I draw a very distinct line between constitutional rights and driver's training. Again, I am a staunch supporter of training. I am a licensed instructor. However, I am a much bigger advocate of our system of government. When we start throwing away constitutional rights like they are normal...

While I understand and respect that position, I just don't think the government should be mandating it. And I also do not find the lack of knowledge of the law to be persuasive. Citizens are always required to know the law. Ignorance of the law is never an excuse to criminal conduct. If we...

Personally, I am an advocate for training. I believe every one who owns and carry a gun should take it upon themselves to be properly trained. But with that being said, I believe American citizens have the right to keep AND bear arms and that regulation of that right is unconstitutional. I...

Ohio has a castle doctrine regarding your home and car. It is nuanced so I advise looking into the law. A good start is the booklet put out by the attorney general. Go to the attorney general's website to find it. We don't currently have stand your ground but I can see that possibly changing...

I was 5 and it was a single shot .410. I got my first gun when I was 8. It was a mossberg 500. Bought a 10/22 at 10.

I'm a Crossbreed Supertuck user. Bought my first one years ago and now have one for every pistol I own.

Mostly carry a glock 26 in a crossbreed supertuck for concealed. I carry a glock 23 on duty and carry it in the crossbreed from time to time. I've even been known to throw a j frame in my pocket in a sticky holster or carry a colt combat commander, but since my defensive training is almost...

For that type of hunting I love my Mossberg 4x4 in .30-06. It's a tack driver, fairly lightweight, and inexpensive enough that I don't mind taking it afield.

Get as much professional training as you can. Develop good fundamental shooting skills, but make sure to train for defensive scenarios (high stress, different positions, moving, using cover). You can get those drills from your instructors. All that said, one of the best things you can do is...

I like to promote the old adage, you never rise to the occasion, but fall to the level of your training.

I always like to use this example for my students. Ohio's statute says you shall "immediately" inform the officer you are carrying. There are no appellate cases interpreting the term "immediately". However, Michigan law uses the word "promptly". I honestly think Ohio courts will conclude...

That being said, if you are going to legally use Tannerite, 1-2 pounds makes a nice sized explosion (and even a decent crater in the ground). I would advise not using more than that at a time. 20 pounds would be an extremely large and dangerous explosion. Typically, from all I've read, the...

Just a heads up, technically it is illegal to mix them and shoot them in Ohio. I don't know how all counties are dealing with it, but in our county we will basically give warnings so as to not make felons from otherwise law-abiding sportsmen. But here is the official state position on the issue...

I've had back surgery and still carry on my hip. Never seen the need to change. I just can't seem to bring myself to use a shoulder rig. Something about constantly covering people behind me with the muzzle and sweeping the room while drawing that turns me off to them.

You should put the gun inside a regular suitcase (if it fits). For handguns I use one of the metal locking cases. They come with a steel cable you can use to connect to a car seat frame or something else. I run the cable through the rails inside the suitcase so the gun can't be removed without...

In Ohio, the exception for CCW holders under the Improper Handling of Firearms in a Motor Vehicle Statute, which is Ohio Revised Code Section 2923.16, only applies to handguns. Given that, all long guns must be transported according to the statute. The statute says: No person shall knowingly...
