Fighting R2D2

In Florida, folks are challenging red light camera tickets based on photos. They’re winning over 72% of the time.

Via Michael.

Bloomberg on Glocks

Say the mayor:

One of our newspapers has a campaign going to try to get the police department to ban the use of — one particular manufacturer’s guns,” Bloomberg said. “We think all that would do would be to get people to focus and buy more of that manufacturer’s guns.

Unpossible

A trifecta: You can’t carry guns in Cali. You can’t carry guns in a school. And Cali’s ‘safe gun’ registry means they shouldn’t fire when dropped.

Cut and Cap

Sounds good to me, since they’re always raising the debt limit.

Judgemental

Tam is not impressed with the Smith and Wesson Judge clone being decked it out in lasers and stuff. I mean, it’s not like they’d make a tactical one.

And the Judge lever action? That one, though, is actually kinda cool.

30 Clip

A pic. Heh.

Reminds me of this:

From Stuff

Chicks and guns

I find it interesting that Rachel Maddow and her partner’s first date was to an NRA lady’s day at the range. Cool.

Meghan McCain continues the McCain tradition of being a useful idiot.

Young strippers

Apparently, having solved all of our other problems, Hardaway has a bill that says strippers must be 21. This would make them as old as the patrons. I did always find it amusing that you had to be 21 to watch 18 year old girls dance naked, due to our booze laws.

Gunwalker issues

Allegations ATF has allowed weapons to be smuggled into Mexico?

Made me queasy

What an arrow sees in it’s rear view.

Belt Fed Full Auto .22 Pellet Air Gun

Video here.

Middle ground

Compromise with this.

SHOT Links

Para 14.45 Tactical.

Tactical Solutions always has cool stuff. At NRA conventions, they’re the first booth I find.

Anti-pirate laser.

Gunblast at media day

NRA Blog has photos here, here, and here.

Linked this a bit back wondering if it was a gag. But, no, the Mossberg Chainsaw is real.

Sig P210

Taurus pistol caliber carbine. Looks sharp.

Victory in Cali

Ammo regulation ruled unconstitutionally vague.

So much for that

High court denies appeal in NJ travel case.

Magazine Ban Stuff

Some states restrict regular magazine capacity. And you can’t buy them there. But you can get a “magazine repair kit“.

Peaceable Journey

Not so peaceable:

Missed flights only inconvenience most people. A late flight landed Utah gun owner Greg Revell in jail for 10 days after he got stranded in New Jersey with an unloaded firearm he had legally checked with his luggage in Salt Lake City.

The Supreme Court could decide Tuesday whether to consider letting Revell sue Port Authority of New York and New Jersey police for arresting him on illegal possession of a firearm in New Jersey and for not returning his gun and ammunition to him for more than three years.

This case could be interesting. An opportunity to tell NY/NJ that, yes, the Firearms Owners Protection Act applies there.

In Japan

A blog calls out the Japanese press for misleading gun control data.

Probably not the best choice

Live grenades used as bookends.

OC in Florida

Could be coming. I hope they all carry like that.

Another of those “CCW Killers”

Man touted in VPC’s CCW Killers “study” has no charges filed against him and used gun in lawful self-defense.

how to blow up a gun

that will do it. And not just Hi Points.

It’s what they know

Anti-gun astroturf. And lying.

Quote of the Day

Heh:

Smith and Wesson released THIS instead of an M&P10?

More from Tam.

About time

Ruger makes a 22/45 with rails and a threaded barrel.

Kriss Sphinx Pistol

The firearm blog has a look.

Poll

CNN: No change on gun law opinions after Arizona shootings

Why we win

Social media numbers: NRA has 690,000 Facebook fans. The Brady Campaign, on the other hand has 12,347. Even Glock has 123,000 fans.

Why cops need high capacity magazines

Heh.

What a girl needs

Earrings made from fired shell casings.

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