    Whats wrong with this world, or... you cannot make this up

    Ummm...OK. I read the whole article. One obvious question was not even addressed. Who the heck is buying her farts for $100 and why? This is a heretofore unknown market to me. I'll sell mine for $50! I'll sign the jar, too. I'll offer a punch card, so you can get every 10th jar for...

    I know the .40 is bigger than the 9mm. Is that wrong?

    What influences you when purchasing a firearm

    I'll probably read about it in American Rifleman or American Handgunner. Then I'll see reviews online. Then maybe I'll know someone who has one. Then I'll wait several years before buying one right before it goes out of production and becomes obsolete.

    Second Amendment Foundation Kicks Off New Year with New Television Warning

    My deep, dark, inner conspiracy theorist has often wondered the same thing. One thing is for sure. If there are any such incidents, dems will milk them for all they're worth. Truth and reason will be scarce commodities.

    Concealed Carry Corner: Three Tips To Make Carrying Concealed Easier

    Good question. I'm not trying to be dogmatic, or tell anyone they're not good enough. Just offering my two bits. Pick what you think is reasonable. I would choose a generous human sized torso target from about 5 yards. Something like the "bowling pin" area of a Transtar II target (includes...

    Concealed Carry Corner: Three Tips To Make Carrying Concealed Easier

    The first one to get good hits on their opponent is overwhelmingly more likely to prevail in a gun fight. The slower your ability to draw, the less likely it will be you. Bad guys generally attack by surprise with weapon in hand. You're disadvantaged from the first instant. If you get a...

    Concealed Carry Corner: Three Tips To Make Carrying Concealed Easier

    POM pepper spray is very easy to carry for those instances when your assailant isn't "shootable" but still needs to be dealt with, and your only alternative is fisticuffs. Pistol, spare mag(s), pepper spray, knife and flashlight if it's going to be dark. That's not too much to carry, and it...

    When Your Sole Social Skill Is Shoot 'Em!

    I think of this kind of behavior as a "social media mentality." By that I mean emotionally immature people who feel entitled to lash out without thinking whenever they get upset about something. They're used to being safe behind a computer screen when they behave this way, and it translates to...

    Guns for Beginners: Self Defense Basics and Frequently Asked Questions

    I just brought this up because one sees the "minimum necessary force" language pretty often, and I think it gives people the wrong impression. Changing it to "reasonable and necessary" seems redundant, since it probably isn't reasonable if it's unnecessary. I think reasonableness implies...

    Lever rifle for SD

    I've always thought a lever action .357 would be the best alternative to a semi-auto like my Saint. It's great for most things a gun might be used for. And if I ever lost my Saint in a boating accident, I could probably still retain the lever gun. So antiquated. So harmless.

    Hey there. Welcome aboard. Enjoy your new pistol. I like 1911's, but have never owned one. Someday, though my list of "would likes" is pretty long, and not matched by my financial resources!

    How could an "arguably" experienced gun handler do this?????

    I was going to crack a joke, but really it just turns my stomach. One careless instant is all it takes to ruin your, and other people's lives. I tell myself that whenever the gun is in my hand.

    Guns for Beginners: Self Defense Basics and Frequently Asked Questions

    A pretty good summary of what constitutes lawful self defense, but I do take issue with one thing. It says, "the person defending themselves must use only the level of force necessary to stop the imminent threat against them, and no more." The trouble with that is how can anyone know what...

    2A success story

    Well, if stuff's going to hit the fan, that's how we'd all like it to go, I think. The homeowner prudently prepared himself against the danger, and the bad guys prudently left the premises when they saw their compadre bite the dust. Now they all understand each other and the world is a better...
