HS Precision Update

Friday, December 5th, 2008

Remington issues a statement regarding HS Precision’s questionable judgment. And here’s an email from their CEO at arfcom. This is the second time that Remington responded to calls for action. You’ll recall they dropped Zumbo after he called AR-15s terrorist rifles and we gunnies took offense at that. And they have once again responded positively […]

Quote of the day

Friday, November 21st, 2008

Ridefast: Some, a small minority, may have jokingly called you Fudds, or maybe mocked you. Your guy, Zumbo, called me a terrorist. Who’s the nasty bastard now? Read the whole thing.

AHSA: Lying about Cooper

Monday, November 3rd, 2008

Ray Schoenke of the American Hunters and Shooters Association writes that the big, bad NRA took Cooper down: Today, on behalf of the American Hunters and Shooters Association (AHSA), I condemned the actions by the NRA and its cronies forcing Dan Cooper out. The gun lobby’s attempt to destroy a good man and small business […]

Cooper Firearms

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

Zumboed in half the time: The employees, shareholders and board of directors of Cooper Firearms of Montana do not share the personal political views of Dan Cooper. Although we all believe everyone has a right to vote and donate as they see fit, it has become apparent that the fallout may affect more than just […]

Cooper Firearms

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

It was reported they supported Obama. Fearing Zumbofication, the story has since changed to Oops, my bad. I only did once and have changed my mind. Update: Not convinced. Joe seems to think he just wants to be eaten last.

How can such a sexy rifle have an image problem

Wednesday, September 24th, 2008

NSSF is trying to address the AR-15’s image problem. Since Zumbo, I think it’s come around quite a bit. And it is the most popular sporting rifle platform around. From WV Outdoor News: “It’s cosmetically challenged,” said noted gun writer Tom Gresham. “It’s kind of like one of those ‘replicars’, where you have a Volkswagen […]

I would have gotten away with it, if it wasn’t for you meddling kids

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

Over at NewWest, The American Hunters And Shooters Association is trying to deny that it is a false flag front for anti-gunners trying to appear pro-gun. And that they are shills for the Democrat Leadership Council. Seems they blame John Lott. John Lott is not the one who put the piece of that puzzle together. […]

Hang together

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

Alright, pay attention. This one is important. One of the epic battles we gun rights people face that is far more damaging than anything The Brady Campaign To Prevent Gun Ownership can ever do is the fighting amongst ourselves. You’ve heard it before. We call hit hunters v. shooters; fudds v. gun nuts; or, as […]

American Hunters and Shooters Association Screech

Friday, February 29th, 2008

You see, they are the righteous pro-hunting, pro-conservation, pro-gun group! The NRA betrays hunters at every turn. At least, that’s what they tell us. Behold Ray Schoenke’s screed at The Daily Kos. It’s so disjointed I can’t really fathom the point other than tooting the AHSA’s horn. Which is amazing, since they have no significant […]

Gun control lobby err safety advocates

Monday, January 7th, 2008

Joe points out that the term gun safety is back. They anti-gunners were big into this term a bit back. It seemed to go away. After all, I’m a gun safety advocate and think everyone should learn the four rules. Yet the press will refer to them as such. And the pro-gun forces will always […]

I am the evil gun lobby

Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

Heh: The gun bloggers made the Zumbo incident national. Now they’ve noticed people actually hunt with evil black rifles. We are the new Evil Gun Lobby.

Shock: SayUncle agrees with the Brady Campaign

Monday, June 25th, 2007

Over at the Brady Blog, Paul Helmke notes a particularly nasty comment he received: Paul you are a Hypocrite and a Liar, Why don’t you face facts. The Brady Bunch is little more than a Mouth Piece for the ACLU, and the Ultra liberal Wing of the Democratic Party. That the Brady Bunch is a […]

NY Times perpetuates gun violence err ownership

Friday, June 8th, 2007

I noticed since the NYT ran their piece on black rifles, that I’m getting quite a few google hits for the term. Be careful though as black rifle disease is a serious disorder that eats up time and money:

Imus and Zumbo?

Gunbloggers in the news

Friday, March 23rd, 2007

Congrats to Jeff, Gunner and Gun Law News for their press coverage on the Zumbo affair! Not a bad piece. As said before, I was contacted for the story. I told the nice lady I’d be happy to chat via email but that’s the extent of my talking to the press. And here’s why I […]

The Media: We’ve sucked down AstroTurf so long that we don’t know grassroots when it jumps up and bites us in the ass

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

I said before that it will soon be stated as fact that the NRA was responsible for Zumbo’s loss of his job for saying something stupid even though that is not the case. What really happened is that a few message boards and blogs noticed it and left comments, sent letters, etc. and that resulted […]

NYT and me

Thursday, March 8th, 2007

I think I have a fan at the New York Times. This is the second time they’ve linked me up. First time was here. Also, I was contacted earlier in the week by foxnews.com about gun blogs and the Zumbo affair. She wanted me to call her. I said I’d be happy to talk to […]

Not the WaPo

Monday, March 5th, 2007

A good summary of the Zumbo affair in the press.

What media bias?

Friday, March 2nd, 2007

I propose a little wager to all takers: The media took the Zumbo* story, spun it, ran it up the flag pole, and got everyone to salute. Now, Zumbo has apologized, said he was wrong and supports gun rights. I bet this gets almost no press and certainly no press from the Washington Post. I’ll […]

One more thing on that thing I’m no longer blogging about

Wednesday, February 28th, 2007

Remember, gun nuts, we’re the ones that are paranoid. Not them. And Mike Faulk says Opposition Doesn’t Mean Annihilation: Ironically, those attacking Zumbo the hardest give the anti-gun crowd plenty of cannon fodder. It’s a shame. Surely his lifetime of advocacy for that which most gun owners hold dear, the right to bear arms, should […]

The rift

Tuesday, February 27th, 2007

Via KDT, The WaPo: Zumbo’s fall highlights a fundamental concern of the NRA and many champions of military-style firearms, according to people who follow the organization closely. They do not want American gun owners to make a distinction between assault weapons and traditional hunting guns such as shotguns and rifles. If they did, a rift […]

I’ve often said 1/3rd of leanleft is retarded

Saturday, February 24th, 2007

Guess which third? The gun-fearing and generally stupid left looks at Zumbo. See, the anti-gunners dismiss outright that one might lose credibility and favor by referring to owners of politically incorrect rifles as terrorists. It’s all about how poor Zumbo is just a victim of extremists and nutjobs. Nothing to do with his choice of […]

Petzal responds

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

To his critics: The story was unpopular with a lot of people, but nowhere in it did I endorse the ban, as some are claiming. And: When I wrote it, black guns were not nearly as important a part of shooting as they are now. We can’t afford to sacrifice them, just as we can’t […]

Fake

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

The Brady Campaign To Prevent Gun Ownership says that the Brady Myspace page is authored by an imposter. Here’s the page. Update: Interesting stuff in comments: You scooped me, although I was going at this from another angle. If you head over there now, however, you’ll find this embedded in the page (go to page, […]

What now?

Wednesday, February 21st, 2007

Michael Bane, noting that the Zumbo incident was a tipping point for gun rights, asks where we’re headed with respect to gun rights. I tend to think the recent sunset of the assault weapons ban and Katrina are why evil black rifles have gained in popularity.

When they come for your hunting rifle . . .

Sunday, February 18th, 2007

It means they’ve already got my evil black rifle. I was gonna write something extensive about this moron but Tam and Kevin already did. Some dumbass who I’ve never hard of but who writes for Outdoor Life says: I must be living in a vacuum. The guides on our hunt tell me that the use […]
