Why GunNews Belongs in Your Mailbox Every Month
In Illinois today, the politicians in Springfield and Chicago have made their priorities crystal clear: they will disarm law-abiding citizens with PICA and FOID while releasing violent predators back into your neighborhoods under the SAFE-T Act. Chicago’s gang-driven chaos now spills into the suburbs. “Violence interrupters” with long criminal records get taxpayer money while honest citizens get lectured about “gun violence.” Legacy media buries the truth, spins it, or ignores it entirely.
GunNews delivers it raw.
This isn’t entertainment or recycled talking points. It’s monthly intelligence that arms your mind so you can better arm and protect your family. Every issue gives you what you actually need to know — and what can save your life.
Real defensive gun uses outnumber criminal gun uses by more than 5-to-1 nationwide. John Lott documents how crime drops as more Americans legally carry. Stories like “Paper vs. Gun” show a Texas woman who survived a home invasion because she had a firearm — not a piece of paper from a judge. These aren’t hypotheticals. They’re proof that the right to keep and bear arms works when seconds count and police are minutes away.
It can save you from attack.
John Murphy’s “Just Get Home” training emphasizes situational awareness and de-escalation that prevent fights before they start. Readers learn to spot pre-violence indicators, the deadly straight-line approach, and how to create distance or disengage. Murphy’s real-world video breakdowns of lethal encounters teach hard lessons: people who ignored obvious red flags paid with their lives. Those who defaulted to trained skills — like the 72-year-old who drilled a church shooter in the ear at 46 feet — survived because preparation became instinct. GunNews brings these lifesaving insights home every month.
It can save you from the legal aftermath of deadly force.
Illinois has effective castle doctrine and stand-your-ground principles, but knowing when lethal force is justified — the Reasonable Person Doctrine, Ability-Opportunity-Jeopardy, disparity of force — and what happens afterward (police interactions, media, the personal toll) matters. GunNews and our training partners break it down plainly so you’re not guessing when it counts.
It keeps you on the cutting edge.
You’ll get unfiltered coverage of PICA challenges, FOID litigation, legislative battles, Chicago’s revolving-door “justice,” and national trends like constitutional carry reducing crime. Practical advice appears too: why pump shotguns remain devastatingly effective home-defense tools in PICA-ravaged Illinois, situational awareness that actually works, and training opportunities that turn everyday citizens into prepared defenders.
GunNews also connects you to a statewide network of patriots who train together, stand together, and fight together. When you join Guns Save Life, you don’t just receive a magazine — you support the lawsuits, lobbying, public education, and grassroots muscle that has thwarted bad bills and kept pressure on.
