Michael Bane

This week Michael rambles through a couple of his favorite, if odd, pistol calibers — the .38-40 and the .44 Russian.

This week’s potpourri includes in praise of the Henry Garden Gun, more on .22 race rifles and a reevaluation of the 5.7 as a viable self-defense tool.

This week you get an inside look at our spectacular custom 10mm from SDS Imports/Tisas and built by Cylinder & Slide Shop. Wow! AND WE ARE GIVING THIS AWAY! We also expand on the new Rock Island TM-22 race rifle, the newest and least expensive way to get into Rimfire Steel Challenge!

I have to say, if you have a garden (and are reasonably out in the country) and DON'T have a Henry Garden Gun, you're...

As we see the self-defense landscape become increasingly bleak, we must continue to refine our own responses and our own training. This week, Michael has some tipes to help you out.

This week Michael reveals some of his own secrets learned from traveling in foreign, often dangerous, countries and applies them to successfully moving in Non-Permissive Environments (NPE). Also, a tribute to the great Ed Head.

This week we take a look at the Lucid Optics Ballistic Summit at the Whittington Center…and be sure to watch for some long range shooting tips from Jim Gilliland!

This week we visit the annual Lucid Optics Ballistic Summit, a wealth of information on long range shooting in the unique setting of the Whittington Center.

This week we look at the new Taurus GX4 XL, the micro with the slightly longer slide and barrel. Results? Less muzzle flash and a less “snappy” recoil wave, making the little gun easier to control.

This week Michael wades into a very touchy topics — how we all need to behave in public when faced with an abnormal situation that may or may not be an issue. In scary times, we have to take extra care not to escalate any situation!
