Arsenal Releases SAM7R with AR-M5 Telescopic Stock
The AK platform, unlike the AR15, can be a bit of a chameleon when it comes to buttstock configurations. Prefer an underfolder, left folding, right folding, fixed, or any variation thereof? As many of us know, with all the options available out there, traditionally speaking, it’s adjustable length of pull that tends to be the lacking variety.

Bill C-21 and Why It Threatens Democracy
For anyone living under a rock, life in Canada is approaching the unbearable.
The country issued more lockdown orders during the Coronavirus pandemic than any other nation except for The People’s Republic of China.
Free thought, freedom of expression, and public assembly, all have fallen at the waist side thanks in large part to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Government.
The latest controversy surrounds Bill C-21, legislation put forth by the Canadian Government. What is C-21? In simplest terms, Gun Control. [Read more…] about Bill C-21 and Why It Threatens Democracy

Why A War with China Looms AKA WW3
Think back to your childhood. If it was anything like mine, you surely recall an abundance of Made in China labels on various items.
Growing up in the 1980s, I often wondered why so many things I used daily were manufactured elsewhere. Like any child, I was curious and full of wonder.
It’s only now, in my fifth decade on this big ball, that I connect the dots to those happenings some forty years ago.
Once a country stops making things, it loses its strength and autonomy.
For years, we stood by idly while China manufactured and exported goods to our shores. Human beings are heuristic creatures. Most fail to see things longitudinally. We seek instant gratification and covet immediate gain. It is wired in our brains and an evolutionary byproduct.
Consequently, with life experience, our perspective on the past improves with a little bit of reflective consciousness. Though not entirely evident to my childhood eyes, we are in the Chinese century. [Read more…] about Why A War with China Looms AKA WW3

High Stakes Encounter
I am a U.S. citizen currently living in Toronto, Canada.
For those who have never been to Toronto, it is often regarded as one of the finer cities in North America if not the world.
The city is booming. In fact, there seems to be a new condo on every street corner daily. But, there are pitfalls to its rapid growth.
Congestion is everywhere and people are suffering.
Mix in the damage of a pandemic, and we are starting to see the costs incurred by human beings. [Read more…] about High Stakes Encounter
