With Recover Tactical’s S-PRO conversion kit, you can stock your Glock, Canik or Walther PDP.Ever since the advent of both the handgun and the longarm, people have been searching for the best way to bridge the gap between the two. The tree created in this quest for compromise has many branches and brought us to entirely new categories (looking at you, PDW). But one of the easiest ways, and first attempts, to clasp hands was simply adding a stock to a sidearm.This makes a lot of sense. A buttstock increases stability and allows for better recoil management by adding more points of contact with the body. It won’t make a [typically] smaller pistol round hit harder, but it’ll make the shooter more accurate while allowing for faster fire. This is why detachable stocks were seen with some 19th century calvary guns, horseback being a place where the small size and maneuverability of a handgun has advantage but the increased stability of a stock is helpful.We see the same trend for similar reasons in the early 20th century, though often with aviation and armored vehicles in mind rather than horses. Along with assorted Mauser broomhandles, the Germans had the LP08, essentially…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! No. 11 seed Texas upset No. 3 Gonzaga, 74-68, on Saturday to move on to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, and head coach Sean Miller’s expletive-laden halftime speech might have been the reason why.Miller, 57, challenged his team to maximize their effort on the offensive glass and not wilt just because Gonzaga is a higher seed and a good basketball team.”Here it is. The team who gets the most second shots in the second half will win. Again, I want to go back. You want to take it or are you just going to say — we’re going to say, ‘Like, man, they seem to always go to the Sweet 16. Same happened to us.’ No, no. If you didn’t take it, if you’re going to be a team take, we got to go get the ball more when we miss. It can’t be one of those like, ‘F— it, we could never get an offensive rebound against Gonzaga.’ Yes, we can,” Miller told his team. Miller impressed upon his squad that if they couldn’t grab it, they needed to keep the ball alive by whatever means possible,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s recent plea for wealthy residents to return to the Empire State reveals more than she likely intended. When a state’s chief executive effectively says, “We need your money,” it’s not a sign of strength, it’s an admission that the model is broken.Her plea to well-to-do former residents comes across as a comedy skit: New York is already overtaxed and overregulated, but please come back as we are in the process of enacting higher taxes and imposing more anti-growth regulations. For years, New York has operated under the illusion that ever-higher taxes and ever-expanding government services can coexist with economic dynamism. That illusion is now colliding with reality. High earners, the very people who fund a disproportionate share of the state’s budget, have been leaving for places like Florida, where the tax climate is lighter and the regulatory burden far less suffocating. SOCIALIST NYC MAYOR MAMDANI CLASHES WITH HOCHUL OVER TAX HIKES AS SOME CRITICS WARN OF CATASTROPHEThe problem isn’t that wealthy New Yorkers suddenly lost their civic spirit. It’s that New York has made it increasingly irrational to stay.Start with spending. Under Hochul, state spending has surged by roughly…

In a sweeping change to its enlistment regulations, the Army has raised the maximum age for eligible recruits to 42, the service announced. Changes highlighted in the memo, which was distributed this week and will go into effect in April, also include the removal of previous enlistment obstacles for recruits who have a single marijuana or drug paraphernalia conviction. The announcement comes as the Army continues efforts to widen its recruiting pool after falling short of its Regular Army enlistment goals in 2022 and 2023 before rebounding in 2024. The upper limit of the Army’s previous allowable enlistment age was 35, but waivers were sometimes granted for older enlistees. The Air Force and Navy allow recruits over 40, while the Marine Corps caps enlistment at 28 but allows hopefuls who are 29 or over to request waivers. The average age of Army recruits is currently higher than previous years, with new recruits entering the service with an average enlistment age of 22.7, according to Army data.That figure, which reflects the average age of active-duty and reserve recruits so far in fiscal year 2026, may reflect a shift from recent decades, when the average age was 21.7 in the 2000s and…

This article was originally published by Garrison Vance at Natural News.  Simulation Models Impacts of Prolonged Strait of Hormuz Closure A simulation conducted by Austrian researchers has modeled the potential global economic impact of a prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical maritime chokepoint, according to a study released in March 2026. The research, which examined the flow of 10,000 tankers between 1,315 ports globally, indicates that $1.2 trillion in annual exports from five Gulf nations are at direct risk if Iran maintains control of the waterway for an extended period. The simulation found that blockages under two weeks would have limited global consequences, but the disruptive effects escalate significantly after four weeks. The study was published as Iran has maintained its grip on the 24-mile-wide strait for three weeks following the outbreak of a U.S.-Israeli war against Iran in late February, according to reports. Researchers warn that an extended closure would not only impact energy markets but also trigger cascading failures within global logistics networks. Study Details and Unique Vulnerability of the Strait The research focused on five nations — Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain — that ship almost all of their seaborne…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Top Republican in the North Carolina Senate Phil Berger conceded his GOP primary race Tuesday after a second recount left him behind by a mere 23 votes, ending Berger’s long hold on the Triad-area seat and setting up a leadership shake-up in a key battleground state.”While this was a close race, the voters have spoken, and I congratulate Sheriff Page on his victory,” Berger wrote in a statement Tuesday after the results of the second recount confirmed Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page won the District 26 race.”Over the past 15 years, Republicans in the General Assembly have fundamentally redefined our state’s outlook and reputation. It has been an honor to play a role in that transformation.”Berger’s defeat is a major upset in North Carolina politics, particularly after President Donald Trump had endorsed him and fellow state Republicans had reportedly urged Page to end the primary challenge.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! If you’re hauling freight on America’s highways, safety isn’t optional. It’s the price of admission.That principle is at the heart of Dalilah’s Law, which the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee passed today.Backed by President Trump during last month’s State of the Union, this legislation reinforces a fundamental principle: only properly trained and qualified professionals should be behind the wheel of an 80,000-pound truck. It strengthens safety standards, ensures drivers can understand and communicate in English, and closes loopholes that have allowed unqualified or improperly licensed individuals to slip through the cracks — making roads safer for everyone.FAMILY PUSHES FOR ‘DALILAH’S LAW’ AFTER TRUMP HONORS GIRL CRITICALLY INJURED BY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT TRUCK DRIVERDalilah’s Law is named for a young girl whose life was forever changed by a preventable crash involving an undocumented immigrant behind the wheel of a commercial truck.Speeding through a construction zone, this reckless driver hit the car five-year-old Dalilah Coleman was traveling in, leaving her with permanent disabilities that will require lifelong care.
