Frequently Asked Questions

What are the common misconceptions about AR-15s?

AR-15 style firearms are often mistakenly believed to be high caliber and select-fire. In reality, the .223 Remington caliber is not considered high caliber, and these rifles are semi-automatic, not select-fire. Claims of their extreme deadliness in incidents may also be exaggerated.

Why is national reciprocity important for gun owners?

National reciprocity is crucial because it would ensure that a legally obtained concealed carry permit in one state is recognized in all other states. This upholds the Second Amendment right to bear arms for self-defense across state lines, preventing individuals from unknowingly violating laws when traveling.

What is the difference between the Smith & Wesson 629 and Ruger Alaskan for woods use?

For woods use, the Smith & Wesson 629 is generally considered the more practical and controllable option, offering better shootability. While the Ruger Alaskan is appealing, the 629 is favored for its overall reliability and ease of handling in outdoor environments.

How effective is advanced tactical training for self-defense?

While valuable, advanced tactical training is not utilized by the vast majority of individuals who successfully defend themselves with a firearm. Estimates suggest that only a tiny fraction, perhaps one-hundredth of one percent, have received such specialized instruction.
