In Russia
ATF is moving ahead with it’s ban on M855 ammo. People are upset about it (btw, what is a gun user?)
White House Minister of Truth Josh Earnest (whose very name is an oxymoron) has said that this ban would save police lives. I wonder how many police have been shot with M855?
This may backfire on ATF and the administration as a bill has been introduced in congress to roll back ATF’s ability to regulate ammo.
Here’s their site. I don’t see a need for one but if you’re fond of heavy first trigger pulls, I guess it might work for you:
Use of a buffer tube on an AK-type firearm that has no use for such an item may be evidence that the weapon is intended to be fired from the shoulder. Therefore, adding a buffer tube to an AK-type pistol, where the barrel is less than 16 inches in length, would result in the manufacture of a “firearm” as defined in 5845(a)(3). However, if an AK-type pistol were to utilize an AR-type buffer tube to facilitate the attachment of a (sic) SB-15 stabilizing brace accessory, a “firearm” as defined in 5845(a)(3) would not be made and consequently lawful to possess.
This SB-15 business is getting silly.
A local restaurant that made national headlines for welcoming gun owners has closed. The owner cites taxes, permits and general bureaucracy.
As a small business owner myself, I can attest to the expense, hassle and general pain in the ass that permits, licensing and taxes on my bottom line and on my time. Time and money better spent running the business.
[Obama] wants to take guns out of everybody’s hands and if he can’t do that, he’s going to take the bullets that go in the guns out of everybody’s hands.
How about a Chrome extension that verifies that “you must be at least this smart to hit a publish button”?
Not just guns. This time, it’s drone control:
Right from the beginning of the article, DHS and FAA held a “conference was open to civilians, but explicitly closed to the press. One attendee described it as an eye-opener.” When one of those attendees (who runs a small drone shop) posted a picture and notes from the conference, DHS asked him to take it down (he complied).
Then we get to the meat of the issue – that a drone manufacturer unilaterally chose to add all of DC to their drones’ internal “no-fly” map. First, of course, that their drones have a “no-fly” map in the first place, and secondly, that “DJI is preparing an update that will increase the number of airport no fly zones from 710 to 10,000,
My nephews are into the hobby so I’ve been made aware of the various government attempts at regulating it. More disheartening is that, at the age of 13, my nephews are realizing that non-elected busybody bureaucrats can directly impact their lives.
Mass shooting in South Korea. Make that two.
Good thing they have all that strict gun control there:
When news of frequent shooting incidents comes out of the United States, Koreans let out a small sigh of relief for living in a place where gun ownership is strictly illegal.
Military service for Korean men is mandatory, but that is probably the only time a regular civilian will have a chance to hold a gun.
The ILA notes that Moms Demand may be lying about their numbers. Even when lying, they don’t have the numbers NRA does.
NJT:
Brady and MAIG and VPC weren’t much better, but through repetition we trained the public to know what they are. Gun Banning groups. I don’t wanna have to retrain everyone again.
Criminal investigation of Lerner’s missing emails underway

This time, in Arkansas:
House Bill 1488, introduced on February 26 by state Representative Tim Lemons (R-43), would require the chief law enforcement officer of a jurisdiction to certify the transfer or making of a firearm, as required by the National Firearms Act, within 15 days if the person is not prohibited from receiving or possessing a firearm by law.
Toting your rifle down the street, wearing a kilt, with dark glasses and hat, you may as well be screaming “pay attention to me”. And you got attention:
I dunno, I’m sympathetic to the cop here. He was trying to be cool until dude got all “am I being detained?”
Well, figuratively since I think, literally, they kind of lost it.

District court rejects a challenge to Cali’s gun roster. Because police have special needs and are safe with guns, apparently.
A quick glance at the Federal Register (Vol. 80, No. 37, p. 9987-88) today reveals that Attorney General Eric Holder, who earned cautious praise last month for a small reform to the federal equitable sharing program, has now delegated authority to the Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to seize and “administratively forfeit” property involved in suspected drug offenses. Holder temporarily delegated this authority to the ATF on a trial basis in 2013, and today made the delegation permanent while lauding the ATF for seizing more than $19.3 million from Americans during the trial period.
Historically, when the ATF uncovered contraband subject to forfeiture under drug statutes, it was required to either refer the property to the DEA for administrative forfeiture proceedings or to a U.S. Attorney in order to initiate a judicial forfeiture action. Under today’s change, the ATF will now be authorized to seize property related to alleged drug offenses and initiate administrative forfeiture proceedings all on its own.
Ice T, in a remake of one of my favorite songs, Institutionalized (NSFW language warning):
Pork is not gonna kill me unless they figure a way to shoot it out of a fucking gun.
MSNBC’s Melissa Harris-Perry said during an address at Cornell University this week that she hopes 17-year-old Trayvon Martin “whooped the s–t” out of gunman George Zimmerman during their fatal encounter in 2012.
Well, you got your wish. Martin did and he got killed for it.
But in NJ, someone’s brain finally started working and the man with a flintlock won’t be charged:
Fortunately, this afternoon Cumberland County Prosecutor Jennifer Webb-McRae showed some sense and used her prosecutorial discretion to dismiss the case.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
