editorial overview

The Mexican army arrested an American on his own land in the United States. An American court confiscated an American’s ranch and “awarded” it to illegal aliens. Terrorists can walk right into America and may already have done so! Unbelievable? That’s just the beginning. Jeff Randall explains this and more in “Border Wars”.

In your own personal gunfight, when should you stand, kneel, squat or go prone? Tiger McKee gives you answers that may save your life.

How do you choose an instructor? Must he be a military or law enforcement hero? “Don’t Believe The Hype” gives you some tips so you can select the right instructor for your needs. Don’t waste your time and money learning techniques you will never use.

Don't miss evaluations of new laser sights for the Springfield XD and Glock handguns, self-powered flashlights and an organized way to store firearms-related parts and cleaning gear. Also inside are editorials about accessories for the AR-15/M16/M4 and Kalashnikov series of rifles and carbines, training, competitions and tactics. All this and more in the April issue of S.W.A.T. Magazine!
