My responsibility that is. I neglected to give out today’s Gun Blog of the Year award. So, have a bunch and distribute them amongst yourselves:

I was tagged to come up with some number of things that I think makes someone an honest shooter. Well, here goes:
Play along.
You know, I have stray rounds in odd calibers in different places. I could probably load a full magazine from strays in my get home bag. I can go to Walmart and just buy ammo. I can hop online and have reasonably priced ammo sent right to my door.
In Washington, D.C., it is illegal to posses ammunition if you don’t have a gun registered. It is also unlawful to have ammo that is not in the same caliber or gauge as your legal gun. The penalty for holding a round of the wrong caliber is up to a year in jail — as stiff as the punishment for illegal gun possession.
Wow. And the bureaucrats charged with informing people of the law tend to make up laws that don’t exist.
This past weekend, some friends and family headed out to the range. My son, who is five, had only shot a suppressed 22 rifle before but he wanted to shoot the AR-15. Given that the TemplarCustom rail makes it a bit too heavy for a a five year old, the solution would be to shoot prone from a rest. But it was wet and muddy so plan B was I got to be his bipod:
Watch that grin right after the first shot and how eager he is to fire the second shot. That’s why we win. Shooting is fun and it puts grins on people’s faces, no matter their age.

I got one of these shirts this weekend. Fine quality, just like the last ENDO shirt and I think it’s hysterical.
Remember the arrests at SHOT show a couple of years back? Well a judge as tossed the case.
Shelley: That’s an AOW
ATF has a handy guide, which will change at their whim when it suits them.
Actually, maybe. You see, some folks live in a magical state where they’ve warped reality so that that is not an AOW. Maybe. At least a couple of courts have told the ATF that their for classification of pistols with vertical forward grips as AOWs doesn’t fly. ATF’s position is, basically, it’s an AOW because they say so. And the court’s said that’s not good enough. ATF will still charge someone with that crime, though. They, as an agency, make it a policy to disregard court rulings.
A Kitchener father is upset that police arrested him at his children’s’ school Wednesday, hauled him down to the station and strip-searched him, all because his four-year-old daughter drew a picture of a gun at school.
What caliber for mouse? 9mm apparently.

The downside of following the rules and keeping your booger-hook off the bang-switch is that, no, you can’t twirl your gun and look cool. But trust me, don’t do that.
In Knox County, a man is upset that his neighbors are lawfully enjoying their property. So, there ought to be a law preventing shooting. Politicos say that it’s due to Knox County’s growing population and its movement from rural to urban:
As the population nears 500,000, Shouse says many areas are going from rural to more populated.
“I think we need to look at updating the law and make it more for an urban environment. Maybe make a distinction between a subdivision and a more rural area,”
A look at the Ruger BX-25, a 25 round magazine for your 10/22. You can get them at Brownells.
Me a bit back: I hate those family stickers since we in the Uncle clan walk single file to hide our numbers.
So, I was glad to see others agree:
This loving mother has just provided valuable and personal information to every potential predator in the area.

Been mostly away from the internet machine, hence the lack of bloggy goodness. I just marked all read because my reader was at 657 unread doohickies. So, did I miss anything earth shattering?
And my nephew keeps updating me on the number of views of his tannerite video. Kids like being famous on youtube, I guess. Thanks for watching and watch again for his ego.
Hey, I’m the one who gives out the Gun Blog of the Year Awards. Not you.
So, right back at ya. Today’s Gun Blog of the Year goes right back to you Smoking Blunder:
Note bad for a site that is just a day old.
Looks to me like a certain site got yanked. When setting up a social anything, it helps to be nice about.
Meanwhile, parody time!
Not sure it was relevant but this is interesting.
Server move and subsequent database issues. But it seems to be running now.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
