My wife tells me I am simple and predictable. My passions may wax and wane, but my interests remain boringly constant. Apparently, I am not alone. I recently learned that there is an 80-percent crossover between gearheads and firearms enthusiasts.

I just attended Athlon Outdoors’ fifth Rendezvous event. While there I had the good fortune of meeting up with Linda Powell and her crew from Mossberg. Mossberg makes all kinds of hunting guns, but those don’t hold my attention. I’ve been a cop, a firearms instructor, and a tactical instructor for decades and I want to see the tactical guns. Linda was happy to oblige with Mossberg models perfect for home defense.

Two former employees of First Bank, accused of improperly taking confidential information and trade secrets with them when they left, were vindicated recently when the civil suit against them was dropped.

The art of gunfighting took a huge leap forward with Jeff Cooper’s scientific approach, which developed into his “Modern Technique” of gunfighting. However, like all worthwhile journeys, there is no end. There are always improvements in weapons, gear, evaluating critical incidents and tactics. Gunsite continues to develop and grow with the addition of new classes to fill different niches in the world of personal protection. One of those classes is the Gunsite AK Armorer-Operator Course.

Johnny Morton has good memories of growing up in Abbeville.
