The new (5th generation) of the Kalashnikov rifle.

Even police dogs. Also, it’s a bit unnerving given the increase in police shootings of dogs that the police response to the incident is to talk about what a good dog the out of control animal is and what the dog did in service.

Also, as someone who used to help train police dogs, this dog attacked an 8 year-old and, thankfully, didn’t do a lot of damage. Seems the dog is focused on the sleeve.

Tam and Roberta went. Unsurprisingly, the press account can’t be corroborated by people who were there. Pathetic.

Chris is starting a gunsmithing business. Cool.

Or you might almost lose a toe or three.

The Sig P290 is getting a new trigger. I handled those at the gun show this past weekend and I did like the size.

I also handled the Diamondback DB9 and liked its feel.

Anyone try either of these?

The case against the pocket 9. I know I don’t need a pocket 9. But I’m basically simplifying my ammo stores. I may even dump my 45s.

Smith and Wesson gets Belgian police contract for M&P9s.

Pro-gun story from the UK goes down the memory hole.

Good. It was a pretty stupid idea for a lot of reasons.

Been a theme here lately to show ARs at Wal-Mart. Well, here’s more Sigs at Wal-Mart. Via David who notes No question, “assault rifles” are now “firearms in common use”.

Good question: How did Sen. Feinstein get ATF gun trace data in violation of Tiahrt Amendment?

A bit back, a tea party had their lawful protest and paid taxes on rights err permit fees. The city didn’t charge those fees to the Occupy Whatever folks. So, the Tea Part asked for a refund. Soon after, they get a notice they’re going to be audited.

Details from John. Not sure what to make of it, really, but the case didn’t seem that strong to me.

1911 and ammo. Made of chocolate.

Budget 1911s

I am now sans .380. Moving to a pocket 9mm. I have a PM9 as a loner and I like that I can hop on Amazon and order a holster for it.

Holster hasn’t arrived yet so I’ve not got to try out pocket carrying a larger gun. But it handles and feels nice.

Update: Oh and if Glock or the S&W M&P people would start making single stack 9mms, the gun world would thank you.

They want to fund a fingerprint database. That means our permits are priced too high.

Zippo cologne? Only not really.

How Freedom Group became the industry big shot? Also, they mention some gun bloggers. And I’m glad this Freedom Group Conspiracy theory is being called out for the rubbish it is.

Interesting design for a bullpup AR-15 stock.
