A couple weeks ago in the “Plug of the Week” on the podcast we plugged Mike Seeklander’s new podcast called the American Warrior Show. In the most recent episode Mike interviews a man named Charl Van Wyk who took on 3 active shooters. Van Wyk had a 5 shot .38spcl revolver, and he was successful in ending the attack on the church against shooters with automatic rifles, grenades, and bombs. “Violence is the immoral use …

Over the weekend a video appeared (and subsequently seems to have been scrubbed from the internet) of a competitor safely dumping his pistol in a dump bucket that was resting on a blue barrel during a 3-gun stage, and as he moved from the position the dump bucket fell off of the barrel allowing the pistol to tumble out, earning the shooter a disqualification from the match. In response to the first video, the folks …

Herky jerky is slow, and slow is slow, but fast is smooth. Several weeks back the old Tactical Compact Sedan decided that she had rolled her last mile, and blew up in my driveway (dropped a valve on cylinder #3) and the next day I replaced it with a new car which happens to have a manual transmission. I hadn’t driven a manual transmission in about 15 years, so over the past several weeks I’ve …

Miguel posted an article about a doctor that was involved in a defensive shooting this past weekend, who per some reports was on his way to the Mississippi Classic USPSA match. When the victim was attacked, his pistol was in his range bag. Luckily he was able to get to the pistol and get to work on the bad guys shortly thereafter. This brings me to my question: Do you roll up to a competition …

Everytown has recently begun to play the following ad on TV here in NC: The trouble with the ad is that they aren’t being completely honest about background checks. The ad makes it seem that if HB562 were to pass, there would no longer be any background checks for handgun purchases in NC. Unfortunately for Everytown, background checks for purchasing a handgun from a dealer is a federal law, which isn’t affected by the North …

I just came across this on Facebook, and I couldn’t be happier to live in Knightdale, NC. I’ve heard mention of the “Citizens Academy” that KPD puts on in the past, but I’m honestly not all that well read on it. I’m happy to call Knightdale home, very cool.

Now until the weekend or so, if you send an email to [email protected] with your competition/concealed carry/firearm/tacticool question, and and we decide to use it on a future episode of the Q&A podcast, I’ll send you a link for $5 off a shirt. Bonus points if you record a voicemail and send it in. (You can just record something on your phone, or click here to use Speakpipe to record it) Don’t want to wait …

So, this is pretty exciting! Episode 1 of the Triangle Tactical Podcast released on May 14, 2012, so it’s officially 3 years old now. Yay.

Frightening stuff here. The bad guys clearly had very bad intentions after arming themselves and getting cabling (presumably to tie up the homeowners). What scares me is how long these guys were able to move around inside the home unnoticed. Also, good on the homeowner and his girlfriend for being armed, although I personally wouldn’t sleep in bed with a firearm in my bed, I prefer to just have it handy. (H/T r/firearms)
