This is a second article by the same reader who asked not to be identified. During my last article I discussed various scenarios for using non-lethal defenses.

Guest Post by a reader who wishes to remain anonymous. You can’t get away from it.

So a couple months ago I bought a Henry .22 Survival rifle.  It is an interesting rifle that packs up into its own stock for storage.  I’ve shot it a couple of times and have mixed feelings about it.  It seems to do exactly what Henry said it would do, and the manufacturer stated you [...]
