When mountain biking began its climb into popularity, the bikes came with no suspension to help cushion a bumpy ride. The development of the suspension fork changed that. Motorcycles already had suspension, so transferring it onto a mountain bike meant the technology just needed to be adapted for it to work. The addition of suspension forks means that a mountain biker could now go faster with increased comfort no matter where they were riding....

Humanity’s knack for finding ingenious ways to kill is unpreceded. Throughout history, men and women have designed a variety of weird weapons with the intent to kill.

While soldiers today are equipped with the best technology, such as drones that can drop bombs while being controlled from the other side of the world, it hasn’t always been that easy....
Photos are a great way of capturing memories of places, people, and events. But they can often inadvertently result in some hilarious cursed images that will make you have a second look. These photos aren’t necessarily “cursed” in the way a witch puts a curse on someone. These are photos that are mysterious, creepy, mind-bending, and head-scratching.

Beyond the typical bespoke AR15s exhibitors, plenty of hidden gems and innovative products could be found throughout the 12.5 miles of aisles this year at SHOT show. Aside from having plenty of time to catch up with my favorite exhibitors and industry friends, I also managed to cover the entire show floor.

Relationships are never easy and sometimes they don’t exactly go according to plan. No matter how much you care and love your partner, there is always the chance you get to a point where you need a time out. This could occur during the early stages, a few years in, or maybe even well after you have gotten married and had kids. That’s not to say a break in your relationship means the end is near, but it may be that you or your partner need some time to reflect on things and make sure you are getting what you want out of the partnership....

It’s true, looks can be deceiving. While this backpack may have a low profile appearance, it packs an incredible amount of tactical functionality behind the scenes. The Vertx EDC Gamut Plus backpack has so many features it’s tough to even know where to be begin.

Ah, the scent of spring. Blooming flowers and freshly cut grass fill the air with a delightful fragrance that says summer’s on its way. But not everyone would agree. For others, it smells like a whole lot of pollen, leading to itchy eyes, a runny nose, and a tough-to-shake headache.

Hay fever – as it’s often called, even though it has nothing to do with hay – affects nearly 25 million Americans every year....
