Kel-Tec P-3AT Review
Bitter has a warning:
Environmental groups are targeting pro-gun and pro-hunting legislators one at a time. They are flying under the radar by taking them out one-by-one. But by concentrating their wealth at one or two lawmakers at a time, they’ve successfully knocked off two so far.
Police say the contents in an oversized purse saved a 22-year-old Middle Tennessee State University student’s life, stopping a bullet during an attempted robbery.
Either way, I’m sure she’s thankful.
We know Bryan Miller says that the reported increase in gun sales is a conspiracy propagated by the evil gun lobby. Looks like those evil Wall Street analysts are in on the conspiracy too. And I’m sure the FBI is also lying when it reports an increase in NICS activity. And based on Cabela’s numbers, it doesn’t look like it’s the hunters buying.

Despite the state AG saying it was illegal, mayor opts to try it anyway. Seems like a losing legal strategy.
Rich: Because I acknowledge that the Bible condemns homosexuality as a sin, I am intolerant, even though I support civil unions for gay couples as being fair and just under the law of man, and even though I drove an hour and a half to demonstrate my opposition to an anti gay hate group.

People say to me Hey, Uncle, how was your weekend?
And I say Mostly uneventful, except for that negligent discharge.
This weekend, I negligently discharged a firearm. Everyone is OK, so no worries. I followed the four rules of firearm safety so no one was hurt. But even following the rules, it can still happen.
A bit back, I wrote of my Walther P22 that I was not a fan of the magazine disconnect safety. I said:
Get rid of the magazine disconnect safety. I cannot decock the pistol without a magazine inserted into the magwell. Why is that considered safer?
Well, it’s not safer. And, no, I am not blaming my negligent discharge on the magazine disconnect safety, rather stating that the magazine disconnect safety led to my actions preceding the negligent discharge. For those not in the know, a magazine disconnect safety essentially renders the trigger non-functioning unless there is a magazine in the weapon. This also means in the case of the Walther P22 that you cannot decock the firearm unless a magazine is inserted into the magazine well. Here’s how it happened:
I get the Walther, and check to be sure that it is clear. It is. No magazine and no round in the chamber. I don’t like to keep the pistol cocked so I set out to decock it.
I insert the magazine and rack the slide. I know have a loaded and cocked weapon. To decock the weapon, I point it at the ground. And, as I’ve done thousands of times, I place my thumb on the hammer to hold it in place as I squeeze the trigger to release the hammer, which will then be eased down by my thumb. Unfortunately, my thumb did not have as sure a grip on the hammer as it should have and I neglected to engage the safety. And I fired the gun. There was a bit of silence and then I finally realized I should say something so I said loudly that everyone in here was OK.
This occurred in front of my gun safe, in my basement. The weapon was aimed at the hard concrete floor (i.e., a safe direction with a sure backstop, as should be the case when handling any weapon). No damage either, except to the padding that covers part of our basement floor. It had a small hole in it. The concrete was mostly unscathed. It looked as though it had been barely scratched. I’m guessing the bullet disintegrated as I could only find a few shavings and a shell casing.
So, even if you’re familiar with handling a gun and have performed a task thousands of times, it still happens. But if you are mindful of the four rules of firearms safety and it happens, nothing and no one will get damaged. Except your ego. That was an eye-opener for me. No longer batting 1,000 in gun safety. And the fact that I felt like a complete moron.
My wife is still pissed.
Be safe out there.
In Anderson county, an Andersonville Elementary School kindergarten student was suspended for having a toy gun.
Ridefast makes a good point. Remember how the press kept trying to tell us Obama wasn’t really anti-gun and we had nothing to worry about? Well, now that they’re reporting on gun sales increases (which, according to the deluded, is just propaganda from the gun lobby) they have to admit Obama may not be so good on gun right after all.
Mentioned Obama’s policy on guns earlier. It has since disappeared from the change.gov website. I wonder if the blue dogs had a say? Anyway, someone saved all the info because Google is forever.
Now, he says that all those articles in the press lately about how gun sales are going up since Obama won the election are just gun lobby propaganda. No, really.
I almost pity the man.
Fred Phelps and his merry band of retards came to protest. The audience just left. Rich was there.
After blaming Fulmer, folks today realized the team just sucks?
Countertop urges you to support Rep. John D. Dingell:
Remember, this fight started over primary challenges launched against John Dingell by Nancy Pelosi because of his ability to kill gun control bills.
Frankly, no matter wjat (sic) they did in the past or do in the future, I’m treating everyone on the Dingell Whip team as a friend of the 2nd Amendment.
I’d urge your support too.
So, with gun demand at an all time high; ammo prices up; people stocking up on regular capacity magazines; and all the other gun related news after this election; what are you going to buy?
Leave a comment. And if you happen to find a good deal, leave a link. Someone else might want one too.
As for me, I got some AR receivers to finish and a WunderNine to buy. And ATF cashed the check a couple of weeks ago so the NFA purchase should conclude soon.
Williams gets it together:
I want to state today, unequivocally, that I pledge to vote for a Republican for Speaker of the House. I have every reason to expect that the Republican nominee will be Leader Jason Mumpower
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
