Remember, they’ve done this before and you probably haven’t

Violent criminals tend to be experienced at violence.

Democrats and guns

Can they really be pro-gun if the gun control PAC is giving them money?

Of course, all the gun control PACs are the same.

Speaking of NY

Man charged with shooting someone because the police tried to shoot him and hit bystanders instead.

They took our jobs

Gun control is costing NY jobs

We reserve the right to refuse service

Well, if they can make you serve someone, there’s not much they can’t force you to do.

ATF: Tattooing the mentally disabled to set up false store fronts

There’s a whole lot of WTF going on here:

Aaron Key wasn’t sure he wanted a tattoo on his neck. Especially one of a giant squid smoking a joint.

But the guys running Squid’s Smoke Shop in Portland, Ore., convinced him: It would be a perfect way to promote their store.

They would even pay him and a friend $150 apiece if they agreed to turn their bodies into walking billboards.

Key, who is mentally disabled, was swayed.

He and his friend, Marquis Glover, liked Squid’s. It was their hangout. The 19-year-olds spent many afternoons there playing Xbox and chatting with the owner, “Squid,” and the store clerks.

So they took the money and got the ink etched on their necks, tentacles creeping down to their collarbones.

It would be months before the young men learned the whole thing was a setup. The guys running Squid’s were actually undercover ATF agents conducting a sting to get guns away from criminals and drugs off the street.

The tattoos had been sponsored by the U.S. government; advertisements for a fake storefront.

The teens found out as they were arrested and booked into jail.

And why are they in the stop drugs business?

Black Friday

Record gun sales in VA.

Nationally, NICS soared but were short of the record.

SCIENCE!

Shooting the wrong ammo out of a handgun.

Quote of the day

PDB: Reloading is probably the most expensive way to save money

Noah’s ark in reverse

Heh: “Noah’s Ark in reverse” where he endeavored to eat one of every animal.

Knives and the second amendment

From some guys you might know.

Sight in your rifle in two shots

The two shot zero. Yeah, mentioned it before but it’s handy to know.

Gun Porn

HK USP

Aluminum base plate for P-Mags

Deer Neck & Wine

Someone was nice enough to give me some venison. One of the bits was the neck, with bone and all. And if you’re like me, you said thanks and then wondered what you’d do with a neck. After a bit of googling, I discovered that it’s a pretty tough cut of meat and should be cooked at low temperature for a long time. So, I browned the outside of the neck and put it in a crock pot with 4 cups of red wine, orange peel, a clove of garlic, fresh ginger root, and some bay leaves. I added some parsnips, carrots, cabbage, onion, and mushrooms. Turned out pretty good:

NY won’t reveal how many people have complied with registration rules

So reports Reason. Well, maybe citizens see what registration in NY leads to.

And they’re probably not releasing the numbers for the same reason you can’t get good Obamacare sign up numbers: there’s not many.

Polymer Cased Ammunition

Is now in production. They’re only releasing a little bit to people who register and agree to offer feedback.

Gun control support fades

Reports the most busted name in news. It only gins up briefly after a mass shooting then fails spectacularly. Also, urban areas now show less support for gun control.

Criticize no-fly lists

Get put on no-fly lists.

We must ban crossbows

For the children. Oh, and knives.

Compromise

A letter to anti-gun people

It made the news

NYC enforcing a 2010 law threatening taking guns has made Fox. Regulation leads to confiscation.

Layers of editorial oversight: what are “Multi-clip gun owners”?

On ATF comments on trusts

Robb is getting the word out with a sample letter.

Joe as well.

If something will make you weep for the country

It’s this.

In Illegal Mayor News

That illegally hired employee has been transferred:

When a gun owner in the Sunshine State started using sunshine laws to get ahold of the communications between a public worker whose main job was actually to work for MAIG, Bloomberg pulled her into the private sector to work for him directly so those pesky taxpayers can’t see how he’s trying to force their government to do his bidding.

And is MAIG faking new members? Well, a lot of their existing members are in jail.

The Glock 41

Well, if you believe Sportsmans Depot internet sale listing, the yet unreleased Glock 41 is a 13 round 45 ACP of some sort. So, what are 40 and 42? Still sticking with my hunch they’re releasing a single stack 9mm. And maybe a .380.

Witness the military state

NORAD adds fighter jets to Santa tracker.

NFA transfers after death

The ATF decrees on NFA items in estates. It’s not new but we were just talking about this.

Prosecuting gun crimes

Fewer federal gun crimes prosecuted down under Obama. Well, they just want to pass those laws. Not enforce them.

The trouble with the law

Is you have to break it to challenge it. NSSF lacks standing to challenge CT gun laws.

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