Wow. Perhaps he needs a reminder:

What gun for grizzly?

45 apparently. Good to know since my chances of encountering one are now greater than zero.

Late start

Busy. On AK time. Sorry about that.

Watch where you’re going

Pedestrian sues google over directions. Apparently, their directions didn’t remind her to look both ways.

Strike Force Manufacturing

Todd Jarrett’s gun company has its webpage up.

Door hinge optic mount

Ok, then.

Gun Porn

There’s an app for that.

Light

5.8lbs

Thanks Dennis

We accept your surrender.

In Cali

Open carry ban heads to senate.

Mass shooting

In the UK.

Commercial Squeal, meet woodshed

Bleat

Tragic

Katie has lost her son. I cannot imagine what she’s going through. If you want to help with medical expenses, MKS tells you how.

The R doesn’t stand for Republican

Someone is upset that NRA is supporting Harry Reid. For all the issues I have with Reid, he’s quite pro-gun. And is also probably why gun control bills never see the floor.

iRevolver

Ok, then.

Like you and me, only better

Apparently, the mayor of Chicago can get on TV and threaten to shoot people and shove guns up their ass. But if someone says the same thing to him, he’s arrested.

We’re winning

A look at Brady staff.

And NICS Data.

Notes From The Last Frontier

As I type this, it is 11:06 pm and still daylight. That really messes with me. I have excess pillows, towels, and robes blocking the windows to make it dark.

On the plane, I sat next to a woman from NBC. I asked her what she was doing and she said “covering Sarah Palin”. I said “Oh, are you stalking her and planning on moving in next door?” and she said that she was actually there to do a story on the crazy stalker guy who bought the house next to her write his book on her. She even said that he was a crazy stalker guy.

No one in Alaska is in a hurry. This also, unfortunately, applies in traffic.

Everyone is very, very polite. I say that as a Tennessean. When folks from Tennessee think you’re very, very polite then you’re really polite

Speaking of Palin, the town of Wasilla looks like any small or midsized town in the US. Quite clean, SuperTarget, and strip malls. Not the podunk, hick town I was expecting from the press.

Free public ranges! Well, OK. One. I saw it on the drive.

When you reserve a compact car (because it’s all that’s available), they actually give you a four door F150.

In AK, iPhone beats Droid because I have no data plan that works without roaming.

Despite rumors, I did not kill a grizzly bear in a national park, re-igniting the park carry debate. Wasn’t me

In downtown Anchorage, I saw a vehicle with the ar15.com logo sticker on it. Small world, made smaller by the internet.

The city that Northern Exposure’s Cicily was patterned after looks nothing like it. And Talkeetna is fun to say.

In some of the smaller towns, there are no street numbers in addresses. You just hope to be observant.

Related, your GPS won’t work. You need a special Alaska GPS. Sounds like a scam to me.

The scenery is quite breathtaking. Took a plane ride to a glacier. How often do you get to stand on top of 5,000 feet of solid ice? Or land on it in a plane?

In the off season, sled dogs practice with wheeled carts and I got to ride one.

Tomorrow, I must work.

Unpossible

In Chicago, 22 people shot in 24 hours.

Light Blogging

On travel.

Sentence Enhancement

Possession of a machine gun is no longer one. Must be proven. Novel concept.

Being brown

Puerto Rican man almost deported to Mexico as suspected illegal immigrant.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
