I read that article back in 2015 and it was a powerful read. I have never read Chivers book on The Gun but I'm sure it's just as good as his articles I have read.
I agree, this was a good article. As a former military pilot, I've been arguing the need for a light, cheap, and decently armed fixed-wing aircraft for these very purposes. Unfortunately, it seems...

First off, the term "assault weapon" has dubious origins making it no more than a meme within the US culture. I served 13 years in the military and last I checked there was no weapons in our...
I really want to read this book. Keep waiting for a copy of it to show up in the local used book store.
JMA,
First, before I answer your questions, let me say something and you can take it anyway you want. How you respond is up to you. I would appreciate it if you stop using a broad brush to paint...
JMA,
I appreciate the suggestions and I will try to pick up a copy of each. I believe it was member jcustis who made a statement something along the lines of "I don't think we [the US] are...
