In 1986, a total of three million firearms were produced. In 2013, it was well over ten million. Pistols (here used to mean semiauto handguns) totaled over four million in 2013 — so the number of handguns made in that year was greater than total firearms production in 1986. Total gun production doubled, repeat doubled, between 2010 and 2013.
Why not Where Great Britain Used To Be: The people who want the UK’s gun laws relaxed
Looking to loosen gun laws. Probably because they make the news regularly for arresting someone passing through. Speaking of, charges were dropped against the most recent person to leave America for NJ.
Businessman to require all employees to be armed. But, please, someone tell them the Judge is probably only good for rabbit hunting.
State of the art, chest mounted shotgun. Well, OK.
And, speaking of oddity, here’s a knife sling shot combo.
So, the Atlantic says that the AR-15 is too powerful for civilians to use, even though it had written a bit a while back on how the platform sucked for soldiers.
Heh:
Library officials have told Nashville’s chapter of the Black Lives Matter movement that meetings restricting those who attend by race aren’t allowed on public property.
The decision has outraged Black Lives Matter members. But Nashville Public Library officials said theyre following a library policy that specifies all meetings at their facilities must be open to the public and news media.
I’m sure they wanted separate but equal.
The “assault weapons” case, that is. This should be interesting. And more so given what may happen at SCOTUS.
A Pennsylvania corrections officer who says he was the victim of a car accident in New Jersey ended up facing charges himself when he told police he had a handgun.
Raymond Hughes told The Associated Press on Friday that he and his wife were on their way home from a concert and dinner in Atlantic City last month when the crash occurred in Glassboro.
He told police he had a handgun under his seat, and officers secured his personal 9mm Glock handgun while he went to the hospital, he said. But days later, he was charged with not having a New Jersey permit despite having a license to carry in neighboring Pennsylvania.
“I’m one of the good guys,” Hughes said. “Now they’re trying to make me one of the people I protect society from.”
Well, since everyone has a SWAT team . . .
A Postal Service police officer started shooting when he was spooked by a rat in a darkened Post Office Friday morning, sources said.
The officer had his gun and flashlight drawn as he investigated an alarm that went off at the Manhattanville Station of the USPS at 365 W. 125th St., near St. Nicholas Avenue, sources said.
Only the police should have guns.
Took a break from the internet. Feel smarter already.
A good piece over at Joe’s. This was rather surprising:
During the next four years, the number of permits surged by 850,000 per year. Then from the end of 2011 to 2013 the yearly increase rose by 1,550,000. And during the last year the increase has continued to accelerate to 1,700,000.
While he has a questionable past on the issue, he seems to be fairly strong these days. They can learn, you know.
From a defense attorney. The first point, any good wookiee suiter should be able to figure out: Do Not Make Any Statements After A Shooting
EDC. Mine is pretty much the same: Plastic gun, Spyderco, and I don’t carry a light. I have a phone. And my holster isn’t that, err, loud.
Bloomberg Reporter Paul Barrett spent three days behind the counter at a gun store. Not a bad piece. If someone said they were from Bloomberg, I don’t know why a shop owner would let them stay.
So, moms demand something or another said Trader Joe’s banned guns at their stores. Turns out, they just banned open carry in Texas. Of course, they still want us to know they don’t like guns very much:
To be clear, we do not welcome weapons of any kind in our stores and never have. While there are laws in place allowing for openly carrying firearms, we would very much prefer that customers not bring guns into our stores.
Carbine 2016. I have the Burris M-Tac on one of my 6920s and can’t say enough nice things about it.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
