Assault Weapons Ban Round Up – Blogger edition
Blake alerts us to the phone-a-thon to keep the ban from being reauthorized:
To help ensure a steady flow throughout the day, I suggest that we stagger our calls.
If your last name begins with:
A – F: call between 9:30am – 11:00am eastern time.
G – L: call between 11:00am – 12:30pm eastern time.
M – S: call between 12:30pm – 2:00pm eastern time.
T – Z: call between 2:00pm – 3:30 eastern time.Of course, this is merely a suggestion… don’t fret if you can’t call at your “designated” time. Just call at whatever time you can! Make these phone calls Tuesday, and Wednesday too if you can.
You can easily obtain your elected officials’ contact info here:

In addition, call the White House and state your opposition to renewing the ban. 202-456-1111. Though President Bush has expressed support for the ban in the past, he has not pushed Congress to pass a renewal, largely due to US. Take this opportunity to politely remind him of how important this issue is to us.
Jeff has his weekly check on the bias up. He makes a prediction that the ban will sunset. I hope he’s right. He’s counting on it since he’s shopping for a post-post-ban purchase.
Speaking of shopping, Hearltess Libertarian has his post-post-ban wish list.
And, since you’re all wondering, Uncle will build one of these, buy one of these, and either build or buy one of these. And I’ll stock up on regular capacity magazines.
Speaking of mags, if you need them refinished (after all, even gun owners have to accessorize!), go read this.

Don’t forget the Geek’s (and Publicola’s and TriggerFinger’s) new group blog:

Actually, I was just bored and daydreaming…I don’t have the money (or space in the safe) to celebrate the impending death of the ban properly.
But I always appreciate link love.
