Last Saturday night, May 12th, was the first annual Twilight Run 'N Gun. My last post was about the course, this post will be about how I and my gear performed. As a reminder from last time, I finished 9th of 14 in 2-Gun division, 13th of 22 overall. Though I didn't finish well, it … Continue reading Twilight Run ‘N Gun 2018 I Gear & Performance Review

This article is related to last week's article, though not necessarily a follow-on. I consider my EDC to be a relatively minimalist setup, compared to most people who carry a gun. My personal philosophy is "as much as possible, with as little as possible", and I try to apply that to everything in my life, … Continue reading My Every Day Carry
Every gun that may be used for defensive purposes needs a light on it. Have an AR in the safe in case a burgler breaks into your house? Put a weapon light on it. Carry a pistol while out & about in public? Put a weapon light on it. Got a pump shotgun leaned in … Continue reading Why Every Gun Needs A Light
Lever guns are an interesting category. They are something that basically everyone who's owned a gun here in the US has seen and held, but not necessarily owned. That's a shame, because lever guns are uniquely American. Lever guns were invented here in the good ol' U S of A, and never really caught on … Continue reading The Modern Lever Gun
So, now that we've decided on buying our carry gun first, and it really should be in 9mm, what gun specifically should we get? Well, first off... DO NOT CARRY THE SMALLEST GUN YOU FIND. Please. Why? Because small guns are harder to shoot. 1: Most importantly, small guns weigh less. That sounds like a good … Continue reading What Should be Your First Gun? Part 3, Pistol Selection.
Twilight Run 'N Gun 2018 is a month away. Since the last time I posted about my upcoming event I've been preparing. Slowly. I'm going to update my progress using the same sections I used in the first post. 1. Gear, aka the easy stuff 1.1) Purchased a headlamp, found old pair of elbow pads, … Continue reading Twilight Run ‘n Gun 2018 I Update 1
"It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission". A phrase I've heard quite a few times, but it never really sat well with me. I did some thinking, and I've come to the opinion that it's a stupid saying. I did a quick google search on the term and learned that it was coined … Continue reading Stupid Sayings: “It’s easier to ask forgiveness…”
So, now that we've decided that our first gun should probably be our carry gun (since a carry gun can be used as a home defense gun, but a home defense gun cannot necessarily be used as a carry gun), what should we get as a carry gun? As with all things in life, it … Continue reading What Should be Your First Gun? Part 2, Caliber Selection.
This is a question that everyone's asked before, because everyone who owns a gun has had to have a 'first' gun. Unless you've had a very fortunate beginning, you've had to (or are still trying to) decide what should be the first gun you get. Of course, every choice should be primarily driven by what … Continue reading What Should be Your First Gun? Part 1.
