National Firearms Act Trade & Collectors Association:

Recently, the NFATCA took the lead on an issue that could have far-reaching consequences in the NFA and Sporting communities. It was learned that ATF was seeking to create a definition of small arms ammunition under the aegis of the Safe Explosives Act. The definition was being created as an opinion letter and had no input from the firearms community. More importantly, it could have arrived as a declaration that all ammunition above .50 caliber would now be classified as an explosive. New licensing, regulation, administration and the prospect of re-classifying all weapons that used these new explosives were a very real possibility. The fact that this was “flying under the radar” of traditional firearms advocacy groups was troubling, to say the least.

Nice.

Sears is selling Tactilite .50 uppers. Robb notes they also sell some Brady Campaign products too. Heh.

Hope and change:

Janet Napolitano, 11-16-2010: “if people want to travel by some other means, they have that right”

Janet Napolitano, 11-23-2010: We’re probably going to make you go through naked scanners if you travel by some other means, too.

The Brady Bunch is reaching new lows.

Hmm, I think they’re trying to tell us something.

ETA: All kinds of CMMG gear.

Should one wear their wookie-suit through airport security?

And TSA says you’re a domestic extremist? And they are to obtain your identity? If true, heads should roll.

The TSA wants you to know they’re not thugs, which is why they’re confiscating your camera

I’ve heard a number of people say they expect the TSA to find some bogus security reason to ban cameras at the harassment gate. Of course, all their security reasons are bogus.

In other news, the TSA has a blog. No shit. If you’re reading this (and you will), fuck you.

Right in the budget:

Gun control activists expect someone on the House Appropriations Committee to move an amendment today to D.C.’s budget that would wipe out the city’s gun laws.

Les Jones on the local paper’s coverage of a home defense shooting:

Didja catch that? The paper didn’t portray the Franklin family’s gun as something weird or scary or foreign. They called it a “household .357 revolver.”

Awesome.
