Apparently, there’s some organized campaign to get people silenced by reporting them as spam.

Buy Lasergrips for a 1911, get a free holster.

Richard Feldman has started himself a new pro gun group called the Independent Firearm Owners Association. Over at the Daily Kos, he says one issue is the drug war and let’s legalize weed:

In our zeal to put violent criminals out of business we’ve corrupted our law enforcement community with lure of asset forfeitures, giving rise to financial incentives to bust people after they sell the drugs so they can seize cash and property. Before asset forfeiture laws, standard procedure had been to simply destroy the drugs! This is perverted capitalism in an Orwellian form. Our founding fathers would collectively vomit if they saw what we’ve created in the very name of protecting our sacred individual civil liberty, freedom and personal actions.

I think that’s correct but, given that it’s Richard Feldman, I have my doubts about the group’s pro-gun credibility. I’m guessing it’s just in time to give Obama a fake pro-gun endorsement. What say you?

The M&P Shield comes with both a 7 and 8 round magazine. My S&W M&P9C came with two magazines. One fits flush to the gun and the other has an extension for a better grip. I prefer the flat one for concealed carry. I wish they’d just pick one type of magazine to ship with them. Seems like they just don’t quite know what to do so they do both.

Apparently, the presence of small arms and number of police contribute to it.

Laser wins, but just barely.

DC is experiencing serial hammer attacks. Someone is in custody now.

In Australia, there’s been a rash of shootings. The latest. Seems they’re related to gang rivalry so the .gov there wants to outlaw gangs involved in criminal activity. Uhm, I’m no expert on Aussie law but isn’t that already illegal?

In Ireland, kids just find them lying around.

His lawyers have set one up. I’m not sure how common this is or if it’s a good idea. But I’m no lawyer.

Took the kids camping yesterday then came home to do you yard work. No blog for you. Did I miss anything?

Seen at CrimsonTrace’s facebook page:

Wonder why it’s under the barrel and not a LaserGrip. Is it a light?

Update: Confirmed that the Shield does not have removable backstraps. I did not know that.

A look at the numbers.

A school teacher teaches the class that the NRA says “porch monkeys deserve to die“, along with a litany of anti-gun propaganda. Also, with that grammar, you’re involved with teaching kids?

I was bottling my homemade wine last night and Junior was watching. She seems to like watching the corking process. And she says to me you know, you could probably make money by selling that. I said I probably could but that’s illegal and it’s just for your mom and I. She then asked why it was illegal. And I told her about alcohol laws and how they were stupid. At seven, she then says So, you can’t just make stuff and sell it? I said to her that if you did, you’d be breaking the law. After a few seconds, she says that’s stupid. I tell her that she’s right.

I was proud.

Samsung’s Galaxy line beats the iPhone. I like my Galaxy Nexus, as I’ve said before. And they beat out Nokia in total handset sales.

Androids have been outselling iPhones for a while but that’s only because there’s iPhone v. a new Android phone coming out every ten minutes. It’s a first for specific android phones, I think.

Having solved other problems the state of Tennessee is facing, our governor has signed a law ridding us of the scourge of saggy pants in school.
