Michael Bane

Michael is more and more convinced that in today’s self-defense environment the surreptitious draw — accessing your firearms without a potential aggressor’s realizing it — is a necessary skill. Luckily, we have a THE BEST DEFENSE video example!

If you do not know what a draw from various positions looks like, this is a very bad thing. You need to rectify this ASAP.

We continue our coverage of the Pat Rogers Memorial Revolver Round-Up with some specific gear and concepts you can use.

We begin our exclusive video coverage of the Pat Rogers Memorial Revolver Round-Up at GUNSITE! Plenty more coverage coming in January 2024!

The Pat Rogers Memorial Revolver Round-Up at GUNSITE offers some of the best instruction in the world in the greatest facility in the world!

Only on michaelbane.tv! This week we're attending the country's greatest gathering of revolver trainers, the Pat Rogers Memorial Revolver Round-Up at GUNSITE. This is truly a unique event..this week's podcast is the beginning of our coverage.

This week we continue our evaluation of the compact Stoeger over it’s micro-9mm cousin. Plus, the Taurus Judge expands…at least in barrel length…and a preview of the artistic guns of Europe travelogue.

This week Michael talks about the federal court decisions on ATF overreach rules. He also takes a look at the classic “swarm” attack in Las Vegas that left a 17 year-old dead.

A general purpose rifle deserves a scope that also functions in multiple contexts. This week Michael falls back on his old Swarovski 3.5 -18x, a scope that has seen much use over the years but remains a solid option. Also, the Stoeger STR-9C is coming into its own.

Michael has been working on the concept of a general purpose rifle for a while, because the concept of a general purpose rifle meets a lot of requirements, from hunting to competition to self-defense. The Sig Cross continues to shine, but there are some challengers!
