I love what’s left of America
Chris Cheng gave it a shot. Not a very good first experience. I’m sure that, like bumpfiring, it probably takes so figuring out.
It left the press spotlight as soon as the shooter was discovered to be a retired police officer. Odd, that.
NSSF and the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute (SAAMI) today filed a lawsuit on behalf of their members against the State of California in Fresno Superior Court challenging the state’s microstamping law. NSSF and SAAMI seek to invalidate and enjoin enforcement of provisions of state law enacted in 2007, but not made effective until May 2013, requiring that all semiautomatic pistols sold in the state not already on the California approved handgun roster contain unproven and unreliable microstamping technology.
There is no viable technology for microstamping. They may as well have legislated all guns come with a rainbow-farting unicorn.
A new Economist/YouGov poll said that nearly 4 in 10 American households have guns, with 56 percent claiming not to have one.
That is a sizable uptick from the four-decade drop in household ownership charted by the authoritative General Social Survey. It pegged household gun ownership at 50 percent in the 1970s, 49 percent in the 1980s, 43 percent in the 1990s, and down to 35 percent in the 2000s. The latest 2012 statistics put the share of households with guns at 34 percent.
Or every gun video ever:
Tactical Solutions always has innovative stuff. Their upper for .300 blackout seems to be no exception.
A video of the gun. Also, Tam quips:
Don’t be fooled: If the AR-15 were released today, it’d probably hit the market at close to two grand as well, but the development costs are long amortized and builders can buy parts from a host of outside vendors and that’s why you can get an AR for so much cheaper than the newer guns.
Pastor Kenn Blanchard is running for office. Also, when you loan him a gun, he gets it back to you.
Well, I suppose that depends on if three victims = mass.
Gunman walks into titty bar and opens fire. Hits three people. Patron pulls own gun an critically injures the shooter.
We’ll have enough polymer-framed, striker-fired pistols on the market. But now, we don’t have enough. Meet the Sig P320. Apparently, it’s big innovation is that you don’t have to pull the trigger before taking it apart.
TN, generally, has preemption with respect to firearms law. Now, the legislature wants super dooper preemption: As introduced, declares that the general assembly occupies the whole field of regulation of firearms, ammunition, components of firearms or ammunition, or combinations thereof, prohibiting local regulation.
Gee, I wonder what brought this on? Oh, yeah.

You’d think Chris Christie had personally executed a bunch of people based on the press coverage of Bridgeghazi. Fast and furious? Little coverage. IRS targeting Obama’s political enemies? Crickets. Benghazi? Youtube video. Obamacare? Shhh. Solyndra. Meh. I could go on. I’m no fan of Christie but, man, our press sucks.
NRA A-rated Democrat, Leslie Combs, from Kentucky had a negligent discharge. Says “It happens”. Actually, it shouldn’t. More:
“I was purposely disarming it to put it up because I didn’t like it and I didn’t want to use it any more,” she said. “… I had had it in my purse I carry usually, and I thought I’m going to put that sucker way.”
Combs said the gun was pointed in the proper direction — and away from Greer — as she unloaded the gun, as she has been trained.
“I was particularly careful,” she said. “Rep. Greer was on the other side of the room…No one was in harm’s way. I made sure of that.”
I think you mean unloading not disarming. Any way, I’m guessing booger-hook on the bang-switch or she pulled the trigger thinking it was unloaded. Or disarmed.
It reveals some interesting things about the gun control crowd, including their internal bickering.
Mother Jones is all butthurt that people arrange lawful firearm transactions using the internet, particularly Reddit.
Wow. That’s some stupidity.
In addition to being stupid, it’s not even efficient. You could more quickly (as well as safely) deploy a Ka-Bar TDI.
Of course, I’m thinking the mom here is overreacting a bit. Much like the school would.
Thanks, Obama, for the record year in gun sales.
However, it looks like gun sales are finally leveling off.
Remember how we talked about how the system is not broken? Well, it’s true: In case you missed it: Officer Roid Rage gets $40,000 from the City of Canton
Squash used to silence err suppress err reduce the signature of a gun in a robbery. Though I prefer my Signature Reduction Module grilled with a bit of of oil and dill.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
