    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    At no time has the SCOTUS *ever* ruled that NFA1934 is unconstitutional, and anyone who knows anything about 2A jurisprudence already knows this. Anyone who tells you that your constitutionally enumerated rights are absolute and cannot be constitutionally violated does not understand Law or the...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    The only practical downsides I see to constitutional carry are that there's a difficulty with reciprocity in some cases, and the fact that without a permit that includes investigation, you still have a problem with the federal Gun Free School Zones Act.

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    Miller isn't going to be "overturned", because Miller was a moot case that makes no precedent. Any citation to Miller is dicta.

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    Furthermore, ignorance of the law is no excuse. You have a legal and moral responsibility to know the law before you take it into your own hands. If you want to live in a lawless state, you have every right to wish that, but that is not the state in which we live, and fantasies of how the right...

    9mm vs. 40 – Is the .40 Caliber a Better Handgun Cartridge?

    I just want to reiterate my point that the requirements of the FBI or other police, security, or military agencies are not necessarily appropriate for civilian use. There is a very strong tendency in the online firearms community to assume that what military, security, and police agencies...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    There is nothing wrong with not knowing something. No one is born knowing everything. There is very much something wrong with not only insisting you are correct when your prior statements have made it clear that what you think you know is factually incorrect, but insulting people who point this...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    Funny how actually knowing the laws and jurisprudence of the land is a "chip on the shoulder". Cool story, bro.

    Not at all. I understood it perfectly.

    OK, good luck with that argument in court.

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    The difference is, you don't have a constitutionally enumerated right to operate a motor vehicle. That changes things.

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    You have an unwarranted confidence. You have already displayed your lack of knowledge of the law and jurisprudence. Feel free to leave me out of your delusions.

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    I'm not going to argue established legal principles with someone who clearly has no background in the subject.

    9mm vs. 40 – Is the .40 Caliber a Better Handgun Cartridge?

    I’ve said this before, and I’m sure I’ll say it again, but the needs of the civilian are not the same as those of police or military. Of the four most popular pistol calibres (.380 ACP, 9x19 mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP), it’s pretty clear that the energy level of .380 ACP is marginal, 9x19 mm seems to...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    This seems like a loaded question. Is NFA1934 a “good law”? What does “a good law” mean to you? No rights are absolute. We have established procedures in our jurisprudence for determining when legislation is constitutional, and where enumerated rights are implicated, the courts apply strict...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    Yes, which is exactly why NFA1934 was passed, because of the tommy gun, in particular. Do you know, history is a thing that exists and can be read?

    Which XD Is Right for You?

    I would like an XDs and an XD Compact, both in .45 ACP.

    Is This EDC Tactic Your Only Option? Would You Do It?

    I am actually in the process of deciding on a new EDC bag that will have a good way to carry my weapon, should I find myself in a circumstance where I would need to take it off my body. By "a good way", I mean an enclosed, internal zipper compartment that is covered by multiple layers of thick...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    The only real problem I see with constitutional carry is that 2024 isn't 1924. What I mean by that is that firearms and other tools that could potentially be used negligently, carelessly, or recklessly are much less a part of most Americans' lives in 2024 than they were in years past. And...

    Is Constitutional Carry a Mistake?

    My state does not issue permits, period. As a result, I can legally carry all throughout Northern New England, but I cannot carry if I head anywhere south or west until I hit Ohio, West Virginia, Georgia, Kentucky, or Tennessee. I suppose, if I wanted to, I could apply for a carry permit in a...

    Flashlight EDC

    My EDC light is currently a Nitecore EC11 loaded with a Fenix 16340, but I'm going to be ordering a Fenix TK22 TAC to replace my Fenix PD36 TAC as my bicycle headlamp, which will free up the PD36 TAC to become the flashlight that will pair with my carry weapon...
