The shutdown has halted NFA transfers.

In supreme court news

Woollard: No cert for you.

Alan Gura is disappointed.

They will, however, see if a buy with the intent to transfer to a non-prohibited person is a straw purchase.

And I’m back

Was gone on a short excursion to a local mountain town. Rode a lot of roller coasters, fished, ate some good food, and watched a race involving people riding ostriches.

Yes, it is true

Revolvers are obsolete. Oh, they’re fun to shoot. I like shooting them. And they’re fantastic as a hobby gun. I’ve only ever owned two (one was given to me) because auto loaders are just superior.

Handy to know

May Employer Fire Employee Based on Employee’s Reasonable On-the-Job Self-Defense?

I want one or 4

Them’s fightin’ words

I guess it’s Tennessee’s moral obligation to invade Indiana?

The IRS provided confidential tax info to White House.

I wish we had a Republican president for the sole reason that the press might start doing it’s fucking job.

You will be heard

The now in trouble politically governor of Colorado tells Mayors Against Guns to get out. There were a round of recalls and there will be more. Good.

Out of curiosity

How many of the Spite House’s cuts target red states? This one, for instance. And quite a lot of the park closing are in red states.

And civil liberties came to Illinois

First CCW classes offered in Illinois.

It’s OK to export guns, but we don’t want them here

Governor Moonbeam Vetoes Semi-Auto Ban

Good for Jerry Brown. He’s either for civil liberties or knows which way the wind is blowing:

I don’t believe that this bill’s blanket ban on semi-automatic rifles would reduce criminal activity or enhance public safety enough to warrant this infringement on gun owners’ rights

On that national gun registration

Herschel has a different take: The ATF isn’t competent enough to pull it off.

Airline self-defense

What would you do and how to prepare for some sort of terror attack on a plane.

I’ve mentioned before that when I traveled a lot for a living I carried some items that made an easily improvised weapon. Sure, it’s not whiz-bang tacticool but one smack upside the noggin and it’s coloring books for Christmas.

And when I travel now, I also take my S&W TacPen.

A tale of two cities

Magical thinking that a sign designating a place a safe zone is actually safe.

Man claims he was making a bomb for Keith Richards. Later, you realize the bomb was for Richards’ amusement. Apparently, he’s a nutjob for owning guns too.

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