Common sense gun safety

To avoid another bump stock type decision

ATF will no longer issue accessories classifications. All accessories must be attached to a firearm.

Racism, straight up

Michael Bloomberg wants to ban guns for minorities for their own good.

Where guns are banned

Where Great Britain Used To Be: Figures show 58 percent of burglaries happen at occupied properties, as campaigners said criminals no longer feared being caught in the act.

California has all the gun control and passed more: Firearm homicides up 18%

Shrinking government

The IRS is being gutted

The EPA is getting out of the puddle business.

As far as I’m concerned, both of those are good news.

Good question

What’s going on at NRA?

At some point, an organization can get so large that it’s a hindrance. Do they really need 76 board members?

Shrunk down mini-gun seems redundant.

An NRA gun safety video from 1946:

The Best Coat Pocket Defensive Pistols. I’ve been eyeing a Ruger LCR for this. Though I don’t really want one in .38 because I don’t need another caliber to buy. I’m leaning toward .357.

Did they give the Mexican cartels gift cards?

ATF tries to be helpful. Hilarity ensues.

Respect

I don’t have any particular nostalgia for the politics of Bob Dole. But as a person, he seems like a good guy. He’s funny and not afraid of self-deprecating humor. He was a war hero. He always seemed to be a class act. And, at 95 years of age, he’s still a class act:

Got a little dusty in here.

Coloring books for Christmas

A guide to saps and blackjacks. I’ve never really considered carrying one, honestly. Until now. Anyone carry something similar?

So, duty to report?

The ATF had a machine gun and a handgun stolen out of one of their vehicles.

Sort of want

True

There will be no reciprocity coming the lame duck congress. And I doubt congress will ever take up the issue.

In NY

A lawmaker wants to snoop through your social media history in order for you to be approved to buy a gun.

5.7x28mm is probable cause to search

An opinion from the superior court of Pennsylvania contains this line:

While outside the apartment, Police Captain Ryan Pudik saw a box of ammunition on a coffee table inside the apartment. Captain Pudik identified the ammunition as 5.7 caliber, which he knows to be armor defeating. He and other officers entered the building and conducted a sweep of the home to make sure that there was nobody hidden inside.

The commercially available ammo in the US is not armor defeating. Via reader Richard who qups: The next cop will see a Glock 7 in the window.

We can’t have your kind here

Free Beacon:

A Massachusetts landlord told a Harvard University graduate student that he wanted her to move out of her apartment because her legally owned firearms made some of her roommates uncomfortable.

“Since it’s clear that Leyla wants to keep her firearms, it would be best for all parties if she finds another place to live,” Dave Lewis, president of Avid Management, said in an email to the household obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The request that the student, Leyla Pirnie, move out came after her roommates searched her room while she was not home and found her firearms. That prompted one of the roommates to email Lewis requesting he verify that Pirnie was in compliance with applicable firearms laws.

Pretty shameful.

EMP

The military warns of what one would do to our society. Notably:

18 months or more are required to replace key elements of the electric grid that would be damaged or knocked out.

Could you survive 18 months?
