Humans have fought underground for as long as they have been fighting each other, but as combat has evolved with technology, and as humans have built increasingly sophisticated structures underground, there is an emerging next-generation warfare as a subset of urban combat: Subterranean, AKA Sub-T.

Blacked out comms, difficult logistics, overpressure from gunshots, explosives, extremely short distances mixed with intermediate length axes of approach. Lack of air.

We sat down with Ashely, an infantry officer turned simulations officer and discuss what her thoughts on this nightmare scenario of urban combat could look like, and how we could survive it.

He was born blind, so he's technically never actually seen a firearm, and yet knows more about them than the average industry professional.

You see, eyesight is a foundation for many, especially when considering firearms, and shooting sports... and yet one of the youtube channels that firearms industry professionals turn to when they have questions on historical firearm designs... is run by a blind man named William T. (aka Mishaco).

I recently sat down with William (aka Mishaco) and we discussed his perspective and outlook on life as a blind man thriving in a "seeing man's industry".

So you're China in the 1980's trying to dig yourself out of poverty. Your industry isn't diverse, are largely agricultural and you just took a hit fighting the Vietnamese. How do you get out of poverty?

The answer: Guns. Sell them to the American market.

In the 1980's China made a lot of AK47 style rifles (Type 56 Assault) and sold them to the U.S. market. These gave the Type 56 a reputation of the best rifles, while they were considered the worst in other places of the world.

So what is the truth? Where are they from? Which factory made them? How were they made?

We speak with arms dealer Dave P. who's family distributed Chinese small arms in the 1980's for an answer to all these questions!
