We are proud to announce our recent donation to the University of Wyoming’s Firearms Research Center.
Read the Announcement on the University of Wyoming Website Here!

We support their mission and hope to partner with them more significantly in the future.   Coincidentally, our donation was approved by our Board of Directors at the same time the FRC was accepting a large grant from the Trump administration to further educational programs in our school system.

During the Korean War Jeff became involved with the training of Nationalist Chinese irregulars, some of whom were rather small and a bit intimidated at the thought of using a 45-caliber machine pistol. Here he demonstrates that two M-3 “Grease-Guns”
can be managed quite easily at once — with fair effectiveness at short range.
(Some may note that at that time Jeff had not yet promulgated Rule III.) #greasegun

Random Quote:

“If you don’t understand weapons you don’t understand fighting. If you don’t understand fighting you don’t understand war. If you don’t understand war you don’t understand history. And if you don’t understand history you might as well live with your head in a sack.”
