A picture, 1,000 words

The PATRIOT Act was always a police wish list. Delayed-notice search warrants:

KEEPING YOU SAFE FROM TERRORISTS!!!

Obviously, compensating . . .

Nevermind.

You’re on your own

And only a few people realize that.

What Tam said. I carry the tools suited to look out for me and the people I care about. And those are for self-defense. Not an assault. I’m not the police. I’m not playing superhero.

New Shirt

From ENDO Apparel:

what! it's lefty!

I dig it. Quality shirt and, honestly, it’s quite soft.

Sounds about right

Heh:

In fact,it’s a felony to con a druggie out of his hard-stolen cash. I imagine that this law is in place to prevent law enforcement from being embarrassed.

Glock Sport Shooting Foundation

At DRTV, an interview with Chris from GSSF. They run a good match. I recommend attending one. Others report a good time too.

Live free or there

Man jumps through hoops to register guns before moving to Massachusetts. Doesn’t take into consideration his magazines are banned there. Winds up with a year in jail over a piece of metal.

Horrible excuse for a human being

Thedala Magee, the TSA agent who groped Amy Alkon, is suing Alkon because she (Magee) suffered emotional distress because Alkon blogged about it.

Their thuggery has exceeded the airport screening area.

Avoiding sin taxes

Without avoiding the sin.

Like you and me, only better

In NJ, police chief signs off on gun permit for councilman. A councilman who is a prohibited person and cannot lawfully touch a firearm.

Meanwhile, Michael Moore reports hiring a SEAL team to protect him from threats. See, you don’t need guns if you can afford a SEAL team! How progressive.

The gun industry loves Obama

So says MSNBC. My experience on who is buying guns is anecdotal but I’ve had at least six people, who’ve never owned guns before, contact me to go gun shopping. The most memorable was the husband of my wife’s friend who had never owned a single gun before. He said he wanted one because he thought Obama didn’t want him to have one. I accompanied him to the gun show where he bought two identical AR-15s and two Glock 17s. On the way out, he picked up a lever action 22 for his son.

Also key from Robert: Americans are taking advantage of liberalized concealed carry laws to buy smaller handguns

Hey, let’s fight in the war room

Rob Pincus on open carry.

But students can’t be trusted with guns

Temple student fends off robbers by shooting them.

Sullivan Law ruled constitutional

So reports David Hardy: It finds that Plaintiffs pass all procedural hurdles, but rules the NY firearm carry permit system constitutional.

John has more.

I don’t see how it will stand. And SAF and Gura tend to lose at lower courts and have success with the big boys.

ATF and gunwalker

A timeline.

From gunwalker to grenadewalker

Ruh roh:

The WSJ reports today that federal authorities are now investigating why the U.S. Attorney’s office in Phoenix — the same office that oversaw Fast and Furious — released Jean Baptiste Kingery after he confessed to providing military-style weapons to the now-defunct La Familia Michoacana drug cartel.

Kingery, who was arrested and released in June 2010, confessed to manufacturing improvised explosive devices (IEDs) using grenade components from the U.S. He also admitted to helping the cartel convert semi-automatic rifles into machine guns. Mexican criminal organizations are increasingly using these military-style weapons as the cartels’ escalate their wars against the government and one another.

Unpossible! The press and the anti-gunners (but I repeat myself) told me they got those machine guns and grenades at American gun shows!

So, what caliber for dinosaur?*

2,370 pound crocodile.

* 5.56, apparently.

9/11 Revolver

Observation from a novice gun writer

Getting paid to write about guns results in a lot of pictures of your butt.

$190

That’s how much John Wayne paid for an AR-15 in the year of my birth. And his receipt is up for auction:

From Stuff

Clips were $10.

The coming age of teh st00pid

Why your teenager can’t use a hammer.

When Junior was just shy of four, she watched intently as I used a cordless drill to tighten some screws. She asked about it. I sat her down in the work area of my basement and gave her a couple of old boards, a handful of screws, and the drill. I showed her how the drill worked, how to hold it, and how to change it from tighten to loosen. She sat there for about 45 minutes putting screws in the boards, taking them out, and bolting them together. After, she tried the hammer too. At three years old.

In Cali

Home ownership is a right! So, there’s a law proposed saying that banks can’t foreclose.

Wow.

But try not paying property taxes.

Nothing sweeter than the tears of a hippie

In response to all the butthurt coming from people offended that someone would raffle of a gun, the raffle did well so they did another raffle.

And Robb wins the internets: Would these people have a problem with a car dealer on Chappaquiddick Island raffling off a car?

Pretty Leather

Tam has a review ofa holster for a M1903 from The Holster Site.

I have two of their holsters and not a complaint. Speaking of, I need to do a review on one.

I must try this

I have a couple of 1-4x scopes and, though I’ve not converted completely yet, I’m tempted. But Bushnell’s new 1-6.5x scope looks pretty darn handy.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
