If you live in DC and have to ride the Metro to work… and you are concealing; technically, you are breaking the laws. Listen in on why these four men are challenging the law.
It’s risky out there and everyone who wants to be self reliant and not become a victim, chooses to exercise their Second Amendment right and conceal a handgun on their person.
The difficulty lies when the place you are going for the day, let’s say work / office is in an area, a jurisdiction where it’s legal to concealed carry. Yes, within the final destination you are abiding by the laws. But, in order to get there, you have to break the law – by riding the Metro (DC train).

Gun control full speed ahead – but, will it work?
Have you ever really thought about why those on the left constantly want to destroy our Second Amendment?
As I celebrate another trip around the sun, I can hardly remember at time when there wasn’t a move to restrict gun ownership. That is a sad state! Why, why do some so desperately desire to destroy what our founding fathers so miraculously outlined in our Bill of Rights and Constitution.
At the root of establishing this great country, our founding fathers had a strong belief and commitment to Jesus Christ. Much of our Bill of Rights and Constitution are based on scripture and Godly principles.
In fact, I believe there’s not been a time like this before to clearly show the removal of God and Godly principals has brought in and escalated the deterioration of society, zero tolerance of one another and a flat out laser focus on “ME”-ism.
Cam Edwards writes about this in NRA’s magazine, America’s 1st Freedom, some years ago in 2018. Have things changed? Nope, nadda – not one bit.
But, here’s the reality of this ongoing debate over guns – restricting or banning firearms does not reduce crime! This is the huge pink elephant!
Sure, there’s lots of “theories” about how it (gun control) will work, but history is so valuable. Yes, a true case study without debate on the findings. IT DOES NOT WORK!
I believe we’ve all heard about the prohibition era, one problem then was how Prohibition was difficult to enforce. What transpired was an increase in illegal establishments like speakeasies and or bootlegging. It did not stop it – the restriction of alcohol led to a creative work around and increase in crime! You cannot legislate crime.
And so it goes with gun control. There’s plenty of other countries to look at for the result of gun control and it’s not good for the people – ONLY for those RULING and Power Hungry!
Gun control is the way of Socialism, Communism and Fascism. It IS NOT the way to FREEDOM; to personal responsibility, property ownership or how you want to worship.
We are already seeing how rulers are controlling behavior today – through high inflation and getting you used to seeing grocery stores bare and high prices. We have wokeness, cancel culture on steroids and it’s by a small percentage of the population but why is their voice so loud?
Media. We’ve been asleep and not standing watch. We said “its not that big of a deal”…
In my home state of Georgia, the City of Kennesaw actually passed a law that required homeowners to own a firearm… and what happened Overnight to the crime rate was positive and amazing! Arming law abiding citizens is a strong deterrent! Thus, more responsible gun owners is the solution.
Like the river bank gives way to the water and slowly erodes, so to goes our Second Amendment rights (being dissolved) without constant reinforcement (fighting to keep) the river bank hard and solid.
Remember, it’s your right and duty to be self reliant. Check out the NRA’s annual meeting and exhibits in April 2023, we’re in booth #3261.
Never be a victim because of style- be incognito!

When you visit a range, whether your local one or visiting a new range, make sure to locate life saving equipment before the first shot.
I recently realized I had not done this and wanted to share so you can “Learn from my mistakes” 🙂
What’s the number 1 rule of real estate? Location! As with visiting a range, Know your location! Street address in case you are calling 9-1-1.
Hopefully, you never need to use a fire extinguisher or the emergency first aid (gun shot wound kit) or AED. Know where these items are before you need to find them. It will be a very stressful and time sensitive, potentially life critical time and knowing where these items are will help when it matters most.
Plan in your head taking charge. “Tell” x person to call 9-1-1, “tell’ another person to get the ER kit – it’s hanging… (state where to find this kit) and if necessary, “tell” a third person to go to the street to 1) flag down EMS and 2) direct EMS to the patient.
We must remember and practice our gun safety rules.
I hope this helps you to enjoy shooting and having a (safe)fun time at the range.

As we celebrate Martin Luther King day, It’s a good time to reflect on avoiding violence and taking a page out of his life. Taking a page out of Martin Luther Kings’ life. In tough times it takes strong men to discuss matters rather than resulting to violence.
One way, of course, is to avoid it all together. However, if “trouble” finds you, are you prepared and layered up in devices?
Martin Luther King believed we could settle differences rationally. I still believe that today – al beit, it seems tougher these days than those days of old.
That’s why having non lethal tools such as P.O.M pepper spray is a good and useful device for self defense.
Tempers are running extremely high (for some unknown reasons). I’ve noticed that the more stressed someone is, the more likely they are to be short on patience. And, therefore, more likely to potentially have some type of an irrational outbursts.
Take a deep breath, layer self defense tools and be observant to stay safe.

As crimes spikes across the nation, more people are purchasing firearms for their protection. It’s important to know your state’s gun laws.
If you live in Georgia, last year Constitutional Carry was made law of the land. In short, anyone legally able to may carry a concealed handgun without a permit.
Recently, USCCA (the United States Concealed Carry Association) published a clear reference which I‘ve linked here.
