
click on pictures to enlarge, if you dare.

Allegedly, The French Canadian railway workers became fond of it and brought the recipe back with them to their home communities
However the name was derived, it's good. It's often served with ketchup on the side and maybe some pickled beets and a maple cookie. Or just plain.

Either way, it's comfort on a plate. And memories of the good kind of family, whether related by blood, marriage or simply by being a long time friend-- those people you just like and admire.
ZeroTech Optics USA has added the Thrive X 3-9x40 to its hunting riflescope lineup, offering the familiar 3-9x40 format across four reticle choices and two turret configurations.

How do you defeat enemies with level IV body armor? This is the question the Canadian Armed Forces have wrestled with when tackling the replacement of their venerable C7 and C8 rifles. It’s a question that many major armies will have to find an answer for as they come to replace their current generation of small arms. The US Army has opted for power and penetration with the Next Generation Squad Weapons program and the new 6.8x51mm round. Earlier this month, at a range day in Copenhagen, Colt Canada explained their answer to the question.
If the Vikings had access to AR-15s, things might have gone a little differently. Judging by these images from Viking Brutality 2026 , they would also have needed a good pair of running shoes. Among the competitors at this year's event was a Viking-inspired shooter carrying an axe in one hand and an AR-15 in the other. Somewhere between a historical reenactment, a modern shooting match, and a fever dream after watching too much Vikings, this look managed to steal the show.
At CANCON West 2026, Russell Phagan set up a miniature FAST stage at the Boulder Rifle & Pistol Club in Boulder City, Nevada, so attendees could get a taste of what his Firearms Action Shooting Trials matches throw at competitors. I stopped by the stage to talk with Russell about what he packed into the scaled-down version and what shooters can expect at a full match.
Every AR-15 since the original has relied on a pair of takedown pins to hold the upper and lower together. The X-Ordnance X1-15 drops them entirely. Its patented quick-release system lets the rifle be fully assembled or taken apart in seconds, with no traditional takedown pins to push out or get stuck.
One of the quietest pistols of the Vietnam era had a trick that had nothing to do with the suppressor: the slide could be locked shut, so the action did not make a sound. It was nicknamed the Hush Puppy, and the idea has mostly lived in history books and collector displays. Shark Coast Tactical has now put it on a modern carry pistol and named the result the Shark Puppy.
Hurricane season has reached the firearms industry, and it is carrying a US Palm logo. Long known for AK pistol grips, magazines and soft goods, US Palm is now entering the rifle and suppressor markets with a two-part launch: the CAT 4 Storm series of rifles and the EOS series of suppressors. Both debuted at SHOT Show 2026 in Las Vegas, and both are now available.
At CANCON West 2026, @BallisticAviation talked with Justus Hall of BOE Suppression about the company’s IncoLite line. BOE is the suppressor brand of C Products Defense, the company behind Duramag magazines. Its first can, the Mod 1, pairs a printed core with a serialized outer sleeve. The IncoLite series is fully 3D printed from Inconel 718, with geometry that adds strength where it’s needed and cuts weight where it isn’t. The lineup has three 9mm models, all 1.5 inches in diameter and threaded for 1.375" HUB/Bravo mounts.
Glock 17 Gen 6 owners who wanted a compensated, threadless barrel have been waiting while Radian started with other models. The Afterburner + Ramjet system launched first for the G19 and G45, with a G17 variant to follow, and that G17 version is now official. It comes in three colorways, including black, grey (below) and bronze (above).
At CANCON West 2026, @BallisticAviation talks with Jesse of Wraith Metalworks about the Wraith Modular Suppression System, which builds suppressors as configurable platforms instead of sealed, fixed units. Its interchangeable baffles fit across three tube diameters: the 1.88-inch Sentinel, 1.575-inch Ambush, and 1.45-inch Raider. Users can combine tube lengths, extensions, baffle stacks, and end caps to tune for sound, gas blowback, recoil, flash, length, or weight on a given host. Even Wraith’s pre-configured models can be broken down and rebuilt into a different setup.
I was drifting off to sleep last night and I felt something odd on my belly. A little itchy lump like a small scab except it would not scratch off. Yes, a tick. We put in a plastic bag. From the pictures, it appeared to be a deer tick and a rash was beginning to bulls eye around it, so we ran off the an ER about 10:30. There was no waiting get in. They confirmed it was a deer tick. The doctor said Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever are pretty rare here from ticks (he has never seen either) but to be sure, I was given two doxycyclines and a tetanus shot. He used some lidocaine and a scalpel to remove the head which was still in my flesh. I had taken all my evening medications just before getting into bed so I was on the edge of sleep the entire time.

The legal firearm inside an Echelon weighs 3 oz (85 g) and measures 4.3 x 1.9 in (10.9 x 4.8 cm). Springfield Armory is now selling that piece on its own, which means you can buy the serialized heart of the pistol and build everything around it yourself.
