So, that’s how they do it
So the big news going into SHOT is that Colt isfinallyresurrecting the Colt Cobra, truly one of the great snubbies of all time. Smith and Wesson is rolling out a 6.5 Creedmoor MP-10. Ruger has ditched the .243 in the superb Ruger Precision Rifle in favor of the new hottness, the 6mm Creedmoor (this is outside my pay gradeI’m very familiar with the 6.5 Creedmoor both for long distance shooting and hunting; zero experience with its 6mm cousinread this from the Precision Rifle Blog, which will give you the facts from an expert). Plus the Ruger American Compact in .45 ACP; the military Glocks 17 and 19 on the near horizon; “boutique” manufacturers spinning out new 1911s, M1 Carbines, little tiny concealed carry pistols, fill in the blanks.
Anyone have any experience with this 110 round magazine for a Ruger 10/22? That looks like it would be fun.
From Steve, a go fund me:
The book and documentary are about an ingenious bank bomber who created time bombs, with seven month long timers, in 1971. He planted them in safety deposit boxes around the US and then disappeared, until 1986 when he was captured in San Francisco.
Korean airlines to allow crews to use stun guns to subdue violent passengers.
A Trump 45 1911. This is the second Trump gun I’ve seen. The first being an AR.

Actual headline: Pretty pink pistols just as deadly, warn police
You mean it’s still a gun even though it’s pink?
The Russians hacked into the Ukrainian power grid and disabled power. That’s a little scary.
A list of top Christmas movies that fails to list the best Christmas movie of all time:
He looks at the differences and concludes it’s not made by Colt:
Well, it is a lower end AR-15. And only the receiver appears to be Colt. And I don’t see the point in even having a fake forward assist. Why even leave it on there?
But, yeah, the 6920 is pretty much the standard.
The EU is looking to expand gun controls because Islamic terrorists attacks past.
Cool looking CNC forward grip. I’m a fan of the Magpul AFG myself. But that looks interesting.
Yo, dawg I heard you liked attaching stuff to your stuff so we built a thing that let’s you attach stuff to your other stuff that you attach stuff to.
Gun ownership has traditionally been associated with the right wing in America but the election of Donald Trump has prompted some left-wingers to join gun clubs – and even start preparing for the collapse of society.
It’s a lot of hand-wringing silliness. But welcome to the club, guys.
In South Carolina, there is a proposed bill that will require carry permit holder to put an identifying sticker on their license plates.
Hah. I’ve got the biggest Schadenboner right now.
It’s kind of sad, though, that Faith Spotted Eagle got more electoral votes than Gary Johnson.
There was an actor I mentioned a bit back who was arrested for having a pellet gun. Well, he took a plea deal:
Carlo Goias goes by the stage name Carlo Bellario. He was charged under the state’s strict gun statute, which requires permits for firearms including the airsoft gun he used while filming a car chase scene in “Vendetta Games.” Airsoft guns fire nonlethal plastic pellets.
Yes, in NJ, toys are regulated like real guns.
The Brady Campaign is celebrating its failure. Not surprising. In politics, failure is rewarded. If you’re a Democrat, you fail up. Look at Hillary Clinton.
An AR-15 that shoots arrows. You know what else AR-15s also shoot? Bullets.
Battle-worn Glock mod. I guess it’s easier than getting into actual battle.
