    Ohio Constitutional Carry is Advancing

    Meanwhile, here in Washington, a ban on the sale of "large capacity magazines" is advancing. Oppositeville.

    In Honor of 2/26

    The classic Sig P series pistols are my idea of "real" guns. So much wanting! 🤤

    Buried treasure in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park

    The title of the article was a bit alarming to me. I wanted to warn everyone not to dig for, disturb or remove archaeological artifacts in national parks, or on federal land in general. It could easily lead to felony charges for violations of the Archaeological Resources Protection Act. But...

    Who is Nancy Tompkins?

    Just look at those nasty people and their evil assault weapons. They have "no legitimate sporting purpose..." oh, wait. But guns are for the evil patriarchy... oh, wait. But gun owners are all male chauvinist... oh, wait. One woman blowing away anti-gun stereotypes. I wonder if we'll...

    Social Camouflage: Blending In to Safely CCW

    Once in a while I may wear an NRA t-shirt, or something, if I'm feeling sassy. But I don't go in for "tactical" clothing either. The only people I ever see wearing that stuff are on Youtube. I go around looking like the old fashioned fuddy-duddy that I am. But I have a 1.5 second...

    Crazy?

    No need to change your EDC just because you get a new G45. You'll have your compatible pair for doomsday should you need it. Until then keep carrying your nice slim G48. Or do you plan to carry your Sub 2000 and matching pistol with you all the time? Then you might be as crazy as the rest of...

    XDM Elite 3.8 or 4.5

    If you're going to go with the full sized grip, you may as well go with the full length barrel. I have the 4.5" XDM (before they called it "Elite") and it's a great full sized pistol. I had no intention of carrying it concealed, but I found that I could very easily if I wanted to in a Vedder...

    Bad bad bad precedent: Remington settles lawsuit with families

    Good point. I guess I'll just have to be mad at........somebody. Sigh.

    Bad bad bad precedent: Remington settles lawsuit with families

    My apologies to you and your professional colleagues who perform a valuable service. I meant to refer only to the subset of lawyers who are, in fact, scumbags.

    Bad bad bad precedent: Remington settles lawsuit with families

    I would wager a great deal there is no evidence at all that the killer ever saw a Bushmaster ad in his life. And even if he did, it's a long stretch between "get your man card back" and "go kill all those kindergartners." It's an argument only a scumbag lawyer could make. Something never...

    EDC mom thwarts attack

    Who knew you could get carjacked on the freeway? Luckily, Mom knows to keep her doors locked, be armed and be mentally prepared to act. The kid is lucky. As for the other incidents, I think the only "never" scenario is to never shoot recklessly and without justification. Each incident is...

    Im beginning to think it can't be done

    The current practice of gun makers providing their little carry guns with both a flush fit and extended magazine kinda bugs me. You buy the gun to be concealable, so it makes sense to carry it with the smaller mag. But then you feel like a fool, because you have a bigger mag available, but it...

    I pledge allegiance to the flag......

    No. E pluribus unum means unifying many diverse elements under common principles and values. You can be Jewish, Indian, Norwegian, Nigerian, Catholic, etc. while still being united as "American" with all those others in your reverence for the values and principles described in the...

    Beto Backtracks? ‘I’m Not Interested in Taking Anything from Anyone’

    Oh thank goodness! Beto is here to save the second amendment rights of texans. What would they do without him? Yes, he does think this will fool some people, and, God help us, he'll be right.

    Washington State bans Sale of High Capacity Mags

    I live in Washington and I'm mad as hell. They're using the tried and true "whittle away" approach. "It bans only the sale, not the possession." We all know how long that will last before they ban the ownership, while allowing previously purchased ones to remain, until they criminalize them...

    Intro and Collection

    Yes. I'm 57 and still enjoy guns I've had since I was a teenager, and my kids will, too. A pretty good endorsement of Springfield Armory, from someone who apparently can choose anything!

    Intro and Collection

    My XDM 4.5" 9mm is my only striker, polymer pistol. I wanted a full sized pistol as a companion sidearm for my Saint. Just because. So many good options. I ended up choosing SA because it matched the rifle, and was in a reasonable price range. Not the most compelling reason, but what the...
