NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit brought by a former interim New York City police commissioner who accused the police department under former Mayor Eric Adams and his top deputies of “systemic corruption” and alleged the agency was operating as a “criminal enterprise.”Thomas Donlon, a longtime FBI official appointed by Adams to stabilize the police department marred by scandals, filed the racketeering lawsuit filed in July.But Donlon said he witnessed “systemic corruption and criminal conduct” enabled by Adams and his allies who often inflated overtime, prevented internal investigations and disciplined whistleblowers.FORMER NYPD…

As shooters, we have never had so much information on firearms, ammunition and the variety of training concepts available to us. We can attend a class taught by a world-class shooter one weekend and the next by an elite combat veteran of the U.S. military. Then there’s online video sources advocating nearly an endless array of training ideas, drills and methods. Let’s not forget standard shooting positions ranging from prone, kneeling and sitting in addition to standing. This doesn’t even touch upon the vital self-defense skills of drawing our holstered concealed handguns, getting in-time, on-time hits on targets, and then…

10 years ago, Ryan Cleckner published the Long Range Shooting Handbook and has helped guided tens of thousands of shooters on the road to long range precision.

From handloads for precision shooting to reading the wind, Advanced Long Range Shooting covers a lot of ground.  Ryan also dives into some of the myths around long range precision shooting. Not only detailing what they are, but…

We take a look back at the life and times of the iconic M14, as well as where it stands today.Retro has been all the rage in recent years, and the interest level in guns from the Cold War era has skyrocketed. Ignoring the nuclear reality of the geopolitical situation during the time period, the guns in question have become something of a cozy nostalgic experience against the constant barrage of bad international news and rampant domestic consumerism in the industry today.Simpler times, if you will.The past few years have seen a growing appreciation for the early War on Terror…

Movies and the real-world application of firearms have had a troubled relationship. We go to the movies to escape and to dream, so naturally, some of those flights of fancy wind up being applied to how guns are used in movies, and the hero of the movie winds up shooting 30 or so rounds from a six-shot revolver without reloading. Nice trick. In the Michael Mann film “Collateral”, Tom Cruise plays Vincent, a calculating hitman whose precise gun handling sets this film apart from typical Hollywood action.

We’ve read that there were often rats aboard ships, but evidently there were mice too…giant mice. GiantMouse is back with the Iona Sailor, a folder inspired by some of the design priorities of maritime cutting tools. All GiantMouse knives have a story behind them – usually a story about a bar (they are a team after our own heart). But the Iona is a bit different, taking its design cues from sailor’s knives – cutting tools whose owners were sometimes forced to break the tip off of, in order to make mutinous actions more difficult. Beyond this interesting “safety” feature,…

(Many of us still remember the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, wondering if we were about to face all-out nuclear war.) When Fidel Castro’s Cuban revolutionaries took over Cuba’s…
