Its been years since I sat down and re-hashed the significance and execution behind building, and training with, a carbine. As the most common platform of the day, its critical that we as prepared citizens know not only to set up a proper blaster for our own success, whatever that may be, but more importantly, how to use it. Everyone's needs and use cases will likely be different, but there are some omnipresent similarities, and fundamental concepts behind this that I dig back in to, and bring back to the front of mind. From lights, to lasers, to calibers, to optics and all of their appropriate applications, and limitations, and more, I break it down. There's plenty of myths and questions behind the modern carbine, most notably being "why do you need that?" or even better, "nobody needs that" and we dispel those incorrect theories too. Been a while since I did one of these, but happy to get back to it!
