Some Very Interesting Classes from Tier 1 Citizen.

I have followed Abner Miranda for many years, since he wrote articles for various gun rags. More recently I follow his youtube channel and checkout his personal website from time to time. Today I was made aware of several new classes that he offering, all with the AR Pistol as the basis of the various classes.

The Kit Badger KBAT.

Kit Badger usually has something interesting to consider. Here is a target system, with links to why he did what did.

The beauty of this system is that you can print it out easily yourself on 8.5 x 11 normal paper.

More Thoughts On The AR GPP Concept.

5.56 AR GPP Concept. Gunstruction has not added the new SB
Tactical pistol braces yet. 

I have noticed an uptick on views of my initial post about the AR GPP (General Purpose Pistol) Concept that I have playing with for a while now. Especially with the explosion in pistol brace ideas out there, I am more and more in the camp of the utilitarian use of a 11.5-12.5 inch barrel AR pistol.

In Honor Of May Day.

Something That I Wrote For Another Platform: Fixing The Focus.

Fixing The Focus. 

I enjoy shooting. I always have. I find it challenging, relaxing, and fun. I think the skills learned and acquired in shooting compares to Fixing the Focus in our own lives. I will not get too technical in my descriptions in order to keep this piece shorter than what it could be.

Generally, when shooting, you are shooting at a target, whether it is a static paper target, or some sort of reactive target. Hitting the target is your goal. Next, most firearms have a set of sights on them, most of the time a front and rear sight. When these sights are properly aligned with the target, you know that having the shot strike the target is highly probable. In our life, the target is the goal. The rear sight, which we look through first, is our priorities. Priorities sharpen our focus forward to the front sight, which are our plans. So, when our priorities, plans, and goals all line up, we know that we CAN reach the goal.

But there is more to it, more possibility. Stick with me here.

A Repost From Almost A Year Ago. With Additional Thoughts.

https://wearethenewbarbarians.blogspot.com/2017/05/i-think-i-was-wrong.html

I had thought that with the election of Donald Trump we were going to have a small (2-6 year) reprieve. A buffer zone so to speak in order to finalize what we needed to have done in preparing for a resurgent Left. I think I was wrong. Instead, the timetable has been sped up.

What we are seeing this week is an attempt at a perfect storm to dump the will the people. Mob rule, shepherded by the elites, is always very ugly. There is so much at play right now, with outright fiction being created by the media to cover up other explosive stories, the feeding frenzy of the media smelling blood in the water is sickening to behold.

Why I Was Dark Lately.

Lately I took a short sabbatical from writing and posting here. Actually, except for checking a few blogs, a couple of news sites, and a few consumer sites of interest, I avoided my computer and phone altogether.

Why?
